Get The Look: Vita Liberata's Brand Ambassador Fiona Locke Preps Louise Roe for The Grammys

I remember seeing Celebrity Makeup Artist Tina Turnbow used this on Taylor Schilling at the Golden Globes this year and thinking to myself how naturally luminescent Taylor Schilling looked. It was a truly natural looking glow and I had been hearing about the brand since it launched. I also remember hearing that is lasted up to 4 times longer than other self tanners. If Tina used it on Taylor who has a similar skin tone as I have- then I am going to try it! Give me a few days and I shall write a separate article on the pHenomenal 2-3 Week Tan Mousse...

Vita Liberata continues to be this year’s red carpet ‘Must Have’ beauty product thanks to VIP Skin Finishing Expert and Vita Liberata brand ambassador Fiona Locke. She prepped the beautiful Louise Roe for last evening’s Grammy Awards noting, “Louise Roe has amazing bone structure so I wanted to highlight her natural beauty. I recommend Vita Liberata’s Trystal Minerals – Bronze to contour the face and to give her skin a little extra shimmer on the red carpet.”

Get The Look: Taylor Schilling wears NARS at the 2015 Golden Globes

NARS worked with celebrity makeup artist and uber lovely Tina Turnbow to create the red carpet makeup look for Taylor Schilling at the 2015 Golden Globe Awards. "Pipes" on OITNB has been a favorite character of mine for some time now and I love Taylor Schilling's portrayal of Piper Kerman on the Netflix hit series. Please see below for more details and the products used to achieve this look.

 

Beauty Inspiration: “The inspiration for Taylor’s look was a younger, modern take on Grace Kelly. I wanted to play up her bone structure, her skin and her natural beauty so we went with a clean eye, bold brow and a crisp orange red lip to clash with the scarlet shade of her Ralph Lauren gown.” 

Key NARS products used:

All Day Luminous Weightless Foundation (New for Spring 2015; for now try Sheer Matte Foundation) | Porto Venere Eye Paint (New for Spring 2015; for now try Abyssinia Matte Eyeshadow) | Red Square Velvet Matte Lip Pencil

All products, except where noted, are available at narscosmetics.com. 

Get The Look Created by Tina Turnbow: Keri Russell

Getting to write about the uber talented Tina Turnbow is a complete pleasure for me as not only is she a darling friend but she also enhances the lovelies she has the pleasure to work with! Please read on...

Celebrity make up artist Tina Turnbow created the look for Keri Russell for last night's premiere of ‘Dawn of the Planet of the Apes’ using Juara Skincare and Votre Vu products.

“I began by having Keri cleanse her skin to start with a clean slate.  Next, I took Juara’s Tamarind Tea Hydrating Toner on a cotton ball and applied it all over her face letting it settle in.  It helped to close her pores and prep her skin for the moisturizer.

Since Keri likes a dewy, glowy look, moisturizing is a really important step to the look we want to achieve. I used Juara’s Sweet Black Tea & Rice Facial Moisturizer and massaged it in really well.  Then, I used the Sweet Black Tea Eye Crème and applied it on top of the cheekbones, this really helps to hydrate and give it a nice glow.  I rely a lot on products that have a lot of hydration to give the skin that plump, luminescent look and Juara’s products have those properties that give life back to the skin.

For Keri’s look, we decided to go with a modern, 50s feel. She’s wearing a Monique Lhuillier A-line, 50s style black skirt with a white top so we also wanted to add a touch of color on the cheeks and lips and emphasize her eyes with a slight cat eye and strong brow.

I started by sweeping a light linen eye shadow all over her lids as the base.  Then, using Votre Vu’s Le Joli Crayon in Charbon, I drew a line from the inner corner out with a little flick at the end to give a lift to the eye and a cat-eye feel.  Taking the smudger on the other end of the eye pencil, I smudged the wing a little bit on the outer corner into the crease to extend the eye, this opens up the eye more than if you were just to have a straight line.

Next, concentrating on the outer edge of her top lashes to emphasize that wide-eye effect, I used two coats of Votre Vu’s Eiffel Power mascara.  I didn’t put any mascara on her bottom lashes because I really liked the way it looked cleaner on the bottom.  To finish off her eyes, I used the Arch de Triumphe in Warm Brown to enhance the arch of the brow and give it more definition.

For her cheeks, I used the Vu-On Rouge in Ma Cherry on the apples, and then took a bit of the Vu-On Rouge in Amourette on the top of her cheek bone to give it a bit of a pastel pink highlight.  This gave her cheeks a really fresh look, very summery.

For her lips, we went with French Kiss in Tatiana, it’s a bit sheer and not too strong which I really like.  It’s a modern take on a red lip.  I used my finger and tapped it onto her lip and blurred the edges so it didn’t have a heavy harsh line to it.  Then I took the Vu-On Rouge in Amourette and tapped it onto the center of the lips which popped the color a bit and looked really fun!

We finished off by massaging the Juara Tiare Jasmine Tea Body Milk into her skin because she likes to stay moisturized.  The smell was so amazing and Keri absolutely loved it!”
