Ashley Green makeup at 2011 Teen Choice Awards
Face
“The Teen Choice Awards is a daytime event which means the red carpet is hot. I used foundation and concealer sparingly, keeping the skin as fresh and light as possible. On Ashley, I applied mark Min-A-Real Cream-To-Powder Foundation with a brush and then blended it with my fingers. Next, I applied mark Conceal For Real Long-Lasting Hook Up Concealer under Ashley’s eyes. To lightly enhance the bronze in her natural skin tone, I applied mark Bronze Pro Bronzing Powder to her temples, under the cheekbones and under the jaw line.”

Eyes
“I applied a sheer wash of mark I-Mark Custom Pick Eyeshadow in Tiki to Ashley’s lids, blending just over the natural crease and extending outward to open and elongate her eyes. I continued with Tiki under the bottom lashes to really intensify Ashley’s blue eyes. Next, for a hint of nude shine, I added the Gold Vert shade from the mark Keep It Going Longwear Eyeliner & Shadow Iconic duo to her brow bones. To define and elongate the lash line, I lined her upper eyelids with mark No Place to Run Longwear Eyeliner in Jet Set. For added depth, I used mark On The Edge Hook Up Liquid Eyeliner in Cleo at the very base of the lashes. For full, feathery lashes I applied a few generous coats of mark Lash All You Want High-Volume Mascara in Black.”

Cheeks
“I used mark Good Glowing Custom Pick Powder Blush in After Glo on the apples of Ashley’s cheeks for a soft healthy flush. As a highlighter, I added a touch of mark Glowdacious Illuminating Powder to the peak of her cheekbones and down the center of her nose to give her skin a luminous glow”

Lips
“I used my fingers to stain Ashley’s lips with mark Lipclick Full Color Lipstick in Whiney, followed by mark Lipclick SPF 15 Color Shine Lipstick in Glama on top.”

“To even out Kayley’s skin tone, I applied mark Min-A-Real Cream-To-Powder Foundation. Then, to brighten her eyes, I used mark Get Bright Hook Up Highlighter in Golden. Lastly, I used mark Good Riddance Hook Up Concealer to cover any imperfections.”

“I started by applying mark Please Hold Eye Primer to Kayley’s lids. Next, I applied mark I-Mark Custom Pick Eyeshadow in Whisper under her brow bones for a matte highlight, followed by mark I-Mark Custom Pick Eyeshadow in Latte to the crease of her lids. Then, I used the grey color from mark Keep It Going Longwear Eyeliner & Shadow in Industria on the outside of her lids and underneath the lash lines. I smudged the color and set it with the silver color from mark On The Dot Eye Color Compact. I then used mark No Place To Run Longwear Eyeliner in Jet Set to rim her eyes and coated the bottom and top lashes with mark Lash All You Want High Volume Mascara in Black. I also did a nice tight line on the upper lid with mark Get In Line Hook Up Liquid Waterproof Eyeliner in Painted Black. I refined the look by using mark Brow Factor Hook Up Clear Brow Gel.”

Want the longevity of a gel eyeliner but the ease of a pencil? Then check out Taiwanese-based Jealousness Waterproof Gel Eyeliner, which has already stirred up quite some buzz in Asia!

Jealousness Gel Eyeliner

With a cute pink and gold packaging, the Waterproof Gel Eyeliner boasts a formula that is both waterproof and smudgeproof. It measures roughly 12.5cm long, which is a little shorter than MAC eyeliners.

There are 8 colors to choose from, including your regular black and brown in both cream and shimmer finishes, along with white, purple, silver and navy.

I was sent the Diamond Heart and Electric Eye Gift Box Set to try out, which contains a sharpener and 3 colors:

BKS Diamond Black, an intense black with tiny specks of gold.
BK Smoked Black, a charcoal with tiny shimmer.
BNS Sparkling Brown, a chocolate brown with tiny specks of gold.

The colors are all versatile and will work on any eye color. I like using BKS and BK along the upper lashline, while BNS is perfect on the lower lid for a bit of definition without being harsh. They are also nicely pigmented, with my only gripe being that the glitter did not show up as much I wanted it to.

Thanks to its gel core, the pencil has an uber soft texture. It applies smoothly without scratching my eye and is easy to use, even for beginners.

The pencils are also truly waterproof. Once the color sets, it will not budge even if you run water over it. On my dry skin, it also manages to stay on all day until I remove it with an oil-based remover. But on a friend who has oilier skin, the color did seem to migrate a little after a few hours.

Onto pictures of me wearing the different colors:

Jealousness Waterproof Gel Eyeliner is available in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Sasa.com for $13 each.

In fantasy movie “Sucker Punch”, lead makeup artist Rosalina Da Silva created some very droolicious makeup looks that involved a lot of “glamour, color, lashes, glitter and crystals”. My favorite out of them all? Babydoll, played by Emily Browning.

Sucker Punch Babydoll makeup tutorial

Inspired by Brigitte Bardot with a splash of Anime characters, Babydoll’s look is “sweet, innocent but at the same time very fearless” and all about a 60s eyeliner, long-full lashes and nude lips.

Face
To get Babydoll’s smooth, dewy skin, Rosalina airbrushed various brands of foundations – Armani, Kevin Aucoin, Kett and Kryolan – on. For every day, just use a foundation with a dewy finish and spray your face with MAC Fix+.

Eyes
The eyes are definitely my favorite part of this look. Start by applying a shimmery eyeshadow all over the eyelid. Darken the crease with a dark brown color. Using a black liquid or gel eyeliner (MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack was used on set), draw a thick line along the upper lashline and finish with a flick at the outer corner. Apply several coats of black mascara and a pair of thick fake lashes (Emily wore 3 pairs in the movie) on top. Finish by dabbing a highlighting color right by the tear duct to really create that doe-eyed look.

Cheeks
Rosy pink cheeks help add to the innocence of Babydoll’s look. Smile big before sweeping a pink blush on the apples. Dab a highlighting color right on top of the apples to really make them pop.

Lips
Run a lip pencil along your lip line for a defined shape. Apply a lipstick that matches with your blush and top with a clear gloss.
