Spring Beauty Trends


Red Carpet Style Watch

Pearlescent eye shimmers for spring


As we begin the spring season look for lots of light eye shimmers on the red carpet. As seen here on Leighton Meester who very confidently is batting a sparkling shimmery eye and looking quite beautiful.

To get Leighton’s look start by lining the inside of eyes with a soft deep purple eyeliner. Try Black purple 6L $16, from Make Up Forever. With the same pencil line the corners of eyes and blend into lashline. For a more dramatic look make the outer corners thicker as seen here on Leighton.

Next using a shimmer cream shadow apply over your entire eyelid and along the lower lashline. Use your fingers to do both. Try Lilac Opalescence, $16 from beth bender beauty.

Finally, finish by sweeping a golden beige shimmer shadow into the crease using a blender brush for a perfect application. Try Ambra Eye Dust, $16 from beth bender beauty.

Celebs Wearing Beth Bender Beauty

I SPY BETH BENDER BEAUTY

Evangeline Lilly and friends on the set of Lost in Hawaii. Our friend E-jay and fabulous make up artist stopped by the set to drop off some goodies from beth bender beauty. The biggest requests were the Get in Line Eyeliner Kit, Soak up the Sun Bronzer, and Beauty Balm in Bella.

Seen Jessica and Ashlee Simpson in Dallas dining with their guys. These ladies really get around. Our little beauty spies tell us when dinner was over they each pulled out an Ooh Baby lip gloss and gave their pouts some extra glam before leaving.

Rachel Bilson in New York doing a press junket for her new thriller Jumper. One of our very good friends Pamela happened to be the make up artist touching her up. A good thing since her gel eyeliner is Onyx from beth bender beauty and her lip color was Tallulah. Both on hand since Pamela uses a number of things from the line. Rachel had her Get in Line Eyeliner kit with her just in case, but Pamela had that too.

New to beth bender beauty Broadway sensation Idina Menzel and wife of Taye Diggs. They actually met when they were doing the Broadway hit Rent together years ago. Our publicist dropped off a few thing to Idina a few weeks ago and she flipped over the Get in Line Eyeliner Kit. She said cat eyes were her favorite and has been using it everyday along with the Paris is Burning Lip Gloss that she’s already ordered three more of.

Beth Bender's Celeb Looks - The SAG Awards

BEAUTY WATCH – THE SAG AWARDS

These Hollywood celebs looked beautiful and who can blame them with the Golden Globes being cancelled. They needed a reason to get gorgeous and gorgeous they were! Some of my favorites were Angelina Jolie, Andrea Bowen from Desperate Housewives and Marion Cotillard from La Vie En Rose. Make up artists and hair stylists worked overtime to get these ladies to the red carpet on time.

Andrea Bowen looked beautiful with her hair swept up and away from her face. Her make up was flawless and her perfectly groomed brows and sultry smoky eyes took front and center.

To get Andrea’s look start with the eyes first. Andrea went for a more dramatic smoky eye using colors in brown and amber shimmers. Her eyes were lined top and bottom with a black gel eyeliner and set with a bit of shadow for a softer look.

Start by applying color to the entire eyelid area with an eyeshadow brush and blending into the crease as seen here. If you have a Get in Line Eyeliner and Stencil Kit you can use the smoky eye template to create the shape before blending into the crease of eye. Don’t worry about concealer until the eyes are finished. I like to mix both colors before applying to the eye. Try Brown Sugar and Ambra Eye Dust, $16 at bettesboutique.com.

To finish the smoky eyes, with an eyeshadow brush apply a lighter shade to the brow bone making sure to blend color well. A great base color for this is Bobbi Brown’s Champagne Shimmer Wash Eyeshadow, $19 at Bobbi Brown.

Next take your black gel eyeliner and with a tapered or straight edge eyeliner brush carefully tap into the lash line as you line the eye. Extend the line out as seen here on Andrea and finish by lining underneath so that both bottom and top liner meet at the outer eye. As you get closer to the center of eye start to make the line thinner and blend into lash line.

Take a bit of Ambra eye dust with an eyeshadow brush and sweep under the eye to soften the line and give it a more dramatic look. Our new favorite mascara is Fiberwig but a good black mascara will do just fine. Add two coats and make sure to coat each lash for maximum lash appeal.

Clean up any mess underneath the eyes with a bit of eye cream and a Q-tip. Then apply concealer. For a flawless face add a bit of tinted moisturizer or a water based foundation. Use a sponge for more coverage and a brush for a more sheer finish. Try Vincent Longo’s Light Canvas Tinted Moisturizer, $38 or his Liquid Canvas Dew Finish Foundation, $48.50 both fabulous and available at vincentlongo.com.

On the cheeks a little cream blush in either a pink or peach tone adds just the right amount of color without over doing it. Try Kitty or Blushing Bride, $18 and both from bethbenderbeauty.com.

Stick to a light shade on the lips as well. Try Afterglow Lip Enhancing Gloss, $18 from Smashbox Cosmetics. It’s the perfect combination of a pink/peach gloss and has great shine.

Now go get your celeb look on ladies! Stay tuned for more SAG Award Celeb looks.

Sultry Smoky Eyes and Fushia Lips

keira-knightley-fushia-lips.jpg

Kiera Knightley’s smoky eyes look gorgeous and her fushia lips are giving them a run for their money. This latest incarnation of the bold red lip but with cooler tones looks powerful and oh so sweet!

To get these pretty lips like Keira, Beth suggests smiling while you apply your lip color. It stretches the lip and allows you to coat the entire surface exposing every furrow to be filled in with pigment.

Love her smoky eyes? We do too. For those of you who haven’t yet mastered the smoky eye or just don’t have the time to spend in front of the mirror, Beth suggests using her Get in Line Eyeliner and Stencil Kit. Create smoky eyes in minutes as seen here on Keira Knightley.

Attention Getting Eyes From Beth Bender & Cover Girl

Last week when I returned home from New York I got a last minute call from a client who was attending an important party and needed me to make her beautiful. I was on my way to Big Bear for New Years and didn't have my full kit with me but luckily had everything I needed except a mascara.
For any of you who have been reading our beauty blogs then you know how picky I am about mascara. Shu Uemura, Prescriptives and Dior are in the top three but they will now be joined by Covergirls Lash Blast Mascara which saved me this weekend and is the first over the counter mascara that actually does what it says.
While skimming through this months Lucky Magazine at CVS I happened to see a review from one of the beauty editors on Lash Blast. She said that she could not believe how amazing her lashes looked and for the money ($7.99) I was willing to give it a try.

I grabbed two tubes, and was off to work. Instead of the usual cat eye that my client loved, tonight she was all about the smoky eye. We decided to do a smoky eye in plum and mix in a medium purple for shading. I used All About me Eye Dust and a touch of Love Candy for shading and blending. I used her Get In Line Eyeliner kit to get the perfect smoky eye shape and perfect bottom eyeliner. Once the eyes were done we finished with the Lash Blast Mascara and wow!! Her lashes were long, full and totally maxed out like they promised.

Cover Girls Lash Blast Mascara, available at CVS, Target, Kmart, Ulta and most drugstores

I took a tube with me to Big Bear and someone actually thought I was wearing false lashes. The brush is amazing and it doesn't clump when you are applying to your lashes. I think Cover Girl may have something here and for $7.99 you may want to stock up because once the word gets out they won't be able to keep this in stock.
