Quick Beauty Tips For Hollywood Eyes

GET THE LOOK: Thick Cleopatra like eyeliner goes well with smoky eyes, but if you want to subtly simmer, try a gradually thinning line, seen here on Angelina Jolie. Use a gel liner to draw a thin rim along upper lashlines. Try Onyx from beth bender beauty. Go over the outer half of each eye one more time, and extend slightly beyond the eye.

INSIDER TRICK: The secret to this look: Line the bottom corner of each eye to accentuate the outer edge and create an exotic almond shape. If done correctly, outer corners will look like a sideways capital Y.

.

Ashlee Simpson and Scarlett Johansson love Onyx Gel Liner from beth bender beauty.

You’ll be purring perfect cat eyes all day long. For purrfect cat eyes using a powder shadow use the Get in Line Stencil kit. Available at bettesboutique.com.

Sultry Cat Eyes Please!

I want Angelina’s sultry cat eyes

Who doesn’t love this look? Every time I see Angelina sporting such beautiful eye makeup it inspires me all over again and I realize just how much I love a cat eye.

You can have sexy cat eyes just like Angelina when you use the Get in Line Stencil Kit, $36 at bethbender.com. Women buy this kit just for the cat eyes only to find out that the kit does a smokin’ smoky eye too!

Celebrity Holiday Looks

Scarlett’s Sexy Holiday Look

This is such a beautiful look anytime. Scarlett’s skin is glowing and her metallic silver shadow is the perfect shade to compliment her soft peach cheeks and sheer but very shiny lips.

Make-up artist Beth Bender suggests adding a few lashes to the ends of each eye for even more dazzle as seen here on Scarlett.

To get this look start by applying a silver shadow directly onto the eyelid. Try Double-o-Silver, $16 at bettesboutique.com. It goes on easy and looks even more amazing when you dampen your brush first before applying. You can leave the brow bone alone or add a touch of light base shadow to highlight.

To get perfect eyeliner use your top liner stencil and hold in place while brushing your eye shadow along the line. Use a dark charcoal shadow and dampen the brush first for a darker line. Remove top eyeliner stencil and repeat on the other eye.

If you prefer you can use a Gel Liner instead of a powder to line the eyes as seen here. Try Onyx, $18 at BethBender Beauty.com. To finish the eyes add a few lash clusters to the ends of each eye. When the glue has dried, usually in a minute or two, curl your lashes and apply two coats of black mascara. Try Here to Stay, $19.50 at prescriptives.com.

On the cheeks use a light peach blush and apply to the apple of cheeks blending up along cheek bones and into hairline. Try Orgasm Powder Blush from Nars. If you prefer a cream instead of powder, try Scarlett’s new fav, Kitty Cream Blush, $18 at Beth Bender Beauty.

Keep the lips shiny and sheer with just a bit of color. Try Petal Lip Glace, $20 from Laura Mercier. If you need a little shimmer try Chasing the Cash Liquid Lip color, a favorite of Scarlett’s and Jessica Alba, $16 at Beth Bender Beauty.

Happy Holidays!

Dramatic Eyes For The Holidays

Ashlee Simpson does a soft smoky eye that sizzles!

This little lady flatters her fair complexion by creating a soft update on the smoky eye. The key is to dust a brown shadow around the whole lash line as seen here and then apply a black kohl liner on the inside rim of eye. Concentrate on the outer part of eye going a little heavier towards the end of eye as seen on Ashlee.

Try Brown Sugar eye dust, $16 at bettesboutique, infused with flecks of green and gold shimmer for dazzling eyes anytime. For easy eyeliner and smoky eyes that look great do what Ashlee and Jessica Simpson do and try the Get in Line Stencil kit. No more guessing. Step by step directions for smoky eyes that look hot and everything you need to create them in minutes.

Katie Holmes Does A Sultry Smoky Eye

Katie Holmes always looks great, whether she's running around with baby Suri or walking the red carpet her beauty style is working. Her recent smoldering eyes and pale lips as seen here inspired us once again to share our beauty tips and let you in on the best way to get this look.

Start with perfecting the skin using Liquid Canvas Healthy Fluid Foundation, $48.50 from Vincent Longo. Apply with a brush for light coverage and a sponge for medium to full coverage.

For flawless eyes begin by applying a darker color to the eyelid using a smoky eye stencil for the perfect shape. Try Get in Line from Beth Bender Beauty. Hold the stencil over the eye and using your brush fill in with color. Remove stencil and blend with brush to soften the line in a windshield wiper motion blending out and away from the eye. Repeat the same on other eye and finish by applying a base shade from the brow bone to the crease of eye as seen here on Katie. Next, add extra depth by lining the inside rim of the eyes with a deep black liner, like Prescriptives Softlining Pencil in Jet.

Get the most length out of your lashes with a great mascara. We like deep black Diorshow Mascara. Apply two coat for lashes that will have heads spinning! Dab some Kitty Cream Blush from Beth Bender Beauty on the cheeks and top off with NARS Lip Lacquer in Chelsea Girls and you’re red carpet-ready too!

Holiday Celeb Looks- Sexy Cat Eyes

Thandie Newton's Cat Eye

Add allure for special occasions with a sultry cat eye. Makeup artist Beth Bender says to start with a natural matte shadow over the entire eyelid and then create the cat eye. She recommends using the Get in Line Stencil System which will do a cat eye as thin or as thick as you like. Seen here on Thandie Newton. For a more dramatic look, line underneath the eye using the bottom liner stencil from the kit and smudge with your brush for a soft sexier look. Frame the eyes with a rosy beige blush, try Baby, $26 at bettesboutique.com and highlight the cheeks with Shiseido Glistening Flush.

Holiday Eyes That Sizzle!

Lauren Conrad’s eyes look beautiful with a soft silver shimmer on the eyelids and a strong black liner which makes her green eyes even greener. I love the red lips and her sheer face with just a touch of sheen on the cheeks.

To get this look start with a silver shadow and apply with an eyeshadow brush on just your eyelids making sure to get the color into the corner of eyes as seen here. Try Double-O-Silver, $16 at bettesboutique.com. For perfect eyeliner we suggest using the Get in Line Stencil kit, $36 at bethbenderbeauty.com. It does the work for you. Simply lay the stencil over your eye and apply the color. No space in between your lash line and eyelid, just perfect eyeliner. Finish with two coats of black mascara. We like Dior Show Mascara, $23 at Sephora.com.

Keep the the cheeks soft with just a touch of color. We like Stila’s Tutu powder blush, $16 at Stilacosmetics.com. Add just a touch of shimmer on the apple of cheeks as seen here. We like Bobbi Brown’s Pink Quartz Shimmer Brick, $38 at Bobbibrown.com.

To finish this fabulous look apply a super sexy lip gloss in red with lots of shine. We like Sugar Daddy Liquid Lip color, $16 at bettesboutique.com. For longer lasting color fill in your lips first with a red lip pencil and then apply the gloss.

More beth bender beauty sightings…

Seen…Jessica Alba in NYC...seen, Time Square - MTV Headquarters. Taping a segment for TRL and giving her perfect pout some lip service with Chasing the Cash Liquid Lip color.

Seen…Nicole Richie at the L.A. Gay & Lesbian Community serving food to the poor and homeless on Thanksgiving. She really is such a sweet thing. Not much room in her pockets but for a lip gloss and car keys. What gloss you might ask was she wearing? That would be Ooh Baby Liquid Lip color from beth bender beauty. I think she must have picked it for the name as well as the color.

Seen…New to beth bender beauty and just loving the Get in Line Eyeliner Stencil System is Mary-Kate Olsen. Seen at NYC's 7th on Sale gala and overheard by a guest saying how cool the stencil kit was. This is a girl who knows how to work a smoky eye. I don't think I have ever seen her without eye make up.

Sexy Smoky Cat Eyes Please

I have always thought Kerry Washington was stunning but this photo of her is off the charts! She is working that smoky look like nobody’s business and her almond shape eyes make them even more dazzling. Someone spent a lot of time making those eyes gorgeous and it shows.

To get this look try a deep charcoal shadow and extend the color to the base of the brow bone as seen here. I call this a smoky cat eye because it looks like a smoky eye but has a point like a cat eye. You can use a softer shimmer shadow in a dark silver or one without shimmer depending on how dark you want the eye.

Make sure to really blend the color and for a little pop add a bit of gold or light bronze shimmer to the corner of eyes. Finish by lining the inside of your eyes with a black liner and two coats of black mascara, concentrating on the outer lashes.

For sexy cat eyes like these check out The Get in Line Eyeliner & Stencil Kit at bettesboutique.com

Keep your lips sheer so the focus is on your sexy cat eyes. Try Chasing the Cash liquid lip color from beth bender beauty, new from the Hollywood Nude Collection.
