Yara Shahidi’s Glowing Skin at the 2019 SAG Awards

Black-ish and Grown-ish star, Yara Shahidi made a stunning appearance showcasing radiant, glowing skin on the red carpet as an Ambassador for the 2019 SAG Awards.

Yara’s go-to celebrity makeup artist, Emily Cheng breaks down the stars’ gorgeous soft and youthful beauty look.

SKINCARE: Before the red carpet, Emily prepped Yara’s cleansed skin with the iconic SK-II Facial Treatment Essence. The most important product to transform skin and create a beautiful canvas for makeup, SK-II’s “miracle water” contains over 90% pure PITERATM – the exclusive miracle ingredient found in all SK-II products that closely mimics your skin’s natural moisturizing functions and provides optimal hydration, glow and texture.

After pouring the lightweight Essence into her hands, Emily gently pressed and patted the product onto Yara’s face and neck with her palms for 1-minute to ensure even coverage of the miracle water into skin. The iconic Essence (unchanged for over 38 years!) provides instant, deep hydration, and leaves skin with a brighter glow, less visible wrinkles, smoother texture, suppler skin, and helps prevent spots.

Onto the complexion, Monika layered Clé de Peau Radiant Fluid Foundation SPF 24 in #030 – Medium Ochre and blending softly to for a natural, skin-like finish.

‘Black Panther’ star Lupita Nyong’o consistently wows us with her excellent red carpet style and this year’s Golden Globes look was no exception. While her shimmering Calvin Klein by Appointment dress dazzled, it was her stunning blue beauty look that really captured audiences. Created by celeb makeup artist Nick Barose, the bold makeup look was all about modernizing the popular 80s tone and vibe while remaining fun.

“It’s fun to wear colors and you do it in small doses with liner and lashes without having it be the color on the whole eyelid,” says Nick. Paring contrasting colors on the eyes and lips, here’s how Nick achieved this playful beauty look with Lancôme:

SKIN: With such bold eyes, Nick wanted Lupita’s skin to be fresh and glowing. He achieved a radiant glow by infusing the skin with the extra moisturizing Lancôme Advanced Génifique Hydrogel Melting Sheet Mask. Allowing the mask to work its magic for a few extra moments really allows the skin draw out a natural luminous finish. Nick then moved on to prep the undereye area. Using Lancôme Advanced Genifique Eye Light Pearl, Nick massaged the luminating concentrate along the eye contour which instantly gives a more rested appearance and texture. Following the mask, Nick blotted off any lingering product and applied a bit of Lancôme Absolue Revitalizing & Brightening Soft Cream onto the face and pulled the product down to the neck.

Get The Look: Lucy Hale’s Teen Choice Awards Bold Green Beauty

Lucy Hale’s ultra-cool green beauty look was certainly the most memorable beauty moment at this year’s Teen Choice Awards.

Makeup artist Kelsey Deenihan drew from the colorful tones of Lucy’s Mary Katrantzou dress for the evening and created a summery green eye look that dazzled on the red carpet. Here’s how she created this bold look:

SKIN: For this look, Kelsey didn’t want to mask Lucy’s flawless skin and chose lightweight products to correct and enhance Lucy’s already radiant complexion. She first corrected any redness on Lucy’s skin with Clé de PeauBeauté Concealer Broad Spectrum SPF 25 in shades Almond and Beige and then applied La Prairie Skin Caviar Essence-in-Foundation SPF 25 to the skin.

CHEEKS: Once a flawless canvas was achieved, Kelsey moved on to defining Lucy’s cheeks and adding a dash of color. For a soft contour, Kelsey used AVON True Color Transforming Contour Stick to the cheeks and blended for a polished look. For a hint of color, La Prairie Cellular Radiance Cream Blush in Rose Glow was seamlessly diffused onto the cheeks.

EYES: To create the mesmerizing green eye look, Kelsey opted for carefully applied layers of color. She began by applying Chanel Ombre Premiere Longwear Cream Eyeshadow in shade 824 Verderame onto the lids, blended into the crease and under the lower lash line. The creamy texture and lasting quality of this product served as an ideal base for the next powdered shadows to properly adhere and appear more vibrant. Kelsey then applied the shimmery emerald shade from the Kat Von D 10th Anniversary Palette atop the cream eyeshadow.Finally, for a metallic, multifaceted finish, Kryolan Pure Pigments in Pure Envy was applied to center of the lids and the inner corners which made Lucy’s bright eyes pop. Kelsey finished off the glamorous eye look with a few coats of Avon True Color Love at 1st Lash Mascara which added lots of drama to Lucy’s naturally voluminous lashes.

LIPS: Kelsey wanted to keep the lips simple and didn’t want them to compete with the bold eye look. Interestingly, she opted out of a traditional nude and decided on sheer, glass-like textured lips.Kelsey coated Lucy’s full pout with Avon True Color Lips Glow Lip Gloss in Clear for a delicate lacquered finish.

Get The Look: Rita Ora’s Poppy Bronzed Met Gala Beauty Look

Rita Ora dazzled in a dramatic adorned Prada noir gown at this Monday’s Met Gala, though it was the poppy embellished design of the gown which served asthe inspiration for her beauty look.

Makeup artist Kathy Jeung wanted the makeup to complement her ensemble and look just as bright with bold tones like fuchsia and bronze with holographic finishes.

The final makeup look was structured and brightly colored with a soft romantic appearance. Using Pat McGrath Labs versatile collection, here’s how she created this look:

SKIN: Prior to makeup, Kathy really wanted to treat Rita’s skin, providing it with amply moisture and ensure a radiant and youthful base. She used an array of Valmont skincare products to prep Rita’s skin. To exfoliate the skin, Kathy used the Valmont Clarifying pack, she then masked the skin with the Valmont Energy Prime Renewing Pack, to de-stress the skin and inject some radiance while ridding any signs of fatigue. She moisturized the delicate under eye and lip area with Valmont Prime Contour. For an extra boost to the skin, Kathy also used the ultimate skincare product, Biologique Lotion P50 1970.

CONTOUR/HIGHLIGHT: Once the skin was prepped, primed and set, Kathy contoured and highlighted her flawless complexion. To define her cheeks, Kathy blended ‘Gold Rush & Gilt Trip’ (bronze shades) from the Pat McGrath Labs MTHRSHP Sublime Bronze Ambition Palette onto the hollows of Rita’s cheeks. For stunning warmth and a bronze finish, Kathy used the same shades and dusted it along the temples, along the hairline and under the chin. Once the skin was bronzed, Kathy added lustrous radiance along Rita’s cheekbones using the MOTHERSHIP III: Subversive Eye Palette. To complement the stunning shades on Rita’s dress, she used the ‘VR Pink’ shade to the tops of Rita’s cheekbones, softly blending and diffusing outwards.

EYES: For that glamorous almost opalescent bronze smoky eye, Kathy used the Pat McGrath Labs MTHRSHP Sublime Bronze Ambition Palette. Blending all the bronze shades from the palette helped her created a subtle and elegant colored eye look. For an eye-opening touch, she applied ‘SkinshowFever’ from the MOTHERSHIP III: Subversive Eye Palette in the inner corner or her eyes (tear ducts). To further enhance the eye makeup and create a more uniform look, Kathy used her finger and applied ‘VR Pink’, the same product used to highlight the upper cheekbones, onto the center of her eyelids. Finally, to define the romantic bronzed eye makeup, Kathy lined Rita’s eyes with Pat McGrath Permagel Ultra Glide Eye Pencil in Blitz Brown.

LIPS: To create that poppy fuchsia lip, Kathy opted to use a lasting matte product. She evenly applied Rimmel London Stay Matte Liquid Lip Color in Heartbeatto Rita’s full lips.
