Polished Skin and Nude Lips
"Kristen Stewart was wearing a stunning Proenza Schouler gown and she and the designers decided they wanted a striking smoky eye with a nude lip," makeup artist Beau Nelson said of the star's 2011 MET Balllook. Of course, the perfect canvas is the start to a flawless face. "I started by applying a silky, lightweight foundation with a synthetic brush in a circular motion to give her skin an even, radiant glow." (Synthetic brushes tend to be less irritating than natural ones, and they last longer.) Nelson swirled foundation on Stewart's lips to blot out their natural color before tapping a moisturizing lipstick on her mouth for a warm nude finish.
Perfect Mascara
As the spokesperson for Mark cosmetics, it's no surprise that Ashley Greene has some pretty expert tricks for applying her flawless makeup. Take the lush, fluttery fringe makeup artist Matthew VanLeeuwen gave the star for the 2011 MET Ball in New York City. "I applied the mascara by wiggling the wand back and forth at the base of lash to deposit color at the roots," he said. "Then, I painted the length of the lashes to get a wispy finish." Before applying mascara to the bottom lashes, VanLeeuwen wiped the wand clean. "That way, the color is very light—this technique gives a glam, young starlet look." We couldn't agree more.
