Mary Kay Insider Beauty Tips from Project Runway 2013! {GIVEAWAY}

6:03 AM

I am all about looking beautiful. Somehow, being a stay at home mom does not afford me many opportunities to go out of my way to wear makeup but I do enjoy the opportunities that I do get. Next weekend is my wedding anniversary and I am excited to get dressed up for a date with my hubby. I will take any excuse to get dressed up and go out with my hubby. :) I will, of course, be sporting my Mary Kay makeup that I love!!
Recently, Alyssa Milano attended the Project Runway All Stars Premier and she looked absolutely stunning! That dress would only look good on certain people and she was definitely the right person for it! I was also informed that Mary Kay was the Official Beauty Sponsor for this event and what better company to have as your official beauty sponsor than Mary Kay! Mary Kay's Glam Squad member and celebrity makeup artist, Virginia Linzee has shared her tips on how to get the look that Alyssa was sporting that night on the red carpet. If you want to re-create this lovely look, here are Virginia's tips...
  • Begin with Mary Kay TimeWise Luminous-Wear Liquid Foundation for glowing skin that looks flawless on the red carpet. Don't forget to bring the foundation down the neck for all over flawless coverage and blend evenly using a cosmetic sponge. Using the Mary Kay Facial Highlighting Pen, smooth under the eyes, on the cheekbones, and down the bridge of the nose to instantly brighten the face.
  • Add warmth and dimension to the skin with Mary Kay Mineral Powder in a shade that is two shades darker than your own skin tone. Using an angled cheek brush, lightly dust the powder along the hairline, in the hollows of the cheekbones, under the chin and down the neck to define the angles of your face. Sweep a little Mineral Cheek Color in Citrus Bloom onto the apples of the cheeks, using a blush brush.
  • To keep your eyes red carpet worthy all night, start with a little Mary Kay Eye Primer. For eyes like Alyssa's, use the Mary Kay At Play Baked Eye Trio in Tuxedo. Start with the silver on the eyelid. Then use a crease brush to blend the black shade into the crease, as well as the outside part of the eyelid and in the lower lash line. Finally, use a brush to blend some of the white in the inner corner of the eye to add brightness and makes eyes really pop. For stunning eyes, curl lashes and apply several coats of Lash Love Lengthening Mascara in Black.
  • Apply True Dimensions Lipstick in Natural Beauté and NouriShine Plus Lip Gloss in Au Naturel.  Complete Alyssa’s red carpet look with Mary Kay Makeup Finishing Spray by Skindinavia, applying in a “T” and “X” formation to keep makeup looking fresh for up to 16 hours!
I don't know about you but I am so in love with this look and would love to try and re-create it on myself. Great makeup just makes your outfit so if you would like to look as good as Alyssa, you can enter a giveaway to win some Mary Kay products for yourself...courtesy of Mary Kay!

    I can't pick just one product that I love. MK lash love is perfect for achieving full lashes! Also Satin Hands is AMAZING to get through dry winters. My hands feel like silk after using that product!
