Found It! Eva Longoria’s Graphic Eyeliner

May 20, 2013 @ 6:30 pm

Eva Longoria brought the drama to the Cannes premiere of Le Passe by complementing her elegant Zuhair Murad number with an equally elegant cat eye. To create the look, Longoria’s makeup artist contoured her eyes using L’Oreal’s Colour Riche Quad in Army Brat ($8; lorealparisusa.com) and finished with a thick sweep of L’Oreal’s Voluminous Smoldering Eyeliner in black ($9; lorealparisusa.com). Getting the precise shape can be tricky, so we recommend looking down into your mirror as you apply the product. This helps you get the color as close to your lashes as possible, eliminating the risk of any telltale eyeliner gaps. Finally, use an angled cotton swab to bring the winged-out edges to a point.

Get more tips on creating a cat-eye look below.

The Best Mascara You’ll Find for $8 Is…

Apr 25, 2013 @ 12:45 pm

Forget the twisted mascara wands and rotating brushes—we’ve tested them all and L’Oreal‘s Voluminous Original came out on top as the best inexpensive mascara in our 2013 Best Beauty Buys! The secret lies in the ample amount of panthenol used in the formula, which makes the product easier to apply while also hydrating your lashes. Hair and makeup pro Tasha Reiko Brown loves it so much, she’ll skip the falsies when working with her famous clientele like Jordin Sparks. “I’ve spent thousands on mascara—this is the best!” she told us. And the feeling is mutual; the product is such a staple in our makeup bags, that its stay-put counterpart also won best waterproof mascara of 2013! Pick up a tube of L’Oreal Voluminous Original for $8 at drugstore.com.

Found It at the SAG Awards! Freida Pinto’s Glowing Eye Shadow

Jan 28, 2013 @ 10:46 am

Freida Pinto glowed at the SAG Awards last night, partly because of her bright Roland Mouret gown and partly because of her impeccable makeup look, the latter of which was created by makeup artist Kira Nasrat. “The inspiration was soft and sophisticated glamour,” Nasrat told InStyle.com exclusively. “Freida has striking hazel eyes so I wanted to frame them.” To do so, she used L’Oreal products on the star (Pinto is a face for the beauty brand), including L’Oreal Colour Riche Shadow Quad in Good Luck Charm ($8 at drugstore.com) and Infallible Eyeliner in navy ($8 at target.com). “I used warm tones all over her eyelids and a navy blue eyeliner on the lower waterline,” Nasrat explained. What a gorgeous mix!

Found It! Freida Pinto’s Sundance Lip Look

Jan 24, 2013 @ 8:00 am

Freida Pinto worked a winterfresh look throughout her time at the Sundance Film Festival, where she was on hand to promote the inspiring documentary about education in underprivileged communities, Girl Rising. “Freida radiates natural beauty and has gorgeous skin,” makeup artist Kira Nasrat told InStyle.com of working with the star on site in Park City, Utah. “For a makeup artist, she’s a dream come true to work with.” To achieve her look, Nasrat used a combination of L’Oreal products (Pinto is a face for the beauty brand), including the label’s Colour Riche Gloss in #162 Blushing Berry on her lips. “I wanted to enhance her natural warm glow by keeping her perfect skin moisturized and dewy in the crisp mountain air,” Nasrat said. “For her lips I sparingly used a berry colored gloss more as a tint.” Shop the product for $8 at drugstores nationwide.
