The industry’s most sought-after makeup artists recently told Beauty Insider about the beauty items they couldn’t live without.
To brighten up a face, Bobbi Brown said she always reaches for Bobbi Brown Corrector/Concealer. “It instantly brightens and lightens the under eye area and makes you look less tired.” Bobbi also gave thumbs up to her Crystal Lip Gloss, which she uses on eyelids and cheeks for a dewy finish or for a glossy lids effect.Lastly, she’s excited about Retouching Powders, a final step in makeup application to elimanate shine, which will launch in the spring.
Shiseido’s Dick Page thinks eyebrow mascaras are the next big thing. He sees many versions in Asia but concedes they haven’t caught on the U.S. just yet. Their favorite attribute? ” I love the way they can give a little bit of enhancement to women with [weak] brows,” he said.
Maybelline New York’s Charlotte Willer is addicted to Maybelline Dream BB, which she used backstage at almost every show she keyed during Fashion Week. “Flawless but natural looking skin was a theme throughout a majority of the shows. Dream BB provides just that result – nothing heavy but rather naturally, glowing skin.”
Revlon’s Gucci Westman said she’s loving the color cosmetics company’s Colorburst Lip Butters, especially the new range for spring/summer 2013. Colorburst Lip Butters have taken drugstores by storm, with formulas made up of hydrating mango, shea and coconut butters that profoundly boost lip moisture and provide a sheer to medium payoff with a buttery shine.
