Oh Tyra! What happened? Your usual make-up artist was busy? Next time call me girl cause this is terrible!
 Brand Promotion FAIL
I was very surprised (but also excited) to learn that the film Snow White and The Huntsman was partnering up with Benefit for a collection. The film looks dark and enchanting so Benefit, with their vintage motif, didn't seem like an appropriate partner for the film starring Kristen Stewart and Charlize Theron. And then I come to find out the collection is really just already existing Benefit products repackaged in a box featuring Stewarts face. FAIL.
Just before this disappointment I was sad to learn that Estee Lauder's Mad Men collection was really just a drab pink creme blush and matching lipstick that don't look anything like the colors used in the campaign's advertising photo. Hopefully the upcoming Andy Warhol inspired collection from NARS doesn't follow suit.
GRAMMY HITS AND MISSES
Jennifer Hudson had the hard task of singing Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You" in memorial to Whitney Houston who made this song a mega hit. With such courage and a stunning voice Hudson didn't disappoint however her makeup did. Hudson was a victim of two much makeup in a color that didn't match. Her face was saying Umpa Loopa but her arms were a beautiful coco. Poor thing.
Adele won many Grammys last night and her look was classic. There was a little too much contouring for my taste but her liquid liner and long lashes were beautiful. Before her performance Adele switched from a bright red lip (similar to MAC's Ruby Woo) to a pale pink gloss. To achieve Adele's winged eye use Laura Mercier's Cake Eyeliner in Black Ebony with the Tightline Activtor for lasting power. Then line the bottom lashes and waterline with a black pencil. http://www-tvline-com.vimg. Neon
Neon is a big trend in fashion for this Spring/Summer and Laura Mercier
is the place to go to pull it off in makeup colors without looking like
a clown.
Their gel lipsticks are back in 5 bold shades. These sticks are super moisturizing with peach, apricot and almond oils and sheer enough for an everyday look. What's even more fabulous is that they are debuting a limited edition nail polish collection to match the gel lips! These five fast drying, chip resistant colors have no formaldehyde, toluene or dibutyl phthalate (DBP).
