I don’t know any neighborhoods where everyone’s walking around in seven-inch heels and perfect makeup.
Strike the right balance between your outfit and makeup. Make a statement with one, not both.
I never wanted to wear skirts or shoes, makeup, nails, dresses, or even wear my hair a certain way. I always wanted to wear sneakers, stud earrings, hair in a ponytail, and play with the boys.
It feels otherworldly to wear heels and makeup. Why fit in when you can stand out?
This is so cliche, but my beauty icon would have to be Angelina Jolie. She looks like she wears natural makeup, but she’s still beautiful.
Sometimes it’s so weird just to do an interview. This morning I was back in my parents’ house, with my brother, and we went for a jog together, then had breakfast as a family. And a couple of hours later I’m wearing high heels and a dress and makeup, and talking about my job.
I love glamour and artificial beauty. I love the idea of artifice and dressing up and makeup and hair.
For me, taking care of your skin is the most important step. You can cover it with all the makeup you have, and it’s still not as nice as beautiful skin.
Makeup is an accessory to fashion. You buy a bag, you buy shoes, you put on eyeliner, you buy a lipstick, makeup compliments the clothes.
The idea behind makeup is to enhance whatever color or contours you have in your face. I’m a big believer in that. And don’t use to much powder; powder is really aging. I’ve made that mistake myself.
I just couldn’t get into the high school scene at all. I was fat, ugly and weird. I just couldn’t do the makeup and the hairdos.
The Fox News makeup treatment is unlike any other in journalism. It involves false lashes, layers and layers of foundation, and heavy applications of come-hither lip gloss.
I think there’s a perception out there that people know me based on these glamorous photos they see of me in magazines, but I have about two hours of hair and makeup and then people to dress me, to make me look even better, in those pictures.
I feel more confident if my makeup looks good.
Makeup is an extraordinary tool that allows me to share my inspirations, my fantasies, and my vision with the world.
I love natural beauty, and I think it’s your best look, but I think makeup as an artist is so transformative.
Anytime I’m playing music or getting ready to record, Duane Allman will enter my thoughts, and so will Berry Oakley. It’s part of my musical makeup and mental process when it comes to music. We learned to play together and taught each other a lot.
It’s so easy to be insecure about your looks or if you’re wearing the right clothes, or your hair and makeup. And I think it’s just so important to stay true to who you are.
I’m a big believer in that if you focus on good skin care, you really won’t need a lot of makeup.
I don’t usually wear a lot of makeup because I tend to like a natural look.
I quite like that people tend not to know my name. I remember being at the Cannes film festival for ‘All or Nothing.’ I looked very different in the film – I had a little greasy bob and no makeup. I went to a dinner after the screening, and everyone completely ignored me. I got a real buzz out of that.
When you’re looking through a magazine, you’d think every single person’s a different person, but every third girl is actually the same girl in a different outfit and makeup.
Costume, hair and makeup can tell you instantly, or at least give you a larger perception of who a character is. It’s the first impression that you have of the character before they open their mouth, so it really does establish who they are.
I’m not quite ready for a no makeup movie.
As a young boy, I had strange dreams of affecting people and somehow being instrumental in changing the makeup of Africa and helping to improve life there.
I’m very proud to be black, but black is not all I am. That’s my cultural historical background, my genetic makeup, but it’s not all of who I am nor is it the basis from which I answer every question.
There are a lot of people who do a lot of things to be outrageous with fashion, hair or makeup.
It’s funny, one of my most solid carpet moments happened in the very beginning, before I started thinking that I needed all these other people to do my hair and makeup, and pick out my clothes. I wore a cheetah sweater and a red hat, and it’s one of my favorite looks, even still.
MAC is truly at the forefront of trendsetting, which reminds me every time I see a MAC campaign or the incredible looks their artists create backstage at fashion weeks around the world. It’s an honor to partner with a brand with such an incredible heritage and unrivaled expertise in makeup artistry.
Grooming is 10 times more important than makeup. I use a hair gloss with a teeny bit of color in it that makes my hair very shiny.
If I were Elizabeth Sloane, I wouldn’t be wearing makeup. I’d just be focused on getting the job done.
Problem-solving becomes a very important part of our makeup as we grow into maturity or move up the corporate ladder.
I am a makeup junkie… Yves St. Laurent, Christian Dior, and anything else that looks good.
L.A. girls always have perfect hair and makeup in every situation.
My goal is that my makeup and style will inspire Midwestern housewives. I want there to be a breakdown of ‘Justin’s smoky eye’ in Cosmo.
I felt very grown up when I was wearing makeup, thank you very much.
From being in the industry as a teenager, I’m so used to getting makeup done all day.
Before I go to bed, I brush my teeth and take off all my makeup. I like to use Neutrogena’s makeup remover wipes.
When I played Tonto in ‘The Lone Ranger’ and was playing the older Tonto, I would just leave the makeup on and go to sleep because it was a four or five hour job; it was, from the waist up, all over me.
When the women’s movement started in the 1960s, there was a vision of a future where women didn’t wear makeup or worry about how their hair looked, and everybody wore sensible, comfortable clothes. It ran into an absolute brick wall.
At Sarah Lawrence, I realized that everybody was already what they were going to be. The painters were painting, the writers writing, the dancers dancing. And nobody wore any makeup. The art was uppermost.
Because God gave you your makeup and superintended every moment of your past, including all the hardship, pain, and struggles, He wants to use your words in a unique manner. No one else can speak through your vocal cords, and, equally important, no one else has your story.
I don’t feel very glowing, especially after wearing makeup – and not necessarily my choice of makeup – for 12 hours straight on a movie set. When I’m playing a character, her look is sometimes different from my own.
I chose makeup over photography because there was something very sensual about makeup that I loved. But photography was always in the back of my mind. That was always something that I was very connected with: looking at magazines, enjoying photography, and then taking pictures myself when I was a kid.
I’m really an outdoorsy girl. People think I can’t go anywhere without getting all primped up, but I love to go camping, and I’m totally fine with not doing my hair or makeup, not taking a shower and just hiking.
Working on ‘Honeymoon,’ an independent movie, was almost like working on TV with the space, and everything was stripped down – costume and hair and makeup. There was very little to hide behind, and you absolutely had to create the character from within.
If I’m wearing makeup, I always wash my face. Washing my face is a must.
I think a natural look is prettier. I rarely wear makeup, but we always wear sunscreen on our faces.
I really love diving in, head first, with directing and not having to worry about hair, makeup or lines.
It was a whole new attitude: no makeup, less is more… the ’90s were fun!
I don’t think anybody else can play the Hulk like I could. I was able to show emotions even with all of the makeup. I don’t think it can be duplicated.
For me, in a world full of armies of stylists and makeup artists, what I think truly makes a fashion icon is how a girl dresses when she’s off duty and she has to put her own looks together – no small challenge!
I’m a beauty guru, I just love all of that stuff. We have a makeup artist for ‘Dance Moms’ that touches us up and stuff, but I love doing my own makeup; sometimes I do my friends’, too. My favorite is doing eye shadow and eyeliner.
I love getting dressed up for red carpet events and having my hair and makeup done professionally – that definitely helps with nerves of going down the red carpet.
I don’t really put on makeup when I’m on mom duty at home.
One trick I swear by: I pour a little neroli or lavender oil onto a hot towel and use it to wipe off my makeup. It opens up my pores, and then my face cream sinks in better.
I wear very natural makeup, but it’s made up out of five foundations to make that perfect skin, and my lipstick might be three different lipsticks mixed together, so it’s a kind of obsession in a different way.
Riding my motorcycle around L.A. is like my own video game. But unlike many folks at the wheel, I am occupied with getting where I’m going and keeping myself safe. Most people are applying makeup, texting, and checking out the beauty in the next car.
