Coconut oil is a must for everything. It is fresh from the earth, so it naturally works to moisturize my scalp, skin, hair and even helps to remove eye makeup. It also smells delicious. You can buy it at a beauty store or the grocery store.
I feel like hair is the number one thing that makes me feel beautiful or not. If I have really bad hair, but my makeup’s beautiful and I have a wonderful dress on, I’m still not happy. So if I wake up, and I’ve got 2 big zits on my face and my hair looks fierce, I feel ok. I have a weird hair obsession.
It’s amazing, coconut oil. I use it as a moisturizer. I put it in my hair when I want a kind of greasy look. I take off my makeup with it. I put a little bit in my coffee. I have coconut oil with everything.
I’ve been doing my own makeup since I was 15. I would steal my mom’s products, go online, watch YouTube videos of girls doing their makeup, and try.
I’ve been involved with sports my whole life, which made clothes and makeup and handbags not that important as a kid. I just didn’t care.
My mom was an aesthetician and she went to beauty school back in the ’60s. I just remember watching her do her makeup all the time. She always had her nails done, makeup on – her face was ready to go when she went out. I loved it.
I think happiness is a choice. If you feel yourself being happy and can settle in to the life choices you make, then it’s great. It’s really, really great. I swear to God, happiness is the best makeup.
For me, in my normal life, I’m very all-or-nothing. I’m super comfortable dressed to the nines – full hair and makeup. I love feeling really done up. And I love feeling undone. I love sweatpants and my hair in a topknot. I go with no makeup. Or I have a full look.
For my eyes, my day-to-day just involves curling my lashes to open up my eyes and applying our mascara, The Quickie. If I’m getting my makeup done, I like to get individual lash extensions or a strip of false lashes, depending on how glam I want to get.
I couldn’t even imagine not being able to take long, hot showers or wear makeup whenever I wanted or shave my underarms. There are certain things people take for granted.
I did not know that you had to learn makeup. I just thought you went, ‘Oh, I’m gonna put on some makeup.’
If you look at tennis, the girls have become much more attractive; they wear makeup. In my generation, you were a tennis player. It wasn’t like you had to look a certain way.
It feels otherworldly to wear heels and makeup. Why fit in when you can stand out?
With actors, all our ages are out there for all to see – you can’t hide anything, really. And it’s kind of a relief. This is my age, this is what I look like without makeup on – who cares? That youth culture – that lying about your age – it’s all denial of death anyway.
I like doing my makeup myself! It’s a hobby of mine. I like to play around. I’ve learned all the best tricks from the pros!
On stage, I’m this figure, this actor, who does things that people aren’t used to seeing and I relish in that reaction. In real life, though, I play golf, I shop and I walk around with no makeup on and my hair in a ponytail. I may not be the typical middle-aged Joe, but I’m closer to normal than you think.
Wash your face at the end of the night! There’s nothing worse than sleeping in makeup. You wake up looking like a painting that’s been left out in a rainstorm.
I love glamour and artificial beauty. I love the idea of artifice and dressing up and makeup and hair.
I really miss wearing costumes and makeup.
Oh I love not wearing makeup, that’s like my favourite thing.
There are a lot of perks when you’re an actor. Free food at work was my second favorite in the beginning, but my first was the weird stuff. Like seeing celebrities in no makeup and finding out what they ate.
I personally think my sister is so stunning without makeup. And she doesn’t wear that much makeup because she has the best skin color.
I love fashion, and I love changing my style, my hair, my makeup, and everything I’ve done in the past has made me what I am now. Not everyone is going to like what I do, but I look back at everything, and it makes me smile.
I know how influential I am over my fans and followers. I feel like everything I do, my hair color, my makeup, I always start these huge trends, and I don’t even realize what I’m capable of.
I very much feel like I’m part of the makeup of ‘Once Upon a Time.’
‘Pretty’ is not the amount of makeup on your face or the shirt you’re wearing or the size of your pants – that is false.
During the day, I really don’t wear much makeup.
I love watching YouTube makeup tutorials of girls who are so brave and show others how to blend in foundation on blemish-prone skin. I’ve considered creating my own YouTube tutorial for other girls just to show that everyone has these problems.
In college, I would do my teammate’s hair and their makeup sometimes. I did a friend’s makeup at the 2008 Olympics, and she said, ‘Have you ever considered taking classes?’ For some reason, it had never crossed my mind.
When it comes to lingerie, there are no rules. I feel the sexiest when I’m myself, no hair, no makeup.
When you’re with another actor who’s also been through five hours of prosthetic makeup, and you’re eating another person’s neck, and fake blood is being spurted out at you for two minutes, it’s incredibly fun, and you’re in character for that time. You can’t really believe that that’s your job.
I didn’t like my hair and makeup one time on a photo shoot, and my publicist told me, ‘You should just be happy with it – they haven’t had a black girl on the cover since forever.’ She’s no longer my publicist.
I love the entire ritual of getting dressed. When we do a fashion show, we try to send out a message; we couldn’t do that without the hair and makeup. The whole is equal to the sum of its parts.
I was watching ‘Up In The Air’ and I thought, ‘Jesus, who’s the old gray-haired guy?’ And it was me. I never wear makeup for movies and now it’s starting to show.
The biggest beauty myth is that everyone looks better without makeup. That’s not true. Makeup is important.
I certainly know first hand the waste one lady can create through her primping routine, because I am a victim of fashion: to me a day without makeup and a bouffant to match is a day wasted. I love it all – whether it’s fancy, cheap or, I’m ashamed to say, even if it’s bad for the environment.
With confidence, I think anyone can get a dress and make it their own. I don’t think you should have it off the runway and wear it like they want you to wear it. You know, with their hair and makeup – their woman. I just think it’s boring. You have to make it your own. That’s what fashion is all about.
Makeup is malleable and mercurial: The biggest joy I have every day is the opportunity to create, to play, and to invent with something I’ve loved forever.
When I was younger, my goal in life was to work in special FX makeup. Liquid latex and fake blood! That was the dream!
Cleanses and products don’t make you look more beautiful. They certainly help, but if you reach contentment, you’re set. My makeup artist, Melanie Iglesias, couldn’t figure out why my skin looks so good. I think it’s because I’m happy!
I am very much against makeup and high heels and all that we inherit as ‘beauty.’
The sweetest thing a guy said is that I look pretty with or without makeup.
I don’t have to wear any other makeup as long as I have blush.
Makeup is scary. When I do it myself, it’s just mascara, and sometimes I forget even to do that.
I don’t want to be known as the Aerosmith chick, but it’s fun to put on the boots and makeup and act like a tough girl.
It’s one thing to evaluate a woman’s work. it’s another thing to say, ‘Your hair was this; your makeup was that.’
I went to public high school in Scottsdale, Arizona, and I certainly wore a lot of makeup in high school. I experimented with a cat eye for a semester, and then, you know, a strong red lip because Courtney Love in Hole was all the rage.
I think the most important thing to putting on a good show is to always mix things up. Sometimes we wear makeup; other times we don’t. The point is, you’ll never get the same Avenged show twice. I think it’s really important to be theatrical. I mean, look at Iron Maiden!
Some people ask me, Do they put aging makeup on you? It’s just this very nice street makeup.
I met Matt when he was in Busted. I was working at MTV and I’d see him wearing baggy jeans, waddling around like a duck so they didn’t fall down. He used to wear makeup and have weird hairstyles. But I remember thinking underneath all that was a really cute guy.
I didn’t understand why people cared about my hair or my makeup or my clothing. It was like, ‘I’m a prosecutor. I’m not a model. I’m not an actress.’
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.
‘Venus in Fur’ is very Polanski: you have the knife of ‘Rosemary’s Baby’; you have Thomas disguised as a woman as in ‘The Tenant,’ when Vanda puts makeup on him, it’s like ‘Cul de Sac’; the dress of Tess and other details that are very Polanski. He fell in love with the play because it was so much him.
Personalized beauty is about each woman being able to create her own makeup routine that complements her coloring and style.
