Celebrity Makeup Tips

Are They Worth Listening To?

Yes, celebrity makeup tips are worth listening to. They are often the equivalent of the 'inside scoop' on the best beauty products, techniques and tips. I would consider a candid tip from a star being interviewed, a pretty valuable recommendation (provided, of coarse, that they aren't a spokesperson for the brand mentioned).

That information is gold to anyone wanting to avoid the hassle (and wasted money), learning through trial and error, what products will perform well. Yes, I would guess that's of interest to most of us.

WARNING: Keep an ear open for spokespersons naming the brand they work for, as their favorite (i.e. if Drew Barrymore says her favorite eyeshadows are Covergirl...you might take that tip with a little grain of salt. However, if Gwyneth Paltrow says she has NARS Eyeshadow Duo Pandora in her makeup bag...you can consider that a pretty authentic celebrity makeup tip revealing a preferred product ).

Looking beautiful may not make celebrities experts BUT they sure do spend a lot of time with the experts. In fact, celebrities may spend hours daily when they are working and thats a lot of exposure to top pro makeup artists, hair and fashion stylists, not to mention the other creative crew on set.

Experience "on set"...

celebrity makeup tips dressing room door Celebrity makeup tips and beauty product recommendations come directly from experiencing the very top, best of the very best, beauty experts. Whether on set, a fashion shoot, press release, movie launch etc actors and/or models experience a lot of beauty preparation; hair, makeup wardrobe etc. The more prestigious the job, the more prestigious the professional talent doing it.

Invested In creating an "A List" star image

For an actor or model (and models are celebrities these days), looking good IS their livelihood and they couldn't be more serious about making sure they are at the top of their beauty game. Most high profile celebs literally have a 'team' of beauty professionals they consult; talented makeup artists, hair stylists, fashion consultants, personal trainers etc. that help them put together their beauty strategy to make sure they are maximizing the very best and MARKETABLE beauty image they can.

Here are fifteen favorite makeup tips collected from an exceptionally talented group of top professional celebrity makeup artists to the stars.

Money is no object...

Although many of us have budgets that narrow our choice, whatever beauty products have made a celebrity's "short list", is truly among the best available. Many celebrities have the financial means to try everything from the most expensive cosmetic product lines, to the least expensive. Money is not a limitation so they are not forced to compromise their choice. In saying that, the product they use is probably one of the top performing products in its category.

We all have a celebrity that inspires us.

Usually we will pay more attention to celebrities that, in some way, we can relate to. Maybe its their style or personality or maybe something else, but when we see them, something resonates with us and we make note of their hair, makeup, clothing event etc.

In my case, Gwyneth Paltrow, Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Aniston, and Faith Hill are four celebrities that get my attention. Most of the time, their stellar beauty style and fashion sense, gets my attention and inspires me. Whether that inspiration is in the form of makeup, hair, clothing, or whatever, its a fun way to challenge my creativity.

Celebrity makeup tips will work for you too.

You may think star quality is out of your reach, but many of the stars although attractive, often are not the exceptional beauties you think they are.

This is NOT a slight against them, I am just simply impressing upon you, that their appearance on screen or in print, is a product of tremendous beauty expertise and resources (not to mention, time).

The entertainment industry whether film or fashion, is as scrutinizing as it gets when it comes to delivering beauty to us...and those beauty experts are masters at 'spinning' celebrities into the illusion of perfect beauty. So, pay attention to celebrity makeup tips when you come across them...they will be gold!
