Video: How To Wear No-Makeup Makeup

Beauty editors have mastered it. So have the French.

The "it" in question is no-makeup makeup, and it's a focus of our Truth or Bare theme (launching tomorrow). The goal is to achieve sparkling eyes, glowing skin and supple lips, while tricking everyone into thinking you’re wearing barely any makeup (even though you may or may not be wearing lots).

Here, we caught up with New York make artist Tyron Machhausen at our Truth or Bare shoot, to explain how he achieved three easy "no-makeup" looks, each distinctly different, yet essentially barely there.

Good Impressions: The Impressionist Makeup Trend

From clothing to the makeup, Impressionism was celebrated on the spring runways by mixing textures and colors to create light and movement.

On the runways, makeup artists used purple shadows and many different textures—from matte shadows to highlighters to eye gloss—to create light and movement. Here, we catch up with makeup artist Sylvia Del Orto at our Beauty as Art cover shoot for the skinny on how to score this gorgeous look. For the step-by-step and complete list of products, visit Get the Look: Good Impressions.

Venus Envy! The Renaissance Makeup Trend

Like a portal to the Italian Renaissance, spring's fashion runways were graced with poetic goddesses radiating with dewy skin and rosy cheeks. Inspired by Renaissance painters like Sandro Botticelli, these modern madonna's personify primavera. "A dusting of vibrant blush [like Benefit's new Thrrrob powder box] on the apples of your cheeks makes you look alive. The effect is sexy, but still innocent, which is right on trend for spring!," say Jean and Jane Ford, co-creators of Benefit. Here, we catch up with makeup artist Sylvia Del Orto at our Beauty as Art cover shoot for the skinny on how to look like a goddess.

POP ART - Wear the Trend + How-To Video

On the Spring runways, eyes and lips popped with unexpected jolts of Pop Art color—from sky blue lids to poppy red lips. An ode to the Pop Art movement of the 60's, this trend is demanding to be noticed. "This spring, eyes are seen in Technicolor—the look is lighthearted, fun, and comes in a rainbow of hues. I use Flash Color on lids to give women a pop of color that not only looks radiant, but also puts a smile on their face," says Dany Sanz, celebrity makeup artist and creator of Make Up For Ever. Here, we catch up with makeup artist Sylvia Del Orto at our Beauty as Art cover shoot for the skinny on how to pop your look. For step-by-step instructions visit Get the Look: Pop Culture.
