MARKT’S FRESH FACE: Addison Timlin

Despite the fact that she lives in Los Angeles and is playing a Hollywood starlet in the fourth season of Showtime’s Californication, Addison Timlin is no California girl. In fact, far from it. At just 19 years old, her loyalty to her hometown of New York City goes pretty deep. Proof? After moving to LA just this summer, Timlin already misses the subway. (Now that’s love…) “There’s just something so serene and freeing about hoping on the train and going wherever,” she says. This admission might have something to do with the fact that like most city kids, Timlin doesn’t have a license—yet. She’s currently taking drivers ed, an experience she sums up in two words: “It’s absurd.” She’s also learning a thing or two about beauty in her new life. “On the set of Californication, I would just watch the hairstylist and makeup artist work. Whatever they did was always a lot better than what I knew how to do,” she says. It’s this honesty and desire to learn that made her the perfect subject for hairstylist Mark Townsend and makeup artist Robin Black. Here, they take her through all the stages of fame—from budding ingénue to bonafide movie star—and give her the looks to match.

The Ingenue

WHAT ROBIN DID: Kept things unfussy and beautiful with a layer of lotion for a slight sheen, followed by tinted moisturizer and a sweep of creamy bronzer.

WHAT ADDISON THOUGHT: “This shot was an ah-ha moment for me! I never wear my hair up and with this one, I was like, ‘Oh look, there’s my face.’ I’ve been wearing my hair up ever since.”
