Looks We Love: Drew Barrymore
We are currently obsessing over Drew Barrymore—and the naturally gorgeous look she flaunted at The Late Show with David Letterman this week in New York City. We’re actually loving it so much that we tracked down the makeup artist behind the scenes, the talented Debra Ferullo, to give us the inside scoop on what products she used to enhance this bombshell’s beauty:
“I started by prepping her face with La Mer The Moisturizing Lotion. Then, I patted on primer [to help the look stay], followed by La Mer The Treatment Fluid Foundation.” [For a flawless complexion—and to avoid unsightly streaks—press or stipple the formula into skin with a damp round sponge, applying it only on the areas you need it most to keep the coverage from looking cakey.]
“I then lined her entire eye [upper and lower lashlines] with a Brown Eye Pencil by MAC and smudged it out [to soften it up a bit],” adds Ferullo. To give her gaze a more smoky effect, “I topped the liner with CoverGirl Shadow Blast Shadow Stick in Gold, and finished off the look with three coats of Fresh Supernova Mascara in Black.”
To mimic a naturally flushed look on her cheeks, “I used Smashbox Blush Rush in Bright Fuscia and applied it with a big, fluffy brush to give it a softer feel.” And to get that barely-there yet glossy lip, “I swiped on MAC Lipstick in Please Me and topped it off with CoverGirl Shine Blast Lip Gloss in Aglow.
Jet-laggin’
I spent last week in NYC working with the gorgeous Maggie Gyllenhaal and we were able to do a photo shoot for an upcoming cover of MARKTbeauty! The pictures are stunning and I cannot wait to get them up on the site!
I’m flying back to NYC tonight for 4 days then I fly back to LA for Emmy’s!
I can’t remember what time zone I’m in……
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.”

Addison Timlin 4
The Movie Star
WHAT ROBIN DID: Flushed the apples of the cheeks with a rosy blush and turned-out the mouth with red liner and a coating of satiny lipstick.
WHAT ADDISON THOUGHT: “Red lipstick makes me feel like I’m a little girl playing in my mommy’s makeup. But this became something very sexy and womanly with the hair and the black dress. I didn’t know I could pull it off.”

6 Picks with Addison Timlin
Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20 in Sand |
NARS Bronzing Powder in Laguna |
| “Creates the illusion that I have perfect skin without seeming like I have too much makeup on.” | “Makes me look like I’ve gone to Costa Rica and back in about five minutes. I always want to be more tan in the summer; I discovered this playing with makeup in Sephora.” |
L’eau D’Issey Eau de Toilette |
Oscar Blandi Pronto Dry Shampoo Aerosol Spray |
| “I’ve been wearing this scent for six years and I just don’t feel like myself without it. It feels clean, soft, feminine and pretty.” | “I love to shorten my getting ready time. If this mean means I can go another day without washing my hair, it’s the perfect product for me.” |
Candy |
Arcade Fire “The Suburbs” |
| “How much have I eaten today? You don’t even want to know. I’m not one of those people who wants to sit and have a piece of cake—I want Sour Patch Kids, Gummi Bears, lollipops, you name it. It’s a bit of a problem.” | “I’ve been listening to Arcade Fire since I was 15. I was introduced to their music during a very pivotal period of my life so I associate them with that time. I’m kind of connecting this new album with my new life out here in L.A.” |

The Bond Girl
WHAT ROBIN DID: Warmed up the skin with spray-on bronzer, sexed-up the eyes with brown and gold shadows and muted the lips with fleshy nude lipstick.

Technicolor
BEHIND THE BRUSHES: Makeup Artist Kathy Jeung
Inspired by: “The colors from the ’80s. I wanted to modernize that time when women would layer tons of colors on their faces in any kind of mish mash fashion and still look fabulous. I wanted to give that look both structure and softness.”
This summer: Working on the set of Transformers 3 as Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s personal makeup artist.
Beauty tip to live by: “Don’t overwhelm your face with color. Use this story to get giddy and excited, and then add a dash of color to your own look.
MAKEUP MOMENT
When you’re layering two colors of shadow, as Jeung did for this pink and orange look, “Try wetting your brush before applying powder shadow—it’s easier to draw a precise line, plus it helps it stay put. Or try loose powders, which have richly concentrated color and adhere well to the skin,” she says.

MAKEUP MOMENT
When the textures are complex, wild colors can still look subtle and seductive. “Try layering a matte cream shadow underneath an iridescent powder and visa versa—the combo punches up a look in a way a single product cannot,” says Jeung.
