It's All About Beauty!

Last week I did makeup for a new Pantene commercial for the U.K.. It was an amazing experience, and what makeup artist doesn't like a project to be all about beauty!

It is a fantastic experience when a team of people come together, all "tops" in their fields, and have one goal in common to make the most beautiful commercial and enjoy the process. OK so that's 2 goals.

Unfortunately I can't show you any images from the spot just yet, it's all highly confidential until the campaign is revealed. So until next time I will leave you with the thoughts of beautiful long blonde hair (that we all dream of) so shiny and silky that it will turn heads every where.

Check out Dennis Quaid giving Ellen money!

I was back at The Ellen Show with Dennis Quaid. He made a special appearance on behalf of Hasbro and the G.I. Joe brand to give Ellen a whopping $250,000 donation for her Toys for Tots. Dennis also presented Ellen with her very own action hero doll. It was great being there as usual, and whether I’m watching at home or from the studio when Ellen spreads a little holiday cheer to one of her viewers that is having a rough time of it, I get teary eyed. I know you know what I mean!

Be sure to check out Dennis Quaid on Ellen today and see all the fantastic things the audience of Day 10 of the 12 Days of Give Aways got. Amazing!!!!

Until today's airing, check out this hilarious video from the last time that David and I visited Ellen's studio.

Holiday Pucker

One beauty trend that is sure to heat things up this holiday season are red lips. The thing to remember about red lipstick is that it can make or break a look.

Here are some rules when applying red lipstick:

1. Use a lip liner that is close to the color of your natural lip, this way you can get your shape defined and if there are any mistakes it's easier to clean up.
2. Fill in the entire lip with the lip liner to get the same texture and shade.
3. For extra insurance against feathering, use DuWop Reverse lip liner on the outside edge of your natural lip liner.
4. Now fill the entire area in with your RED lipstick. Blot with a tissue to set.
5. Finish with gloss if desired, but remember the time of day and occasion you are attending.

Red lipstick quote of the century and sound advice: “Where lipstick is concerned, the important thing is not color, but to accept God's final word on where your lips end.”
Jerry Seinfeld

Fabulous Friday: Winter Blush

With winter weather wearing away at our summer sun and color, it's the perfect time to break out beautiful bright blushes.

SPOTTED ON: Beyonce

WHY WE LOVE IT: Winter means less sun (and paler skin)—which is all the more reason to give your cheeks extra love. Layer blush on the apples of your cheeks, and blend it outwards along your temples for a festive, edgier look.

INSTYLE FAVORITE: Maybelline New York Dream Mousse Blush in Soft Plum ($7, walgreens.com). (via InStyle)

One of Terri's favorites is the DuWop Bronze Rush. To find out more of Terri's favorite click here.
