Fans of The Hills may be divided between Team Lauren and Team Heidi, but everyone concedes that Audrina Patridge has some pretty amazing eyes.  Allure Magazine asked her to share her lining and shadowing tricks - totally unscripted - or so we think.

My eyes are hazel, but sometimes they’ll look more brown, amber, or green.  When my hair is dark, it brings out the green. (My hair is naturally dirty blonde.)

I love black eyeliner.  I put it on the inner rims of my lash lines, top and bottom.  If I want a more dramatic look, I’ll go back over the top lash line again just a tiny bit to darken it.  If I mess up, I’ll just smudge the line with my finger and put eye shadow over it.  At night, I’ll switch to green, violet, or blue liner, and make it thick on the top and winged out at the ends.  And I always stick to pencil - lately I’ve been loving Maybelline because I never have to touch it up.

For shadow, I use M.A.C. All That Glitters as the base and a dark brown or maroon right in the crease.  And mascara’s a must.  Too Faced Lash Injection makes my lashes long and full.  When I go out, I add Benefit Gilded Highlighter on my brow bones.  It really makes your eyes stand out!

Too Faced’s Lash Injection.

Super-volumizing and lengthening mascara.

This exclusive, 3D formula actually builds tubes around each lash. This ” Lash Injection ” has unique elastic polymers that curl, fatten, and stretch far beyond the natural lash. This adds extreme volume, curl and length for that costly lash extension look without any of the hassle, pain or commitment. . You will no longer see clumps and lumps - but long, gorgeous, fluttering, new and improved eyelashes.

With a flick of the specially-designed “GIANT” wand lashes will be injected with indelible, weather-proof color. Substantial percentages of jojoba and vitamin E deeply condition lashes to prevent breakage and damage that can result in broken or sparse lashes. Easily removable with soap and warm water or eye make-up remover, this amazing mascara doesn’t dissolve and smudge like any ordinary mascara. Lash Injection comes off in tiny tubes, like little lash socks!

I am a total gloss junkie, I carry at least 10 varieties of lip gloss, balm, and lipstick with me in my purse at all times. I love experimenting with new products and colors and I can’t wait to try MAC Tendertones, I usually need lip balm because I can’t seem to stop licking my lips. I think it is near genius to have a lip balm that instead of just a tint has a full range of great colors.

Sexier on the lips than balm. Silkier than gloss. More protective than naked. A lipcolour that combines soft shine, easy glide, and double-smooth satin finish with an everyday sun protective formula. To treat your lips…Love ‘em tender.

Tendertone Lip Balm SPF 12

Your favourite M·A·C tinted lip balm makes its return this summer. Combines the look of a gloss and the benefits of a balm, with the protection of everyday SPF 12 sun protection. Smoothly satin in texture, and non-sticky. Provides just-enough colour. Conditions, moisturizes, helps to smooth and improve the look of the lips. Features a light, strawberry-kiwi flavour.

Just in time for Summer MAC is releasing Dazzleglass a brand new super shiny and brilliant lip gloss. I have had a love hate relationship with MAC lipglass for years. I love how great the colors make your lips look but it drives me nuts that they are so sticky and my hair seems to get glued to my lips. These colors look great though and they claim to not be sticky so I am going to have to try them! If anyone has already gotten their hands on a tube let me know how you like it.

Electro-pearl atoms blast their light as Lipglass gets the dazzle treatment. High-shine + large particle quartz and opal crystal captured in a great new formula with light-reflecting, crystalline iridescence. To be this dazzling: that’s power.

Lipcolour that dazzles with light and shine to bring an exciting dimensional pop to your lips. Large particle pearls reflect and refract light to mimic the brilliance of quartz and opal crystal. Provides exceptional shine with a crystalline iridescence. Non-sticky, non-tacky, lightweight and moisturizing. Glides on. Wear alone, or layer over lipstick or Lipglass for dramatic effect.

I have been a long time fan of Viva Glam lipsticks. I love the color they choose and it’s nice to know that a little of your makeup indulgence is going to a great cause. MAC has recently released the newest in their Viva Glam collection and I love the color!

MAC Viva Glam

In 1994, M·A·C introduced VIVA GLAM, an outspoken deep red that was universal in its appeal and its glamour. In 1997, a second lipstick was created VIVA GLAM II, a lightly pinked mauve. VIVA GLAM III, a foxy brown plum lipstick was launched in 2000. VIVA GLAM IV, a heartful rose charged with gold, was introduced in March 2002. In March 2004, Viva Glam V makes its debut, a clear, smooth, pure neutral pink with a delicious Lustre finish! VIVA GLAM VI, the newest member of the VIVA GLAM family, is a warm terracotta-plum with pearl finish. Wear it alone or finish it off with a coordinating coat of VIVA GLAM VI Lipglass. In the spirit of all Viva Glam, every cent raised goes to the M·A·C AIDS Fund to support the fight against HIV/AIDS.

Last Friday I posted a Reader Request from Sarah asking for help finding the perfect red lipstick!  I gave her a few suggestions, and today she emailed back her verdict!

Hi Jocelyn!

I went to the MAC store this weekend - SUCCESS! I tried on a ton of shades (OK, maybe 5) and settled on your recommendation, Spice It Up! I love it, and have gotten several compliments on it already. It’s the perfect color and feels great!

I also bought a liner (Cremestick Liner, Red Enriched) — that boosts the red, and hopefully makes it last longer.
I know MAC has been around forever, I just wish I discovered it sooner - I could have saved a LOT of money!

Thanks for your help!

We recently received an email from Sarah, asking for help finding a new lipstick!  So let’s see if we can help her out!

Hello Make Her Up,

I’m wondering if you have any recommendations on good, deep brick red lipstick. I’ve bought several, and they all seem to be a bit purple/cold — I’m looking for a warmer shade! It seems like most of lipstick brands don’t carry this… and it’s so flattering! My ideal shade would also be a bit sheer.

Thank you!
S

Well Sarah, I’ve found three for you to take a look at!  When I’m shopping for lipstick, I always turn to MAC.  I haven’t found a lipstick yet that lasts longer, looks better, or feels better. 

MAC Lipstick: Colour plus texture for the lips. Stands out on the runway. Simmers on the street! What made M·A·C famous.

Check out these three colors I’ve chosen for you - let me know if you like any of them!

You can find MAC at most high-end stores, such as Macy’s or Nordstroms.  If you don’t have any near you, you can go here to purchase these online!

$14.00

UPDATE: Here’s a response from Sarah!

Thanks so much - I’ll def hit up the Mac store this weekend and let you know how it goes!

Have a good weekend!
