Sundance Film Festival: Kate Bosworth’s look by Kelsey Deenihan for Votre Vu

Makeup Artist Kelsey Deenihan for Votre Vu created the look for Kate Bosworth for her press events at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival.

Check out Deenihan’s tips for getting Bosworth’s looks from the Festival!

  • For the premiere of “Black Rock” at the Sundance Film Festival I prepped Kate’s face by using a combination of different Votre Vu products to create the perfect canvas ready for the makeup application.
  • I started off by massaging “ATTENTIVE Creme de Jour for Sensitive Skin” all over the face and neck. This cream is great because it calms the skin and replenishes moisture – especially in these weather conditions.
  • To keep the under-eyes moisturized, I lightly smoothed into the skin “Tout le Monde Antioxidant Eye Gelee.”
  • Next I applied Votre Vu Sensational Eyes Eye Primer in Medium on lids for a perfect way to keep eye shadow on all day – the perfect base.
  • To finish prepping the face for makeup I dabbed a drop of the “Attentive Serum Delicat Pour Le Visage” into the skin and massaged starting at the center of the face and moving outward.
  • Kate has amazing skin so she really doesn’t need a heavy foundation. To set the foundation I dusted on Votre Vu Mineral Powder in Light all over the face.
  • For the premiere I wanted Kate’s makeup to be fresh and natural but with a bold classic red lip. The perfect base for the lipstick is the Votre Vu Champagne Kisses Lip Treatment. I didn’t line Kate’s lips so the Champagne Kisses pulled double duty by moisturizing and preventing the lipstick from bleeding out.

  • For this look, we started off by prepping the face similar as I did for her evening look above. Kate was doing a full day of press for her movie “Black Rock” here at Sundance so we needed the skin to be extremely hydrated to prevent the makeup from looking heavy, especially in this freezing dry air.
  • I started off by massaging “ATTENTIVE Creme de Jour for Sensitive Skin” all over the face and neck. This cream is great because it calms the skin and replenishes moisture – especially in these weather conditions.
  • To keep the under-eyes moisturized, I lightly smoothed into the skin “Tout Le Monde Antioxidant Eye Gelee.”
  • Next I applied Votre Vu Sensational Eyes Eye Primer in Medium on lids for a perfect way to keep eye shadow on all day – the perfect base.
  • To finish prepping the face for makeup I dabbed a drop of the “Attentive Serum Delicat Pour Le Visage” into the skin and massaged starting at the center of the face and moving outward.”
  • To make sure Kate’s lips were moisturized and smooth I applied the Champagne Kisses lip treatment. This prevented the elements from really chapping the lips.

In My ZÜCA: The Makeup Show LA 2011 Edition

I finally had a chance this morning to sit down and go through all of my new goodies I grabbed from The Makeup Show LA this past weekend.

In no particular order…..

OCC Lip Tars: Beta, Interlace, Reverb, Lo-Fi, Analogue, and Tone

My friend and owner of Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics, David Klasfled, introduced me to their latest 6 colors added to their infamous OCC Lip Tar Line.  I cannot wait to put these in action!

Kissable Couture Set

I snagged this set from Celebrity Makeup Artist AJ Crimson, creator of Kissable Couture. I love gloss.

MAKE UP FOR EVER: Aqua Eyes and Pigment

From MAKE UP FOR EVER, I purchased #8 and #17 Aqua Cream and #18 Pigment Purs in addition to a new Flash Colour Palette (mine was pretty worn out so time to replace it!).

Beauty Blenders

I’m excited to use Beauty Blenders more often.

FACE atelier Ultra Foundation

My most used colors in my kit from FACE atelier Cosmetics are #1, #2, and #4 Ultra Foundation.

Embryolisse 24 Hour Miracle Cream

Can’t forget a skin care staple! I don’t leave home without Embryolisse 24 Hour Miracle Cream and I snagged a travel size, perfect for my kit!

Yaby Cosmetics

I worked the Yaby Cosmetics booth with founder and fabulous makeup artist, Liz Yu. She threw a couple of items my way for helping her out. I picked up the Finishing Touch Highlighter Palette, Dramatically Neutral Palette, and a popular show item, Heated Eyelash Curler.

jeune d' age organics

Jeune d’ age organics was not at The Makeup Show, but I met with the owner, Michael Lamb, along with owner of Purely

Diamond Perfect Finish

Cosmetics, Robyn Bloom, Saturday night and had a blast talking shop. In June of last year, I wrote this post about a favorite skin care item of mine, Pumpkin Peel from Jeune d’ age. I’m looking forward to checking out the Acne Cleanser and the Marin Toner Mister.

Robyn Bloom introduced me to Purely Cosmetics Diamond Perfect Finish. I’m excited to put this powder to use because it already works great on my skin. I carried it around with me in my purse during my weekend in LA.
