Jillian Dempsey shares her Smashing Beauty Advice
We here at The Fashionable Housewife were SO excited to be able to participate in a round table discussion with Avon’s Global Creative Color Director (and Hollywood makeup artist) Jillian Dempsey! Not only was she super nice but she also had some great tips and tricks for us regular gals in our normal lives. She shared new product info, opinions on her “it” colors and even some “looks” for the upcoming Summer and Wedding Seasons… and because we love you ladies, we share. Check out some of the awesome information that Jillian shared with us this week. She was sure to include the great products from Avon that she helped to develop!
Get Jillian’s Spring/ Summer Look:
To create this Spring/Summer 2011 look:
1.Apply Jillian Dempsey for Avon Professional Eye Smokifier in Bronze along the upper lash line and circle around near the inner edge of the eye.
2.When applying True Color Eyeshadow Quad in Sandy Corals, apply the darker color in the quad to the outer edges of the eye so the shadow and eye liner meet in the middle of the eye and blend seamlessly. Use the coral color in the quad as a base color on the lid.
3. Finish the look with a pink Be Blushed Cheek Color and SuperSHOCK Lip Shine SPF 15 in Popsicle for a soft pop of color on the lips.
Get Jillian’s Wedding Look:
To create this romantic Bridal look:
1.Apply the base color of the True Color Eyeshadow Quad in Mocha Latte all over the eyelid in a half moon shape.
2.Use the dark color in the crease of the eyelid to contour and underneath the lower lash line for a softer line.
3. Apply the lightest color in the quad on the brow bone to highlight the bone.
4. Accent in center of the eyelid with a shimmering color.
5. Finish the look with True Color Blush in Antique Rose and a warm lip color like SuperSHOCK Lip Shine SPF 15 in Bronze Blitz.
Jillian was confident that the makeup looks she created were on trend for this coming Spring and Summer. What is her “IT” color this season? She had to go with Popscicle and of course recommended her SuperSHOCK Lip Shine SPF 15 in Popsicle (available the end of June 2011), something we are excited to try (see Rachel McAdams in previous post). What does she recommend to keep our Summer makeup in place? A dusting of translucent powder will help keep our newfound makeup looks from melting away. And something she totally recommends? Take care of your skin and be sure to find that product that fits into your regimine with an SPF.

Thanks for the great advice.. love the summer look!
I have a talant for makeup, and can make up a girl for her wedding. I would love to open a wedding store, and add makeup as part of the service. There isn’t anyone that does that here in the USA.
Nice Picture of you there
