Audrina Patridge’s Makeup Secrets Revealed

The Hill’s Audrina Patridge revealed some of her makeup secrets to Allure magazine. Here’s what she said:

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 just a tiny bit to darken it. If I mess up, I’ll just smudge the line with my finger and put eyeshadow over it. At night, I’ll switch to green, violet, or blue liner, and make it thick on 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 MAC 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.”

Below are some recent pics of Audrina hosting an evening at Christian Audigier The Nightclub in Las Vegas.

Celebrity Budget Beauty Tips

We all want to look as fabulous as our favorite celebrities but we don’t all have the millions that celebs have for pricey treatments and products. Some celebs are down to earth and offer some budget-friendly beauty tips.

Leighton Meester gives her hair a lift by washing her hair in a special way, “When you have a lot of buildup, shampoo your hair when it’s dry, then rinse. This prevents the water from diluting the cleanser. It gets the job done faster.”

Kim Kardashian gets her radiant looks from lots of beauty sleep, “Just sleep. Sleep is the best beauty advice I could give anyone…And use a satin pillowcase. It prevents wrinkles and keeps your hair from breaking.”

Another great tip is from Shayne Lamas, who says to mix a little bit of sand with a blob of body cream, and then use it to exfoliate your hands.

Gabrielle Union beats the frizzies by teasing her hair up high. “By the time it falls, it’s look right. At the start of the night mines super-high.”

To help de-puff baggy eyes, Selma Blair takes a cool shower, “When I wake up bloated, that really helps me de-puff.”

These are great tips, and best of all they’re all free!
