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.

Kelly’s makeup artist, Michelle Champagne, gives details on what colors she applies on Kelly day to day.

Michelle says, “I use smokey earthy tones to contour the eyes. The brow bone is usually highlighted in a bisque with the slightest shimmer. The lid of the eye, usually shaded with a hit of copper or ginger to accentuate her blue eyes and make the white of the eyes brighter. Under the eye is shaded with MAC paint pot in Constructivist.”

For lips Kelly’s makeup artist lines in a neutral skin tone like MAC Spice or Bobbi Brown Brownie liner.

“We use Scott Barnes Lipslicks, all of them are gorgeous, especially Suggestive. MAC MidiMave lipstick is one of my favorites, along with MAC Tinted Lipglass in C-Thru, LycheeLux, Florabundance, and Underage.”
