Lauren Conrad's Make-up Artist Amy Nadine Spills Her Make-up Secrets!

Unless you've been living under a rock for the past few years, you've most likely seen Hills starlet Lauren Conrad's face just about everywhere - on the small screen, gracing magazine covers galore, rocking the red carpet at awards shows, in the tabloids, on gossip blogs, etc., etc. Having said that, there's no doubt you've noticed that more times than not, Lauren's face looks flawlessly made up, sporting that perfect California glow paired with cat-eyed liquid liner and glossy, nude lips. Yes, Lauren's got beauty that's all her own, but there is one woman that can take partial credit for Lauren looking so good on those camera-ready occasions, and that's celebrity make-up artist Amy Nadine!
How did you get connected with with Lauren?
A couple years ago, Lauren wanted to try a new make-up artist and I had worked with her publicist before on other clients, so she tried me out on a photo shoot for Entertainment Weekly and liked me!
Obviously, Lauren's signature makeup look is one that tons of young women would love to emulate - can you let us in on some of the staple products you use on a regular basis to create that look for her?
Black liquid liner, tons of individual lashes, nude lip gloss, bronzer and apricot blush.
Lauren's look at the MTV Movie Awards recently was a little bit of a departure from her standard nude-hued face. Who was responsible for that idea, and what products did you use for that look?
That was Lauren's idea and I loved it! She really wanted something bold, inspired by the crimson roses in her Moschino dress, so we used Mark Dew Drenched lip color in Juicy, the same color that we used on the models in her fashion show.
Lauren's a spokeswoman for Avon's mark. Cosmetics, so do you use a lot of mark. products on Lauren on a regular basis? Which mark. products does she actually wear? Do you like using mark?

Has Lauren's beauty sense really evolved since you started working with her, or has she always been pretty in tune with applying her own make-up and what looks good?
Lauren is very skilled at applying her own make-up and has always been. She does her own liquid liner seven days a week. Unlike some of the other girls, she didn't have a make-up artist or hair stylist on the show, because she wanted it to be a REALITY show! I think she did an amazing job. I've taught her about contouring and little technical things, but she has always known what looks good on her and what doesn't... she's known her face for 23 years, a little longer than I've known it!
