Makeup Tips from the Set with Celebrity Make Up Artist Kim Greene
Iʼm in Miami shooting the new Charlieʼs Angels pilot, so of course Iʼm thinking about how to keep the Angels looking dry & beautiful in all this heat & humidity.
These tips will help keep your makeup in place when you are warm from the weather, being active or during “the change”. Start by using a natural astringent like Witch Hazel to remove excess oils from your skin. It really feels refreshing too. Apply Rice Powder. It absorbs oil & sets your makeup so it will stay put. Young Blood Cosmetics has a wonderful Mineral Rice Setting Powder that uses rice starch, corn starch & minerals & is 100 % talc free. It comes in three colors.
Thereʼs also an old favorite of mine, Palladio Rice Powder. You see this in a lot of professional makeup bags on set. You can re-apply all day without it getting cakey. Really pretty packaging too. Thereʼs another product I love called “Cool Flash” by Skindinavia. You spray it on your whole face after applying your makeup for “heat resistant” hold. Itʼs oil free natural & organic.
Have a great day & stay dry!
