Makeup Tips from "Dancing with the Stars"

I'm obsessed with the show "Dancing with the Stars" and I love seeing the makeup on the celebrities week after week. I actually even dig the makeup artists so much, I've even become a fan of their Facebook page and am not embarrassed to admit it (well, sorta).

I do admit wholeheartedly, though, that the makeup looks on "DWTS" are totally over the top, but since the stars are on camera, you have to just embrace that fact and love it anyway. I do.

Here are some of the makeup tips I've learned from their Facebook page, courtesy of "DWTS" Head Makeup Artist, Melanie Mills:

Bristol's smoky eye was created by using Kevyn Aucoin The Precision Eye Definer in Sparkle, $27 all over the lid first, then MAC Loose Pigment in Dark Soul, $19.50 was blended all over and under her eyes, says Mills. The eyes were finished off with Ardell # 33 Lashes, $4.99. "We went for smoky and sexy for the rumba," she says.

To create Jennifer Grey's beautiful nude lips, use the Kevyn Aucoin Lip Pencil in Bare, $24 with Nars Lipstick in Barbarella, $24 and Girlactik Beauty Star Gloss in Nude, $14, says Mills.

And P.S. "everyone keeps saying how young Jennifer Grey looks! And she does! First of all, she has excellent skin in the first place by using Dr. Lancer's GLO2W Kit (Products range from $30 - $125)," she says.To recreate Brandy's lip look, use Makeup For Ever Aqua Lip in #2C, $17 with MAC Lacquer in Klish Klash, $13.55 and a touch of NYX Diamond Sparkle Gloss in Gold Sparkle, $4.99, says Mills.

To get a bronzed glow like the "DWTS" clan use "St. Tropez Skin Finishing Bronzing Mist Spray, $35 ... has anyone else noticed how fresh Florence Henderson looks? She is loving St. Tropez and is glowing," says Mills.
