    Marjorie Harvey Steve Harvey Show Makeup

    /

    Did you catch Marjorie and Lori Harvey on The Steve Harvey Show today? I just happened to catch the latest episode while getting my gel nails filled. The mom-daughter duo embarked on a 21-day fitness transformation with another mother-daughter team: Ellen and Lana Ector of Gymnastics Fitness. Marjorie opted for a Gucci Resort 2016 Chantilly-Lace Embroidered Dress to showcase her enviable bod as well as an equally splendid beatdown by makeup artist Courtney Gower. The details as follows:

    Fish Mooney Gotham Makeup Look for #Gotham Season 1

    /

    Blaq Vixen Beauty breaks down Fish Mooney Gotham makeup look by celebrity makeup artist John Perkins. Is Fox’s new hit show “Gotham” a must-see for you on Monday nights at 8/7c? If not, here’s a reason to watch: Jada Pinkett Smith. As Gotham’s feisty and fashion-forward crime lord Fish Mooney, Pinkett-Smith is utterly delicious. She satisfies my desires for all things dark and dangerous. And of course, as I am in love with her wardrobe! According to costume designer Lisa Padovani, Jada’s leather and metallic dress as “80’s Versace/Mugler inspired.” Three parts Stephanie “Queenie” St. Clair, Griselda Blanco and Norma Desmond, I love that Jada is on this show. I love that she…

    Li Bingbing Vampy Lip in Transformers

    /

    A Blaq Vixen Beauty exclusive: how to get Li Bingbing vampy lip from Transformers: Age of Extinction There’s nothing like a good vampy lip, no? Did you love the blackened burgundy pout Li Bingbing wore in Transformers: Age of Extinction. Her lipstick and her inky-black feathered gaze (the eyeliner is Marc Jacobs Magic Marc’er Precision Pen in Blacquer) inspired me to write this post. In this fourth installment, Bingbing plays CEO Su Yueming of the Chinese factory KSI contracted to build their human-created Transformers. Truly, Yueming is a boss after my heart – even if she was written from a shrewd businesswoman to a modern dragon lady stereotype. Regrettably, this pointless and offensive decision contributed…

    Keri Hilson Think Like a Man Too LA Premiere Makeup

    /

    Keri Hilson by Gaby Ramos Torrell: Giorgio Armani, Kevyn Aucoin, Make Up For Ever, MAC Cosmetics, Makeup Designory (MUD) and Ardell Lashes Say what you will but Keri Hilson is such a gorgeous woman! For the LA premiere of “Think Like a Man Too,” the singer/songwriter tapped her glam squad to beautify her for the red carpet. Celebrity makeup artist Gaby Ramos Torrell chose to enhance Keri’s natural beauty with subtle, smoky eyes, nude lips and an unnamed cheek highlighter (I say it’s probably Scott Barnes Special Effects Illuminating Loose Powder in 24KT Bronze based on her previous beauty breakdowns). Here’s the rest of the look: face.  Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk…
