Jessica Paré
Chanel celebrity makeup artist Kate Lee used Rouge Allure Luminous Intense Lip Colour in Coromandel ($34 at chanel.com)-a creme texture orange-red hue - for Jessica Pare’s poppy statement mouth. "I didn't want to use a matte shades as I was trying to avoid any product that would make the look retro as opposed to modern,” she told us. After prepping her skin with a moisturizing serum, Lee used a lightweight foundation with SPF to create a flawless base. Right before she walked out the door, the look was finished by adding a tiny amount of Cle de Peau Translucent Powder ($105 at neimanmarcus.com) “to the top off the hairline, tip of the nose and chin to diffuse the light.”

Nicole Kidman's Sleek and Polished Strands
Celebrity hairstylist David Babaii used ITampLY's Pure Water Drops Serum and Pure Texture ($31 italyhairfashion.com for locations) to create Nicole Kidman’s sleek, polished look.
