Tina Turnbow

She's in high demand for print, red carpet, and running from show to show for fashion week - but Tina Turnbow, celebrity makeup artist to the stars (Mariska Hargitay, Amanda Peet, Claire Danes, Ivanka Trump, Keri Russell, Christina Hendricks just to name a few) took a time out out to tell little ol me, what her favorite beauty looks were for fall. 

JNSQ: What is your signature look for fall?

TT: My favorite look for fall is a mix of jewel tones--forest green, purple, bronze and then a touch of gold or a matte honey brown. I always like the mix of a color with a neutral..and of course i'm very fond of NAVY! it is the most eye enhancing, brightening spirit-lifting color for the eyes. Try a silvery taupe with navy--as i did on Mariska Hargitay from this years Oscar red carpet..Or last night for the premiere of "The Social Network" I applied deep green, rust and gold to Brenda Song one of it's lovely stars.

JNSQ: What are your favorite products to use - for achieving these looks?

TT: Sue Devitt makes an awesome fat smudgey pencil--i use Golf Reef a lot! Try creating a smokey eye using just pencils. Urban Decay 24/7, Almay Blendable or KORRES--they have a great dark navy and all natural ingredients. For Brenda Song's "Social Network" red carpet look I used Stila's deep green eye pencil in Forest and new Nars duo in Rajasthan and on cheeks - Deep Throat blush by NARS. For lips--i'm in love with Korres's new liquid lipstick - the Nude #30 in particular. It has more pigment and is not as goopy as gloss.

JNSQ: Any other tips to finish the look? 

TT: I think a deep taupe, grey or chocolate nail looks chic with this. How striking when you are wrapping your wool knit scarf around your pretty face! xxtina t
