Keri Hilson and MAC

Have you ever wondered how MAC products look on celebrities for photo shoots, television appearances and music videos? Well, here's a shining example of a MAC celebrity look from one of MAC's amazing artists.



Sr. Artist Romero Jennings did the makeup for new music sensation Keri Hilson for her appearances on BET’s 106th & Park, and MTV TRL. She’s promoting the video for her first single, “Energy”. If you’re not sure who she is, she was the girl who sang in Timbaland’s “The Way I Are”, and she was the love interest in Usher’s “Love In This Club” Video. But most importantly, she’s made a name for herself as a songwriter. She’s written for Justin Timberlake, The Pussycat Dolls, Britney Spears and Usher.

She’s getting ready to drop her first solo album in September, so she’s making the rounds to all the music video shows. Her appearance on MTV TRL will air on Wednesday (tomorrow). Here is the list of products Sr. Artist Romero Jennings used on her:

FACE:
Prep + Prime Skin
Moisture Blend Foundation NC42,NC43 and NW45 Matte Bronzing Powder
Blush in Sunbasque and Frankly Scarlet
Mineralized Skinfinish Natural in Medium and Dark for contouring

EYES:
Eyeshadows in Saddle, Blacktied, Cream de Violet, Blacktrack Fluidline Gel Liner
Prep + Prime Lash Primer, Plushlash Mascara in Plushblack and Fascinating pencil

LIPS:
Spice and Plum Lip Liner

ADDITIONAL PRODUCTS USED FROM ELECTROFLASH:
Mineralized Eye Shadow Duo in Love Connection and Two to Glow
Lipstick in Mellow Mood
Lipglass in Major Minor

This is a narration on how Sr. Artist Romero Jennings created the look you're seeing above:

1. The skin was primed with Prep + Prime Skin and polished with a sheer coat of Moistureblend Foundation that is highlighted with Moisturelush Eye Cream and contoured Matte Bronzer.
2. Shadows were pumped up with Creme de Violet used as a liner/shadow under eye while Saddle and Black Tied shadows frame the eye.

3. Pump up lashes top and bottom with 2 coats of prep and prime mascara.
4. Then add one heavy winter coat of Plushlash mascara in Plushblack.
5. Add the #7 lashes which Romero cut into fine pieces and place on the top lashes.
