Ciara On Creating Her “Natural Glam” Makeup NARS

I’m a very natural glam kind of girl. I’m obsessed with the Radiant Creamy Concealer in particular. I’m really big on concealer — it’s amazing how much of a pop and lift concealer can give to your face when you put it under your eyes or T-zone. I’ve always been into that; my makeup artist Yolonda [Frederick] is one of the quintessential examples of what a beautiful woman is, and she’s always shown me the best tricks: A good mascara and a peachy nude lip are all I need for a natural glam. And if you want, you can add a little pop of blush to the cheeks. And then when it comes to showtime, that’s when you get to play and be more dramatic. Don’t hold back on the drama! That’s how I approach my show makeup. I love a dramatic eye since it does something different to you when you get on stage, and your features are really accentuated on camera.
