As a celebrity make-up artist I was known as the “Queen of False Eye Lashes.” I was working with Bobbi Brown and would get requested to put on the eye lashes for the models all of the time.  Unfortunately, the glue used to put them on eventually leaves your lashes looking sparse.

Several companies released eye lash growers, Jan Marini, Revitalash, Lilash, just to name a few.  Tried them all and saw a little growth.  Then news came out that Allergan was in the process of clinical trials…which meant they were in the works of releasing the ultimate eye lash grower yet.  The key ingredient that “Latisse” contains is lumigan which was originally used to help glaucoma patients.  These patients were finding that their eyelashes were growing at such length they had to cut them.  WOW!

I’ve been using it for almost 2 weeks.  Latisse is only available with a prescription.  This is to ensure proper application and growth.  If you are interested in getting a prescription call Dr. Celia Brown at: 818-222-8232

I’m so excited to get my lashes to this length!

Naomi Watts is expecting her second baby with longtime love Liev Schreiber. Seen here in New York at the premiere of Australia, Baz Lurhman’s newest epic feature, and out to support her best pal and also new mommie, Nicole Kidman.

Her face looks flawless on and off the screen and her pregnancy has made her skin even more radiant than ever. To get a gorgeous glow like Naomi’s start with a face cream or tinted-mositurizer with SPF. Coming from Australia Naomi knows the importance of preventing your skin from sun damage and that’s the first thing she puts on her face before applying anything else.

Cover up blemishes with a light concealer and be sure to choose a color that matches your skin tone. Use a brush to apply and blend by tapping around the blemish using your ring or index finger until the color has disappeared into your skin. Bobbi Brown has great concealers that give you great coverage and the colors work well on any skin tone.

To get beautiful color on your cheeks try a cream stick and use your fingers to blend on the apple of your cheeks.  NARS has a great selection of colors, my favorite, now available in a Multiple Stick is Orgasm. This color looks great on everyone and is also a “beauty must have” for Naomi.

Naomi’s eyes look pretty in warm browns, & apricots. A strong brown eyeliner brings the focus back to the eyes and make the green sparkle even more. The Santa Fe at Sunset Eye shadow Palette in color’s that will warm up any complexion.

My sister swears by this product and started using the original lash product years ago when it was first introduced. I have seen her lashes go from barely there to asking her if she has false lashes on. Unfortunately not all of us are blessed with thick, gorgeous lashes and as much as the look of wearing false lashes looks amazing, too much of that can take its toll.

Marini Lash is a Non-prostaglandin Eyelash formulation that contains a Proprietary Peptide as well as other essential ingredients for creating healthy, beautiful lashes.  There have been a lot of other companies who have tried to replicate Jan’s eyelash revitalizer but none have come close.
