News about Pat McGrath

Every June and January, Paris Fashion Week Men's takes place to showcase menswear collections for the upcoming seasons. Only a select few of industry insiders including journalists, buyers, celebrities and top clients are invited to the exclusive bi-annual event. Victoria Brynner, founder of luxury fashion's premiere celebrity casting agency Stardust Brands, shares her behind the scenes experience on what its like attending as "Hollywood's fashion broker."

Trendy hairstyles like fishtail braids, high ponytails, and top knots are often not possible for women with short hair. This season's trendiest red carpet 'do, however, works on all lengths. The 'wet look' has been all the rage with our favorite celebrities with short hair - from the Cannes Film Festival to the Met Gala. Read on for expert tips on how to achieve the style at home.

I would delete every edict informing women what they should and shouldn't be doing based on age and propriety, according to Hannah Betts (left). If something makes you happy, knock yourself out. Fashion styles change, technology advances, and trends shift, which means that the nifty little trick you mastered in 1994 now looks not only outdated, but also as if you've lost the plot. Here are the things you should avoid.

As Raye received her sixth British award of the night and grabbed her grandmother's hand, I felt the tears fall down my face. I spent the evening supporting Raye, not just because I'm a fan of her music, but also because she's honest, humble, and raw emotions spoke to me and every woman who has been told she can't, so she should move forward and show that she can. I couldn't help but wonder how her makeup stayed put as the tears welled up in her eyes. She had screamed on stage for a good two hours, had sung her heart out, and in her words, 'ugly,' she cried, but it hadn't budged at all. No panda eyes, no foundation streaks, and no eye bags were found, although there were no eye bags on display. I made it my mission to track down her makeup artist and ask her the all-important question. How did you make Raye's makeup waterproof? Raye's go-to MUA, who has been with the artist since 2017, author and guest judge on BBC1's Glow Up series one, Lan Nguyen-Grealis. Known for her glowing skin and creative looks this isn't the first time Lan's makeup has stood up against the Brit's water test — remember Paloma Faith's iconic rainfall performance in 2015, Lan was behind that look too — so what is this witchery? I wanted to know that mascara has the slightest dot of moisture.

There is but one lingering question that comes to mind post-Taylor Swift's recent NFL appearances (besides, um, "Anyone else also alarmingly invested in this Travis Kelce thing? "Most of her red lipstick is what she says." According to reports, Google searches for the exact hue she wore have risen 669 percent since she was first spotted wearing red lipstick again, and fan tweets of MY LIFETIME ILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU" have increased, as the people want answers, not me. It's a good coincidence that the Chiefs' signature color is red, providing Swift with ample opportunities to sport the bold shade while hanging in a box with Kelce's mother, just as she did for the Super Bowl in Las Vegas on Feb. 11.

Over the past few days, you've almost seen clips of the Maison Margiela Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2024 on the internet. If you're looking for a real-life porcelain doll effect on the runway models or simply intrigued with the presentation's theatrics, you are not alone. The show was full of attention-grabbing moments, including the unveiling of body hair with merkin underwear. "Margiela really said couture bush!" Andriana (abottegahoeneta) wrote on X, the X-preteneta version of Twitter. The model can be seen in the accompanying photograph from the runway in a transparent tulle skirt with faux pubic hair on full display.

There are certain beauty trends that seem to be on repeat. We've seen the viral glazed skin and, of course, glazed doughnut nails, from unofficial Queen of Glaze Hailey Bieber, and now is the time for the sheen to step up to the top of our cheeks as glazed blush takes center stage. "With the 'glazed' trend sweeping our skin and nail looks in 2023," Aimee Connolly, MUA and creator of Sculpted by Aimee, "it's no surprise" that we are now obsessed with how to recreate the style with our makeup bags." "Glazed blush is all about creating an ultra-flushed, luminous finish that can lift and brighten the face." Think glossy, balmy and radiant – and anything but minimal!And the best part? It can be used with any shade or skin type.

Hannah Betts, a beauty specialist, recommends a back-to-basics simplicity in the form of a stalwart, dog-days-of-winter new facial formula.

Grant Kenny started the New Year by heading to the beach for the first time. Together with his celebrity makeup artist girlfriend Stojanka Bulic, the singer and actress went out for a dive at a Queensland seaside location. As they gazed out to the ocean, the 60-year-old and his partner went for a dive and stopped to have a cuddle.

You've heard of the nipple lipstick theory, right? It's the belief that the most flattering neutral lip color is one that matches the shade of your nipples. Many makeup artists, including Alexis Oakley, told POPSUGAR, "If you're using this technique to look for a nude lipstick, it'll give you the perfect nude lipstick for your skin tone." Although this hack has been a go-to for years, you do not have to stand in front of a mirror naked to find your perfect lipstick match after all. Ashley Rebecca, a makeup artist, tells POPSUGAR that she'll rather look inside a client's inner lip to find their perfect lipstick match. "I'm obviously not able to see people's nipples at work, so I started using this method to show Black models and clients with darker skin tones how to get their desired nude shade," she says.

Is there any look Maya Jama can't pull off?The "Love Island" host has not only wowed legions of followers with her incredible array of looks on the reality show, but she is quickly becoming a style icon in the eyes of designer companies. And she's not afraid to try a fresh look. Jama has been selected as the face of Dolce & Gabbana and wows in the company's new fall/winter campaign, giving a fresh new twist on bombshell. Jama has a short, bouncing red hairdo in the style of Marilyn Monroe, and she's barely identifiable. Pat McGrath's seductive look is amplified thanks to smoky eye makeup and lustrous red lips. In the campaign video, she can be seen writhing on a black latex chaise longue to the sounds of The White Stripes, wearing a string of sexy outfits, including a fishnet minidress, red corset, and black mesh skirt and bralet. The campaign video includes still photographs from Stephen Miesel, a well-known fashion photographer, who have taken over billboards around the world.

Damian Hurley, 21, has been evictively following in his mother Elizabeth's footsteps in recent years, securing a slew of big-money fashion and television deals. After being on her side at glitzy occasions, actress Elizabeth, 58, raised her son as a single parent and he quickly developed a taste for the spotlight. Damian began his modelling career at the age of 17, and now has delved into acting and directing, with a total net worth of $500,000.

Cardi B is no stranger to the catsuit trend, but her mint green scheme, which perfectly matched a Hermès Kelly bag, was the focus of attention at Hot 107.9's Birthday Bash in Atlanta on June 17th. In the ensemble, which was custom ordered from Radiant by KOS and styled by Kollin Carter, Ash Bailey, and Jay Fontaine, the 30-year-old rapper stood out by a mile — as she often does — as she does. Cardi continued to hold her handbag even though performing onstage, bringing attention to the meticulous coordination of the look. Her long nails were the same shade as her lavish accessory, while Mia Jackson's pink curls emphasized her patent Christian Louboutin sandals. Cardi pounded on the diamond necklace, flashy timepiece, gold hoops, and her husband Offset's heart-shaped "Titanic" ring. Erika Lapearl achieved a soft glow, feminine look that spoke to the entire aesthetic, with Pat McGrath makeup and iENVY by KISS lashes, and she was fully covered in body glitter. Cardi performed a catsuit in New York just a few weeks back, but it was in a much more racier silhouette. The skintight style featured laced cutouts that revealed her tattoos and fell right in line with Julia Fox's new bum cutout trend, as seen by Julia Fox, Lizzo, and Gabrielle Union. Cardi's Whipshots campaign saw her in a whip cream-inspired white monokini dreamed up by Carter, and finished with Michael Schmidt rhinestone cat-eye sunglasses to match. Cardi is obviously not slowing down when it comes to giving her fans go-to-toe costumes that enthrall them and leave them wanting more.

If you missed the 2023 Met Gala on May 1st for some reason, let us fill you in on the key beauty moments that everyone can't avoid discussing. As a salute to the late designer, the subject was "Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty." Lil Nas X, then, was laying down a full body of paint and crystals while Pat McGrath was lending ice-prince realness. Florence Pugh exhibited a new buzz cut, which was complemented by a stunning headpiece. But it was also one of the night's best moments to do, when Doja Cat appeared on the red carpet as Choupette, Lagerfeld's cat. No, we're not just talking about some cat ears and fuzzy paws. The rapper was in full facial prosthetics, and even answered a few interview questions with a simple "meow." Malina Stearns, a special effects makeup artist, took a few attempts to get it right before the actress wore it. "I would give a big shout out to @mannylemusfx for executing the molds and completing a last-minute clay pour so I could do a resculpt and make some changes," Stearns' caption said. "Thanks to my buddy @jackeffects, who was able to smooth the edges back down for me after the sculpture was floated off its original cast while I was in South America." After the mold had been applied properly, it took an additional four hours of glam to produce the look we saw on the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art on the steps.

Glitter has a tendency to leave its mark. Despite our best efforts, it appears weeks later, in the most unpredictable locations. So when Lil Nas X arrived at the 2023 Met Gala afterparty, completely dry of all the glittery body paint he was wearing moments before the fashion event, we felt we were witnessing some sort of miracle. The question is — how did he actually manage to get everything off? (And it's fast!) On May 1, the rapper and songwriter were fully encrusted in silver body makeup, decorated head to toe in rhinestones, pearls, and sparkly crystals created by Pat McGrath. The paint covered his arms, legs, and torso, with Nas X wearing only modest silver bottoms and an embellished face mask. However, all the silver paint had apparently vanished without a trace at the after-party later that night.

Florence Pugh's fashion aspirations persist, she is the newest actress to join the Valentino family officially. In a series of stunning photographs shot by fashion photographer Steven Meisel, the "Don't Worry Darling" actress was revealed as the face of the Italian fashion house on April 26th. Pugh can be seen expressing a variety of emotions, from surprise to excitement, while holding the rockstud bag in a variety of color ways, including Barbiecore pink and metallic silver. She wasn't about to let clothing distract from the accessories at hand. The six campaign photographs, shot by Joe McKenna, Pugh, are seen sporting the trouser-less trend in plunging bodysuits and studded heels, as well as off-the-shoulder dresses and printed coords.

Despite her company's filing to trademark 'Bardi Beauty' in 2021, Grammy Award-winning Cardi B has no plans on launching a cosmetics firm in the near future. The Bronx-born 30-year-old shot down TMZ's news on Monday that she was going to debut 'Kulture Wave,' a beauty brand embling her two children.' Cardi (born Belcalis Almánzar) has relied heavily on make-up artist Erika La' Pearl Roman, who primarily uses Pat McGrath products on her since the start of her career.

At Paris Haute Couture Week, Doja Cat made quite the sartorial debut at Haute Couture Week. The rapper sparked a series of viral TikTok videos as she posed for photographers while feeding herself a bunch of grapes ahead of the Jean Paul Gaultier runway show on Jan. 25. As if it were the newest street style staple, the actress, who works with stylist Brett Alan Nelson, squealed the fruit with a gloved hand. She styled it with a cornflower blue leather jacket with oversize pockets, cinching the jacket with a wide belt and layering it over a matching turtleneck shirt. She introduced opaque tights, rectangular sunglasses, and delicate hoop earrings. Doja Cat's pointed-toe patent heels from the brand were the brand's final touch to her chic ensemble. Doja Cat sported fake eyelashes as a "lash-stache" at the Viktor & Rolf show, removing and repurposing the beauty add-ons as a goatee, eyebrows, and moustache, with her oversize pinstripe suiting. According to reports, the change was a retort to her followers, who were angry that her custom Schiaparelli makeup didn't come with eyelashes. Despite this, over 30,000 red Swarovski crystals lacquered onto her body by Pat McGrath and inspired by Dante Alighieri's poem "Inferno" was included.

Nothing is off limits, according to Doja Cat's latest look. If you'll remember the Grammy Award-winning artist turned heads at Victor & Rolf's Paris Fashion Week presentation on Jan. 25th by wearing fake eyelashes repurposed as a goatee, eyebrows, and moustache — a "lash-stache." Doja Cat promised to make amends after some fans were apparently dissatisfied that her latest Schiaparelli makeover featuring 30,000 red Swarovski crystals didn't include lashes. "If lashes are what you all want," she posted on Instagram Stories, adding, "See you at Viktor & Rolf."

If it wasn't already clear that Doja Cat is in her era of experimentation, it's likely that her new Fashion Week appearance would be evidence. The rapper appeared at the Schiaparelli Haute Couture Spring-Summer 2023 show in Paris on Jan. 23 and seemed to be a real gem, which seemed to be the point. Doja Cat was covered in over 30,000 Swarovski crystals, beginning with her head, reaching her chest, and onto her arms. The look, which was created by celebrity makeup artist Pat McGrath and her team, was inspired by the epic poem "Inferno." The first time she was painted in red, coordinating crystals were scattered all over her body. She then transitioned into her couture Schiaparelli ensemble, which included a silk faille bustier and a hand-knit skirt with lacquered wooden beads to tie it all together.

Pat McGrath Labs is about to take over your vanity once more. The brand revealed a second "Star Wars" x Pat McGrath collaboration on December 16, three years after the first edition was launched. Eyeshadow palettes, multipurpose "artistry pigments" for the eyes and lips, and mascaras in four different colorways are included in the collection. In addition, there are also many lipsticks and glosses available in three different shades. Pat McGrath of POPSUGAR writes, "It was all about nailing all of the striking colors that went with the collection's various moods." "Not only is this the first time the Mothership Palette has the correct "Star Wars" pattern on the component itself, but Chromalux Artistry Pigments (£28), which also have a stunning new formula that is easy to use with your fingers or a brush."

Taylor Swift's latest album, "Midnights," is just about all anyone can remember since its debut on October 21, but the singer isn't entirely up to date with the surprises. Pat McGrath, a well-known makeup artist and brand founder, collaborated with her to create a show-shopping makeup look for one of the latest music videos yet to be revealed. McGrath posted a close-up video of Swift on Instagram in what she's calling "dream decadence" makeup, as well as a complete breakdown of the product line. "Thank you for inviting me to create this SPARKLING #makeupbypatmcgrath look – you are the epitome of ICONIC INSPIRATION," the makeup artist's caption states in part.

Taylor Swift's "Midnights" is here! The 13-track collection includes seven surprise songs on the special 3 a.m. edition, as well as music videos that she wrote and directed herself. Swift debuted the first video for "Anti-Hero" on October 21st. She released "Bejeweled" on October 25, telling Jimmy Fallon that the video contained a "psychotic number" of Easter Eggs and that she brought them specifically to delight fans. Swiftie, as any veteran, knows, the singer loves to pack her songs and videos full of easter eggs, references, and calls back to her own discography, people in her life, and some of her favorite things. We're breaking down the "Midnights" easter eggs in the songs and music videos for "Anti-Hero" and "Bejeweled" ahead.

In the star-studded music video for her song Bejeweled from her latest album Midnights, Taylor Swift transformed from Cinderella to a burlesque dancer. At one point in the video, the 32-year-old singer, who also wrote and directed the project, performed a cheeky burlesque routine with Dita Von Teese, 50, with the pair splashing around in massive martini glasses while wearing sparking corsets. The film was chock-full of celebrity appearances, including actress Laura Dern, the Haim brothers, and make-up artist Pat McGrath.
