Get the Look: Taylor Swift at the CMA's.

Celebrity Makeup Artist Lorrie Turk created the look for Taylor Swift at this years Country Music Awards.

I was inspired by the drop dead gorgeousness of the J. Mendel gown Taylor wore. 

"The gown was a very cool toned dove hue and later in the show she wore a jewel toned sweater to perform in, so the color palette was cooler.  Because of the lack of time to make changes, the makeup on the red carpet had to work with the pared down look of the performance.  We only had time to make a quick lip color change. 

I started by using COVERGIRL Natureluxe Silk Foundation for a fresh finish on her skin.  On her eyes I used COVERGIRL Intense ShadowBlast in Platinum Pop followed by a very thin line of COVERGIRL LineExact eyeliner in Very Black and finished her eyes with coats of COVERGIRL Lash Perfection Mascara on her lashes.
 
For her lips on the red carpet, I used COVERGIRL ShineBlast in Sparkler--and for the performance we switched it to COVERGIRL NatureLuxe Gloss Balm in Peony.
 
For a little color and shimmer on her cheeks, I finished by brushing on COVERGIRL TruBlend Minerals Blush in Pure Romance."
