To prep the lips, celeb makeup artist Jenn Streicher applied this sugar scrub to co-host Vanessa Grimaldi's lips. While she'd normally let it sit for a few minutes, Vanessa quickly used her finger to exfoliate her lips. "You're taking off that dead top layer of skin," the beauty pro told freeSTYLE viewers. "It has essential oils, so while it's exfoliating, it's moisturizing."
If you don't have a sugar scrub at home, Jenn also recommends using a toothbrush to gently exfoliate your lips.

For a nighttime solution to dry lips, Jenn recommends Elizabeth Arden. "You want to wear it at night," she said. "It's really hard to wear matte lipsticks with a balm."

Before applying a lipstick, she applied a light layer of translucent powder to the lips. "So you don't have any [leftover] oil," she explained.

Matte lipsticks don't pair well with dry lips. "[Tom Ford lipsticks] are moisturizing," she shared. "If you tend to have a drier lip, it's a great option." The only downfall is that the beauty pro states that products don't last as long, so remember to keep it in your purse.

The beauty blender is this makeup artist's "favorite product ever."
Original Makeup Sponge Applicator, $25.00
"I always recommend people use [concealer] with a damp beauty blender," she told the audience, before revealing that she wets the blender in the skin when her client arrives. By the time she's ready to use it, it's dried a bit, so she sprays the sponge with this beauty elixir. "You don't want it to be too cakey under your eye."
Beauty Elixir, $49.00
When it comes to eyeshadow, the pro prefer shadow sticks. "I think they're really easy," she shared listing her reasons. "They're full-proof. You don't get the fallout everywhere. It gives you a nice finish."

Then she applied eyeliner from the inner corner to the outer corner. "You don't need to be precious about it," she explained while dragging the liner. "Just whip it on, because you're going back and smudging it."
