Beauty Icon of the Week

This week's Beauty Icon is the gorgeous Debi Mazar! She is an actress in films like Goodfellas and shows like HBO's Entourage. She also has a cooking show Extra Virgin with her Italian husband on the Cooking Channel and hosts a similar web series on youtube called Under the Tuscan Gun. The unique beauty started out her career as a makeup artist and most notably did her good friend Madonna's makeup for a Broadway play in 1988. In addition to her busy schedule she has also recently formulated her own line of natural body creams and scrubs made from the olive trees on her property in Fiesole, Italy.
With her remarkable features, its no wonder she is often compared to the vintage face of Barbie.

Mazar, 46, attributes her good looks to following simple rules such as drinking plenty of water to smooth out lines, red wine for its antioxidant power, taking vitamins, doing cardio for circulation, and getting proper sleep (she was once an insomniac). Also, she claims to have been using Dr. Hauschka Skin Care products for almost 30 years and is a loyal devotee of the moon manicure (or half-moon manicure), a retro look which leaves the "moons" (or the 1/8 inch portion of nail closest to the nailbed and cuticle) nude or white in contrast to the color of the rest of the nail.

 

 Get Debi's makeup look after the jump!

To get Debi's signature makeup look:

• Start with an even base by using a light foundation or tinted moisturizer (such as Smashbox Sheer Focus Tinted Moisturizer) all over the face and neck.
• Next use a soft coral cream blush (such as NARS The Multiple in Portofino) on the apples of the cheeks and blend up towards the hairline.
• For a dewy complexion, use an illuminator (such as Benefits High Beam) or a light simmery white eyeshadow (such as Maybelline in Linen ) to highlight the top of cheekbones and the brow bone.
• Sweep a nude or beige eyeshadow on the lids (suchs as Milani's Sheer Sand).
• Deepen the crease of the eye socket with a light brown shadow (such as MAC's Soft Brown).
• Fill any sparse areas of the eyebrow with a soft pencil (such as NYX Automatic Eyebrow Pencil in Light Brown)
• Apply a thin line of black liquid eyeliner (such as Prestige Liquid Eyeliner in Black) at the lashline, starting at the center and gradually getting a tiny bit thicker at the outer corners. Make a slight wing at the ends (practice makes perfect!).
• Curl the eyelashes and apply two coats of black mascara (such as Maybelline Falsies Mascara in Black Drama). 
• Apply a strip of false lashes right on the lash line on the top lid of each eye. Let dry completely, pushing the ends of the lashes up with your fingers to prevent drooping.
• Apply a nude lipstain (such as Tarte Lipsurgence in Exposed) all over the lips, drawing rounded bows and leaving no harsh points.
• Finish with a shimmery peach lip gloss (such as Stila Lip Glaze in Tangerine).
• Optional: To really set off the stunning look of Debi Mazar you can go overboard and pop in a pair of crystal blue contact lenses (such as FreshLook lenses in Caribbean Aqua).
