World-Class Makeup

* "In London, we are more experimental with makeup and tend to wear bright colors because it's so gray there--the men even wear guyliner. The best combo I have found is gold and black shadows on my eyes."

--Singer Natasha Bedingfield, England

* "I've always liked a nice pout. Once, I saw a makeup artist with great lips, and I pulled her aside and said, 'Show me how to make my lips look like yours!' She taught me to always use lip liner, and now I'm addicted! To make my lips look fuller, I trace the line a little bit outside of my natural lip line."--Singer Rihanna, Barbados

* "Gisele is the classic bronzed Brazilian goddess, so for her, it's all about the tan. I use a powder bronzer across her face and body oil with a little shimmer and color to boost her glow. Stick with a dry oil formula on the beach so sand won't stick to you."--Makeup artist Linda Hay
