Carrie Bradshaw's Makeup: Behind the Scenes and Tips From Her Stylist
Female: Sarah Jessica Parker’s personal makeup artist from Sex in the City
gives BellaTV the exclusive dish on her favorite behind the scene
moments and Carrie’s must-have beauty products.
Judy: Hi, my name is Judy Chin. I am Sarah Jessica’s personal makeup
artist. We are always inspired by her costumes. I feel it was a great
inspiration, whether it be from something cool I saw in the subway
or something I saw in the magazine or just someone like just
strolling down street. Sarah, she is pretty great and that she trust
that we will come up with something wonderful.
I will just be like trust me, we will see.
Female: Give us some examples of what you’ve tried that has been totally
outlandish and you’ve have to rework?
Judy: I was standing on the corner and I say this very tall Japanese
woman. And she had white makeup from the center of her face just
glowing out. She had a little hint of pink on her cheeks and it was
just really pretty and I thought of that for Carrie’s book signing
party season five. I started it and it was kind of cool but like maybe
in a photo shoot and not for the scene.
So, we pulled that back. I still kept the bit of the white shimmer
going on.
Female: What is the best part about working with her?
Judy: The best thing about working with Sarah Jessica is it is a
collaborative effort. We always have a lot of fun. We talk a lot
about the scene, her character and what is fun to do.
Female: What are some of Carrie Bradshaw’s classic go-to looks?
Judy: For her eyes, what always works for her is lining her eyes on the
inside, rimming her eyes in black, lots of mascara. For the most
part at least for Carrie, you know we've always kept her lips very
soft. A lot of times we will just use a lip liner on Sarah and a tiny
bit of gloss or a lip balm. One liner that we have always used is
liner from Face Stockholm. There is actually a color called Jessica
that we've always used and another cool name Barbara which is a
slightly deeper.
Some of the things that I can’t live without for her eyes have been
the MAC Powerpoint, pencil Engrave Mascara X has been a staple
of ours. It is beautiful rich black mascara that it is fluffy and pretty.
Female: To get the scoop on Carrie’s iconic curls, check out our exclusive
interview series with SJP’s hairstylist on BellaTV. Thanks for
watching, stay beautiful.
