MAKEUP
• Madonna’s makeup artist Gina Brooke reportedly uses a combination of white eye shadow and crushed rose-cut diamonds to achieve a sparkly eye for the singer’s stage look. [StyleWatch/People]

• Makeup artist Kate Lee took inspiration from Jerry Hall and Helmut Newton to create a toned-down smoky-eye look for Sienna Miller at the Tokyo premiere of G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra. [Beauty Counter/Style.com]

• Alcone created a lip stamp so you can just press on lipstick, which could come in handy if you ever want the clown-like Alexander McQueen lips seen on the fall 2009 runway. [Teen Vogue]

HAIR
• Hairstylist Orlando Pita recreated his Christian Dior couture hairstyle on video for viewers to try at home. He emphasized frizzy hair for fall, a notion that seems counterintuitive. [Moment/NYT]
