Today I was inspired to write about Sex and the City again with the approach of the May 30 movie premiere. I was walking in NYC this afternoon, spotting sailors left and right in the streets during Fleet Week…then I passed a billboard for the movie. (Remember that Sex and the City episode where the girls were enjoying Fleet Week?) I couldn’t help notice how luminescent Sarah Jessica Parker’s makeup looked in the poster. Then flashback to this article I found the other day about the celebrity makeup artist, Nicki Lieberman, who developed the strategy for Carrie’s makeup looks throughout the show.
The article also talks about the makeup looks achieved in Devil Wears Prada. Great fashion flick for anyone who loves fashion or appreciates a good laugh. How did they create those makeup looks? The celebrity makeup artist, Nicky Lieberman, reveals her top tips. She believes less is more, and we must always groom those brows! Check out the full article here .

Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Catrall, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis get together on May 12, 2008 for the Sex and the City’s Movie World Premiere in London. The movie is out in theatres on May 30!
Sex and the City will be a big hit in theatres. I saw part of the filming of the movie a few months ago. Walking to work, which was in front of the NY Public Library at the time, I saw all the crowds and film crew. I knew immediately it had to be SATC! They filmed in front of the library steps for most of the day, and I got to see Big and all the ladies in the cast! I was just a few feet away. They looked gorgeous! They were wearing beautiful gowns and apparently filming the wedding scene. I won’t give anything else away…
I even got to see Big again on the way home. Definitely a fun diversion for the day… Where’s the camera when you need one??
Well, the SATC ladies look fabulous at the premiere. Who do you think has the best makeup celebrity look and outfit? Who’s your favorite Sex and the City character?

Sarah Jessica Parker usually wears her eye makeup with eyeliner on the top and bottom for a smoldering, smoky look. It’s pretty easy to do. Check out SJP at the Sex and the City Movie premiere in London. Of course, Sarah Jessica Parker won’t be wearing any old thing to the premiere but check out what she’s wearing… Carrie Bradshaw, we love you but what’s up with the hat??
How to Line Your Eyes like Sarah Jessica Parker:
- After applying eyeshadow makeup, apply black eyeliner to the top eyelids as close as possible to your eyelash root.
- Line to the middle of the eyes. At the outer corners, create a slight flick.
- Line the bottom of your eyes lightly, as close as possible to the lower lash line.
- Use an eyeliner brush and black eyeliner powder OR a black eyeliner pencil.
- Clean up any smudges with a tissue and undereye concealer.
Tip: Don’t use too much eyeliner underneath the eyes and avoid kohl eyeliner…it may run and smudge, which may cause your undereye area to look darker. Clean up any smudges afterwards. Enjoy!
The ladies on Sex and the City always look great, but you probably identify with one of them the most…Whose makeup do you love the most on Sex and the City?
