      Highlight Skin
      These days, it feels like every runway look involves a good amount of moisture, shimmer or shine. To achieve your own glowy complexion on the go, pick up a highlighter stick or pot of shimmer like RMS Beauty's popular Living Luminizer and apply to cheekbones and eyelids.
      • Living Luminizer, RMS Beauty, $38

        Groom Brows

        Nothing creates a great canvas for makeup like perfectly groomed brows - you'd never catch a makeup artist without a pair of tweezers for this reason. For your own quick touch-ups, try an essentials kit with gel and a highlighter crayon too.
        • Mini Brow Rescue Kit, Tweezerman, $25

        Even Skin Tone

        Before you delve into bronzer, BB cream or blush, mask blemishes, dark sports and discoloration with a corrective cream color palette. While makeup artists keep an entire spectrum of hues on hand, you can pick up a smaller set suited to your specfic coloration.
        • 5 Camouflage Cream Palette, Make Up For Ever, $38

        De-Puff Eyes

        There isn't enough time for makeup artists to perform intensive treatments for models in between shows but even the quickest steam, facial or mask can do wonders for the skin. Hydrate and reduce puffiness around the eyes during your own busy days with these portable eye treatment masks.
        • Revital-Eyes Eye Masks , EmerginC, $38


        Blend Makeup

        Do-it-all tools that blend makeup for a flawless finish are a must in any makeup kit. While makeup artists use everything from cotton buds to the tips of their fingers to achieve the perfect blend, many keep edge-free sponges on hand for a softer and more precise look.

         

         

        Personalize Your Space

        Many makeup artists have a totem or personal item that sets the mood backstage and makes the space feel like home (see: Tom Pecheux's Pascal). Whether you're traveling or not, we love the idea of making a small, stylish item - like this crystal votive - a staple in your beauty kit.

Betsey Johnson Will Release New Perfume beauty news Courtesy of INFDaily.com . Yippee! Queen of fun and fashion, Betsey Johnson, is working on redeveloping her signature '80s perfume to release to the masses. Since very few of us got our hands on it the first time, it's going to be awesome... especially since Betsey's making some cool claims about the scent. I might be biased about the perfume, since Betsey's an alumna of my uni (Syracuse) and has always been on my radar. Hear me out, though--she's pretty darn cool and revamping that boutique-only scent wasn't easy. The fragrance from the '80s was copied very closely, Betsey explained, after news of her joining forces with Inter Parfums hit. On top of the copied scent, it sounds like cosmetics and a wider perfume collection will soon be coming our way. "The agreement runs through 2015 and covers sales to Betsey Johnson stores, both in shops and online. There is also a licensing component tha...
