NYC Makeup Artist Sandy Linter Talks Blush

Sandy Linter is a legendary makeup artist in New York City. From Eva Longoria to Christie Brinkley to Nancy Reagan, Sandy has created some of the most stunning magazine covers around the world.

Last March, Sandy applied makeup to lovely bride and cover girl Elizabeth Hurley for her marriage to businessman Arun Nayar. Check out the photo(right) of Elizbeth Hurley. Just a beautiful sample of Sandy Linter's makeup magic.

What Sandy tells celebrities and non-celebrities, is this:

If you don't like wearing too much makeup, at least put on some blush. Blush warms up the face, and enhances skin and bone structure.

Many women enjoy putting on makeup, but figure that foundation or base is enough, but it isn't.

"I hate that poured on look," Sandy says. "Just base and no blush. Or just base and powder. It's kind of strange-looking. I think women do it to look tanner. Or darker. But it's too flat. You need highlighting on the cheek. A touch of blush is necessary. Without it, it kind of looks dirty, flat, and matte."
