The singer picked up three of the biggest awards of the night at the 2011 American Music Awards. Taylor stayed true to her signature understated beauty look and her makeup artist gives YOU the how-to!

Celebrity makeup artist Lorrie Turk created Taylor Swift‘s flawless complexion, rosy lips and lush lashes. Lori kept the makeup light, yet chic to reflect the “youthful, fun vibe” of the AMAs.

Face:

• With a foundation brush, I smoothed CoverGirl’s Natureluxe Silk Foundation onto her skin followed by a dab of concealer on the inner corners of her eyes. I applied the concealer with the tip of my ring finger in a patting motion. CG TruBlend Minerals Blush in Shimmering Sands was used along the cheekbones to add highlight and color.

Eyes:

• With a dampened eyeshadow brush, I brushed on COVERGIRL Eye Enhancers 1-Kit Shadow in Tapestry Taupe from her lash line to just above her crease and blended that in an up and outward motion. On the innermost corners of her eyes, I applied COVERGIRL Eye Enhancers 1-Kit Shadow in Snow blossom with a small damp brush to brighten and highlight her eyes.

• I lined just the tops on her lash line with a very thin line using COVERGIRL LineExact Liquid Liner in Very Black. I finished her eyes by applying a couple of coats of COVERGIRL NatureLuxe Mousse Mascara in Very Black to her upper and lower lashes.

Lips:

• I applied COVERGIRL ShineBlast Lipgloss in Dazzle directly from the applicator wand and then put it in her purse for any possible touchups later in the evening.

Would you try Taylor’s look?
