Lauren Conrad started thebeautydepartment.com where she supplies hair and makeup how-to’s from experts. Amy Nadine lends her beauty expertise to the site for makeup tips and tricks.

When perusing Amy’s tutorials on the site, we couldn’t help but notice her incredible tip for long-lasting red lips! Amy instructs readers to put on a red lipstick and then, using an eyeshadow brush, apply a loose powder over the lipstick and then reapply the color again. Loose powder in between coats of lipstick? This is news to me, but I can’t wait to try the trick! Anything that would make my red last longer and stop any color from bleeding is certainly worth a go.

Loose powder has so many uses. Sonia Kashuk was just at the HollywoodLife.com office explaining to our Editor-in-Chief, Bonnie Fuller, about how to make the most of your loose powder product — and the tips just keep on coming! I need to stock up asap!

Want to get Whitney Port’s golden girl look?

How gorgeous were The City star’s shimmery, golden eyes at US Weekly’s Hot Hollywood party on November 18th? “A trick to pulling off this dramatic eye look is to blend, blend, blend!” says Amy Nadine, Whitney’s makeup artist who tells you how she created this look. “I used a golden sand color to blend out any hard lines in the crease. Then, to really make the eyes pop, I added a gold color in the inner tear duct which opens and separates the eyes,” Amy says. To keep the focus on the eyes, keep your cheeks and lips light and airy looking with just a swipe of gloss and a natural-hued blush. To get the same look, try out the Nars products below that Amy used on Whitney. — Marta Topran
