Stacy Keibler at the Oscars‏

Hey everyone!

On a night of glitz and glamor, the most important red carpet tip is to start with the right skincare routine. To guarantee a luminous complexion all night long, it is vital to start with clean, nourished skin. That’s where Biore Skincare comes in.

To achieve beautiful, flawless skin, Celebrity Makeup Artist Melanie Inglesis used Biore’s new Combination Skin Balancing Cleanser to prep Stacy Keibler’s skin. The cleanser targets oily spots without stripping away the natural moisture, creating that perfect canvas to achieve any look from fresh and natural, to sexy and fun.

“Before I start applying makeup, I make sure my clients have clean, fresh skin,” says Melanie. “That’s why I prepped Stacy’s skin by cleansing with the new Biore Combination Skin Balancing Cleanser. Then I created a beautiful, dewy look that lets her natural skin shine through. I wanted to achieve a young, fresh look that didn’t overshadow the dress.”

Each lipstick is housed in a chic, matte black bullet, and signed in bold red rocker style to echo Kate Moss’ edgy persona. The trendy metallic tubes are durable and do not scratch easily.

These products retail for $5.49 each!
