A Few Fun Makeup Tricks To Steal From This "Glee" Star: Girls in the Beauty Department: Beauty: glamour.com

A Few Fun Makeup Tricks To Steal From This "Glee" Star: Girls in the Beauty Department: Beauty: glamour.com

OK, I know "Glee" star Heather Morris has a lot of trends going on at once here--the side braid, the high hair, the cat-eye liner, the tangerine lips. But while most of us probably wouldn't attempt so many simultaneous trends, I had to find out some of the makeup tricks behind her look.

I was especially infatuated with her fun lip color--and I'm thinking some of you will be, too. When I posted about bright-coral lipstick and blush recently, 45 percent of you said you're dying to wear the new hue this spring.

Here's a closer look at Heather's makeup.

And here's how makeup artist Quinn Murphy gave Heather the look, which she wore to a Fox network party earlier this week:

"Heather came up with the idea for graphic eyeliner in a bold color," he says. "I thought black-violet would look great with her neutral beige/camel dress." He applied purple liquid liner from Make Up For Ever along her lash line then flicked it up and out at the corners to get a retro cat-eye/winged effect. "For a more modern look, draw the liner straight out from the corner of the eye," he advises. On her lids, he used a soft taupe eyeshadow; on the lashes, Armani Maestro mascara.

On Heather's lips, he did a tangerine lip stain. "It's an alternative to a nude lip yet doesn't compete with the statement of the eyes," Quinn notes; he used Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Tar in "Grandma" (awesome name for a coral shade!). "It is perfect for red carpet situations as it lasts for hours and the color payoff is amazing," he says.
