484: Celebrity Makeup Artist Nikki DeRoest on Looking Fresh, Expensive Makeup & Her Best Beauty Hacks

About this episode

Celebrity makeup artist and founder of Ciele Cosmetics Nikki DeRoest joins me for a very fun, very practical beauty episode all about the makeup techniques that actually make a difference. Nikki has spent years working with some of the most recognizable faces in Hollywood, so we get into what celebrity skin really looks like, how she preps skin before makeup, and the tricks that make makeup look polished, expensive and actually last. We talk about the makeup practices that can unintentionally age you, how to keep concealer from settling into under-eye lines, what most people struggle with when doing their own makeup, and where you should—and absolutely should not—spend your money. Nikki also shares her favorite products, her signature skin and makeup prep, tips for undoing years of tanning-bed damage, and the small techniques that can completely change the way your makeup looks.
