Sex and the City MAC make-up artists share their secrets

Judy Chin - Sarah Jessica Parker's personal makeup artist for SATC.

"Sarah had many looks for this film, but one thing that I always wanted to be present was a natural beauty that didn't look like makeup. I tried to keep her eyes the focus, by creating a strong, yet natural, lashline and I always framed her eyes with beautiful lashes. I wanted her to have a healthy rosy flush to her cheeks, a soft mouth and clean healthy skin that had a natural glow and shine to it.

"To achieve this, I worked MAC Powerpoint Eye Pencil in engraved into her lashline, by applying it in between her lashes, and smudged it very softly to blend it. I was careful to coat her lashes in MAC Mascara X from the root and brush them out - and we always curled them. I often opted for a cream blush that I could layer and blend into her skin. I used a lightweight foundation that gave me a light dewy finish and incorporated that with using concealer only when and where I needed it. I used MAC Blot Powder to remove excess shine and powdered only if I needed to."

Kyra Panchenko - Kim Cattrall's personal makeup artist for SATC.

"I was going for a California girl' look for Kim. Her character, Samantha, moves to LA, so I kept her pretty tanned and bronzed. I used MAC Blot Powder in medium, Eye Kohl in teddy, and the amazing Cleansing Tips to clean up under the eyes."
