Beauty Byte: Paul Starr, Top Makeup Artist, is Dead at 48
Sad news: Paul Starr, the influential makeup artist to celebrities like Angelina Jolie, Madonna and Bjork, was found dead at his Los Angeles apartment Tuesday. Starr was the first in-house makeup artist for Estee Lauder, the founding Beauty Editor of Flaunt magazine, and the author of On Beauty: Conversations with Thirty Celebrated Women (which includes original interviews with Lindsay Lohan, Pam Grier, Britney Spears, and Joni Mitchell, among others). He worked with the best designers, directors and photographers in the industry.
Who's Your Favorite Celebrity Makeup Artist?
Celebrity makeup artists can command upwards of $10,000 a day for their services. Multiply that by all the days in the year, plus double-duty when it comes time for awards seasons, and you've got yourself one outrageous salary. All of these artists have loyal celebrity clients that request their company across the globe, wherever it is they may be working.
Bella Book: Paul Starr on Beauty
Last week I picked up a copy of Paul Starr on Beauty: Conversations with Thirty Celebrated Women ($22.76) and I've already read it cover to cover. Paul Starr is a celebrity makeup artist whose hands have touched dozens of star studded faces including Pamela Anderson, Salma Hayek, Michelle Pfeiffer, Angelina Jolie, Meg Ryan and one of his personal favorites Jennifer Garner. In the early 80s, he moved to Los Angeles without having any formal makeup training and by 2002 he became so successful that he collaborated with Estee Lauder on a collection.
How-To: Jennifer Garner's Glamour Girl Makeup Look
Jennifer Garner looked radiant at the 2007 Glamour Women of the Year Event Monday evening in New York City. Her beauty looks peaceful and serene in these photos — the sign of a woman who is truly glowing from the inside out!
But as happy as I'd like to believe that Jennifer is, the magical hands of famous celebrity makeup artist Paul Starr have also helped (just a little bit) create this fresh faced, ethereal look.
