Have never been a fan of the pale skin with a bold red lip. RMS does the same and while I like RMS, I think the look is harsh.

I was going to say she reminds me of Rosemarie Swift from RMS.

When I think about CBK, makeup doesn't come to mind. Even though she was high-level publicist for Calvin Klein, her fashion sense was rather minimal as was her makeup. Not much to say about it really imo.

I would rather see a little more makeup on the eye and a softer color on the lip. When I look at her pictures all I see is red and her eyes disappear into her face.

I've been hooked on Carolyn's Bissette's minimal makeup since I first saw her in the press. Love the pale skin (yeah, like mine) with the less makeup on the eyes and that stand out lip.

I've been watching the series LOVE STORY on Hulu and am trying the brighter, but not red lip. Good look for spring/summer.

Anyone else fascinated by her makeup/style?

I didn't realize that "minimal makeup" was unique. Many of us who are not 33 and beautiful, wear makeup the same way.

I have never worn anyhing but a natural look and was in heaven when Trish McEvoy made that so easy way way back in the last century.

I like to enhance my skin but have never liked seeing makeup on me. I never wore colored eye makeup. I have really bright green eyes, and a little liner on the top and some one-color neutral lid and I was good to go. And maybe some eyebrow pencil and mascara. I have used blushes, but very lightly.

I love that now a few dots of concealer blended and I don't need a whole face of foundation. Retired and having my best skin ever now.
