I love to know what beauty products are used on movie sets because you know what they’re using is going to be long-lasting but look flawless in high definition. And what movie was bigger this year than The Twilight Saga: New Moon? So I did a little digging to find what products the hair and makeup folks on the used on the Vancouver, B.C., set.
Dermalogica Shaving Products
- Makeup designer Norma Hill-Patton said she used a lot of Dermologica products. “All of the Actors required a LOT of makeup and it was on their faces for long periods of time, so we needed to take particular care of their skins. Vampires don’t perspire, don’t grow facial hair, don’t get lines and certainly don’t get blemishes,” she said. She used Dermalogica’s Active Moist (“We used on most of the Cast as it is quite universal & suits most types of skin,” said Norma.) And she said Dermalogica PreCleanse was invaluable for cleansing off the body make up. She also used Dermalogica Intensive Eye Cream “It was great for keeping the fine lines around the eyes at bay.” And Robert Pattinson couldn’t be a hairy vampire! “Dermalogica Shave System was used on all of the guys with great success!”(Get this for your man as a great holiday gif!)
– Hairstylist Thom McIntyre used Kerastase products on Kristen Stewart’s hair. Bella’s hair was washed with Bain Miroir shampoo and conditioner for color-treated hair and Nutri-Sculpt mousse to give her long waves volume.
- Norma used MAC Lipglass in Plum Parfait on Ashley Greene and made her doe eyes more dramatic with Ardell DuraLash fake lashes.
- Kristen Stewart‘s makeup artist, Robin Matthews, used Chantecaille products: read which ones at BeautyBlitz.com.
I wonder if any of them tried DuWop’s Twilight Venom. I could see Nikki Reed rocking this luscious lip shade.

My WTF moment so far goes to Marc Jacobs and the weirdness there: powdered white faces, penciled-on black brows and top-o’-the-head buns. It’s a little kabuki, a little Renaissance and a little not-gonna-wear-it. If I were going to try to adapt this look, I’d look myself in the mirror and say, Stop. Let’s just chalk this one up to Mr. Jacobs’ theatrics and not try to adapt it for the rest of us.
