Ivanka Trump Makeup Tips

As she lives her life within the prominence, businesswoman Ivanka Trump just about always looks polished and film perfect. Behind her flawless appearance is makeup artist Alexa Rodulfo, who has worked with President Trump’s daughter for quite a decade.

Mexican born and a New Yorker at heart, Alexa is the secret behind not just the #beautygoals set by the first daughter, but also the chic looks of other high profile women such as Princess Charlene of Monaco, Margherita Missoni, Tatiana Santo Domingo and Lauren Santo Domingo. The makeup artist – who is a blogger for HELLO!’s Spanish-language sister, ¡HOLA! Mexico – let Hola.com in on Ivanka’s beauty secrets.

When it involves well-to-do, Alexa revealed that Ivanka already has the healthy habits one needs for an excellent canvas to begin with. “Ivanka is someone who eats nutritious foods, exercises regularly, doesn’t smoke and protects her skin,” she said. “That’s a extremely important factor when it involves her skin looking perfect.”

The two have a collaborative relationship on choosing a beauty style for each special occasion. “I love working with her because even though she always knows what she wants, we both give our opinions and agree to a look,” said Alexa. “In some cases, she’ll show me the dress she’s going to wear, I’ll suggest an idea, and she’ll say, ‘I was thinking the same thing!’ Once we agree on something, I get to work while she’s on her computer or reading the newspapers.”

As far as Alexa’s go-to makeup styles for the statuesque blonde, “I always accentuate her cheekbones with contouring and therefore the product I take advantage of depends on the lighting and whether the makeup is for video, photos or a gala.” to place the main target on Ivanka’s eyes, she generally likes to form them pop with a smokey look in café hues.

Alexa was also responsible for the stylish businesswoman’s wedding makeup when Ivanka wed Jared Kushner.

But now that Ivanka has swapped the Big Apple for Washington, D.C. can we expect her to change her look? “I don’t think so,” opined Alexa. “Ivanka really is a woman who is elegant, yet at the same time casual. She does her own day-to-day makeup and hair.” The makeup artist was, of course, behind Ivanka’s inauguration weekend style in January. “I’ve been fortunate to accompany and work with Ivanka during important moments of her life,” she reflected. “Every look in its moment has been special, and that one was, too.”

Additionally, here are five more things we learned about Ivanka from her MUA:

1) Ivanka’s favorite looks: “The makeup she wore for her wedding is incredibly special, but i believe that the majority recently it’s the one she wore to the National Republican Convention.”

2) Her nightime no-no: “She never wears makeup to bed.”

3) Her natural beauty trick: “She likes to drink quandary with lemon.”

4) Her favorite makeup trends: “Luminizers or highlighters.”

5) Her international beauty routine: “Before applying her makeup and after washing her face, I tone and hydrate her skin. i take advantage of a collagen mask that Wendi Murdoch, an admirer of Ivanka and one among my clients, brought back from China. Sometimes i take advantage of some products my friend Chris brings back from Korea.”

Mariah Carey continues to dig within the crates to share unreleased tracks that got off from her.

The history-making popular music diva shared an excerpt from her upcoming memoir “The Meaning of Mariah Carey,” during which she details her love for the 1980 movie “Fame” and its star, Irene Cara.

On Friday, she officially released her version of 1 of the songs Cara performed within the classic film movie, “Out Here on my very own,” which was an Oscar-nominated top-20 hit.

“My mother entered me in a talent competition in the city, and I sang one of my favorite songs, ‘Out Here on My Own,’ by Irene Cara,” the five-time Grammy Award winner shared to her 9.5 million Instagram followers. “I felt ‘Out Here on My Own’ described my entire life, and I loved singing that way—singing to reveal a piece of my soul. And I won doing it.”

“At that age. I lived for the movie Fame, and Irene Cara was everything to me,” Carey continued. “I related to her multicultural look…her multi-textured hair and, most importantly, her ambition and accomplishments.”

“’Out Here on My Own’ was such a pure song that touched my heart, and I couldn’t believe I won a trophy for singing a song I loved,” she wrote in the caption. “It was the first time I’d received validation as an artist.”

The “Vision of Love” singer/songwriter furthered: “Coincidentally, it wasn’t until after I had written about ‘Out Here On My Own’ in the book, that I found it in the vault while making ‘The Rarities.’ Totally meant to be!!”

Carey’s version of the ballad, recorded July 17, 2000, was going to appear on the soundtrack album of her 2001 critically panned movie “Glitter,” which was apparently originally titled “All That Glitters.”

Penned by Lesley Gore and Michael Gore, “Out Here on My Own” was nominated for Best Original Song at the 1981 Academy Awards.

The never-before-released gem will appear on the 2-CD compilation “The Rarities,” due Oct. 2 via Columbia/Legacy.

Celebrity couples are always in the news, with their on-again-off-again romances and spur-of-the-moment weddings. Some couples, however, do a very good job of keeping their personal lives private. It’s always a shock when these couples’ relationship woes make headlines because we don’t know much about them, to begin with. Dianna Agron and Winston Marshall are one of these notoriously private pairs who recently called it quits.

Agron is an actress best known for her role as Quinn Fabray on Glee. Agron was born and raised in Savannah, Georgia, but later moved to Texas and then San Francisco. She has a younger brother, Jason. Agron was an excellent student in highschool and spent much of her time performing.

Some kind of old Hollywood feeling…

A post shared by Dianna Agron (@diannaagron) on

She began dance at just three years old, with a focus on jazz and ballet. She later became interested in hip-hop and musical theater. Her acting career began with commercials and supporting roles in Numb3rs, Veronica Mars, and Heroes.

In 2009, she was cast in Glee. The young actress received the news just two days before production began. After her breakout role on the hit TV series, Agron made her way to the big screen. She starred in the 2010 musical Burlesque, working with Christina Aguilera and Cher. She also played Sarah Hart in the 2011 action film, I Am Number Four.

Agron was sought out by director and screenwriter Luc Besson for a role in his 2013 film, The Family. After seeing her on Glee, Besson says he created the role of Belle specifically with Agron in mind. Belle was the daughter of a Mafioso who ratted out his cohorts, forcing his family into witness protection.

Marshall is the banjoist and lead guitarist of Mumford and Sons. Marshall was born in London and was interested in music at a very young age. He learned to play the electric guitar when he was 13 and later became incredibly skilled on the banjo.

In fact, Marshall’s incredible talent on the banjo brought the instrument into mainstream music and inspired numerous banjo players around the world.

Before making it big with Mumford and Sons, the musician ran jam nights at a local club, Bosun’s Locker. He actually met Mumford at this club. He also played in several other bands, most of which played bluegrass sleaze rap.

Later, Marshall became interested in techno and EDM and joined Austrian DJs, HVOB.

Marshall had a brief, one night fling with legendary musician Katy Perry. The were both in Germany, playing shows at different venues. They met at a nightclub one evening and later retired to Perry’s private room.

Dianna Agron attends Apple Store Soho Presents Tribeca Film Festival. Agron and Marshall reportedly began dating around July 2015, when they were seen getting cozy in Paris. They were seen again at an after-party for the film She’s Funny That Way.

During the holidays that year, they became engaged. Fans caught a glimpse of Agron’s gorgeous engagement ring in February 2016 at London Fashion Week.

The couple was married in Morocco in October 2016. The wedding was a lavish, three-day event. Photos feature Agron in a stunning floral gown and white headdress, and camels decked out in vivid red, pink, and orange knit blankets.

Recently they announced their split. They say they’ve been living separately for the past year, and that Agron has begun dating again. There is no word on what caused the split, and friends say that Marshall was a very thoughtful husband who treated Agron like a princess.

The story of a Korean-American teen who is picked by a significant agency to debut during a 9-piece K-pop girl group sure sounds familiar … but what we actually want to grasp is when Ace Entertainment will turn Jung’s story into a Netflix drama series.

Jessica Jung only turned 31 in April and her resume already includes singer, actress, YA book author, songwriter, fashion brand creative director and founder and, most recently, YouTuber. Meanwhile, her novel Shine is slated to hit the shelves in September 2020. What do we know about this long-awaited book, as well as Jung and her journey?

Born in San Francisco, California, she later moved to Korea in her early teens to train at SM Entertainment, one of Korea’s best agencies. Making her debut in the world famous girl group, Girls’ Generation, she found mainstream success in the industry at a young age.

In 2016, she met with disagreements within the group and company and was dismissed from the team. Later, she joined Coridel Entertainment, founded by her long-time boyfriend, business mogul Tyler Kwon, and released her debut solo album, “With Love, J”. Since then, she has actively been taking part in helping to co-write her albums, with credits for more than 10 songs.

She is seen most often with her sister, fellow K-pop star Krystal Jung. The two were much loved for their reality programme, J&K, which was even set to renew for season two, until Jessica fell out with her company – the very same one that houses Krystal.

For now, fans of their sisterly dynamics can be content with watching their vlogs on Jessica’s YouTube channel, Jessica Land. The two often travel together, making for fun videos. Recently, they attended a pottery class together.

Jung’s YouTube channel is also blooming, with more than half a million subscribers. From song recommendations to daily vlogs, and even fashion lookbooks, Jung is adept at sharing her life with her fans. Recently she handmade rings for a giveaway.

As she goes through various hurdles to let her star rise, she also falls in love with resident bad-boy and media darling, Jason Lee. Sound familiar? It’s practically an autobiography. The book has also already been picked up by
