I planted an orchard when I was 13. The impulse came from wanting to grow my own apples. That and the nursery catalog showed an apple tree with a beautiful girl standing under the fruit. Whether the flavor or the picture that did it, I've been hooked since.
The soul that beholds beauty becomes beautiful.
When I was younger, I was quite scared of a red lip. But I started listening to '60s French ye-ye pop when I was making 'Sucker.' I was looking at Brigitte Bardot and those kinds of girls. When they were dressed up, it was often a bold red lip.
My mother was a beauty queen in her hey day. That's where I learnt a little about makeup and hair... I had never picked up or even seen a 'Vogue' before I was 17. I had no idea about fashion, magazines, models or designers. No idea.
I got obsessed with makeup and makeup artists when I was young, with people like Kevyn Aucoin.
My own beauty routine is influenced pretty heavily from my 'Mad Men' routine. If I'm in the series of work, it's hard to see myself without eyelashes every day.
Yet beauty, though injurious, hath strange power, After offence returning, to regain Love once possess'd.
..Whoever dewlls on beauty tends to become beautiful; there will be a grace and charm to expressing itself through that person which no one can fail to recognize and appreciate.
What a strange power the perception of beauty is! It seems to ebb and flow like some secret tide, independent alike of health and disease, of joy or sorrow. There are times in our lives when we seem to go singing on our way, and when the beauty of the world sets itself like a quiet harmony to the song we uplift.
Stole my first name from 'Evening in Paris' and the second from Elizabeth Arden.
It was the sort of beauty you feel so deeply it becomes contagious and somehow makes you feel beautiful too.
From the first Lauren Luke tutorial I watched, I was completely taken with her.
Beauty makes idiots sad and wise men merry.
My mother was the most beautiful woman I ever saw. All I am I owe to my mother.
I used to copy looks from fashion ads in my mother's 'Cosmopolitan' magazines and steal her eye shadows.
I'm basically different things to different people. If it's a guy, I'm-a probably have my guard up because it's a street rule that when men come around that I don't know, I just immediately throw shade on them. But I don't associate with fellas all that much; if it's a girl - a beautiful girl - I be nice.
My goal is that my makeup and style will inspire Midwestern housewives. I want there to be a breakdown of 'Justin's smoky eye' in Cosmo.
Who hath not own'd, with rapture-smitten frame, The power of grace, the magic of a name.
Beauty is a dangerous property, tending to corrupt the mind of the wife, though it soon loses its influence over the husband. A figure agreeable and engaging, which inspires affection, without the ebriety of love, is a much safer choice.
