Get the Look: Mary Louise Parker at the 2009 Emmy Awards

Maybelline isn't just hitting the runways at Bryant Park this year, they're also tackling the red carpet. Makeup Artist Tina Turnbow for Maybelline New York created the face for nominee Mary Louise Parker tonight at the 2009 Emmy Awards.

Tina was inspired by the deep purple and indigo tones in Mary-Louise’s Zac Posen dress, and her gorgeous gunmetal grey accessories. To play up the colors, Tina chose a dramatic yet classic smokey eye, blushing pink cheeks and nude lips.

Face: Because Mary-Louise has beautiful porcelain skin, Tina kept her face looking pristine by applying Maybelline New York Dream Liquid Mousse in Classic Ivory – with touches of Maybelline New York Dream Mousse Concealer in Light under the eyes and to the tops of the cheeks to give a contoured look.

Cheeks: To complement her ivory skin, Tina brushed on Maybelline New York Mineral Power Naturally Luminous Blush in Gentle Pink to the apples of the cheeks to give the look of a soft natural flush.

Eyes: Tina used all four shades in the Maybelline New York Expert Wear Stylish Smokes Palette in Amethyst Smokes to play up her eyes and add drama; the deep purples complemented her creamy skin and dark hair.

She then followed with Maybelline New York Line Stiletto Liquid Eyeliner in Black on the upper and lower lash lines. To showcase the gorgeous jewel tones of the shadows, Tina only applied one coat of Maybelline New York Pulse Perfection Vibrating Mascara in Very Black.

Lips: For a barely-there, neutral lip, Tina lined the entire mouth with Maybelline New York Color Sensational Lip Liner in Toast. She then followed up with Maybelline New York Color Sensational Lipstick in Nearly There.

Body: To complete the look, a soft dusting of Maybelline New York Mineral Power Illuminator in Nude was brushed along her collar bones, arms and legs for the perfect red carpet glow.
