MTV Movie Awards 2009 Makeup: Leighton Meester

For the 2009 MTV Movie Awards, CoverGirl makeup artist Molly R. Stern created a sexy and edgy look for Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester. "She wanted to look like herself while celebrating the rock ’n roll spirit of the night," says Molly.

"I started by basing her skin with Cle de Peau's new Cream Foundation in O20. For her blush, I used Shiseido's Accentuating Powder Blush in Glistening Brown."

"On her eyes, I based them with Vincent Longo's Liquid Eyeshadow in Midnight Mauve. Over that, on the inside lid into the crease, I dusted NARS Night Clubbing glittery powder eyeshadow. Inside her eye both bottom and top, I lined her eyes with CoverGirl Exact Eyelights Brightening Liner in Vibrant Pearl (NEW from CoverGirl, hitting shelves in late July!!). Her mascara is CoverGirl LashBlast Luxe in Black Emerald. And to finish the look, she is wearing CoverGirl Outlast Lipstain in Cinnamon Smile."
