There's no doubt Michelle Obama always looks flawless, and when traveling Europe last week, she was picture perfect every day wearing perfectly chosen ensembles. Also perfect was her hair and makeup, because, as the NY Post reports, she hired make-up artist Ingrid Grimes-Miles. Grimes-Miles is rumored to be responsible for Michelle's big beauty change -- the shape of her eyebrows: Michelle's brows went from high-arched to having a softer arch, giving her a friendlier look. Ingrid shared some of Michelle's secrets on how she gets camera ready:
1. Fake lashes -- always 2. Smoky eyes 3. Softly arched brows 4. Iridescent pearl facial highlighter to give her skin a healthy glow
Though the Obamas are personally picking up the tab for the makeup artist, some have responded controversially saying they think Michelle's full-time makeup artist is excessive. Hey, if we had to be on camera everyday, we definitely wouldn't want to be doing our own hair and makeup. Not to mention, Michelle is being closely watched as she has risen to fashion icon status.
