Can you teach me how to smize or like give me some smizing tips?
So, look into the camera. That needs to be someone that you either are in love with or you hate. Which is your choice.
Why don't we go with hate? Yeah, I like that. Okay.
Somebody that you hate and you're pissed off. Relax your lips though. cuz you have Novacaine lips, but you are staring them down. There you go. Squint even more. Sell that magazine cover. You got it. Oh, and you tilted too.
Hey guys, I'm Molly Argu for Young Hollywood and today we are at BeautyCon. So stick around because you're not going to want to miss who we sit down and talk with. Hey everyone, Molly Argu here for Young Hollywood at BeautyCon with the Tyra Banks. Hi! Thank you so much for being here.
Thank you for having me.
So, I'm wondering, how are you a girl boss, a mom, and a beauty queen icon like all mixed in one? How do you manage all of that?
You have to just juggle and like wherever you are in that moment, focus 100% there. I'm not practicing what I'm preaching though because I'll be holding my son and doing a meeting or like, you know, answering emails. So it's definitely challenging but we can do it all. We can have it all.
And you have tons of experience with beauty, whether it's in front of the camera or day-to-day life. What is your like number one Tyra beauty product that you always have with you no matter the occasion?
I love my Sculpt and the stick and my Light and the stick because you can contour in like two minutes or less. Like I don't have naturally sculpted cheekbones and this just like takes me there. Really fast.
How do you blend them? Do you blend them with a finger or like with a brush?
So I have four fast fearless fingers when it comes to blending um for a five minute Ty Over, but for the two minute Ty Over, you take your middle finger and you dab dab dab dab dab and then for the highlighter you take that ring finger and you dab dab dab dab dab. Oh, that's a Ty Over, man. Oh, look at that! And if you have that on your finger while you're blending, then you're even more smized. Then it's like beyond blendable. When it's like this, on the ring.
What about some beauty trends or beauty hacks that you're like loving right now?
I really love the spoons. I mean, you know, it's something that has been going on for a long time. Makeup artists have been doing it but the great thing now with social media is that these tricks and these hacks and these tips are now spread so wide. So if you have trouble getting that line straight you can use a spoon. We also have a product called Oops Liner where on one side it's an eyeliner like a a a pen eyeliner and the other side is an eraser. So you can sharpen your wing tips and clean up your mishaps and your mess ups, your mistakes, all the M's.
Sounds like so much fun to play around with all of the different makeups.
So, yeah with Tyra Beauty it's all about having fun so we're like fun fast fearless. You can do your face, you know, fast. You're gonna have a lot of fun because we have songs and all kind of crazy stuff like dab and dab and dab and dab and dab and dab and dab and dab. We have all this stuff to like make it fun and exciting.
And my last question for you is can you teach me how to smize or like give me some smizing tips?
So, look into the camera. That needs to be someone that you either are in love with or you hate. Which is your choice.
Why don't we go with hate? Yeah, I like that. Okay.
Somebody that you hate and you're pissed off. Relax your lips though. cuz you have Novacaine lips, but you are staring them down. There you go. Squint even more. Sell that magazine cover. You got it. Oh, and you tilted too.
