your Beauty Our duty

Whitney Port was at the Sephora Hollywood and Highland store in Los Angeles to kick off Sephora’s “Kiss for a Cause,” a three week long-initiative to benefit The Beauty Bus Foundation, a Los Angeles-based non-profit organization dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for homebound, terminally or chronically ill people and their primary caregivers by bringing beauty into their lives. This foundation provides in-home beauty and grooming treatments, free of charge, to those who might not otherwise have access, helping them maintain dignity and giving them respite during a difficult time.

During the promotion, Sephora is inviting its clients to try one of fall’s hottest trends, the bold, red lip, and donate their kiss to the in-store collage. Whitney Port was among the first to donate her kiss and add it to the growing mosaic of supporters, choosing Make Up For Ever’s Rouge Artist Intense Lipstick in #43, Moulin Rouge ($19) as her favorite shade.



From now until September 15th, $1 of every qualifying red lip purchase at Sephorawill be donated in support of The Beauty Bus Foundation, up to $25,000. To select the perfect red, let a Sephora artist guide you during a custom Red Lip Express Service, or to simply donate a kiss, what better place to explore a trend and feel good about it than at Sephora’s “Kiss for a Cause.” Take your pick from the below participating brands and give the red lip trend a more meaningful look on you and someone else.



Sephora PRO Team makeup artist Jill Powell used Make Up For Ever’s Rouge Artist Intense Lipstick in #43, Moulin Rouge ($19) as the focus of Whitney Port’s total beauty look, then layered on Fusion LipFusion Infatuation Gloss in Screen Siren ($29) to add shine. Both are featured shades in the ">Sephora “Kiss for a Cause” promotion.



This striking lip was balanced with dramatically lined eyes for a glamorous, classic Hollywood look. Sephora Collection Waterproof Smoky Cream Liner in Must Have ($10), a deep, matte black, was applied with a brush in bold strokes over Stila Kitten Eye Shadow ($18), a light, shimmery champagne, creating a sultry doe-eyed effect. Several coats of Sephora Collection Advanced Lash Booster Mascara ($17) finished the look. Tarina Tarantino Dollskin Cheek in Charmed ($25) added a sheer rosy flush to her cheeks and misted TEMPTU AIR pod™ Highlighter in Champagne ($25) to add a hint of illumination. To create the perfect canvas for Whitney’s look, Jill used Josie Maran Tinted Moisturizer ($38) and Smashbox Halo Hydrating Perfecting Powder ($59).



Hair Stylist Robert Steinken complemented her look with a modern, sophisticated ponytail. He smoothed the hair with No Frizz Styling Cream from Living Proof ($14 - $35) and pulled it back into a high ponytail with an elastic. He wrapped a small section of hair over the fastening and spritzed with Hold Flexible Hairspray ($14 - $24), also from Living Proof.
