The Notebook Make-up by Linda Grimes Skincare –Rachel’s skin was prepped with Dr. Hauschka Rhythmic
Conditioner Sensitive Ampules, La Mer Eye Balm and La Mer Face Cream.
Foundation –Linda started by priming Rachel’s skin with
Laura Mercier Foundation Primer. For Rachel’s creamy complexion, Linda
mixed Gerda Spillmann Biofond Foundation in Weekend and Apres Chic.
Concealer – Linda mixed Amazing Cosmetics Concealer in Light
with Golden Light and used a brush to apply it to Rachel’s under eye
area. Once applied, she blended the concealer into Rachel’s skin with
her finger. Powder – To set foundation, Linda used Paula Dorf Vanilla Pressed
Powder and Amazing Cosmetics Powder Set. Cheeks – Rachel usually wore a combination of Stila Rose and
Petunia blended onto cheeks. Sometimes Gerda Spillmann Crimson was used alone
or mixed with Stila Petunia. Eyes – For the most part, her eyes were kept very nude. Linda
used MAC cream-colored shades like Brule or Mylar from lid to brow. For some
scenes she would punch up the eye color with Paula Dorf Eye Color in Safari.
Eye liner - A thick black line was created using MAC Crème
liner in Black with Paula Dorf Transformer. Linda applied liner along lash
line on upper lid. She didn’t really use any liner on bottom.
Brows – For the character’s younger years, her brows were
bleached. In her later years, Linda penciled in brows with Maybelline Expert
Eyes in Blonde and Dark Brown pencils. Mascara – Lashes were always curled. Maybelline Waterproof Great
Lash mascara in Black coasted top lashes only. For later years, individual
lashes were applied to the top outer corners of lash line. Lips – Lips were filled in with MAC Rosewood lip pencil and topped
off with Dr. Hauschka Lip Balm. For different scenes and to give the lip
color different intensities, Linda added Paula Dorf lip pencil in Carousel
and Paula Dorf lipstick in Gorgeous into the already filled in Rosewood lip.
For a redder mouth, Linda filled lip in with a mix of MAC Rosewood and Paula
Dorf Carousel
