Behind the scenes of today's makeup shoot

On this shoot we decided to use color! Color, color, color with one of my favorite girls and photographers to end the year! We were inspired by the many beautiful bright colors that wouldn't normally be used together.

Nicki for viva glam

Nicki Minaj is living the glamorous life. The rap diva teams up with Ricky Martin in the latest campaign for M.A.C Cosmetics’ M.A.C AIDS Fund VIVA GLAM. In the first photo from the shoot, a pink-haired Nicki crouches on a motorcycle as the Latin superstar holds up a giant lipstick.

The colorful campaign was shot by famed photographer David LaChapelle and will launch next February. All proceeds from VIVA GLAM lip products benefit the fight against HIV/AIDS.

Past VIVA GLAM spokesmodels include Lady Gaga, Missy Elliott, Lil’ Kim, Eve, Mary J. Blige, Christina Aguilera, and Fergie. The fund has raised $224 million to date.

Beautiful in all tones

For my first shoot back on the set we were inspired by the beauty of dark skin. Some people may instantly think of "Black face". In fashion today being of a richer skin tone is all the rage. Models like Alek Wek are a prime example the you can be rich in color and be beautiful. I had a lot of fun on this shoot
