Photographer’s agent, Chanel ambassador, and longtime girlfriend of Terry Richardson, Jen Brill has remained a fixture on the NYC art and fashion scene for quite some time, thanks to her business-savvy creative eye and effortlessly cool style. In short, the girl gets it, and it’s that je ne sais quoi that has girls everywhere enthralled with just about everything she does. If you’re one of those girls, you’re in for a treat over at Into the Gloss, an insider’s beauty blog started by former Teen Vogue intern Emily Weiss. In the latest feature, Brill breaks down her mainstay beauty products and detailed makeup tricks, including her serious mascara routine: “At night I’ll do the bottom lashes too and make crazy spider legs. It takes me at least 10 minutes every day to put on my mascara. Ten minutes, literally—I paint each lash. I’d never do lash extensions though, too fussy,” she tells ITG.
In addition to the loads of Chanel products she endorses, she’s also a big fan of drugstore cleanser Cetaphil (works wonders, people), MAC Ruby Roo lipstick, and haircare products from René Furterer. She’s also a fan of nail art (oh, now you’re interested, huh?!) and recommends Spazio and Valley in New York, and CT Nails in LA, where they apparently do the best airbrushing in the world. Sweet!
