Make-up artist Rea Ann Silva worked with actress Sharon Leal who was a presenter at the 4th Annual ESSENCE Black Women in Hollywood Luncheon yesterday.

It looks hilarious, come on! You know you want to see Sean Combs's latest film with co-stars Jonah Hill and Russell Brand's, "Get Him To The Greek". And who better to do press for it, is Mr. Combs himself. Make-up artist Rea Ann Silva groomed Puffy for the film's domestic press junket...



...and of course, the "Get Him To The Greek" premiere.

Attending premieres are so glamour and when you're the notorious Macy Gray, you really need a good glam team to help you step it up. That's why she called upon her hair stylist John Blaine and make-up artist and beautyblender creator, Rea Ann Silva. Check her out at "The Killers" premiere which stars Ashton Kutcher and Katherine Heigl.

You guys asked for it, so here it is! Make-up Artist Rea Ann Silva dishes on how she achieved this beautiful look on Oscar Winner Mo'Nique on the Barbara Walters Oscar Special last Sunday, March 7th.

For the face, Rea Ann used Kevyn Aucoin concealer in No. 12. She used La Mer Bronze for the inner face and Make-up Forever No. 178 for the outer face, and then used Bobbi Brown powder in Orange yellow for top off the look. To highlight Mo'Nique's face, she used La Mer's The Powder in Translucent. "I like this powder as it has a wonderful iridescence to it, perfect for bringing out the high points on the face."

On the cheeks, she used blush by Scott Barnes in the 3-color palette in Brandy Wine utilizing all 3 shades. Those tantalizing eyes were created by using Christian Dior's 5-color palette in Night Dust. She used Damone Roberts in Latte for the eyebrows and lined the eyes with MAC's Fluidline in Blacktrack. Rea Ann swears by Shu Uemura eyelashes and topped them off with Christian Dior Beauty's Diorshow in Black.

For lips, she not only lined but shaded the lips from the corners inward with Francesca Guerrera Lipliner in Dante Clay. She left the center of the lips nude, highlighting that area as well as the rest of the lips with YSL Golden Gloss in No. 2. And, for that all over body glow, she used Prtty Potion in Dark on the legs and body.

Congrats to India.Arie who's track "Pearls" won Best Urban/Alternative Performance from her album Testimony: Vol. 2 Love & Politics! Take a look at her red-carpet arrival - make-up by Ree Ann Silva.
