Wendi McLendon-Covey, star of the hit comedy Bridesmaids, joined designer Charlie Lapson to speak fashion and tips at the 2013 GBK Gift Lounge. She covered all her essentials, head to toe, literally.

 

To keep her luscious blonde locks shining and voluminous, McLendon-Covey uses Moroccan Oil. She instructs to use a small amount before blow drying your hair. This product “tends to take all the dryness out and just give it a nice shine.” But not too much, “you don’t want to look unwashed” she jokingly says.

In the make-up department, to embellish her bold, stunning eyes, she uses Demi-wispies false lashes. After glaring into the camera to show off her eyes, the funny lady insists “demi-wispies look good on everybody.” And although she normally uses Carmex lip balm, here she opted for an off-pink shade of lipstick, from Rite-Aid. Chic and affordable!

Keeping up with her simple and inexpensive style, the Rule of Engagement actress confesses her top is from Zara. “Zara has great basics,” adds McLendon-Covey, “you’re never going to go wrong if you go into Zara.” Yet, her pants are J. Brand‘s waxed-jeans. To complete the look, all you need is “a good pair of boots.”

What are some of her other beauty must-haves? Well, candles! Not just any candles, but Milena’s that turn into lotion once melted so they leave you “buttery and smelling like blueberry muffins!” And “of, course the Skinnygirl Margarita” she slyly adds. And for the “dry or really dry” California weather, she recommends Avocado oil. All of these sound fabulous!
