Fake lashes are the secret to getting gorgeous Pretty Little Liars eyes. "Every single girl wears lashes -- even in the morning looks! Sometimes we're having a no-makeup morning and so we'll give them brown lashes with maybe a little bit of mascara", PLL makeup artist Cindy Miguen said. Shay Mitchell particularly loves using fake lashes to get a gorgeous, full lash look.
The Liars have gorgeous, defined cheekbones and a fan brush is the perfect tool for contouring. "Every pretty little liar has a fan-brush in their makeup case", Cindy Miguens explained. "This is how we get the famous contour look that the girls are now wearing every day." What makeup brush brand do they use on the PLL set? Cindy recommends using Sigma brushes. She says "They're dense and your color goes on the way it looks in the palette. Right now they're my favorite."
Perhaps the most important tip Cindy Miguens gave is how to get clear skin. How do the PLL girls get such flawless skin? They use all-over face masks. "I've been fortunate to discover the masquerade mask that you've probably seen Shay and Ashley[Benson] wear a lot. These are wonderful as well as they give you moisture in the morning. So if the girls are getting their hair done in the morning, they'll wear the mask or the eye patches and then they're ready for me and all prepped for their makeup."

Cindy Miguens also talked about the evolving makeup looks on PLL. The makeup look changes based on the plotlines on the show. For season 6A, she adjusted the makeup routine to make the girls look like they have been trapped in Charles’s dollhouse. Of course, the Liars wouldn’t have a chance to apply flawless makeup while getting tortured by Charles.
"I love making people look like what they're supposed to look like and these girls had a horrible time –They were kidnapped for three weeks! [To achieve the look] we used purples and we used reds. It's kind of like how you look like after a night of partying, and you didn’t wash your makeup. We all know what that look looks like, so basically that was my motivation."
The time jump that occurs between PLL season 6A and 6B will also change the makeup style of the Liars. Their look will change now that they are no longer high school girls. "There is definitely going to be a difference in their whole entire look. More done-up, more polished. It's going to be probably Sex and the City meets Pretty Little Liars so you guys are going to be in for a big surprise." Sex and the City meets Pretty Little Liars? Can’t wait!
