Celebrity makeup artist Patrick Ta shares his secret to a ‘healthy glow’
Ever wonder what your favorite celebrities buy when they’re browsing their favorite boutique or shopping online late at night? Welcome to Six Picks, where we ask stars to spill their style and beauty must-haves — so you can shop like you’re famous, too.
Patrick Ta is a real glow-getter.
From working with stars like Gigi Hadid and Halle Berry to building his namesake beauty brand, the celebrity makeup artist is hard at work these days. So when it comes to taking care of himself along the way, he’s prioritizing both inner and outer wellness.
“When your skin is nourished from the inside, makeup just enhances what’s already there,” the beauty pro — who recently teamed up with Vital Proteins — tells Page Six Style. (He mixes one of the brand’s travel-friendly collagen peptide packets in his coffee every morning.)
“A healthy glow starts with a strong base – that’s how I create my signature looks and bring out natural radiance,” he added of the supplements, which also count stars like Jennifer Aniston as longtime fans and ambassadors.
But peptides aren’t the only essential you’ll find in his Amazon cart; read on for all the staples Ta keeps on hand.
