Krist Bansuelo, makeup artist to the stars, was our main man for beauty.

He's all about the airbrush technology!

Krist and Maricar share a laugh in the makeup room.

Krist says airbrush makeup is best because it goes on evenly, and so finely that it still looks natural, even in HD.

They're at it again!

Maricar looks lovely, even without any makeup on.

Things are getting serious again.
