Insta-Inspiration: 5 Makeup Artists to Follow on Instagram

In need of some beauty inspiration? Try Instagram. The social media app is allowing users to get real-time inspiration, tips and tricks from some of the best makeup artists in the business. Getting quick tidbits on your Insta-feed makes getting a daily dose of beauty painless. Here are five great accounts to follow and see through the eyes of some beauty gurus.

1. Pat McGrath @patmcgrathreal
McGrath is one the biggest names in the make-up business and has been called the most influential makeup artist in the world by Vogue. If you just want to follow one beauty Instagram, make it this one.

2. Carmindy @carmindy_beauty
If her name sounds familiar, it’s because of her long time stint with TLC’s “What Not to Wear.” Her Instagram is jam-packed with tips, tricks and insider information.

3. Charlotte Tilbury @ctilburymakeup
She provides a great mix of beauty and fashion along with tips and tricks. Tilbury’s clients include Kate Moss and Penelope Cruz and top designers such as Tom Ford often make appearances.

4. Gucci Westman @gucciwestman
If more than just beauty tips is what you desire, follow Gucci. Her Instagram is filled with beautiful things that extend beyond makeup; however, her clients include Halle Berry and Elle Macpherson, so her beauty tips are definitely worth checking out, too.

5. Sonia Kashuk @soniakashuk
Kashuk owns her own national makeup line, but her Instagram goes beyond promotion of her products. Throwback Thursdays are especially great with Cindy Crawford and Christy Turlington making appearances.
