Blue Moon

Remember when the producers of Moonlighting started to think Cybill was getting a little long in the tooth during her years at the Blue Moon Detective agency? This is back in the day, kids. Haven’t seen it? Rent it! Finally out on DVD! Plus you can develop an all-consuming crush on Bruce Willis, as I did, and be crestfallen that you can’t invent a time machine to swiftly bring you back to 1986, where he had much more hair, but interestingly, still not very much. Nonetheless, he’s never been more appealing.
Enough lust.
On to makeup.
They gave Cybill this soft focus or maybe a certain lighting-gel that just smooooooooothed everything out. She sort of always looked candle-lit and gauzy. It got a little extreme toward the end, but she worked that blur like nobody’s business in season 2 and 3.
Why am I talking TV you ask? Well, my possums, I’m here to tell you that you can get the Cybil blur—in real life! No gaffer required!
There are many products in this ilk, but one stands alone.
Clarins Instant Smooth: Perfecting touch. Smear under eyes, lines and pores--for real! Mine are usually big enough to store my off-season wardrobe, but no more! It really creates a softened, fuzzy, near-perfect look. My favorite way to apply is:

1. Moisturize normally
2. Apply where you need—sorry—want it.
3. Go about your other business i.e.; dry the hair, choose the outfit, etc.
4. Come back to put foundation on after 10 minutes or so—-the perplexing but miraculous micro-pearls have filled in any and all crows and pocks.
5. Look stunning.
