Permanently Beautiful

When you’re standing in the checkout line at the grocery, who doesn’t love to sneak a peek at the less than glamorous pics of Hollywood’s elite on the pages of Star or the Globe? It’s fun to catch the rich and famous with their hair down and their makeup off; kind of levels the field. One celeb the paparazzi will never catch in a less than photog-ready moment is singer-songwriter and business mogul Dolly Parton. Despite the admonishments of cosmeticians to strip off your makeup at night to give your pores a rest, the Nashville legend with the giggly laugh goes to bed with her makeup intact, particularly when she’s visiting LA or NYC where her Tony Award-nominated Broadway show 9 to 5: The Musical will close on Labor Day.

Dolly isn’t about to let the paparazzi catch her in a Nick Nolte moment. “I think I’m not going to wash my face until morning, and then I’ll clean it off and I’ll put it on in case I have to get up in the middle of the night,” she told CNN. “If I go out in public, people expect me to look a certain way. And if you say, ‘There’s Dolly’ … you expect to see them in the way that … you know them.”

What Dolly needs is permanent makeup. With natural-looking permanent eyeliner and permanent lip color, you look picture perfect day and night.
