Supermodel Tyra Banks' latest venture is a cosmetics experience called Tyra Beauty, which came about after years of learning the tricks of the trade from some of the world's most renowned makeup artists. According to Vibe Vixen, the supermodel turned mogul felt the need to share her beauty secrets with women around the world who don't necessarily wake up with high cheekbones or voluminous lashes. Banks sat with Glamour Magazine and gave them the total inside scoop on how she does her makeup in five minutes.

1. Start with eyeshadow.

"The first thing I do is sweep a brown shadow stick along my top and bottom lashes. I just slap it on! The messier, the better. Then I smudge the heck out of it with my finger. I'll get up into the creases if I want more depth and definition. But do your eyes in a safe zone like a bathroom or at your desk before getting into a moving car."

2. Add liner and mascara.

"My liner game used to be a hot mess. I fussed with Q-tips and makeup remover to fix me boo-boos, but everything would smear. That's the reason I designed my Oops Liner with a liner liquid on one end and a corrector on the other. Now I just go for it, because I can sharpen those wings instantly. You don't need any skills! Then I hit my lashes with at least three coats of mascara. Twirl the wand as you swipe for clump-free application."

3. Contour your face.

"Makeup artists like Kevyn Aucoin and Charlotte Tilbury shared this trick: Swipe a nude contour crayon from the center of your ears diagonally down, right under cheekbones, to about an inch and a half away from the corner of your mouth. Next, shade along the top of your forehead near your hairline, from temple to temple, and down both sides of your nose. Then pat it all in with your middle finger to blend."

4. Be precise with your highlighter.

"I apply the shimmer cream from the top of my cheekbones out toward my temples and use my index finger to diffuse the sheen. That way my whole face isn't scary frosty, it's just glowy right where I put it."

5. Use blush for a sexy flush.

"If I want that wind-flushed look, I dot the apples of my cheeks with the blush stick and tap. If I'm feeling that super-sexy tint, then I glide on the stick to get more color."

6. Finish the look with lipstick.

"It's my jam. And my application is always on point, even without a mirror. I'll do a swipe in the center of my top and bottom lips with my mouth open, then press my lips together to smooth out the color. A rosy shade that's somewhere between a balm and a stain, like my What Lipstick? in Ask for a Raise, is sheer gorgeousness. For everyday, one swipe is effortlessly chic. But for more 'shazam, I'll pile on a few layers.

Tyra recently posted a video via social media asking her fans to post a photo or video of what makes them fierce and tag with hash tags #MakeupFierceUp and #TyraAtHSN for a chance to be featured on her live HSN show Friday, November 7th!
