Copyright (c) 2010 John HowellThere seem to be two types of women in this world: those who love Sex and the City,know which of the girls they're most like,and have had the date of the second movie's premiere circled on her calendar for months.On the other hand, there are also those women who could care less but are still under the influence of the numerous styles these ladies have inspired over the years whether they know it or not.If you're among the former group,get our your martini glass,kick up your Jimmy Choo's,and get ready for a makeup look inspired by the characters of Sex and the City 2!Carrie,Free-spirited Carrie Bradshaw inspired millions of women to go out on a limb with her style, so for her, anything goes. But if you want a look like she's got in the SATC 2 poster, you'll want to go for a smoky eye with a pale lip.A touch of bronzer gives it that just-go-back-from-a-Middle-Eastern-paradise sizzle. You can also channel the overall sparkly look of the poster with a hint of shimmer in either your eye shadow or dusted on your collarbone.Samantha,Sexy Samantha Jones is a classic and so is her makeup. Samantha lets her eyes do all the talking with a simple, yet sophisticated look that usually consists of neutral colors.Try beige or a deep brown with a slightly thick brown or black liner. Eyebrows should be neat and nicely trimmed for that perfect one-brow look she's so good at giving.Finish the look with a soft blush and creamy lipstick. And don't be afraid of red, Samantha never was! Try this look out and you'll be dating a man with two last names in no time!Miranda,Career-oriented mom Miranda Hobbes was often the serious one on the show. Balancing a tough career and motherhood made Miranda a character many could relate to and her flame red hair and green-blue eyes make for an incredible makeup palate.A daytime Miranda look should embrace soft pink shadow, brown or black mascara and a coral-colored gloss. Take it into nighttime by adding liner to both top and bottom lash lines and a creamy, peach lipstick.Charlotte, Sweet, good-natured Charlotte was considered the "good girl" of the series. But like many of us, she was a busy mom who still cared about looking good. Her no-fuss look features earthy shades that compliment brown eyes, so anything in the green spectrum works perfectly.Eyeliner and mascara should be black, but keep it just on the top lid. Top off the look with a pinky blush and lip color to match. Add neatly trimmed brows, subdued jewelry, and that patented Charlotte squeal and you're ready to do lunch!
