Sarah Tanno Makeup Products: Haus Labs Essentials for Skin, Eyes and Lips

Sarah Tanno is a makeup artist and Haus Labs global artistry director, a role she took on in 2019. She joined Lady Gaga's team in 2009 and has worked directly with Gaga since 2014, shaping the looks around Joanne (2016) and Chromatica (2020) and the makeup for House of Gucci.

Her client roster includes Priyanka Chopra, Chrissy Teigen and Kate Bosworth, and she has worked with photographers Peter Lindbergh, Annie Leibovitz, Inez & Vinoodh, Tim Walker and Steven Klein. Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, V and Elle are among her editorial credits. She won the 2016 Emmy for Outstanding Makeup for a Limited Series or Movie for American Horror Story: Hotel.

On Haus Labs product pages, Tanno is credited with application tips for eyeliner and mascara. For Optic Intensity Gel Eyeliner, her tip is to blend while the pencil is still workable; for B Structural Mascara, she describes using the flat side at the roots and the hourglass side toward the tips.

The range stretches from base and sculpting products to cheek color, eye definition and several lip finishes. I grouped the selections by where they fit in a routine, so you can build a face in steps instead of chasing one hero item.

I would start with Triclone Skin Tech Foundation and Concealer, then choose a liner or lip finish for the day. A brush can help keep placement precise, especially when you are mixing textures. That is the part of Sarah Tanno's work I like best, a clear technique and room for expression.
