#9: Donna Mills Did Abby Ewing’s Makeup Herself
Donna Mills claimed she handled all of her own makeup for Abby Ewing, crafting that sharp, glamorous look herself. The bold eyes, polished finish, and unmistakable Abby confidence weren’t the work of a studio team — they were Mills’ own creation.
She later turned that expertise into a business, launching her own eye makeup brand and tutorial series, The Eyes Have It, in the 1980s. It was perfectly on brand for Abby: stylish, savvy, and always in control — both on Knots Landing and off.
