Oscars 2013 Beauty: Get The Looks From Jennifer Lawrence, Amanda Seyfried And More!

Posted 2/25/13 10:00 am EST by Annamarie Tendler in Awards Shows, Beauty

The movies! The dresses! The makeup! The hair! Oh my god, isn't awards season over already!? The Oscars is the grand finale of award shows and I can't even imagine how sick everyone is of putting on Spanx and walking in 6 inch heels. It must be very difficult to put on couture Dior and have your makeup done, so thank you, ladies of Hollywood, for rallying on last night!

Here are some of my favorite beauty looks from the Oscars, and how to get the key aspects of those looks.

Choosing a colorful eye makeup is super risky for an event like the Oscars; Amanda Seyfried's lavender shadow is an example of how it works! It looks especially beautiful with her bright blue eyes. The trick to wearing colorful eye makeup is to keep everything else on the face light. In other words, don't do this with red lips, you'll look like a clown! To get Amanda's shadow try NARS 413 BLKR Duo.

1. Use a light shimmery shade over the entire lid.
2. Apply the dark shade in NARS 413BLKR Duo lightly along the lash line of the outer corners of the eyes.
3. Apply the light purple shade into the crease and into dramatic wings.
4. Apply the light purple shade lightly under the bottom lashes as a drop shadow.

Rihanna, Beyonce, Florence Welch And More 2013 Grammy Beauty Looks You Can Steal

Posted 2/11/13 11:06 am EST by Annamarie Tendler in Awards Shows, Beauty, Grammys

While the 2013 Grammys lacked both meat dresses and see-through lace gowns, the attendees didn't seem to follow that fashion advisory memo CBS sent out in hopes of curbing "inappropriate" nudity. They didn't actually think that, of all people, musicians would listen, did they? Even with side-boob and full leg exposed, the Grammys seemed a bit more tame and glamorous this year than in years past, and of course we could count on a lot of great hair and makeup. Below are some of my favorite beauty looks from the night along with tips on how to get the signature piece of the look.

Dare I say best dressed?? Rihanna always looks good, but I'm not sure we've ever seen her look this glamorous. Her hair is to die for, but my favorite thing about this look is how perfectly her lips match her dress. To get lips as good as this, I'd recommend trying NARS Semi Matte lipstick in Jungle Red.

Kelly Osbourne, Jessica Chastain, Claire Danes And More: How To Get Their SAG Awards Beauty Looks!

Posted 1/28/13 10:00 am EST by Annamarie Tendler in Awards Shows, Beauty

Last night were the SAG awards, an award show where actors come together to celebrate the year's best movies. Wait a minute, isn't that the Golden Globes? And the Oscars? So, what exactly ARE the SAG awards, because I really have no idea? I'd also like to point out that two nights ago were the Producer's Guild Awards, an event even more mystifying than the SAG awards. Hollywood cannot get enough award shows! But that's ok, it just gives us another excuse to watch attractive people in fancy clothing do those awkward presenting bits and give uncomfortable acceptance speeches. You know you love it.

And of course there's the fashion. Below are some of my favorite beauty looks of the night, along with tutorials on how to achieve the defining piece of each look. Enjoy!

KELLY OSBOURNE

Resident Fashion Police co-host Kelly Osbourne looked stunning. I loved her full glam makeup, complete with perfect red lips and voluminous lashes, but I gotta say, my favorite thing about this girl is her hair. If you at home are thinking about sporting lavender locks, here's an easy way to get them without a professional colorist.

1. Buy some violet hair dye, like Directions. You will notice this looks very dark, don't worry!
2. In a tinting bowl mix a LOT of conditioner (doesn't matter what kind) with just a DAB of the violet dye. Keep adding the violet dye until you have the desired color, you won't need much.
3. Apply to hair and put on a shower cap. You will look really cool at this point.
4. Heat your hair with a blow dryer and wash dye out after about 35 mins.

Posted 1/14/13 9:00 am EST by Annamarie Tendler in 'It' Girls, Beauty, Golden Globes, Red Carpet

The Golden Globes are great. What's not to love about a laid back, boozy affair, but in fancy clothes? What could be better than that? We've already broken down some of the night's biggest trends, and told you our top looks, but what about the beauty?! The hair and makeup tended toward the natural this year, with a few retro hairdos thrown in the mix. Here are my favorite beauty looks of the night, in no particular order!

I loved this hair color on her, it really makes her eyes stand out. Kristen's smoky eye makeup was a breath of fresh air among all the natural faces.

If you're going out on New Years Eve you're probably carrying a clutch or small purse, because seriously, who wants a big bag getting in your way when you're are simultaneously counting down to 2013 and trying to kiss your date? Unfortunately fancy bags are about the size of Cindarella's glass slipper and hold things just as effectively, so we have to think efficiently when packing our purses. Along with a couple $20's in case your debit card falls out of your bag, and your debit card in case your cash falls out of your bag, here are the most important items to put in your cramped clutch!

The Best Red Carpet Beauty Looks Of 2012

Posted 12/18/12 7:05 pm EST by Annamarie Tendler in Beauty, Best Of 2012

Editors Note: Phew! Can you believe we're exactly one week away from Christmas? And only two weeks away from New Year's? The time is FLYING and it's probably because we're having so much fun sharing our 2012 faves with you (sorry, we had to). Yesterday we brought you a sillier one, our the biggest cat ladies of 2012, and tonight we bring it back to something you might have expected a little more of us, which is the best red carpet beauty looks of 2012. To narrow down our immense list of much-loved looks, we enlisted beauty correspondent Annamarie Tendler, who you might know from The Daily Face, and her halloween makeup tutorial on House Of Style! We commend her for being able to pick her top 5. There were so many good ones, we were about going crazy just thinking about having to choose!

While the dress reigns king when stepping out on the red carpet, we can't forget how hair and makeup can make or break a look. A bad chignon or over done face can destroy everything, while an amazing updo or knockout red lips can save a boring dress. Here are my top five favorite beauty looks from the red carpet this year. Oh, and the dresses aren't bad either.

CAMILLA BELLE, THE MET BALL

This is a gutsy look and it totally worked, not many woman could pull off something this harsh. This is a perfect example of dress, hair and makeup complementing each other perfectly. Camilla Belle looks like she walked out of a party in The Great Gatsby. I want to dress like this every day.

Halloween 2012: A Quick, Easy and Ferocious Leopard Costume

Your completed leopard look!.

This is what happens to me every Halloween: I say, "I'm not going out, I'm not going out, I'M NOT GOING OUT!" And then, two days before the 31st, I decide, "ok FINE, I'll go out!" Frantic running around New York City then ensues, as I hilariously try to scrape together some half-baked idea. Of course, I always come up with something totally brilliant in the middle of the night, but there is no way I'd be able to pull it off in time. Does this scenario sound familiar to any of you? Yes? Well then this post is for you!

New York Fashion Week Spring 2013 Superlatives

Posted 9/14/12 3:59 pm EST by Annamarie Tendler in Fashion Week, New York Fashion Week

The shoes! The bags! The ridiculous outfits! We reveled in it all, but sadly New York Fashion Week has come to a close. Throughout the week we have seen the best and the worst of what fashion can be, from the the dresses that make us drool, to the front row outfits that make us say, “Wait, you wore that?!” There’s no such thing as a Fashion Week Yearbook (in my opinion there should be each season) but I went ahead and put together my Fashion Week Superlatives anyway... you know, just in case.

ALL AROUND BEST LOOK: KELLY OSBOURNE

I love everything about this. Her bun is crazy and so are all the colors, but it works because of the simple silhouette of the dress.

Blondes Have More Fun (At The 2012 VMAs)

Posted 9/7/12 3:18 am EST by Annamarie Tendler in Awards Shows, Beauty, Red Carpet, Video Music Awards

Holy bleach! Holy beach! Blonde and tan was the theme of this year’s VMA red carpet. In the spirit of healthy competition we’re going to play a little three-on-three. I’ve grouped the ladies into two teams (based on their lip color, of course): Team Red and Team Nude. And while Team Nude is without a doubt the most visually striking, I think Team Red’s polished, old Hollywood look may lead them to victory in these Blonde vs. Blonde games. Let’s start with Team Nude:

TEAM NUDE: PINK

Pink looked like, well, herself. Her style hasn’t changed much since she swapped pink locks for blonde ones oh-so many years ago, but that’s cool, she has a thing that works and she’s stickin’ to it. Her smoky eye makeup looks great and her lipstick color was spot on. It’s really hard to find the right lip color for the tan skin/white-blond hair combination without looking freakish, so it’s best to go with some version of your natural lip color with a little gloss. This is exactly what Pink did and it looks great.
