When it comes to Cannes Film Festival, some people are focused on the actors, others on the fashion, but we are zooming in on the manicures. The glamorous dresses call for equally exciting nail designs. Get an up close look at the best nail art and polish spotted in the South of France.
The Cannes Film Festival is well under way, with stars like Audrey Tautou, Nicole Kidman, and Emma Watson showing face at photocalls. These more casual events are a feast for the eyes — and not just for the beautiful fashion choices the celebrities make. Their hair and makeup are typically fresh, pretty, and (most importantly) easy to replicate at home. Click through to see all of the best photocall looks straight from Cannes.
The annual Billboard Music Awards celebrate the best in the music industry, but celebrities use it as a chance to debut some seriously edgy beauty looks. Elaborate updos, colorful eyeliner, and bright shadow hues are always expected to be seen on the talented women who strut down the red carpet. Want to take a closer look? Click through to zoom in on your favorite looks from the night.
Blondes are having a serious moment in Hollywood, with celebrities like Anne Hathaway and Demi Lovato recently making the switch. But they aren't the first ones who have taken the plunge with a color change. Click through to see some stars you may have forgotten, who have experimented with lightened locks.
It takes a lot to be a bridesmaid these days. Between the dresses you won't ever wear again, the bachelorette parties, and tending to the needs of the bride-to-be, these girls deserve some credit. Send them a big thank you by giving them some pretty beauty gifts to help them pamper themselves after the big day.
Some nights you can't get your full eight hours of sleep in — heck, some nights, six is but a dream. And while there are countless brightening concealers on the market to assist in feigning well-restedness, I keep turning to Neutrogena's Healthy Skin Brightening Eye Perfector SPF 25 ($13). That's because it's light enough to not look obvious, but hefty enough to get the job done. Instead of masking the skin with a visible, glistening layer of product, this brightener lifts and subtly conceals. It's not full-on coverage, however. Reach for a corrector or heavy-duty concealer for times when you need to disguise the darkest of circles. Antioxidants such as chamomile, soy, and vitamin E protect, while a flow-through brush makes application smooth. Now if only your nightly appointment with Mr. Sandman could be just as effortless . . .
