She always looks fresh and healthy with her minimal-makeup look, but when she gets dressed up for a special occasion, she's a classic beauty. Read on to see how she primps in between the movie premieres and CD release parties.
Which beauty products are your must-haves?
H2O+ Face Oasis Hydrating Treatment, gel blush, foundation primer, and Clean & Clear facial wipes — they're excellent for traveling, especially with the liquids ban on airlines.
What’s your favorite beauty ritual?
Getting a haircut. It’s so refreshing and there’s usually a neck massage involved. It’s such a great way to feel beautiful and make a brand new start.

Makeup artist Napoleon Perdis is already a star in his native Australia, but now he's making a mark in the States. His cosmetics line is stocked in Sephora, he's opening up more of his own boutiques, he has a training academy in Los Angeles, and he's about to star in his own reality TV show. Busy guy! I recently popped down to LA for a weekend and enjoyed a tour of the Napoleon Perdis Makeup Academy. Read on to see the facilities, including a shot of the VIP room where celebrities primp and prepare for red-carpet events.
The Oscars and the Golden Globes seem like forever ago, but lucky for us we got spoiled big time last night thanks to the 2008 Costume Institute Gala. This year's theme was superheroes and even though no one brought the drama quite like hostess Anna Wintour, Fab and Bella still had plenty to talk about. Be sure to cast your votes below.

Kate Moss is like old cheese. That might sound like an insult, but what I mean is that she keeps getting better with age. Even though she's one of the world's most-photographed women, it's hard to tire of her face. Those cheekbones, those angles, those eyes! Compared to many of the other women at the Costume Institute Gala, Kate didn't do much with her hair and makeup. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if she tossed her hair back and slicked on some Rimmel eyeliner on her own. And she looks fantastic, no?
Tonight Diane Kruger looked like a cross between Kristin Chenoweth and an Austin Powers femme-bot. Doesn't sound like a compliment, but really it is. She was more daring than most, choosing a pastel pink on her lips and a similar tone on her cheeks. The rest of her makeup and her updo look lovely, but nothing too revolutionary. More than anything, like Fab, I'm really digging her dress. You?
Rachel Bilson was out shopping in LA looking vintage-chic in a pair of shearling boots. Although the fur stole the show, the rest of her outfit was just as cute.
