Look to Try: Anne Hathaway's 3-Shade Lip Palette

With her sophisticated crop, flawless complexion, and doe-eyed makeup, Anne Hathaway looks like she could be Audrey Hepburn's twin.

With her sophisticated crop, flawless complexion, and doe-eyed makeup, Anne Hathaway looks like she could be Audrey Hepburn's twin. And at yesterday's Les Misérables premiere, Anne's classic beauty shone through; the actress walked the red carpet in glistening eye shadow and a ruby-red lip look. "We wanted Anne to look slick and chic in her hometown of NYC," said Chanel celebrity makeup artist Kate Lee, who created Anne's palette for the evening. Mission accomplished.

To get Anne's exact lip color, Lee mixed a trio of the brand's lip shades to get just the right hue: Rouge Allure in Rouge Noir ($34), a black red; Rouge Allure Velvet in La Somptueuse ($33), a deep, warm red; and Rouge Allure in Palpitante ($34), a raspberry red.

Three may be a crowd when it comes to dating and apartment living, but it when it comes to lip color, three's a winner. The reason is because the warm and cool shades form a neutral tone, while the deep red shade gives it all some backbone and edge. So the next time you can't seem to get your lip color your ideal shade, try this warm, cool, and dark technique.

Lush Lower Lashes Are Still In For Fall

Keira Knightley was a vision of classic beauty at the premiere of Anna Karenina last night.

Keira Knightley was a vision of classic beauty at the premiere of Anna Karenina last night. The actress's hair was styled in a sleek side part, which complemented her full brows and bold red lipstick. But it was her full, lush lashes that garnered the most attention, proving that defined bottom eyelashes are still on trend. "We wanted the look to be classic and beautiful," said Chanel celebrity makeup artist Kate Lee.

To achieve the eye look, Lee swept on Laura Mercier Caviar Eyeliner in Navy ($22) and then blended Chanel Quadra Eyeshadow in Lagons ($58) to extend the line. For the long, flirty lashes, Lee applied two coats of Le Volume de Chanel Mascara in Noir ($30, available Nov. 13) after curling. For the doll-like lower lashes Keira wears so well, hold your mascara wand vertically and apply the pigment in downward strokes. This eye makeup and lipstick pairing is perfect for holiday partying and looks classic on everyone.

The Trick to Getting Anne Hathaway's Glossy Lip Stain Look

With her gamine crop, porcelain skin, and doe-eyed makeup, Anne Hathaway bears a striking resemblance to Audrey Hepburn.

With her gamine crop, porcelain skin, and doe-eyed makeup, Anne Hathaway bears a striking resemblance to Audrey Hepburn. But at last night's The Dark Knight Rises premiere, Anne gave her classic beauty look a modern element with glossy, rose-tinged lips.

"Anne wore a white, statuesque, [Prabal Gurung] gown for the NYC premiere, and I wanted to make sure that her beauty was every bit as timeless as her dress," Chanel celebrity makeup artist Kate Lee said. To do this, Lee applied the brand's Rouge Coco Lip Colour in Rivoli ($33) as a stain on the lips, blotting to achieve the desired amount of intensity. To keep it from going too flat, she then dabbed on Elizabeth Arden's Eight Hour cream for moisture. "The result was a beautiful rosy hue," she said.

To complete the palette, Lee used soft vanilla shadow and black cake liner on the eyes, along with a coral-peach blush on the cheeks.

Found! Rooney Mara's Gorgeous, Just-Bitten Lipstick Shade

With her perfectly creamy skin, piercing eyes, and ebony strands, Rooney Mara looked almost like a present-day rendition of a Robert Palmer girl at yesterday's The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo premiere.

With her perfectly creamy skin, piercing eyes, and ebony strands, Rooney Mara looked almost like a present-day rendition of a Robert Palmer girl at yesterday's The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo premiere. But whereas Palmer's muses wore patent-red lipstick and heavy-handed blush and foundation, Mara's look was clean, fresh, and surprisingly simple to re-create.

"The dress was so magnificent, we just decided that she needed to look effortless, and that the lip should look 'bitten,'" explained Chanel celebrity makeup artist Kate Lee. To bring the concept to life, Lee applied the brand's Rouge Allure Velvet Lip Colour in La Somptueuse ($32), a brownish-red, as a stain. The apples of the cheeks were given a creamy glow with Kevyn Aucoin's Tresbelle blush, and black eyeliner and mascara — no eye shadow was used at all — completed the modern-classic palette.

How to Get Anne Hathaway's Golden Globes Look

More than 90 percent of you were gaga for Anne Hathaway's Golden Globes hair and makeup, so here's how you can get the look at home. To create Anne's retro waves, Frederic Fekkai Stylist Adir Abergel applied Fekkai Advanced Full Blown Styling Whip ($23) and sprayed Fekkai Coiff Bouffant Lifting & Texturizing Spray Gel ($23) from her roots to the ends of her hair. Next, he blow-dried her hair lightly with his hands, letting her natural wave surface. With a one inch barrel curling iron, he curled the hair away from her face, placing it into pin curls. Adir let her hair cool, and as he took the pin curls out, let the hair fall naturally into place with a messy center part.

For Anne's makeup, Chanel makeup artist Kate Lee used Fluid Iridescent Eyeshadow in Sand ($32) on her eyes, and on her lips she used Rouge Coco Lip Colour in Mademoiselle ($32) topped with Coco Shine in Bel Ami (available in April).
