Beauty Mark Results: MTV Movie Awards Makeover

BellaSugar — Tue, 03 Jun 2008 15:01:16 -0700

The MTV Movie Awards aired on Sunday, and even though the whole thing was one big Summer movie trailer, there were some enjoyable moments (hello Wayne's World). As expected, though, the most exciting part for me was watching the starlets walk the red carpet and debating their beauty choices.

Last week, I asked you all to imagine what makeup you would wear to the awards show. Reader Chiquita25 and her suggestion of Chanel Aqualumiére Gloss, was right on the money. I say this because it looks like the exact product that Lauren Conrad applied to her pout. And who's more MTV than Miss Conrad? Brava.

How-To: Anne Hathaway's MTV Movie Awards Makeup

BellaSugar — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 14:00:51 -0700

Of all the stars at the MTV Movie Awards, Anne Hathaway won the most love in the love it or hate it polls. I like how this look is sophisticated and warm - and just perfect for a warm-weather date. Surprisingly, it's not that hard to re-create the look at home. For full instructions, read more.

FACE: Anne's skin looks even thanks to a medium-coverage foundation. I like Elizabeth Arden Intervene makeup ($36) because it goes on smoothly, covers imperfections, and looks natural. After applying the foundation with a brush, cover any undereye circles with a creamy concealer. Bring a little color to your cheeks by applying a soft, shimmer-free rose blush such as Lancôme Blush Subtil ($29.50) in Cedar Rose. If you would like to set your makeup with a translucent powder, feel free.

EYES: Use a brush to fill in any sparse spaces in your eyebrows with powder, but don't make it too perfect. For the eye shadow, you'll need a shimmery light champagne shadow and a medium brown shadow. (Since Anne is a Lancôme spokesperson, I'm going to guess that she's wearing two shades from the Cabana Sunset palette.)

Cover your eyelid from lash line to crease with the lighter shadow, but don't pull it up to the brow bone. Use a thin brush to apply the same shade just underneath the lower-lash line. Then, sweep the darker eye shadow along the crease of your eyelid and blend well. Using a sharp dark brown eyeliner pencil, line your upper and lower lash lines, going into the lash line. Curl your top eyelashes (here's how) and cover them with two coats. Swipe a coat on the bottom lashes as well.

LIPS: Moist, full lips are key. If you have any flakiness, exfoliate by putting warm water on a washcloth and gently rubbing your lips. Then, apply a sheer pink lipstick such as Lancôme Le Rouge Absolue in Pink Diamond.

Trend Alert: Absentee Eye Shadow at the MTV Movie Awards

BellaSugar — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 12:02:24 -0700

The beauty looks at the MTV Movie Awards last night were all similar. We saw lots of black-lined eyes, nude lips, and subdued cheeks. It's a very pretty look, but nothing that got my heart pounding. Something I did notice was the lack of eye shadow on the red carpet on Megan Fox, Ellen Page, and Liv Tyler.

Lauren Conrad was almost added to this list, but I took out my magnifying glass and spied a hint of taupe crease shadow and a little shimmer below the brow bone. What are your thoughts on eye shadow for dressy events? Do you wear a little, a lot or, skip it altogether?

How-To: Liv Tyler's MTV Movie Awards Hairstyle

BellaSugar — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 11:00:29 -0700

Liv Tyler looked gorgeous last night on the red carpet. Her skin was pale, yet slightly dewy and radiant. Her makeup was minimal, and her hair looked relaxed in loose, effortless sexy, beachy waves.

I love a girl who can look comfortable at a big-time Hollywood event, don't you? If any of you are interested in re-creating this hairstyle at home, all you'll need is a product that provides slight hold, a hair dryer, a curling iron, and a wide-toothed comb.

For step-by-step directions, read more.

STEP 1: After you wash and condition your hair, gently towel dry and get rid of snarls and tangles by using a wide-toothed comb. Either get dressed or apply your makeup so that you hair has time to air-dry a little bit.
STEP 2: Apply a texturizing styling product such as Bumble and Bumble Surf Spray to your damp hair from roots to ends. Tip: Keep in mind that if your hair is slightly curly or thick, you'll want to apply product while your hair is still very wet, fresh from the shower. Also, if your hair is oily, only apply product to the lengths and ends, avoiding your roots.
STEP 3: Once you've applied the product, it's time to dry your hair. Set your hairdryer to the coolest, lowest setting and tousle hair until it's dry.
STEP 4: Since this is a sleeker version of the typical wavy, (slightly frizzy) beach hair, you'll want to add shine and refine the waves. Take a curling iron and use it like a flat-iron on the roots of your hair to make it smoother. As you get a third of the way down, curl hair around the barrel and let it sit for about 10 seconds. When you are finished with your entire head, shake out the curls, finger a few back into place and mist your entire head with a light-hold hairspray.

Love It or Hate It? Megan Fox's MTV Movie Awards Look

BellaSugar — Sun, 01 Jun 2008 18:07:24 -0700

Megan Fox has stick-straight, wind-blown locks, icy metallic blue eyeliner, and infinitely long lashes. But let's face it, all I can look at is her berry-glossed pout. However, it is refreshing to see such natural, sunkissed-looking skin . . . you can even see her freckles! Do you like?

Love It or Hate It? Paris Hilton's MTV Movie Awards Look

BellaSugar — Sun, 01 Jun 2008 17:48:00 -0700

Paris went for '60s Hollywood glam at the MTV Movie Awards with her teased short bouffant, pale pink gloss, and double cat-eye liquid liner. She's looking a little too Miss America for my taste, especially with the heavy fake tan, but she does look very Paris. What do you think?

Love It or Hate It? Liv Tyler's MTV Movie Awards Look

bella — Sun, 01 Jun 2008 17:37:32 -0700

Liv Tyler is absolutely radiating in her pretty-in-pink frock. To go with her dress, Liv chose a complementary soft pink lip shine and a similar shade for the shadow under her perfectly plucked brows. Even more perfect is the shoulder length, wavy hair. Her look is very pretty, not scary at all like her new movie. What do you think?

Love It or Hate It? Anne Hathaway's MTV Movie Awards Look

BellaSugar — Sun, 01 Jun 2008 17:37:23 -0700

Do you think that Anne Hathaway wakes up in the morning and thinks of ways to outdo everyone else in the beauty arena? Seriously, it's hard to find instances of her looking even slightly unkempt.

It's no different at the MTV Movie Awards, where she was one of the few women to choose an updo. And I love how the warm brown and copper tones bring out her eyes. Overall, she looks content and glamorous - so unless you object, I'll bring you a tutorial tomorrow.

Love It or Hate It? Heidi Montag's MTV Movie Awards Look

BellaSugar — Sun, 01 Jun 2008 17:34:56 -0700

Is it just me, or is Heidi looking a little uncomfortable? I'll admit, her lack of a smile, plus the super-blonde feathered hair, smoky eye, and pink pout are all making me a little uncomfortable, so I can't really blame her. What about you?
