Katy Perry is known for her daring makeup and clothing, but last night at the This Is It premiere in LA, she chose an understated look.

30 Stars Show Us How (and How Not) to Wear Colorful Hair
Admit it: Sometimes you want Jem and the Holograms hair ( I get dibs on Aja). I know it can be a little scary, or seem extreme, but there's no time like the present to try a little wild color.

I'm loving Christina Ricci's makeup look from the recent Spike Scream Awards in LA, and lucky for us, we've got the scoop on the perfectly rosy lip gloss shade she wore as a stain while presenting the Breakout Male Performance award to Twilight's Taylor Lautner.

Each limited-edition gift set comes with a Color Fever Gloss — Christina wore Ma Cherie Cherry — and a Le Vernis nail polish.
How-To: Megan Fox's Sophisticated Makeup
