Get The Look - Drew Barrymore at The 2014 Golden Globes

Monday, January 13, 2014


Celebrity: Drew Barrymore
Hairstylist: John D.
Brand: TRESemmé 

The ever-beautiful and glowing Drew Barrymore sparkled in a ultra-feminine and sweet Monique Lhuillier gown at last night's Golden Globe Awards. Must like her colorful gown, the chic starlet chose to keep her hair sleek and beauty look light and airy. Celebrity hairstylist, John D. expertly styled Drew's hair which looked soft to the touch and shined beautifully. Using must-have TRESemme products, John details how to get this look in just a few simple steps.

Prep -- liberally sprtiz towel-dry hair with a thermal heat protectant spay (TRESemme Creations Heat Tamer Spray). Make sure to comb hair through to ensure even distribution of product. 

Style -- using a flat boar bristle paddle brush, blow out hair. Using this type of brush allows enough tension on each sectioned piece of hair which allows for smoother and more lustrous strands. Once fully dry, run a straightening iron (on a low-to-medium setting) to seal hair and amplify the shine factor. 

Finishing Touches -- part hair down the side and tuck behind ears. Tame flyaways and ensure a smooth partition by applying a bit of mousse to finger tips and running product along hair. For added smoothness and shine, John recommends lightly coating hair in a hair creme. Focus on ends of hair to seal the overall look. 

This sleek and easy to wear hair feels low-maintenance yet chic enough to sport at your next fete. While I personally haven't straightened my hair for years, Drew's look just may push me to try this look once again. What your thoughts on this look?

Get The Look - Amy Adams at The Golden Globes


Celebrity: Amy Adams 
Makeup Artist: Stephen Sollitto 
Brands: Laura Mercier

American Hustle star, Amy Adams wowed all in a stunning red Valentino number last night at the Golden Globes. Although her dress was stunning on its own, Amy's chic complimentary 1970's inspired beauty look made it that much more beautiful. Makeup artist Stephen Sollitto took a note from Golden Globe Nominee's film and opted for a healthy-glowing fresh face -- the focus of the look. 

Stephen provided the step-by-step guide on how to achieve this look. 

Face 

Prep -- the skin was the focal point of the look so properly hydrating and prepping the skin was key. The evening before, Stephen primed the skin with ReVive's Moisturizing Renewal Cream Retexturizing Hydrator and ReVive's Moisturizing Renewal Eye Cream Ultra Retexturizing Hydrator after cleansing the skin. 

Foundation -- skin had to be flawless and fresh so Stephen opted for Laura Mercier's Smooth Finish Flawless Fluide (to launch FALL 2014) as Amy's foundation. Not only is the formula long-wearing and oil free but also light on skin. “This foundation goes on easily but the finish is very polished. The best thing is that is gives you a matte finish so you don't have to dust your face with loose powder. It's built in, simple and genius," he says. 

Glow -- for the 70's glow, lightly dust Laura Mercier Bronzing Pressed Powder (Matte Bronze). Follow with Laura Mercier's Creme Cheek Color (Praline) blended onto cheeks with your fingers. 

Eyes -- for the neutral look with the hint of color, Stephen dusts Laura Mercier's Baked Eye Color (Ballet Pink) on the lid. Follow by sweeping Laura Mercier's Baked Eye Color (Terracotta) along the the lash line, pulling color upwards as your reach the outer corner. For the added pop, her chose to line Amy's upper lash line and outer corner of her lower lash line with Laura Mercier Caviar Eye Stick Color in Plum. Finish with dotting Laura Mercier Caviar Eye Stick Color in Sugar Frost in the corners of the eyes. 

Lashes -- Finally, apply Dior Diorshow Blackout Mascara to both upper and lower lashes. 

This fresh, bronze look perfectly complimented her dramatic red gown. Would you give this look a try? Let me know and tweet or instagram me a picture @AmnaAnn & I'll perhaps feature your take on this look! 

Get The Look - Kate Beckinsale at The 2014 Golden Globes


Celebrity: Kate Beckinsale
Hairstylist: Sascha Breuer
Products: Moroccan Oil 


To set off her beautifully intricate Zuhair Murad couture gown, Sascha took an edgier approach to Kate's otherwise romantic hairstyle. 

"With her wholesome, English rose good looks, Kate can get away with quite a bit of edginess in her hairstyle, so we went with a punk-inspired diva look that's a bit different from her usual soft flowing waves," says Sascha. 

Here's how to get this lovely look yourself: 

Tools -- Blow dryer, skeleton brush, elastic hair ties, bobby pins

Prep -- Start with damp hair and liberally spray Moroccan Oil's Root Boost directly on the roots of hair. Not only with this give phenomenal boy but will also provide a great base for manageable hair styling. 

Blow Out -- Using the skeleton brush, blow dry hair and use fingers to create texture and additional volume. Once dry, separate hair into a deep "U" shape (grabbing hair from temples and lifting up crown of hair). Once gathered, clip section neatly into a clip. 

Styling -- Using an elastic, pull remaining hair into a low side ponytail that sits on the nape of the neck. Coil and wrap the tail into a messy bun. Sascha suggests to pull delicate pieces of hair out of the bun to the give the illusion of hair naturally falling and loosens the bun. Make sure to secure with bobby pins. 

Top Styling -- Release the clipped section of hair and back comb at the roots. Moroccan Oil's Boar Bristle Teasing Brush expertly maximizes volume and provides an extra dimension of texure. 

Finishing Touches -- For added shined and manageable long-lasting hold, mist hair with Moroccan Oil Luminous Hairspray.  For more control application -- spritz product onto fingers tips and apply to where it's needed. Secure look with extra bobby pins for maximum hold and you're done. 

A beautiful look that doesn't require much work, Kate Beckinsale's stunning up-do is certainly worth a go. Will you try this look on yourself? Let me know and tweet or instagram me a picture @AmnaAnn & I'll perhaps feature your take on this look!
