The CelebLook Best Dressed of the Week…

The award goes to, Eva Longoria Parker. We don’t need to say more about Eva here either. She looks ravishing. The gown, the ruffles, the layers, the color - it all works for Eva - as only it could on her.

Madonna’s Makeup - Step by Step.

Madonna - you’ve got four minutes to save the world. We love Madonna and this 50 year old chick looks and acts 30. Her video with Justin Timberlake - hot!!!

Her makeup is fabulous, and we have the step by step routine down for you here.  The Artistic Director for Shu Uemura and Madonna make up artist Gina Brooke broke it down for us.

Here’s how Gina designed the look using shu uemura products:

1. Prepare the face
Begin with prepping the eyes with the MOISTURE EYE ZONE MASK. This will not only calm puffiness but it will give your eyes the ultimate hydration. Then apply PHYTO BLACK LIFT FIRMING CREAM on the whole face – it’s an amazing moisturizer and also reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Lastly,
apply FACE ARCHITECT SMOOTHING FLUID FOUNDATION beginning at the arch of your brow down to the middle of your eye, directly onto the middle of the cheekbone. Each time the sun reflects off your skin, it will create the illusion of glowing, dewy, healthy, radiant skin!

2. Prime the eyelids
Using a KOLINSKY BRUSH 11, apply PRESSED EYE SHADOW in M BEIGE 800 above the eyelids. Then, use COVER CRAYON in 9YR LIGHT in the inner corner and water line of the eyes to make them appear larger. Using the DRAWING PENCIL in BLACK, begin at the inner corners extending the line out all the
way to the end of the eyebrow.

3. Prep the lashes
Use the EYELASH CURLER before applying BASIC BLACK MASCARA beginning at the base and rolling the brush through the tips of lashes. Apply SOFT CROSS LASHES to draw attention and enhance the shape of the eye.

4. Finish off with the lips
Since the focus is on the eyes, use ROUGE UNLIMITED CRYSTAL SHINE in PK 301S layered with GLOSS UNLIMITED in BG 930N for a soft, natural look.

Gorgeous!

Now, go get your celeb look on.

The Men at the MET.

Okay, so we looked at some of the lovely ladies in attendance at the Metropolitan Museum’s Costume Institute Gala (and we have more upcoming), but it is time to take a look at the men in attendance.

Who cares what they are wearing, we just like to look. ;)

Let’s see… there was George Clooney, Tom Cruise, Chace Crawford and John Mayer, amongst our faves.

Black and white never goes out of style. It is pretty timeless. Emmy Rossum is rocking the black and white gown and we love this look on her.

Kate Moss Looking Stunning!

We never really look to Kate Moss for looking gorgeous and glam, especially in a gown. But she got it right in this beauty of a dress.

We found a similar style dress that can have you looking like Kate. It is a David Meister Beaded Dress - for $590 - available at Neiman Macus. But if it had you looking half this good, wouldn’t it be well worth it?

Now, go get your celeb look on.

Get Her Look: Katie Holmes in a Red Gown.

Well, the color red certainly looks great on Katie Holmes, don’t you agree? We cannot figure out what statement she was trying to make with the bright blue shoes, though.

katie_holmes_nc

Back to the dress. A strapless red gown will definitely say you are the belle of the ball, and we have a few choices for you to get a look similar to Katie’s.

First there is the Ruched Fitted Strapless Dresses by Mori Lee available at eDressMe for $278. Next there is this JS Boutique Strapless Ruched Satin Gown available at Nordstrom for $98. Both are reasonably priced, but will still have you ravishing in red.

Now, go get your celeb look on!

Yay or Nay: Heidi Montag as Barbie?

Hmmm. We don’t know. But we are thinking that Heidi Montag is trying to channel Barbie with this hair, makeup, and overall look.

heidi_montag_nc

We don’t like it. She looks too skinny and the big hair and lashes just do not do her justice.

What do you think - Do you like Heidi’s look as Barbie? Yay or Nay? Let us know in the comments.
