Beyond Beauty Basics — Tue, 01 Feb 2011 04:40:52 +0000

Mila Kunis led the bold red trend at the SAGs in this batik Alexander McQueen gown with a matching flowing wavy hairstyle. We love the train, and the fierce snake cuff the actress wore to further complement her fiery dress. Mila, if you’re reading this, can we hang out?

To say it’s been a whirlwind year for Sandra Bullock would be an understatement. She won an Oscar, made out with Meryl Streep, got divorced and adopted a child in less time than it takes most of us to file our taxes.

Since her divorce, Sandy’s been keeping an understandably low profile. We’ve missed her on the red carpet, so it was great to see her out in such fine form at last night’s Golden Globes.

In honor of her red carpet rebirth, Sandra rocked a brand new look: blunt bangs. The bold, brow-grazing fringe is a big trend, not only at the Globes, but for Spring 2011 as well.

Have a Jersey Halloween!

Jersey Shore

There’s a Snooki-themed costume on the market, but it’s much more fun to recreate her signature pouf on your own. To really cement the look, wear bedazzled sunglasses and carry a jar of pickles all night. Not into Snooks? Here are four more Jersey-themed Halloween looks to try on.

Kylie Minogue turns down Botox for Pond’s Cold Cream

Paul Baranda — Tue, 25 May 2010 20:30:43 +0000

Moms know best and Kylie Minogue is listening to her “mum’s” advice when it comes to beauty. The 40-yr old Australian pop star is giving up on Botox and instead using Pond’s Cold Cream. Pond’s has been around since 1846 as the trusted beauty brand of women for several generations and certainly the choice of celebrities to keep their skin beautiful. In an exclusive interview with the UK’s News of the World, Kylie dishes her method of aging gracefully. “It’s such an old classic [Pond’s]. My mum uses it. I wanted to see what all the fuss was about and it really does work. It’s made such a difference.”

This classic rich cream deep cleans to remove make-up and impurities and leaves your skin soft and smooth. Pond’s Cold Cream gently cleans without stripping or drying while adding essential moisture to dry skin. Wow, it not only works as an alternative to Botox according to Kylie, but you’ll be able to save yourself some serious cash to splurge on some much needed vacations!

$5 jar of Pond’s Cold Cream or $700 Botox treatment… what would you choose?

Our Oscar Style Pick: Sandra Bullock

Jennifer Long-Levy — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 05:01:41 +0000

Sandra Bullock is Hollywood’s girl next door, but her style says otherwise! She’s one of my favorites – and not just because everyone says I look like her! Sandy arrived at the Oscars in a shimmering gold beaded gown by Marchesa with a sexy slit that maximized her curves and showed off her slim figure (You have to be in seriously good shape for this one!).

Here to celebrate her role in the “The Blind Side,” our girl next door also attended the Razzies the night before the Oscars to collect her award for Worst Actress of 2009 for her role in the romantic “All About Steve,” in which she starred with Bradley Cooper. We love that she wasn’t too proud to accept a Razzie!

I loved her sleek, polished hair and her bright pink lipstick – right on Spring trend! For a similar bright pink shade, try MAC Lipstick in Lustering.

Favorite SAG Awards Look: Kyra Sedgwick in Vera Wang

Jennifer Long-Levy — Mon, 25 Jan 2010 05:39:44 +0000

The SAG Awards were this past Saturday, and once again, I found myself more interested in the red carpet coverage than the actual awards (although I LOVE Sandra Bullock and was so happy she won!).

I can’t help but imagine myself in the red carpet dresses. What I love so much about Kyra’s look is that it’s suitable for many age groups. The strapless neckline is very flattering and the brooch and sheer gray sash detail keep it from looking too much like a wedding gown. So what do you think – love it or hate it?

Love It Or Hate It: Kate’s New ‘Do

Jennifer Long-Levy — Fri, 15 Jan 2010 02:31:45 +0000

Last week, Kate Gosselin unveiled a completely new look, courtesy of celebrity stylist Ted Gibson (whom we love!). When you’re a mom, it’s hard to find time to wash your hair – much less sit for approximately 20 hours to get extensions!

I think the former TLC star deserved the change. A certain someone else is running around town with all different ladies – so why not let Kate look super hot? I wasn’t a huge fan of the reverse-mullet situation she had going on before.

Referring to Kate’s new ‘do as “Clean Slate Kate,” Ted Gibson said her new look would run someone about $7,000! That’s $950 for a haircut, $500 for her updated blonde locks, and $5000 for those much needed extensions!

Check out Ted Gibson’s website to find out how to get Kate’s new look – and let us know what YOU think!
