Worst of Oscar Beauty!

It's a pretty good sign, overall, that I had a Top 10 Best for Oscar beauty, and only four in the bad category. Here goes:Reese Witherspoon: Oh dear. Dark blue eyeshadow is one of my all-time favorites, but it can go wrong far too easily. It looks odd with Reese's eye color, it's too matchy-matchy with the dress, and the peach lip color just ruins the whole thing. Click on the pic to enlarge and

Best of Oscar Beauty!

OK, Oscar beauty roundup, FINALLY! Woo! In no particular order, here are my Top 10 Oscar Beauties. And of course, Worst of Oscar Beauty is coming up next.Freida Pinto - Just flawless. I don't think this is Freida's home planet, she seriously must be an alien from somewhere prettier. Nothin' else to say. Robin Wright Penn - She'll always be Princess Buttercup to me, and she always exudes this

Worst of Oscar Beauty

Since most everyone played it safe at this year's Academy Awards, major beauty missteps were few and far between. However, these five women still make my worst list for one reason or another. Only one really has to do with makeup, though. Of the others, one concerns posture, two concern hair, and one relates to behavior. Can you guess who's who?Let's start with Ellen Page. She's a cute girl and a

Best of Oscar Beauty

Standouts were few and far between on last night's Academy Awards red carpet. Most everyone played it safe, making for a rather boring evening (with the exception of Gary Busey's freakish attack on Jennifer Garner's neck!). Still, there were a few Oscar beauties who looked exceptionally lovely:Penelope Cruz gets my vote for Best in Beauty. She always gets it right...that smokey eye is so alluring

Oscar Beauty: The Winner!

Heidi Klum gets my vote for Best All Around at last night's Academy Awards. She killed it in that amazing red Galliano gown, and really went for it with the oversized bun.Best part? She told People, "I have snacks stored up here." Can't beat overall fabulosity and a sense of humor.Her makeup was flawless, as usual. Even her tan was fab. Perfection all around!Stay tuned for more Oscar coverage all

Get the Look: Eva Longoria Parker, Amanda Bynes and Ashley Tisdale at the 2008 SAG Awards

Loving the waves we saw all over the red carpet on Sunday night? Our friends at ghd have some tips for recreating these looks at home, no stylist necessary.I'll start by saying that I LOVE the ghd ultimate hairspray, which is recommended for finishing some of these looks. It holds my hair in place without dulling it or making it feel crunchy, and it smells great.The ghd IV styler is a styling

Get The Look: Ellen Pompeo's Soft, Sexy Updo

Loose, wavy styles with low-slung side knots were THE hairstyle to have at last night's SAG Awards, and Ellen Pompeo's look is a perfect example. I didn't love her grey Nina Ricci gown (my first thought was "garbage bags from outer space!"), but her hair and makeup were just gorgeous.Harry Josh, creative consultant for the John Frieda collection, used (what else) John Frieda products to make

Steal America Ferrera's SAG Awards Look

America Ferrera definitely makes my "best" list for last night's Screen Actors Guild Awards. Her grey Monique Lhuillier dress was just stunning, and I loved her makeup...subtle with just a touch of Old Hollywood.Celebrity makeup artist Vanessa Scali used Lancome products to dress up America's face for the event, and I've got the scoop on the inspiration (modern take on Hollywood glamour) and the

2007 Golden Globes: Back to the Makeup Chair for You!

Well, I guess not everyone can look good.Note to Tina Fey: when you have thin lips, the barely-there mouth route is not for you. Tina looks completely washed out here, and the matronly hair and inadequate blush don't help. There is also a cleavage problem which I will not discuss. She used to be the pretty one on SNL, and now she looks more like her costar Rachel Dratch (aka "Debbie Downer").It

Golden Globes Beauty: The Ladies of Lost

I guess seeing them sweaty and dirty on that island every week makes me forget how pretty they are.Emilie de Ravin is stunning. I love that hair color on her, and combined with the red lips it reminds me quite a bit of Michelle Williams' look at last years Oscars.Yunjin Kim, what a perfect study in black & white and neutrals. She pulls off a neutral face without looking washed out or muddy.

2007 Golden Globes: Best in Beauty

Sorry for the slightly grainy quality of the photos, but Blogger no longer wants to let me upload pictures so I have had to resort to other methods. You can always check out more photos on Getty.Jennifer Hudson. I was so happy that she won. That deep burgundy lipstick on Jennifer is stunning, and she's also rocking pink-gold eyeshadow with "cat" liquid liner. Perfect.Helen Mirren. I want to look
Golden Globes beauty coverage coming up.For now: Hilary Swank's gorgeous hair ornament. I am still looking for a close-up of this and will post it when I find one. 53 carats of diamonds, people!

Red Carpet Beauty: Carousel of Hope Ball

I am all about the silly celebrity makeup here, but I like the good red carpet looks just as much. Here, some winners from the Mercedes-Benz Carousel of Hope Ball in Los Angeles this weekend - and surprisingly, all of these ladies usually end up on my other list.Haylie Duff. The Other Duff Sister, yes! Love the neutral brown eye makeup, pink lips, and matte skin, which is of course very now.Teri

Gorgeous Makeup at the Emmys

...And we're back! Beauty Addict has been "sort of" on vacation this week, but due to poor weather conditions, we're cooped up in the house and ready to report the best and the worst from the Emmys. Here's the best of the best. What do you think? Evangeline Lilly. Who is styling her? Before Lost, no one even knew who she was, and now she's a permanent fixture on red carpet best-dressed lists. She

More Silly Celebrity Makeup at the Oscars

Sharon, Sharon, Sharon. What have you done? Here we have Sharon Stone sporting the popular "Burnt Barbie Doll" look, complete with butterfly appliques on her shoulder, at a post-Oscar party.This is by far the fugliest of the fug.She looks like a trailer park mom on crystal meth and too much PBR in a can, who decided that digging out her old prom dress would be a brilliant idea.I predict that very

Gorgeous Makeup at the Oscars

Now that we've looked at the silly and the hideous, let's move on to the beautiful! Lots of the celebs on the red carpet looked great, but there were a few whose makeup and/or hair really stood out:Felicity Huffman. No mistaking that the Transamerica star is all woman here! The makeup is classic and gorgeous, as is the hair. Felicity looks happy, glowing, and young. I loved the top of her Zac

The Well Heeled Nominee

Here we have the foot of Kathleen York, Oscar nominee for Best Song ("In The Deep," from Crash). The shoes set my heart a-flutter. Custom made by Stuart Weitzman and adorned with jewels from Rita Hayworth's estate, they are valued at a whopping US $3 million.How glamorous!Although, I think I would be slightly fearful that I might scuff them, so if I were Kathleen, I would have been carried
