Get The Golden Globe Look – Belle Belle’s Top Five

Katherine McPhee at the Golden Globes // Belle Belle BeautyKatharine McPhee went the daring route with a plunging neckline and classic black. The twitterverse was split on the dress, but you can’t deny that Katherine looks beautiful. Artist Jake Bailey adds “Katharine’s dress looks like it belongs in a Helmut Newton photograph, so I thought the makeup should be strong and sultry…the kind of eye makeup that would be in one of those photographs. It’s an eye look for sure – a smoky eye with a beautiful nude skin palette.” All makeup used was NARS.

Salma Hayek at the Golden Globes // Belle Belle BeautyCelebrity makeup artist, Jeannia Robinette, was inspired by Salma Hayek’s midnight blue dress and balanced the glamourous dress with youthful and fresh makeup. “The eyes are very luminescent – we lightened them up with coppers and silvery peach, then gave them depth with eggplant and plum. With a bright lip, the look was trendy, young, and modern.” All makeup used was NARS.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley at the Golden Globes // Belle Belle Beauty

Celebrity Makeup Artist Fiona Stiles went for modern Hollywood Glamour for Rosie Huntington-Whiteley’s look. I like that it is slightly more bold than my other picks. That pink lip is one of my favorites of the night.

FACE:

”I dusted Burberry’s Warm Glow Summer Glow no.4 Bronzer on Rosie’s cheekbones and forehead for a healthy, fresh glow. Rosie is so incredibly gorgeous and a bit of sun-kissed glow really suits her.”

EYES:

“I kept Rosie’s eyes very simple; a soft wash of neutral color and a bit of definition in the socket. I elongated the eye with a brown pencil, and softened the line with mark I-Mark Wet/Dry Eye Shadow in Tabac. I love using brown because it’s so sexy but maintains a soft look. Next, I applied two coats of mark Lash All You Want High-Volume Mascara in Black to Rosie’s top lashes and one coat of mark Lash All You Want High-Volume Mascarain Brown/Black to her bottom lashes. I groomed her brows using Anastasia Brow Wiz in Medium Ash, lightly sculpting them with pencil to create the perfect frame for her face.”

LIPS:

“I applied mark Lipclick Full Color Lipstick in Cha Cha for a gorgeous Hollywood finish. A red lip creams glamour, but I matted down the finish and made the edges soft and undefined, patting it on with my finger for a less overpowering look.”

Kate Hudson at the Golden Globes // Belle Belle Beauty

And my award for best hair goes to Kate Hudson – soft, shiny but full and smooth hair. Celebrity hairstylist, David Babaii remarks “Kate is my generation’s Brigitte Bardot showing off soft voluptuous hair that is touchable, glamorous and now Kate’s very own signature look.” note: IT&LY is found in salons.

  • David started with IT&LY’s Pure Water Drops Serum before blow drying.
  • Next, he added IT&LY’s Pure Style Mousse Strong and used a medium round brush at the root area to add volume then switching to a large round brush to smooth and create soft rounded edges.
  • After drying, David created a natural side part spritzing IT&LY’s Pure Volumizing Eco at the base for added lift and down the shaft for more piecey definition.
  • For her sexy fringe he wrapped the bang area around a medium round brush spraying a small amount of IT&LY’s Pure Volumizing Eco again. With the blow dryer temperature on high, he directed heat on the brush followed by a quick blast of cool air to set. Gently he removed the brush to release the fringe.
  • With his fingers he combed through and allowed the hair to fall naturally into place.
  • To finish, he misted the hair with IT&LY Pure Definition Hair Spray for soft touchable hair with memory hold.

Burberry Body Eau de Parfum and Body Milk // Belle Belle Beauty

For the past week, I have been test-driving Burberry Body.  After playing around with unconventional grassy and herbal scents, I wanted to try something uber-feminine. Burberry body is incredibly sensual and exotic.  Luxe notes include green absinthe, illuminating peach and delicate freesia. Those are warmed up with rose absolute, iris and warm sandalwood. And, of course, I am drawn to the cozy base notes of woody cashmeran, creamy vanilla, amber and musk.

Burberry Body and Burberry Shearling // Belle Belle Beauty

The feel of the fragrance, even with those exotic notes, is classic just like the Burberry brand. I started reaching for my 10 year old Burberry shearling coat just to celebrate my perfume over the past couple evenings. The chilly weather and cozy base notes only make my fur coverlet more appealing. And the luxurious scent is complemented by only the most treasured pieces in my makeup collection.

Burberry Body Eau de Parfum and Luxe Makeup // Belle Belle Beauty

I love the addition of Body Milk to the collection. The consistency is easily absorbed and almost like a dry oil in feel. This spray on moisturizer adds depth and staying power to your scent. And my skin definitely can’t hurt from the added hydration this time of year.

Burberry Body Eau de Parfum on my Faux Fur Throw // Belle Belle Beauty Burberry Body is available at Macy’s (here).
