Gwen Stefani at the 2010 MET Ball

Pantene Celebrity Stylist Danilo created Gwen Stefani’s hairdo for the 2010 MET Ball . According to Danilo: “Gwen’s dress was made from a gold, vintage thread fabric from the 30’s, and we wanted to honor the ethereal flow by creating a chic silhouette from head to toe. I created a dramatic, contemporary twist inspired by Grace Kelly and the Hitchcock film goddesses.” After washing her hair for a clean base, I applied the NEW Pantene Pro-V Color Nourishing Treatment , left it in for 5 minutes, and rinsed.

Mineral Makeup Review: Avon Smooth Mineral Eyeshadow

Reposted from sister blog Beautynomics I must admit that I only keep a small collection of eyeshadows. I don’t like collecting too much – I think I’m more obsessed with a flawless canvass, and recently, beautiful cheeks.

What Will You Do for the Academy Awards?

I must say, Oscar night is one night I miss living in LA. Half my friends were either reporting from it or going to it, and though I never did either, we always had some sort of shindig, with food and drinks and lots of turning on the TV early to ooh and hoot at the fashions.

Mineral Makeup Review: Avon Smooth Mineral Foundation

Nowadays, with every product having the word “natural”, “organic”, “preservative-free” being the entice-factor to every person’s shopping decision, mineral makeup is the choice for the health conscious women ( and men ) out there.

Miley Cyrus at the 2010 Grammys

Hair Tutorial:  Miley Cyrus’ sexy textured style at the 52nd Annual Grammys was a perfect rocker chic look that played off her Herve Leger mini bandage dress and emphasized her long, natural waves. “Miley has effortless style and taste,” said her stylist Scott Cunha , “and I always try to complement this by working with her natural hair texture, accentuating the waves and texture with a curling iron and a flat iron.” To create the look, Cunha first applied Moroccanoil Treatment on damp hair for silky shine, smoothness and to eliminate frizz.
