I am attaching a link to Sylecaster.com, a site on which I have done makeup for a few of the models, as they have a bevy of gorgeous photos of hair and makeup looks from the Oscars! I always love more of an intense eye when you are dressed to kill, as the power of wearing a gown normally will drain the face, so you need more makeup to counteract that. This is something important for brides to remember. And an intense eye normally will be complemented by a softer lip tone, which is my favorite look.
I also absolutely love, love, love Carey Mulligan's short pixie hair, as I have always been a fan of really short hair. It is really a work of art to have your hair cut that short, and it shows off the face, and I always felt more feminine and sexy with really short hair. Especially when it's done on such a feminine woman and complemented by the makeup and clothing! Can you see how the lip color complements the little buttons on her Prada gown? Such fun!!! Now to just re-program more men, who seem to be wired to love the long locks. You have to be comfortable within your own beautiful skin, of course, and be confident with your own look. But if you have the urge to go short, discuss it with your stylist, and go for it. It's easy, quick and sassy! And short hair makes you stand out from all the others....Michelle Williams and Winona Ryder and Natalie Portman look gorgous in really short pixie hair cuts, as well as actresses in the past, i.e. Audrey Hepburn, Jean Seberg & Mia Farrow (who won Frank Sinatra's heart in a short pixie do...), as well as Twiggy in the 60's!
Check out the looks in the link below, and I look forward to writing more to you soon. It's been busy as always with school, and I am thinking of starting my own line of makeup and skincare for all you gorgeous women again, as I had a wonderful line at the end of the 90's....I want to be available to all of you out there for makeup & lessons as well as special event applications, as always, with something easy that you can do on an every day basis to enhance that beautiful face and protect it, keeping it young, plump and dewy looking!
