Cameron Diaz: An Introduction to Self Tanner and Bronzers.

I think that Cameron Diaz is absolutely darling. And she looked beautiful at the Academy Awards last night - with one exception. Her tan lines! Someone needs to tell Cameron about the wonders of self-tanners and bronzers.

With so many bronzers, temporary tanners and long-lasting self-tanners, there was just no excuse for this fashion faux paus. 

 

Some easy remedies to blend in tan lines:
Bronzers
Guerlain Terracotta Bronzer - $42
Tarte Mineral Powder Bronzer - $28
CARGO Bronzer - $25

Instant/Temporary Tanners

Sephora Super Sheen Bronzing Mist - $12

Self-Tanners

At long last Cameron blend, blend, and blend some more!  Those tan lines can really be blended away in very little time.

How To: Jennifer Garner's Hair.

Her hair! My favorite Oscar look of the night as I previous said was Jennifer Garner.

I think her hair pulled her entire look all together last night at the Academy Awards. Frederic Fekkai's Adir Abergel styled her lovely locks and I have all the details right here.

To get the look, Adir started by applying from root to ends, Fekkai Coiff Shape and Set Mist.

Adir then parted hair for a severe side part, hiding all of Jen’s short bangs. He blow-dried small sections of the hair with a round brush and pinned each section back. Next, he set the hair for about 10 minutes, and took a 1" curling iron and curled her entire head.

To finish, Adir then sprayed some Sheer Hold Hairspray by Fekkai and pinned all of Jennifer's hair back into a low deconstructed bun. He also made sure to leave the severe side bang and a few random pieces out to frame her face.

Frederic Fekkai products used:
Coiff Shape and Set Mist - $25 at Sephora.com
Sheer Hold Hairspray - $23 for 5.8 oz. or $35 for 11.6 oz. at Sephora.com

My Favorite Overall Oscar Look!

The show has yet to begin, but in watching the pre-shows and quickly going through all of the still photos, one beautiful gal stands out. My favorite overall Oscar look:

 

Jennifer Garner looks stunning. From her gown and jewels to her beautiful hair and makeup. Rachel Zoe certainly did Jennifer well for the evening.

I lover her natural makeup look. Fresh and glowing peach/pink cheeks, nude but pearly lips, and her soft smoky eye done in brown. And the flick of the eyeliner at the outer edge of her eye - genius.

 

Jennifer has come such a long way since that ass-kicking spy on Alias to one of our most popular and favorite movie actresses. She even has an Academy Award winning husband to boot!

Stay tuned for more makeup and hair looks from the red carpet and the show.
