Who's make-up sizzled and who's fizzled on the red carpet?


Blue is the new black - with Nicole Ritchie, Mariah Carey & Maggie Gyllenhall to name a few - all wearing deep blue gowns – those in know (Michelle Tuzee) paired it with a smoky blue eye for double pizzazz! But who cares about the gowns – this is a beauty blog, so lets get down to the real nitty gritty!

Whose make-up & hair was blah blah bland & who nailed it in the beauty department and sizzled their way down the red carpet!

In this season’s true beauty fashionista form:

Bright lips:

Vera Farmiga (Up In The Air)

Sandra Bullock (Blind Side)

Maggie Gyllenhaal (Crazy Heart)

Cameron Diaz

Deep toned short nails:

Amanda Seyfried

Miley Cyrus

These ladies kept it current and added a dash of glamour – FANTASTIC!

Sizzled:

Zoe Saldana (Avatar) Vava voom – hair swept up in an understated loose bun and cats eyes with extra long lashes paired with a nude lip – you nailed it girl!

Vera Farmiga (Up In The Air) loose chignon pink lips – simply stunning!

Amanda Seyfried Smoky gunmetal eyes and matching toned short nails makes her look a winner – fresh, young and not too serious – shame about the militant slicked down hair, get a new hairdresser next year girlfriend.

Fizzled:

Carey Mulligan (An Education) – great haircut cut - BADLY STYLED! Desperately needed a young hip color on the nails to pull her look together.

Anna Kendrick (Up In The Air) so young and so (yawning as I write this) BORING!

Mo'nique (Precious) mono–tone make-up (where’s the color girl) could have carried off a stronger lip color to bring vibrancy and make her really sparkle.

Mariah Carey (Precious) pretty in pink & pretty stuck in a make-up rut!

Off the beaten track:

Sarah Jessica parker smoky eyes with a hint of sparkles and yellow that looked great against the yellow gown – nude lips – no fashionista in the beauty department but fantastic non-the less –we love it!
