Turbow said, “I love Vera’s porcelain complexion, so I wanted to keep it simple with a sheer foundation and lightweight mineral powder.”

She used:

* tarte’s smooth operator tinted moisturizer SPF 20 in façade
* tarte’s provocateur mineral pressed powder SPF 8 in fair
* For the cheeks she provided “just a pop of pink made for a healthy blush.”

* Tina Turnbow for tarte’s flower child natural cheek stain (new for spring 2010)
* Tina Turnbow for tarte’s flower child eyeshadow palette: pink peony shadow used as a highlighter
on top of cheekbones
* Eyes: “I used warm coppery-bronze tones to enhance Vera’s beautiful blue eyes.”

* Lips: “I felt a sweet pink pout really complimented her look.”

* a combination of: tarte’s natural gel lip stain in charmed and vitamin infused lipstick in bikram

Tina set the look with Arcona’s Lavender Hydrasol for a natural glow.

James Vincent, Director of Artistry of The Powder Group and The Makeup Show says, “Celebrities seek out professional stylists to keep it safe and to avoid seeing themselves in the worst dressed section of the tabloids, but the lack of risk taking has made makeup seem almost mundane.”

We agree with James that the red carpet was not a blockbuster spectacle this year. “Makeup artists have had to work harder to find colors, textures and applications that seem soft and natural and still stand out, separate their client from the pretty pack, and stand up to the scrutiny of the camera, the carpet, and media critique,” he adds.

Fan favorites like Penelope Cruz, Julia Roberts and Sandra Bullock make more natural makeup look modern with their use of blush and bronzer to bring a glow to the cheeks. Kate Hudson and Marion Cottilard were two exquisite examples of the natural look whose sixties inspired nude, camel colored lips were made seductively sexy when paired with a soft, subdued smokey eye.

The red lip was the scene stealer of the night with the regular red-carpet risk takers like Cameron Diaz and Maggie Gyllenhal making the scarlet lip a staple for fashion forward women and January Jones and Jennifer Morrison made the red lip look luscious and exciting.

“My favorite feature of the night was the comeback of the coral lip. Chloe Sevigny, Rose Byrne and Kate Winslet wore soft, creamy corals and created lip looks that were natural enough for everyday and at the same time both elegant and unexpectedly showing women that natural need not necessarily be boring.”

James Vincent will also be in Los Angeles on February 28 & March 1 for The Makeup Show LA.

In his words: “My inspiration for Carey’s look for the Golden Globes was pure English Rose! I wanted to keep the skin luminous and cool with a sweet pink cheek, the eyes soft yet defined with gray metallic shadows, and the lips a ‘just bitten’ berry stain.”

He mixed ½ a drop of rose and mint oils into Lip Conditioner with a drop of PRO Lipmix in Crimson, PRO Lipmix in Burgundy and a ¼ drop of PRO Lipmix in Black to create the perfect berry stain. To get the look at home you can use Tinted Lip Conditioner SPF 15 in Plum Perfect.

Adir’s inspiration for Sandra was a modernized 1930′s look with deep waves and interesting lines.

Abergel started the look by parting the hair on an angle. He then blow-dried the hair adding Fekkai Coiff^TM Perfecteur Anti-Frizz Silkening Crème for a completely smooth, frizz-free texture, which was actually a great move considering the weather of the Globes. We love this creme ourselves and use it religiously, especially on bad hair days.

Then, using a one inch curling iron he curled the hair away from the face. Next, he created a foundation for the do by backcombing the bottom layers of the hair and tucking the hair under with pins.

Then, Abergel just used a small amount of the Fekkai Coiff Nonchalant Piecing & Forming Wax to individual hair pieces to separate the strands while adding individuality and shine.

Then Abergel then tucked the hair under creating an asymmetrical bob- with a modern twist. To finish the look, Abergel pinned the first part of the hair tightly, let a few pieces hang and pinned the rest back very loosely. Finally, he secured the look by adding FEKKAI COIFF^TM Sheer Hold Hairspray.

We love her perfect pairing (both hair, minimalist makeup and dress). What are your thoughts?

Her white dress was a fresh color of relief from the sea of lilacs and lavenders that we saw on the red carpet.

And since she’s engaged to John Krasinski, it’s apt that she does look romantic.

Emily Blunt’s hair was stylied with NO FRIZZ that contains the new anti-frizz molecule created by MIT scientists. It doesn’t leave hair looking wet or greasy.

Stylist Laini Reeves cut Blunt’s hair to shoulder length just for the Golden Globes and then created a curl that was blunt and chic, but definitely edgy and chic. She applied the NO FRIZZ, WAVE SHAPING CREAM FOR MEDIUM TO THICK HAIR ($24) to Emily’s wet hair to prevent the hair from frizzing. She then added a bit of the new LIVING PROOF FULL ($24) to add a hint of body to the wave.

She started creating the pin curls by taking half inch pieces of hair and wrapping each piece around her fingers and then pinning them to the top of the head. Reeves recommends alternating the twisting monition both clockwise and counter clockwise to add dimension. She then let the hair dry naturally. After the hair was completely dry she used both a medium curling iron, and small barrel curling iron to accentuate the curl. To add a bit of sophistication to the look, she used a flat iron on each curl, straightening the bottom inch of the hair.

LIVING PROOF NO FRIZZ WAVE SHAPING CREAM: $24 for 4.8 oz cream, LIVING PROOF FULL: $24 for 3.7oz, LIVING PROOF NO FRIZZ STRAIGHT MAKING SPRAY : $24 for 3.4 oz spray. Sephora stores or Livingproof.com

Can you tell that I absolutely adore her style?

She’s also wearing ruffles, one of the key trends of the evening. This peachy/ pale amber colored gown by Christian Siriano shows her puppies off a little more than I would like, but her electric russet colored hair and strawberry colored lips beautifully offset her dress.
