Jennifer Lopez at the 2011 Grammys
Can we talk about how hot Jennifer Lopez has been looking?? I loved her look at the Grammys last night. At age 41, she living proof that age ain’t nothin’ but a number.
Lady Gaga at the Grammys
The Transformation of Gaga at the Grammys
Makeup Artist genius, Billy B, was the mastermind behind Lady Gaga’s four different looks last night at the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards. She was killing it all night long! Check out her transformation as the night went on..
Look One: Red Carpet
Gaga’s red carpet look was a dark greenish gold smokey eye. Her bold, flawlessly filled in eyebrows shaped her face and her skin looked amazing. Gaga’s lipstick is Viva Glam Gaga, from her new MAC Campaign with Cyndi Lauper, “From Our Lips.”
.
Look Two: Performance
Gaga opened the Grammy’s by singing a duet with Elton John! She wore two upside-down pink rhinestone triangles around her eyes, and the same pink lipstick as her red carpet look. It doesn’t look like rinestones were attached to her skin individually, but rather the entire shape was fixated around her eyes. During the performance, she disappears and re-appears with covered in soot, sans triangles.
.
Look Three: Audience
Lady Gaga’s 3rd look is very similar to the one she wore while performing. The pink triangles are back around her eyes, but this time without eyebrows or rhinestones! These triangles definitely look painted on. Her eyes are rimmed with jet black liner and her lips are a darker, hot pink.
.
Look Four: Press Room
Gaga’s final look of the night was a simple, yet dramatic, black smokey eye and nude lip.
Red Carpet Trend: Colorful Eyeshadow!
A Look into the Colorful Makeup on the 52nd Annual Grammy’s Red Carpet
Unlike the Golden Globes and SAG Awards, the Grammys are an place where celebrities get a little more creative with their makeup! Bright colors were all over the red carpet yesterday, from eyes and lips, to Gaga’s yellow hair! It’s time to take a (short) trip down memory lane, into the best and worst colorful looks of the night.
Spanish singer-songwriter, Shaila Durcal, wore a vivid purple (looks like MUFE #92 eyeshadow?) smokey eye at the 52nd Annual Grammy Awards last night. She looks fabulous, and her makeup is gorgeous.
Katy Perry wore yellow and purple eyeshadow, a bright pink lip and a golden bindi on the red carpet. I’m all for bindis, but I think she should have kept her makeup more neutral for this look to work. The bright makeup looks a little bit garish with her nude dress.
Melody Thorton from The Pussycat Dolls kept her look pretty natural, with just a wash of mauve eyeshadow on her upper and lower lid, and glossy pink lips.
Purple was definitely the color of the night! Singer, Kaya Jones, matched her eyes to her dress, which to be honest, is a huge pet peeve of mine. This look would be pretty if there were a little bit less purple. The bright color travels all the way around her eye making them look more bruised than glamorous.
Hillary Scott did this colorful trend justice last night! With just a hint of teal shimmer on the inner corner of her eyes, her look is sexy and fun. She keeps her blush and lips neutral, letting her eyes take all the focus. A+
Just because it’s a trend, it doesn’t mean that everyone automatically executes it flawlessly, lol. “Tick-Tok” singer, Ke$ha, showed up with this blue, bronze and yellow glittery mess all over her eyes. Sorry girl, but this look is not working for you.
