Get Newsroom’s Olivia Munn’s Headlining Hairstyle

30.7.12

 

Celebrity hairstylist Louise O’Connor of OC61 Salon reveals how he got Munn’s look for her recent appearance on LIVE! With Kelly. Using  black 15in1 Miracle Hair Treatment ($20.00/3.3 oz ) to create her sexy, tousled curls, O’Conner reveals how he created the look, ”I sprayed Olivia’s hair from roots to ends with black 15in1 Miracle Hair Treatment to bring out the natural health and shine of her hair,” said Louise O’Connor. “I then used a curling iron to achieve the glossy, tousled ends she loves.”

Video Tutorial: How-to Apply False Lashes

27.7.12

I want to let you in on a little secret! When you see celebrities walking down the red carpet and think ‘ugh, I wish I had lashes like that’. Well, they don’t even have lashes like that!

I would be willing to bet that over 95% of the women we see on red carpets are getting a little help in the lashes department!

Now, you can follow our step-by-step and learn how to easily apply strip lashes in no time flat. I know, it’s a little overwhelming if you have never done it before, but with a few tricks of the trade, it can be done simply.

 

In this tutorial I use:

False lashes can add an ‘oomph’ to your look that no amount of eyeliner or mascara can, so don’t be afraid! Set some time aside and practice practice practice. Also, it is 100% normal to ‘feel’ the lashes for the first 15-20 minutes you wear them, but it should not hurt and that feeling should go away. This is just your eyes adjusting to the weight of the lashes.

This segment will be a weekly recurrence and each week I will discuss different products and why they made the list. This not only keeps you up to date on some new and well loved products, but gives us ‘fuel to the fire’ to find the latest and greatest products as well!

 

In this first video I discuss:

  • Foundation: Make Up For Ever Face and Body Foundation ($40 at Sephora.com)- why I have chosen it for summer.
  • Lip Color: Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Tar in color NSFW ($14.50 at OCCmakeup.com)- some pros and cons to using the Lip Tars.
