So what did you think about the Oscars? I loved it. I usually find the show a bit dull, but there were so many uplifting moments this year. Gaby Sidibe's Cinderella story. Kathryn Bigelow's big win. Sandra Bullock's first statue. And for the most part, everyone looked gorgeous. Our friends at More Magazine and Fab Over 40 must have loved how great the 40+ crowd looked. Demi Moore, Tina Fey, Helen Mirren, Oprah, Michelle Pfeiffer, Meryl Streep, Kathryn Bigelow. They all looked amazing.
The younger set represented too. Zoe Saldana and Carey Mulligan looked so gorgeous and gamine-like when they presented together. I liked Zoe's daring dress choice (Givenchy), although some of you probably disagree.
Do you have a favorite for the night? My faves were Zoe and Maggie Gyllenhaal, whom I adore. I admire her fashion choices and her willingness to look like an individual on the red carpet. I never thought I'd see Dries Van Noten at the Oscars, but there it was!
If you follow the blogs, you probably know that we did the makeup for Kate Winslet (of course) and Demi Moore (gorgeous). Funnily enough, both wore L'Absolu Rouge lipstick in Rich Cashmere. (Demi's was topped with Juicy Tubes in Spring Fling, which Angelina wore to last year's Academy Awards!)I don't know what's up with that shade, but it's become our No. 1 makeup artist fave. Kate also wore it to the Golden Globes, Julia Roberts wore it to the "Duplicity" premiere last year and the models at Victoria Beckham and L'Wren Scott's shows last month wore it. And on and on. As for lashes, I think both wore Hypnose Drama mascara, which is getting an insane amount of blog lovin'. I'm still obsessed with Ôscillation, but I'm thinking about making the switch.
Tomorrow, Lancôme in L.A., Part Two. Or, How I Met My New Hollywood Crushes, Gerard Butler and Jon Hamm. (Sorry, Clive.)
And guess what else is tomorrow? The blog's birthday!!! We'll definitely have to do a giveaway.
Talk to you soon...
