While everyone was oohing and ahhing over Sandra’s super-shiny hair at the Oscars, we were busy obsessing over J Lo’s perfect eyebrows! Yes, there are many salons that can shape similar brows, but remember the recession?! Not everyone can afford a trip to the brow Dr every month. The best advice is to lighten your brows a shade with dye, but it isn’t safe to recommend any at home kits, because the trick is to know how light to go. Worst case scenario you end up with no eyebrows, or disproportionate eyebrows…it can get scary. Second to dye, brow shaping kits are a must-have and the best way to perfect your arch.
And the nominees for best eyebrow shaping kits are:
1. Tweezerman Mini Brow Kit, Sephora $25 2. Cle de Peau Beaute Eyebrow and Eyeliner Compact, Neiman Marcus $70 3. Too Faced Brow Envy Shaping and Defining Kit, Sephora $35 4. Benefit Cosmetics Brow Zings, Benefit Cosmetics $30 5. Anastasia All About Brows Kit, Sephora $75 6. Sephora Collection Arch it Brow Kit, Sephora $35

Our penchant for eyeshadow primers aside (we’re seriously addicted), Benefit Cosmetics’ new 
Diane Kruger was lovely in a pulled back, twisted hair style, gilded eyes, and a pale pink lip , leaving the drama to her AMAZING Chanel gown.
As usual, Kate Winslet knocked it out of the park with sleek, Veronica Lake inspired finger waves, and fresh pinks on the face to compliment her blue eyes and golden tresses.
Mo’nique decorated her coif with gardenias befitting an Oscar winner, and matched the sweet look with a flawless, matte face and glossy lips.
Elizabeth banks dazzled with bold lined eyes, a pale lip, and added a sparkly headband to her sophisticated hair style for a extra dose of glam.
Miley Cyrus brought the drama with smokey eyes, LOTS of lash, a pretty pale pout, and a gorgeous, loose wave updo that was one of our faves of the evening.
Charlize Theron’s bright red lip and natural eye made a powerful statement without overpowering the actresses’ knockout face.
Cameron Diaz rocked a muted version of Charlize’s lip, but looked totally different and fresh. Loose, windblown waves were in tune with Cam’s Cali-girl style— effortless, pretty, and natural.
Vera Farmiga’s silvery-purple eye was young and fresh, and the bold pink lip complimented her dress without competing with it, topped with a perfectly tousled a chignon.
Lastly, Jennifer Lopez ALWAYS gives good face. Perfectly groomed brows, flawless blending, and the look was balanced by her organic, loose updo.
Phoenix House, which is a residential substance abuse treatment program, will run the Career
Academy. The academy will serve to help
men and women in treatment to prepare for careers in the cosmetology
field after a seven-month training course, while overcoming their drug addictions. L’Oreal has donated all the products to be used at the center, and
Beyoncé, along with her mother, have pledged to donate
$100,000 annually.
