Part of Kate Beckinsale’s signature style is her long, dark locks. But there’s something about her hair’s fall highlight and lowlight coloring that made me drool just a little. At the crown of her head her hair is still quite dark, and her layers allow those darker strands to fall just at eye level. But as you look down to her shoulders you notice her hair takes on a beautiful lighter shade that accentuates her jaw line and brightens her face from below. The effect is pretty and very simple and yet it makes her look younger and more vibrant almost instantly.

It happens once a year. Gorgeous model after gorgeous model, strutting her stuff down the runway wearing wings. We could only be talking about the Victoria’s Secret fashion show. And we’re here to bring you the beauty breakdown from this year’s extravaganza!Makeup artist Tom Pecheux gave models a rosy glow with a combination of VS Baked Mineral Bronzing Powder in Glitterati and VS Luminous Mineral Blush Duo in Starlet. Models got an angelic glow with VS Brilliant Shimmer Shadow in Gold Dust on the temples and cheekbones. Pecheux gave the models ultra-flirty eyes with VS Precision Liquid Liner in Blackest Black, running it along the upper lashline out past the outer corner for a slight upward cat-eye wing. Soft and pouty lips were topped with VS Lip Gloss in Sublime or VS Sparkling Lip Gloss in Delight.
Hairstylist Orlando Pita gave the models a tousled, glamorous look this year. He set hair with curls going outward and then amped up the volume with So Sexy Style Clean & Go Dry Shampoo. For healthy shine, he spritzed So Sexy Style Brilliant & Glossy Shine Mist onto the models’ locks.

I’ve used the same mascara (Cover Girl Lash Blast Lengthening Mascara) for a couple years. And every time I try a new formula, I’m reminded why I shouldn’t stray. But if you follow beauty at all, then you know that Maybelline’s Great Lash Mascara is a top rated formula, even amongst its pricier competition. But it was the latest Great Lash Formula, named Lots of Lashes, that caught my attention and made me purchase a tube. With a tiny brush head and the perfect little “grabber” bristles, it coats lashes in great color and makes my eyes pop beautifully! I don’t think I’ll be going back to old faithful anytime soon.Get Maybelline Great Lash Lots of Lashes Mascara for $4.99 from Ulta.com.
