Red carpet beauty scoop: get the look of Christina Applegate at the 2009 Emmy awards. Christina ‘s look was created by Makeup Artist: Joanna Schlip for Clarins.

The Makeup Look: Joanna was inspired by Christina’s dramatic, sweeping gown by Basil Soda when creating her makeup look. The vintage glamour of the navy stunner called for simple makeup that still made a statement. With her hair pulled back in a chic chignon, Joanna was able to play up Christina’s eyes with a sexy retro smolder, while keeping her skin fresh and lips softly pink. Like the dress, Christina’s makeup exuded a Brigitte Bardot 60’s cool, with a modern twist.

Skincare: To create a radiant glow, Joanna prepped Christina’s skin with three steps: First she cleansed with Clarins Water Comfort One Step Cleanser. She then applied Clarins Multi-Active Day moisturizer, followed with Clarins Beauty Flash Balm for smooth, hydrated, radiant skin.

Face: Since Christina has naturally beautiful skin, Joanna kept her face mostly bare with a light wash of Clarins True Radiance Foundation. She fished with a dusting of Clarins Loose Powder in Translucent.

Cheeks: For a natural but luminous flush, Joanna applied Clarins Instant Sun Light Shimmer Palette on the apples of her cheeks, sweeping up to the hairline. The shimmering highlighter reflected the California sunlight on the red carpet, giving a healthy, peachy-pink glow.

Eyes: Joanna reflected the drama of Christina’s dress with a smoldering eye. Using the dark gray shade from Clarins Colour Quartet for Eyes in So Chic, Joanna gave a smokey depth to Christina’s green eyes. To add definition and drama, she applied Clarins Eye Pencil in Black around the upper and lower lash line and inside the wet line, then finished with three coats of Clarins Wonder Perfect Mascara in Black.

Lips: For a soft, modern pink mouth, Joanna applied Clarins Lip Definer in Bay Rose, and then added a hint of gloss with Clarins Colour Quench Lip Balm in Rose Pink.

Introducing Giorgio Armani Beauty’s latest addition to the Dress Code for Face, Lasting Silk UV Foundation SPF 20. Mastering a new high-definition cosmetic textile, Lasting Silk UV Foundation SPF 20 is a starlight proof, spotlight proof foundation that gives a luminous semi-matte finish that last all day.

Lasting Silk UV Foundation SPF 20 made its first red carpet appearance at the Academy Awards on Anne Hathaway where she was the first of the night to don Armani from head to toe (literally!). This awards season has been a great win for Lasting Silk UV Foundation SPF 20 as well!

It has graced the faces of Uma Thurman, Kerry Washington, Christina Applegate, Alicia Keys, Taraji Henson, Laura Linney, Rihanna and Leona Lewis – they are all fans of the Giorgio Armani Beauty line.

Giorgio Armani Beauty’s New Lasting Silk UV Foundation SPF 20 fluid and innovative texture has been achieved through the deconstruction of a classic foundation and the reinvention of a unique composition of highly selective ingredients that improve makeup hold yet procure an intense, fresh, lighter silk sensation and luminous matte finish – the new lasting Armani touch.

Tim Quinn, Giorgio Armani Beauty’s Celebrity Makeup Artist and National Artistic Director, says “Lasting Silk UV SPF 20 Foundation is the perfect foundation for women on the go, but also for women who simply crave seamless coverage. For the every-day woman, this is a fantastic quality as it allows you to put it on in the morning with the confidence that it will look the same at the end of the day. There’s nothing worse than looking in the mirror midday and wondering where all your makeup went!”

The secret of Lasting Silk UV Foundation SPF 20 lies in the special high-tech Microfil fine milling process that combines water essence, micronized optical effect particles, high tech fitting silk and micro blend luminous pigments. The exclusive blend of extremely concentrated water essence (50%) has a smooth application. The soft focus, fine micronized spherical optical powder particles diffuse light to smooth and add transparency and luminosity to the skin’s surface. It contains a new blend of fine high-impact pigments for a radiant, durable color. The result is a barely perceivable seamless silk veil of infallible semi-matte color that dresses the skin’s contours to perfection.

How to achieve the Timeless Waves look with PureOlogy:
1. Prepare the hair with PureOlogy HydrateShampoo and Condition to give hair the moisture it needs.
2. Cocktail NanoGlaze and StylingLotion together and apply to damp hair for control and shine.
3. NanoGlaze’s humidity resistant properties and shine enhancement in combination with StylingLotion’s medium hold power and shine enhancement gives the perfect combination to blow dry the hair for maximum control.
4. Begin blow drying hair with a medium to large round brush, directing hair away from the face.
Once the hair is dry, take 1 ½” or 2″ vertical section and apply InCharge FlexibleStylingSpray. Use either a 1″ or 1 ½” curling iron (depending on if you want larger or tighter curls). Continue taking vertical sections and spray each section with InCharge FlexibleStylingSpray before curling.
5. Pin each curl with a single prong metal clip.
6. Let hair curl for 20 minutes and remove pins. Cocktail ShineLuxe and NanoWax together and finger comb through hair to create beautiful waves.
7. For a smoother look on top with wave more toward the bottom, (like Tina Fey) use a cushion paddle brush through the top to create smoothness. Finish up with a final setting of InCharge FlexibleStylingSpray for a touchable feel and GlossingMist for more shine.

How to achieve the Classic Chignon look with PureOlogy:
1. Prepare the hair with NanoWorks Luxury Shampoo and Condition for maximum shine, health, and manageability.
2. Next apply a cocktail of PowerDressing and ShineMax to wet hair for light hold and incredible shine. Blow dry from roots to end with a large paddle brush to give a nice straight blow dry.
3. Once hair is dry, apply DryShine throughout the hair for control and shine. Using a soft cushioned brush, pull all hair back into a low Ponytail and secure with elastic.
4. To achieve a fuller crown, back brush hair at the crown area with a small teasing brush before pulling hair into a low ponytail.
5. Brush the ponytail smooth and wrap it around itself and secure with bobby pins.
6. Finish off with InChargePlus FirmFinishingSpray for super hold and GlossingMist for shine. Leave a few pieces out around the face to soften the look, like Hayden Panettiere and curl them after lightly misting hair with SuperSmooth Hot Iron Protection Spray for a long lasting look.

How to achieve the Low Ponytail look with PureOlogy:
1. Cocktail PowerDressing and NanoGlaze and apply to damp hair, blow dry hair smooth.
2. Create a center or side part and apply InCharge FlexibleStylingSpray all over. Pull hair into a low ponytail at the nape of the neck or off to the side.
3. Finish ends with a small amount of ShineLuxe.
