Lancôme national makeup artist Tarek Abbas is Arlenis Sosa’s go-to makeup artist so it’s no surprise that he created the look for Arlenis on Monday evening.

To create a polished complexion, Tarek applied Arlenis Sosa’s and then added a touch of color to her cheeks using Color Design Cream Blush in Chic Cassis. To define her eyes, he used Le Crayon Khôl in Black Ebony on the lower lash line and applied Artliner in Noir to the upper lash line starting at the outer corner. Tarek wanted to give Arlenis a soft, shiny pout so he lined her lips with Le Lipstique in Sheer Chocolate, applied Le Rouge Absolu in Bordeaux and finished with a touch of Juicy Tubes in Dreamsicle.
Celebrity makeup artist Dara Klein created the look for actress Lake Bell.

To create her California glow, I used mark Bronze Pro Bronzing Powder in Pro Glow under her cheekbones, temples, along her hairline and under her jawline, then dusted the apples of her cheeks with mark Good Glowing Mosaic Blush in Chica.”

Lancôme Inside Scoop: 2009 CFDA Fashion Awards!
Who was wearing Lancôme at the 2009 CFDA Fashion Awards last night? Here is the inside scoop on last night’s makeup looks straight from the makeup artists themselves.
Celebrity makeup artist Sandy Linter worked with Michelle Trachtenberg. She accentuated the eyes by first applying Effacernes Waterproof Concealer in Porcelaine I as a shadow base, under eye base and skin corrector giving Michelle a silky soft complexion. Sandy then lined her eyes with Le Crayon Khôl in Black Coffee giving it a smudged effect for a soft contour. To accentuate her eyes even more, Sandy applied Color Design Eyeshadow in Click for a smoky look and Bikini Golden on the inside. She then coated Michelle’s eyelashes with Ôscillation vibrating mascara to give them an extended effect and finish the look.

Blake Lively at 2009 CFDA Awards in Neon Pink Dress
Blake Lively was spotted at the 2009 CFDA Awards last night wearing a pink neon dress. I suspect neon is the latest style trend. My family from England visited me with neon green shirts, which made me laugh hysterically when I saw them. They told me that neon was quite in-style back home. Looks like fashion travels quicker in the UK. Who knew? lol.

Catherine Zeta-Jones: How to Get the Look
David Babaii’s Hair How-To: Catherine Zeta-Jones at 37th AFI Lifetime Achievement Awards!
After gently towel-drying her hair to remove excess water, I warmed a small amount of Hair Polish in the palms of my hands before applying it through the hair. I’ve found warming this product actually boosts its ability to seal the cuticle, while repairing and strengthening each strand. Not to mention the shine!
Next, I dried her hair using my David Babaii for WildAid Blow Dryer with the nozzle attachment and a large round brush to smooth hair straight. Try to avoid any metal coated brushes. These brushes only generate unnecessary heat and will cause hair to be baked not dried. I sectioned her hair first: top, sides and back. To begin, I started by drying the nape area first and then proceeded until her entire head was dry.
