GIRL CRUSH: Naomi Watts

Naomi Watts proved that mommies can be glam too! Two nights ago at the Salt premiere, Naomi looked smoldering hot with a new 'do (the Gwynie blob - long bob), a tan and the perfect smoldering eye. How gorge is she! Major girl crushing going on over here. I absolutely love this hair style, long side parted bangs with straight, jagged edged, above-the-shoulder cut and, apparently the hair is shorter in the back. This look is all about texture!

Inspired by the lines of the metallic strapless Gucci mini-dress that Naomi wore, stylist Robert Vetica created a sleek look that referenced 60's British pop and a Studio 54 vibe refined by a soft, natural mood.

According to Vetica, "It was quite a change for Naomi.  I cut 2 inches off, kept her hair blunt and collarbone length, and created bangs that swooped to the side. The length is a bit longer in front and slightly higher in back. The bangs were first cut long and blunt, then razored and texturized to about the bridge of the nose so they looked lighter around the face and were easily swept to the side.

GET THE LOOK:

"I started with Moroccanoil Light because fine blonde hair tangles so easily but can't take too much conditioner.  Argan oil-infused Moroccanoil absorbs right into delicate lightened hair, makes it easier to comb, gives it a smoother texture, and eliminates flyaways.  It also makes blowdrying faster, all without weighing hair down. The strands look light and airy, as if I didn't use any product.

After I blowdried the hair and shaped it, I used Moroccanoil Glimmer Shine Spray for an added boost of shine for when she appeared in the spotlight. I finished off with Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray to keep flyaways at bay for the length of the evening, while still allowing the hair to move.  I did a couple of quick mists from about 6 inches, then put a comb through the hair right away to loosen the look while keeping its hold."

GIRL CRUSH: Scarlett Johansson at the Iron Man 2 Premiere

With all the Met madness it would be easy to forget about the premiere of Iron Man 2, but Scarlett Johansson's glamorous appearance on the red carpet is one that receives my coveted Girl Crush.


She looked radiant. The hair and makeup were flawless, adding an Old Hollywood edge, channeling the likes of stralet, Grace Kelly. I assume that she wore Dolce & Gabbana makeup -- as Scarlett is the face of the collection -- and she did them proud. Notice how defined her brows are, shaping the face and flaunting her gorgeous eyes, dressed up with a black liner and mascara and complimented by a glossy, nude lip. Simple yet timeless.

Products to try:

The Eyeliner Crayon Intense in Black
The Mascara Volumized Lashes in Black
The Lipstick Shine Lipstick in Baby Darling - a semi-sheer nude

As for the hair, Scarlett chose an updo courtesy of hair stylist extraordinaire, David Babaii. "A perfect complement to the flowing waves and graceful lines of her ice blue Armani Privé dress, the look emphasized a flowing cascade of smooth, well-conditioned waves pulled back into a graceful bun."

Babaii used Argan Oil-infused Moroccanoil products to create the effect. "I started with wet hair, working in Moroccanoil Intense Curl Cream for gentle hold and to create a texture that was soft and smooth. With my hands, I then scrunched her hair and manipulated it to get the desired shape that I was looking for. I also used a diffuser to help shape the curls. Next, I gathered Scarlett's hair and pinned it around the back of her head to create a simple and elegant bun. The curls looked beautiful and defined themselves. To complete the look, I misted Moroccanoil Glimmer Shine Spray all over. Scarlett's hair looked fresh and soft, with lustrous curls and fabulous shine. The Moroccanoil products were amazing to work with and helped complete the perfect red carpet look!"
