On Heidi Klums makeup:

from http://talkingmakeup.com/

..Hair and Makeup-Hairstylist Helena Faccenda and Victoria’s Secret makeup artist Linda Hay used Victoria’s Secret So Sexy hair products and Very Sexy Makeup to complete Heidi’s look.

Heidi’s Makeup was inspired by her gown. Makeup artist Linda Hay focused on the eyes, the absence of color and neutral lip. The skin was sun-kissed with a beige/bronzy look from head to toe using a mix of Victoria’s Secret Bare Bronze Gleaming Self Tan Tint and Victoria’s Secret Daily glow Moisturizer to her whole body and a light sweep of Ooh La La Shimmer Powder to line her legs, arms and shoulders. For Heidi’s face, Linda used tinted moisturizer to even out her complexion and a little concealer around the eyes and nose. A light dusting of translucent powder and Goddess Bronzer to shape and contour her face.

For Heidi’s eyes, Linda used Black Velvet Eye Pencil to draw a very thin line on the top lash line. Then using the 2 lighter Charcoal colors in the Satisfied Eye Very Sexy Mosaic Palette, she lightly smudged the the pencil and drew in the crease. Linda used the white shadow in the Mosaic palette to highlight right underneath the brow line and dot at the inside corner of the eye. Underneath, she also added a thin sweep of lightest silver to gently define the eye.

Next, she applied individual lashes to top and bottom lashes and about 4 or 5 applications of Victoria’s Secret Very Voluptuous Black Mascara. To make the eyes pop up even more, she used Sparkling White Eye Pencil. The lips kept matte. Linda use Ginger Spice to line her lips and filled them with a combinations of Whisper and Spontaneous.

Katherine Heigl looks terrible.

My favorites were Marion Cotillard and Anne Hathaway.

 

[Hanne]

I don't think Katherine Heigl looks terrible.. the makeup is beautiful, but it does age her quiet a bit.. it's old fashion Hollywood glamour she's (or her stylist) is going for..not something more youthful and fresh which I think would have been a better match for her (but not for the dress tho').

 

[camiller]

katherine hiegl(?) and heidi klum both look terrible, like their makeup artists got carried away with bronzer. & miley cyrus' makeup is just really unflattering.
renee, marion, jessica alba & jennifer garner all looked quite good though.

What bad pics of the ladies!
Jen Garner espically.

Katherine Heigl's blush is just all wrong.
Way too dark for her skin.

I liked Jessica Alba's and Penelope Cruz's makeup the best.
Penelope's hair was great too.

 

[Ella Petrovsky]

Katherine always looks the same with that bright red lipstick. Miley just looks too old for her age. I think Marion did it just right

 

[Rebel Yell]

everyone looks...i dunno. Overdone, maybe? It makes a lot of them look older..

 

[Hanne]

Yeah they are overdone, but they were made up for television.. I'm sure most of them looked rather clownish up close in person.

 

[GasolineRainbow]

^^^ High definition screens are a b****. They magnify every little imperfection, and I think as a result, too many actresses and makeup artists get carried away with overapplication. I feel like almost everyone wore too much makeup, although I did think Marion Cotillard(sp?) looked beautiful.

Exactly. But that bronzer/blush is a bit much!

I love Anne Hathaway's makeup. But i agree that some of these ladies have too much makeup on, it just doesnt compliment their lovely features

Marion Cotillard's sparkling silver eyeshadow was so special. Loved her hair too.
