Red carpet season wraps with a bang, thanks to the 86th Annual Academy Awards beauty standouts! P&G Beauty had their loyal hair and makeup gals, Celebrity Hairstylist, Kylee Heath and Celebrity Makeup Artist, Amy Nadine to sum up the night’s hottest hair and makeup trends!
For hair, it was all about the blonde bombshells, especially honey roots to platinum hair. And don’t forget that classic wave (we’re looking at you, Jared Leto!) with the utterly flattering side part with lots of shine and structure. Read on to see some more of our favorite hair, nails and makeup looks from the night.
It’s all about SKIN! What’s Your #BestBeautiful?
Earlier this year, world-renowned Makeup Artist, Pat McGrath predicted that we would be seeing luminous skin all over the runways and red carpets in 2014. Glowing, luminous skin is exactly what we’ve been seeing this red carpet season. And the Oscars proved no different.
Lupita Nyong’o, Naomi Watts, Cate Blanchett, Julia Roberts and Charlize Theron all walked the red carpet looking nothing less than flawless.
To get glowing, red carpet-worthy skin at home, try the NEW Olay Regenerist Luminous Collection, including:
· Brightening Cream Cleanser – Gently exfoliates and brightens dull, uneven skin.
· Tone Perfecting Cream – Energizes and hydrates to instantly brighten and smooth while reducing the appearance of dark spots over time.
· Dark Circle Correcting Hydraswirl™ – Multicolored pearlescent pigments provide instant brightness and illumination around the eye area.
Once again, Lupita stopped the world with her breathtaking smile and soft, baby blue dress complemented by a pastel pink shimmer polish by Deborah Lippmann.
To create this look:
1. Deborah applied a layer of Gel Lab Base Coat to make the polish last twice as long as a traditional polish, without the harsh gel lights.
2. She then applied two coats of the pale pink shimmer La Vie En Rose, a new polish from her Spring 2014 Collection, Spring Reveries,
3. To complete, she finished with a layer of Gel Lab Top Coat.

1. Start with freshly-washed and conditioned hair using Wella Professionals Brilliance Shampoo and Conditioner.
2. Blow-dry hair with a round brush and diffuser to maximize the volume.
3. Once dry, apply Wella Professionals Extra Volume Mousse at the root to create a strong foundation for the look. Continue blow-drying with a diffuser and round brush until the mousse is distributed evenly and hair begins to take shape.
4. Next, rub 2-3 pumps of Wella Professionals Oil Reflections in the palm of your hands and spread evenly through the hair. This will help lock in the shine and volume without weighing the hair down.
5. To create more volume and texture, lift random sections of the hair and spray with Wella Professionals Stay Essential Finishing Spray.
Charlize Theron
“Charlize‘s hair and makeup look for tonight was inspired by Twiggy and the chic and cool girls of the sixties. The focus is on the eye with the exaggerated lashes and liner, so I kept the rest of her face soft and peachy. The lips are kept pale and light — with a slight sheen using brand-new Dior Addict Fluid Stick in shade #239.” – Pati Dubroff for Dior Beauty

“Charlize is simply stunning with her sleek, smooth, grown out pixie, which complimented her sleek gown with clean lines. If you have a shorter hairstyle you can style it in so many ways, this, being one of them.” – Jenny Balding
Charlize has naturally wavy hair, so you can also recreate this look with a few simple steps.
1. Apply a smoothing, straightening balm, Redken align 12, to clean, wet hair.
2. Blow-dry smooth and wrap the hair back and forward to prevent creating volume.
3. Create a deep side part which works best for your face shape and hairline.
4. Sweep and tuck behind ears.
5. I love Cutler Flyaway stick, which is perfect for keeping your strands sleek and glossy all over.
Jared Leto
Chase and Jared were originally planning on creating a wet side-parted low bun, but then at the last minute, they decided to embrace Jared’s iconic wavy hair and have him wear his hair down. This undeniably cool, rocker hairstyle gives him the classic but edgy look that pairs perfectly with his white Saint Laurent jacket.
Jared’s hair look was a two-day process — Chase used the Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Waves Collection the night before and then freshened up Jared’s hairstyle the next day with the ColorFinity Dry Shampoo.
Here’s how Chase created Jared’s look:
1. First prep wet hair with Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Waves Primer Spray, applying it throughout the hair to enhance your natural wave.
2. Then, apply Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Waves Pomade to the length of the hair, providing a flexible hold and soft, glossy curl definition. Create the desired part and let hair air-dry.
3. The next day, spray Vidal Sassoon Pro Series ColorFinity Dry Shampoo in Rich Darks to the roots to refresh your second-day hair while protecting hair color.
4. Then, spray Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Heat Protect & Shine Spray to the ends to protect hair from heat before straightening it. Take several sections of hair and straighten for a smooth look.
Julia Roberts
Inspired by Julia Roberts‘ custom couture black lace Givenchy gown, Celebrity Makeup Artist, Genevieve Herr gave the Lancôme Ambassadress a glamorous, smoky eye. Keeping the focus on classic, contoured, smoldering eyes, Herr left the rest of the face clean with an elegant, nude lip.

Jessica Biel
“I wanted to do something really fresh, light and feminine. There were so many beautiful pastels in her dress, so I played with those tones.”
KAYLEEN’S STEP-BY-STEP:
1. I prepped Jessica‘s skin with moisturizing face and eye products, Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Cream Intense Hydration and Kiehl’s Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado, to give her makeup a good base to stick to.
2. Then, I used a damp Beauty Blender to apply ck one 3-in-1 face makeup with SPF 8 in fair 200, followed by ck one 3-in-1 concealer in light 1 underneath the eyes, around the nose and along the edges of her mouth to even out her skin.
3. I used Charlotte Tilbury Sculpt and Highlight Powder on the tops of Jessica‘s cheekbones, down her nose, and on her cupid’s bow.
4. I finished her skin with ck one cream + powder blush duo in breath 100 right on the apples of her cheeks and set it with the powder side of the product to give the look staying power throughout the night.
5. For Jessica’s eyes, I started by using a fluffy brush to apply ck one cream + powder bronzer duo in deeply bronzed 400 all over the lid.
6. Then, I used ck one powder eyeshadow in expose and evolved on the inner corners of the eye and along the lash line at the outer corners.
7. I completed her eye with two coats of ck one volumizing mascara on the top lashes to pump up the lashes.
8. Then, I applied the same mascara onto an eyelash comb and combed through the bottom lashes to slightly darken them.
9. For Jessica’s lips, I used Tarte Lip Surgence in Lucky to cover her whole lip with a matte pink; I also used this product in the center of her lips to give dimension and add moisture to her look.
10. Lastly, I gave Jessica‘s lips a good coating of Kiehl’s Facial Fuel No-Shine Lip Balm to soak in while I did her eyes.
Kerry Washington
Kerry Washington looked breathtaking on the Oscar Red Carpet as she wore a dazzling, dusty purple, strapless Jason Wu gown and a beautiful hair look created by Celebrity Stylist, Takisha Sturdivant-Drew using HairArt tools and Neutrogena products.
“I was completely inspired by her amazing dress – and knew I had to create a longer, goddess effect with hair falling on the shoulder,” said Sturdivant-Drew. “I made the look fresh and beachy, with a left part, volume on top and back and sides sleekly pulled back to frame the face. The hair was styled to fall forward on the left side.”
How to Create the Look:
1. “I started with Neutrogena Triple Moisture Shampoo and Neutrogena Triple Repair Conditioner, which Kerry uses every day for a really nice shine and healthy condition.
2. “I then blow-dried the hair using a HairArt H3000 Dryer 1800 using a vent brush, pulling hair up and away to give it texture. I like this dryer because it is lightweight, gets hot but not too hot and leaves the hair looking smooth.
3. “Next, I used HairArt H3000 Heat Brush Pro to created volume at the roots, especially in the crown area.
4. “I pulled hair on right side tight and pinned, then did the same on the left, adding a bit more height at the crown for balance and volume, then pinned.”
5. “Finally, I used a HairArt iTech Infrared 450 Flat Iron to separate the ends and create subtle suggestion of a wave without any curl.”
“Kerry had worn a similar red shade of lipstick for the London premiere of Django Unchained and loved it, so she wanted to recreate that lip color for her Oscar nail look.”
– Katie Jane Hughes
Nail How To: To create the look to complement Kerry’s purple Jason Wu dress, Katie began by painting the nails with two coats of butter LONDON Nail Lacquer in La Moss as a base. She then applied a layer of Nail Lacquer in Saucy Jack to make the nails a bit more red.
Katie finished the look with butter LONDON’s Matte Finish Shine Free Topcoat to make the nails look velvety.
Penelope Cruz
“Penelope‘s look was inspired by the sultry silver screen siren, Sophia Loren. I wanted to really exaggerate her incredible almond-shaped eyes and make them the main focus of the look. When I am creating a look for the red carpet, it’s so important to marry the makeup with the dress, because Penelope’s dress was so bold I wanted to keep the look neutral and glossy but with that touch of old school Hollywood glamour.” – Charlotte Tilbury
1. Penelope’s skin was prepped using Charlotte’s Magic Cream (available Fall 2014) to create a gorgeous, dewy, luminous complexion, which is especially important in the dry humidity of L.A.
2. WonderGlow (available Fall 2014) was lightly applied all over the face to create a flawless, soft focus, candle light effect on the skin creating the perfect base for makeup. A thin layer of Lancôme Tient Miracle foundation in Medium 6 was applied to even out Penelope‘s skintone and a touch of concealer was used on any areas of redness, under the eyes, around the nose and on any imperfections.
3. Using Lancôme Le Crayon Poudre in Taupe, Penelope‘s brows were filled into a Sophia Loren-inspired arch for perfect facial-framing and were set in place using Lancôme Modele Sourcils brow gel.
4. An elongated, feline eye was created using a black Kohl eyeliner on the upper and lower lash line, dragging it upwards and outwards into a feline flick and into the inner corners of the eyes to accentuate Penelope’s beautiful almond eye shape. The inner waterline was also lined with black eyeliner for added intensity.
5. Penelope‘s mesmerizing copper brown smoky eye was created using the Charlotte Tilbury Dolce Vita palette (available Fall 2014) all over the lids and into the socket to bring out the gorgeous amber highlights in Penelope’s brown eyes.
6. A corner eyelash was applied at the outer edges of the eyes for extra red carpet drama to really accentuate and draw out the feline shape of her eyes. Plenty of Lancôme Hypnose waterproof mascara was applied top and bottom for an incredible film-star flutter.
7. The sculpt shade of Filmstar Bronze and Glow (available Fall 2014) was traced under the cheekbones and around the jawline to really accentuate Penelope‘s facial framework using a powder and sculpt brush. The sculpt shade was applied onto the temples using a bronzer brush where the sun would naturally hit for a healthy glow. The highlight shade was applied onto the high points of the cheekbones, down the nose and onto the bow of the lip for a dreamy candlelight effect on the skin.
8. Lancôme Blusher in Rose Subtil was applied on the apples of the cheeks to add a subtle pop of color.
9. The lips were prepped and hydrated using Lancôme Baume in Love lip balm. The lips were lined and then followed by the perfect, pinky nude lipstick shade, Penelope Pink, from the Charlotte Tilbury range (available Fall 2014), which was inspired by and created in homage to Penelope herself.
Amy Adams
Celebrity Makeup Artist, Stephen Sollitto created a sophisticated makeup look for Amy Adams. He stated, “She wore a stunning sapphire blue Gucci gown, modern and clean. Obviously, I am inspired by this color and simply wanted the makeup to be just as sophisticated.”
Below, he breaks down the steps he took to create her flawless red carpet look.
SKINCARE PREP
1. Sollitto prepared Adams’ skin using RéVive Moisturizing Renewal Cream ($195). He stated, “I always moisturize with this product. This is the line I use on myself every day. Prepping the skin is just as important as the makeup you use.”
FOUNDATION
2. Sollitto applied Laura Mercier Smooth Finish Flawless Fluide (NEW – Coming Fall 2014) to create a flawless complexion. He noted, “This foundation is simple to apply with a wet sponge or your fingers. It’s long-wear, oil-free and lightweight. In the end it gives you a matte finish, so you don’t have to dust your face with loose powder — it’s built in.”
EYES
3. Sollitto applied Laura Mercier Baked Eye Colour in Terracotta to Adams’ lids and contrasted the look by applying Laura Mercier Baked Eye Colour in Black Karat under the star’s bottom lashes.
4. To keep Adams‘ eyes looking ”bright,” Sollitto dotted his “ideal champagne shade,” Laura Mercier Caviar Stick Eye Colour in Sugar Frost to the inner corners of Adams’ eyes.
5. He applied NARS Eye Paint Liner in Tatar along the star’s upper lash line to make them “pop.” To finish, he applied Dior Black Out Mascara to Adams’ lashes.
CHEEKS
6. Sollitto applied the perfect “spring-like blush,” Tom Ford Beauty Cheek Color in Ravish to create a look “that was flush with color.”
LIPS
7. Sollitto noted that he wanted to achieve a lip look that was “pretty, a little bit rosy and glossy.” He used Laura Mercier Rouge Nouveau Weightless Lip Colour in Cozy ,which he described as “having the perfect punch I was looking for.” He then layered Tom Ford Beauty Ultra Shine Lip Gloss in Rose Crush over it “for a bit of glamour to match the day.”

Cate Blanchett
“We were inspired by classic, old Hollywood and wanted to give Cate a look that will be timeless,” said Lobell.
Eye
Giorgio Armani Eyes to Kill Eyeshadow Quad #2 Effeto Nudo – Jeanine used the warm taupe shade all over as a base; the deeper taupe on the lid and feathered it into the crease to open up the eye; the light brown was mixed with the deeper taupe and applied to the outer crease and center; and the darkest brown was wet and used as a liner.
Lancôme Hypnôse Waterproof Custom Volume Mascara – After cutting a strip of false lashes and applying to the corner of the eye, Jeanine applied the mascara to the base of the lashes and pressed it in to give her real lashes a false effect.
Face
SK-II Facial Treatment Essence – Jeanine patted this into the skin before applying foundation to allow her to use a more lightweight foundation and to ensure it will stay put all night long.
Giorgio Armani Sheer Blush #10 Beige – Jeanine applied this to the apples of Cate’s cheeks and feathered it out before applying a second coat to ensure she looked like she was glowing from within.
Giorgio Armani Rouge Ecstasy Lipstick in #103 – Jeanine finished the look with this creamy, beige-y pink.
Robert and Cate went for a modern day take on retro Hollywood glamour to complement Cate’s nude Armani Couture gown. Inspired by the classic Hollywood look, Robert wanted to create a young and fresh hairstyle that highlighted her beautiful skin tone as well as offset the old Hollywood feel of her gown.
Here’s how Robert created Cate’s look:
1. First prep wet hair with a golfball size of Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Boost & Lift Foaming Air Mousse, applying throughout the hair for touchable volume, shine and hold.
2. Create a low side part, and then blow-dry hair with HairArt Tourmaline Dryer. Using a 100% boar bristle brush designed by Robert Vetica for Moroccan Oil, roll hair away from the face as to not flatten strands while creating bounce. Use the Boost & Lift Foaming Air Mousse to help keep hair protected against humidity and be sure to blow-dry hair in the front to create soft bangs. Once you have created the desired shape, clip the bangs in place while they cool and then blow-dry the rest of the hair.
3. Once hair is dry, spray each 2-inch section with Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Heat Protect & Shine Spray to protect hair from heat styling. Then, using a ¾ -inch curling iron, curl hair until midway down and continue to curl around the perimeter of the hair for 10 seconds to ensure a strong set.
4. Using a curling iron, set the ends of the hair starting at the nape of the neck. Once the hair has cooled, brush out the curls to soften the look. While brushing the hair out, backcomb the sides and the ends to ensure flexibility.
5. Next, spray Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Flexible Hold Hairspray to hold the look.
6. To finish, add a layer of the Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Extra Firm Hold Hairspray, and use a pin underneath so that hair stays close to the side of the head. Take fine sections of hair, backcomb and pin the other section of hair on top to cover up the pin.
Idina Menzel
Celebrity Hairstylist, Rogue gave Tony Award-winning actress, Idina Menzel, a straight and polished red carpet look for the 2014 Academy Awards. “Idina has really curly hair and with the rain in Los Angeles, we wanted to make sure her hair stayed sleek and frizz-free,” said Roque.
Here is his step-by-step breakdown:
1. Roque asked Idina to wash her hair with John Frieda Frizz Ease Smooth Start Shampoo and Conditioner last night in order to give her the perfect frizz-free foundation for her straight style tonight. “Idina has tight, curly hair, so it was important that she eliminated frizz at the core for easier styling tonight.”
2. To begin styling, Roque created a cocktail of John Frieda Frizz Ease Straight Fixation Styling Crème and 2 drops of Frizz Ease Extra Strength Six Effects + Serum and applied throughout Idina’s clean, wet hair.
3. Next, Roque gave Idina a low side part over her left eye before blow-drying her hair straight using a Mason Pearson Brush. “I believe it’s important part the hair before you begin heat styling.”
4. To prep Idina’s hair for the flat iron, Roque spritzed John Frieda Frizz Ease 3-Day Straight Flat Iron Spray throughout to protect Idina’s hair from the heat of the iron as well as guarantee a smooth, straight look.
5. After flat ironing in sections, Rogue tucked the remainder of Idina’s hair on the left side gently behind her ear and sprayed John Frieda Luxurious Volume All Day Hold Hair Spray for a flawless finish.
Jenna Dewan-Tatum
Celebrity Makeup Artist, Jake Bailey created a soft, angelic look using Avon for Jenna Dewan-Tatum. Jake Bailey paired a soft neutral eye with a creamy nude lip to match Jenna’s pale white Reem Acra gown.
Here’s how to get the look:
1. First, Jake prepped Jenna’s skin with Sjal Cellular Renewal Cream.
2. Jake lined her eyes with Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil and then applied Avon True Color Eyeshadow Quad in Mocha Latte, which he also used to fill in her brows.
3. Next, he coated her lashes with Avon Mega Effects Mascara.
4. On Jenna’s face, he applied Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Foundation.
5. Jake swiped Mark Chic Frills Powder Blush on the apples of Jenna‘s cheeks.
6. For her lips, Jake applied NEW Avon Ultra Color Absolute Lipstick in Creamy Melon.
7. To complete the look, Jake used Chanel Jardin De Camelias Illuminating Powder on Jenna’s cheekbones for a glowing final touch.
Sandra Bullock
Pureology Pureartist, Sandra Joseph has the inside scoop on how to recreate Sandra’s hair look at home.
1. For color and heat protection, lightly mist Pureology Fortifying Heat Spray protective primer on damp hair.
2. Apply Pureology Silk Bodifier Volumizing Mousse from roots to ends and blow-dry with a medium round brush for volume and shine.
3. Create a left side part and smooth left side over the ear.
4. Wrap hair around a 1-inch iron and twist as you wrap, creating a coil effect.
5. Emulsify a small amount of Pureology Anti-Breakage Twist shine-texturizer in hands and work through curls giving definition and additional shine.
6. Finish with Pureology Strengthening Control zero dulling hairspray for a long lasting hold.
