Want to get chill-proof cute like these two gorgeous stars? We’ve got the scoop right from their stylists!

Sundance has shown some great examples of winter-appropriate makeup: simple and effortlessly pretty. How do you get gorgeous like Emma Roberts and Elizabeth Olsen? I’ve got the information straight from the folks that got them red carpet ready. Read on to steal their winter makeup looks!

Celebrity makeup artist Sonia Lee prepped Emma Roberts’ skin for the premiere of her upcoming film, “Homework.” Here’s a quote on how she achieved Emma’s lovely complexion.

1. Start with Votre Vu SpecialEyes Intensive Eye Treatment before you apply your makeup
2. Prep your skin with a touch of  Votre Vu Amour d’Ore Multi, which contains vitamin oil for face, body and hair to lock moisture in.
3. Use Votre Vu Champagne Kisses Enhancing Lip Balm for soft lips and an amazing base for lip color.

Breakout star Elizabeth Olsen stopped by The Sephora Beauty Studio at the Samsung Galaxy Tab Lift to take advantage of the Sephora Flawless Foundation Express Service at The Sephora Beauty Studio. Her fresh makeup look was achieved by celebrity makeup artist Erik Soto. Here’s how he achieved her light and pretty makeup look:

1. Use Stila Convertible Color for a really natural glow for your cheeks. Added bonus: it also doubles as a lip gloss.
2. Apply a sheer lip gloss like Sephora Ultra Shine Lip Gloss in Shiny Natural Look for a soft, pretty pout.
3. Seal the look with a translucent HD powder like MAKE UP FOR EVER HD Microfinish Powder to conceal any pore imperfections, cover shine and provide a flawless, camera-ready complexion.

Give this a try for your next winter’s night on the town. After all, just because it’s cold outside, that doesn’t mean you can’t look hot!

Want to learn a few tricks on how to stay gorgeous in the cold from Hollywood’s hottest stars? Read on!

Everyone who’s anyone has suddenly descended upon Park City, Utah for the Sundance Film Festival. See how stars like rising star Elizabeth Olsen still look so incredibly pretty even in freezing temperatures? Let’s discuss how you can do the same. Read on, beauty fans!

The keys to staying gorgeous in harsh winter weather are very simple:

Exfoliation – Sloughing off dead, dull skin will help generate and reveal healthy skin underneath. One of the best double-duty beauty products ever is a warming scrub that actually generates heat, like the amazing Philosophy Be Somebody Water Lily Hot Salt, Tub and Shower Scrub. For your face, a device that will help exfoliate gently is always amazing, like the Clarisonic Mia Skin Cleansing System.

Hydration – Even though moisture is flying all around you, staying hydrated is the only way to look good as the mercury drops. Go for the heaviest moisturizers you can find. Body butters like Clinique Deep Comfort Body Butter always work beautifully. For the face, I actually use night cream during the day when harsh weather strikes, like L’Oreal Skin Expertise Revitalift Complete Anti-Wrinkle & Firming Moisturizer Night Cream.

Keep it simple – Even when you see stars on the red carpet at Sundance, you’ll notice that they don’t really look like they’re wearing a lot of makeup, which works because snow + freezing cold + wet weather = melted face. Instead of using all over foundation, spot treat blemishes and troubled areas with concealer like Smashbox High Definition Concealer, then go for NARS The Multiple in Orgasm for a healthy flush to eyes and cheeks. Follow with two coats of an amazing mascara like M•A•C False Lashes Mascara, then finish the look with a gorgeous, natural lip gloss like NARS Lip Gloss in Stolen Kisses.

When it comes to fragrance, winter is the perfect time for a warm scent that makes folks want to nuzzle you. Try a gorgeous floral oriental like Alien by Thierry Mugler Eau de Toilette.

Just remember: even though it’s cold outside, that doesn’t mean that you have to look anything less than red carpet fabulous. Remember these beauty essentials and look just as gorgeous at the stars at Sundance!

Winter weather-proof your lips with these amazing lip balms and treatments!

Ugh! One of the worst things about winter is painful, dry lips! Between arid temperatures, dry indoor heat and freezing blasts of winter weather, the skin on your lips can really take a beating. I’m here to help!  Read on for tips to keep your lips soft through the winter months!

Any and all of the products in the gallery below are absolutely essential to make sure that your lips stay soft and pain-free this winter. Here are some other things you should be doing:

Stop licking your lips: If I give you one piece of advice that you never forget, it’s to stop licking your lips if they feel dry. Saliva might feel better for a second but it only dries your lips out further and can add irritation if you already have an open wound.

Exfoliate regularly – At night when you’re washing your face, wet your lips and using a soft washcloth or a toothbrush GENTLY exfoliate the skin on your lips. Immediately apply a lip balm and you’ll wake up with amazing, soft, hydrated lips.

Have lip balm handy at all times – I have lip balm in my purse, next to my bed, on my coffee table while I’m watching tv, at my desk, etc. and I apply it all day long. Do not slack on this task. You should be applying lip products often and even more frequently if you’re outside in the cold.

Always apply lip balm before you go to bed – This is the other cardinal rule you have to remember. Right before you go to sleep, apply your lip treatment. Your body dehydrates itself as you sleep and you need to protect your lips from drying out.

Drink TONS of water – Honestly, that should go without saying but dry winter temperatures make it hard to hold onto your body’s moisture. Stay hydrated!

Hope these tips helped you! After all, you’ve got to keep those lips in good condition. They frame your smile and you never know when a good kiss could be coming.

Stay beautiful, BFFs!

The actress is working some FIERCE red lips on the red carpet. Here’s how to get the look!

Leighton Meester looked positively lovely at last night’s red carpet premiere of her new movie, Country Strong. I am particularly LOVING the red lip gloss that she’s working right here. In fact, I loved it so much I’ve given you six genius little glosses to steal her look.  Read on for instructions on how to steal this hot look:

Red lipgloss should be an instant glamour solution for any and all women. Not only is it easier to apply than red lipstick (easier clean up if you go over the lip line,) but it has a sexy shine that’s hard to achieve with red lipstick.

Looking for an instant product to up your game for cocktails or a shot at that hottie across the room at the office christmas party? Yep, this is your product. Be sure to look a good blue-red tone (the universally-flattering color, think “scarlet”) and a decent amount of shine. Apply and call a clean up crew for all the bodies that will literally fall at your feet.

But I digress. What do you think of Leighton’s red carpet beauty look? Vote now!

Get the gorgeous golden look the actress sported on the red carpet for a great holiday party look!

Olivia Wilde is a stunning actress and she truly knocked them over at last night’s premiere of TRON Legacy. This look is perfect for those of you who still have a few more weeks of holiday parties, so let’s break down how you can steal it for yourself with products from your local drugstore:

Add a great shine serum and hair protector like John Frieda Frizz-Ease Hair Serum Thermal Protection Formula that will protect your hair from heat styling and frizz while it delivers great sheen. Blow your hair sleek with a round brush , then curl the ends from the jawline down with a large barrel curling iron.

The makeup look is about flawless skin and defined eyes. Use L’Oreal Bare Naturale Mineral Finish Luminizing Face Powder in Translucent Rose for a luminous complexion, then add a golden-pink shine to your cheeks with Physicians Formula Shimmer Strips Custom Bronzer Blush & Eye Shadow in Malibu Strip/Pink Sand Bronzer.

Rim your eyes all the way around with a great black liquid liner like this COVERGIRL Line Exact Liquid Liner Pen , then add at least three coats of a good lengthening mascara like COVERGIRL LashBlast Length.

Finish the look with a nudish-pink lipstick or gloss. This  L’Oreal Infallible Plumping Lipgloss in Plumped Pink should do the trick.
