Drew Barrymore at The Golden Globes

Drew Barrymore at The Golden Globes on Belle Belle Beauty

Award season is upon us again! While I try to be sparing with my “Get The Look” posts, I do find sharing some of my favorites is great for makeup inspiration. I certainly couldn’t pass up Drew’s look from last night, not only because I thought she looked fresh and radiant. I have also had the chance to get to know her makeup artist, Debra Ferullo. Debra also collaborated with Drew in developing her Flower line of makeup. Here’s how to get her look:

Debra was inspired by Drew’s floral Monique Lhuillier gown and specifically accented with a bright red, lip. Overall the look was feminine and soft.

FLOWER About Face Foundation with Primer on Belle Belle Beauty

First, she created a canvas using FLOWER About Face Foundation with Primer.

FLOWER Kiss Me Twice Lip & Cheek Chubby in Apricot-a-lot on Belle Belle Beauty

Next, Debra created a natural flush on Drew’s cheeks with FLOWER Kiss Me Twice Lip & Cheek Chubby in Apricot-a-lot.

FLOWER Color Play Creme Eyeshadow in Rest On Your Laurel and Shadow Play Eye Shadow Quad in Foxy Browns on Belle Belle Beauty

She applied FLOWER Color Play Creme Eyeshadow in Rest On Your Laurel to brighten eyes and used the brown shades in Flower Shadow Play Eye Shadow Quad in Foxy Browns in the outer corners.

FLOWER On Your Mark Liquid Eye Liner and Zoom-In Ultimate Mascara on Belle Belle Beauty

Debra lined eyes with FLOWER On Your Mark Liquid Eye Liner and coated lashes with the FLOWER Zoom-In Ultimate Mascara.

FLOWER Lip Suede Velvet Lip Chubby in Red-dy to Bloom on Belle Belle Beauty

Lastly, Debra added a bold lip with FLOWER Lip Suede Velvet Lip Chubby in Red-dy to Bloom.

Am I the only one who was thrown by Pantone’s announcement that Radiant Orchid is the color of the year for 2014? I have nothing against purple, but I am still trying to come to terms with this ultra-feminine shade. Seeing this image inspired me to embrace the trend. I love the way the purple lips look with her icy hair. Anyhoo… let me know if you have thoughts. And here are some gems from around the web:

  • Love this gauzy poncho from Free People and it is finally back in stock!

CARGO Cosmetics at HBO’s “Girls” Premiere and a GIVEAWAY

CARGO Cosmetics at HBO's "Girls" Premiere and a GIVEAWAY on Belle Belle Beauty

I know many a fangirls out there who are pumped for Sunday’s premiere of Girls on HBO. While I am a couple episodes behind, I have to admit I love the show. I am particularly wild about Allison Williams – her style and makeup has been a long time favorite (see all my posts on her here). At the premiere in New York City, the guests feted with a little CARGO cheer, one of Allison’s favorites.

A Winter Skin Care Routine

A Winter Skin Care Routine on Belle Belle Beauty

I don’t know about you, international readers, but all of the United States this week is COLD COLD COLD. And with that comes heaters, wind burn, irritation and dry skin galore. For the past couple of weeks, I’ve been fairly loyal to a skin care routine, and I must say my skin has weathered this fairly well. Here are the five all-starts getting me through the deep winter:
