Celebrity Inspired Hair and Makeup
Everyone looks to Hollywood for beauty inspiration, especially when it comes to award shows: The Oscars, The Emmys, what’s not to love, right? Celebs in fabulous gowns with gorgeous (sometimes) hair and makeup. And with more white, bridal-looking gowns coming down the red carpet, it’s easy to translate these looks into wedding day ones. Wherever you are on your beauty timeline (months to go, ripping pictures from magazines, or frantically skimming websites days before your trial that’s tomorrow), let these expert tips and celebrity wedding hair and makeup looks help narrow down your selection:
When choosing your wedding hair, be guided by your gown. Hudson’s updo is perfect for showing off the main feature on this dress: The back (or lack of one). Showing skin that’s usually hidden can reveal sneaky blemishes you didn’t know you had. Cover any exposed areas with makeup — or see your dermatologist at least a month before your big day — if needed, says hair and makeup artist Greg Clark.

Kate Beckinsale“Hollywood sparkle calls for Hollywood hair,” says Clark of Beckinsale’s vintage-inspired style. “Break out your jumbo hot rollers and don’t remove them until they’re completely cool. Finish by brushing hair with cushioned hairbrush for gorgeous waves.”

Anna Kendrick
Kendrick nailed it with a smoky eye and loose side bun. “When pulling hair back, frame the face in a softer, sexier way by sweeping [hair] over your hairline and around. Brushing it straight back can look severe,” Clark warns.
Kim Kardashian
“When you’re a dark-haired beauty, why not turn up the sultry?” says Clark. Kardashian certainly does that here. “Her unfussy gathered hairstyle and heavily smoked eyes prove white dresses don’t necessarily require a ‘virginal’ beauty look.”

Eva Longoria Parker
“Afraid buns put you on the library staff? Longoria Parker finds a soft balance, and avoids matronly primness with overall fullness, and a few loose pieces escaping the casually gathered knot,” says Clark.
Nicole Richie
“Even a hairstyle that holds most of the hair back can benefit from face-framing bangs,” says Clark. “Richie’s are casually swept to the sides and blended with wispy layers for a soft, youthful effect.”
