Red Carpet beauty inspired by Claire Danes and Jessica Alba: get a Glam look for less using drugstore beauty products

get red carpet looks for less with COVERGIRL, Olay and Aussie
Chances are the bustling beauty teams that style Claire Danes and Jessica Alba for regal red carpet events won’t be showing up at my doorstep any time soon, because unlike the stars, we mere mortals must fend for ourselves when it comes to getting ready for parties and nights on the town (or nights on the couch with your cat, if you’re also into that).

Ikke noe problem. getting glam doesn’t have to involve a small army of beauty professionals (although, not gonna lie, if a pro prep team suddenly appeared — POOF! — I would NOT turn them away).

Recreating red carpet looks at home can be easy and fun, and with drugstore beauty products, it doesn’t have to break the bank.

I recently gave two of my favorite red carpet looks a try from this year’s golden Globes — a look Claire Danes wore with smokey eyes and nude lips, and Jessica Alba’s look with brown eyes and tangerine lips — both of which seemed simple and elegant, which Jeg likte.

Gearing up for a big night? If you are, you can get red carpet ready like Claire and Jessica using makeup, hair, body and skincare products from COVERGIRL, Olay, Aussie and Secret.

Who says that going glam is reserved for the stars?

Inspired by: Claire Danes

Oh, Angela Chase. You’ve come so far since Jordan Catalano wrote that song about you about his car…

I absolutely loved the wavy hair, smokey eyes and nude lips Claire recently wore. Hello, stunning!

1. let the glamification begin: skin and hair

Start by prepping in the shower with a hydrating body wash like Olay Ultra moisture Body wash ($5.99), and washing and conditioning your hair with Aussie Aussome volume Shampoo and Conditioner ($3.99 each).

Even if the paparazzi aren’t currently stalking you, there’s no reason to let ’em see you sweat, so swipe some secret clinical strength stress response ($7.99) under those ‘pits, girl!

Okay, time to tame the mane. apply Aussie Aussome volume styling Mousse ($4.99) to wet hair for hold and volume, and either air or blow dry.

When your hair is dry, recreate Claire’s waves by curling the ends with a large barrel curling iron. Then, mist your mane all over with Aussie You Can shine Spray Gloss ($3) for red carpet shine.

2. Gotta prep

Ready to play with makeup? Me too, but let’s get our skin ready first with face products from the Olay professional even skin tone Line, and disguise any uneven areas or imperfections by applying a liquid foundation like COVERGIRL Outlast 3-in-1 foundation ($12.99).

If your skin tone’s similar to Claire’s, try the shade called classic Ivory. I have a little — okay, a lot! — more of a tan, so something like classic Tan works for me.

3. Sights set on smokey eyes

Now for my favorite part — the eyes!

Start by applying your favorite eye primer to your lids, curling your lashes and filling in your brows.

Next, for your smokey eyes, line both upper and lower water lines with COVERGIRL perfect point plus eyeliner in Black Onyx ($5).

With the same pencil, line your upper and lower lash lines; soften the lines by smudging the edges with a flat eye shadow brush.

Now, it’s time to add the smoke!

Load your flat brush with a combination of black and blue shadows, like COVERGIRL Eye Enhancers 1-Kit shadows in Shimmering Onyx and Sapphire sparkle ($4.50 each). combining the shades here adds depth to the smokey effect.

Pat the mix on your lids and barely into the creases. Then, using a domed blending brush, blend away any harsh edges.

To refine your smokey look even more, take your domed brush, and load it with your favorite blush. Something like COVERGIRL instant Cheekbones Contouring blush in sophisticated Sable ($6) should work terrific for Claire’s look.

Sweep your loaded domed brush into your creases and along your lower lash lines to soften the edges. This helps everything look a little more polished.

Finish up your eyes by applying a few coats of COVERGIRL Clump Crusher Mascara ($6.99).

4. Wrapping it up

From here on out, the rest is cake!

Sweep that same blush, sophisticated Sable, on your cheeks, apply a nude lip color, like COVERGIRL Lip perfection Jumbo Gloss Balm in Toffee twist ($8.99) on your lips, and wrap up with a coat or two of COVERGIRL Outlast nail Gloss in forever Frosted ($5.99) on your nails.

Products Clockwise from the blue pan in the upper left: COVERGIRL Eye Enhancers 1-Kit shadows in Sapphire Sparkle, COVERGIRL Eye Enhancers 1-Kit shadows in Shimmering Onyx, COVERGIRL Jumbo Gloss Balm in Toffee Twist, COVERGIRL Outlast nail Gloss in forever Frosted, COVERGIRL perfect point plus eyeliner in Black Onyx and COVERGIRL Clump Crusher Mascara

Inspired by: Jessica Alba

Jessica Alba looked like absolute perfection on the golden Globes red cArpet i år med sitt krøllete hår, brune øyne og mandarin-lepper. Det er en titt jeg egentlig vil ha på seg ikke bare for fester, men å kjøpe dagligvarer, hahaha!

1. Start banen til pen: hud og hår

Som Claire Danes viste Jessica’s Strapless Peach Gown litt hud, så start reisen din til Red Carpet Glam i dusjen med Olay Ultra Moisture Body Wash ($ 5.99) for myk, jevn hud.

Mens du er der, vask og løsne håret ditt med Aussie Aussome Volume Shampoo og Conditioner ($ 3,99 hver), også.

Etter toweling av, ikke glem et par swipes av hemmelig klinisk styrke stressrespons ($ 7,99).

Nå, hår. For en stil som ligner på Jessica, må du bruke Aussie Aussome Volume Styling Mousse ($ 4,99) til vått hår for vent og volum.

Når håret ditt er tørre, krølle en-tommers seksjoner med et stort fat curling jern, og spray aussie aussome volum hår spray ($ 3,99) over for å øke volumet ditt og låse utseendet ned.

2. Bli nydelig: Pre-prep

Før du hopper inn i de gode greiene (øynene, leppene og kinnene!), Prep dine øyne og vipper med Olay Face Micro-Sculpting Lash Duo ($ 22.49).

Selv ut huden din med et fundament som Covergirl Outlast 3-i-1 Foundation i klassisk tan ($ 12,99) før dusting på Covergirl + Olay presset pulver i medium ($ 11,99) for å eliminere glans.

3. Øye se brun liner på den røde løperen

Kickstart Øyet ditt ved å klappe din favoritt øye primer på lokkene dine, arkivering i brynene dine og krølle dine lashes.

Deretter, med en brun øyeforing som Covergirl LiqulineBlast Liner i Brown Blaze ($ 8,79), linje dine øvre vann og lash linjer. Myk øvre lash-linjen ved å smette kanten med en flat øyeskygge børste.

Bruk den flate børsten til å klappe en glimrende gullskygge på lokkene dine og bare knapt inn i krøllene. Prøv: CoverGirl Eye Enhancers 3-Kit Shadows i Golden Sunset ($ 4,99).

Swap ut din flate børste for en kuppel øyeskygge børste, og bruk den til å blande bort noen harde linjer …

Nå, ta den kuppede børsten, og last den med bronzer. Jeg liker den lille glansen som Covergirls Cheekers Bronzer i kobberglans ($ 4,99) har. Sheen holder det fra å se flat på huden.

Sweep bronzeret i dine krøller, bland det inn i Golden Eye Shadow for å skape en subtil gradient.

For å fullføre dine peepers, lag noen få strøk av Covergirl Clump Crusher Mascara ($ 6,99) på både øvre og nedre visninger.

4. Bli nydelig: den endelige loven

Nesten ferdig! Fullfør din røde teppeutseende ved å definere kinnene dine, leppene og neglene med covergirl-sjeksere Blush i Brick Rose ($ 4.99), Covergirl Lip Perfection Jumbo Glass Balm i Coral Twist ($ 8.99) og Covergirl Outlast Stay Brilliant Nail Gloss i Perma-Pink ($ 4.99) .

Med urviseren fra pannen i øvre venstre side: covergirl kinnere rødme i murstein rose, covergirl cheekers bronser i kobber utstråling, covergirl + olay presset pulver i medium, Olay ansikt micro-sculpting lash duo, covergirl outlast 3-i-1 fundament i klassisk brunfarge , Covergirl LiqulineBlast Liner i Brown Blaze og Covergirl Lip Perfection Jumbo Glass Balsam i Coral Twist
