Elegant Classic Perfection Hairstyles Backstage At Ralph Lauren

New York Fashion Week S/S 2012

Make up artist Tom Pecheux started with a matte foundation, then applied white shadow from the eyelid to the brow bone. He placed black mascara on just the upper lash and curled the top lash for added impact.

Tom used apricot and pink blush on the apples of cheeks to add dimension, and finished the look with a gold-hued gloss softly placed on lips.

Guido Palau Hair Styling Tips

Guido Palau kept hair clean, simple and modern – the epitome of the Ralph Lauren woman. “The look is easy sophistication achieved by a ponytail.  It’s very elegant, but not forced. It’s just about true beauty and a luxurious look.”

Hair Style – To create the look:

1.  Blow dry hair using Redken guts 10 root targeted volume spray foam to achieve a bouncy blowout.
2.  Part hair in center and pull back using fingers to make it feel effortless.
3.  Pull hair back into a ponytail a few inches above the nape of the neck and tie with elastic.
4.  Take a small section of the hair and wrap around the elastic to cover the elastic.
5.  Finish with Redken forceful 23 super strength finishing spray to smooth the fly-a-way’s.

The fragrance complementing this exquisite look was Ralph Lauren Romance. One of Ralph Lauren’s most beloved fragrances for women, Ralph Lauren Romance has celebrated authentic romantic moments with iconic imagery since its launch in 1998.

Rep Michele Bachmann’s Good Hair Bill

Presidential candidates are required by FEC rules to disclose their budgets and spending.  It has now been revealed that Rep. Michele Bachmann has had a major surge in hair and make-up spending.

According to official records, Bachmann spent nearly $4,700 on hair and make-up since June, which is considered surprising with regard to her long time spending habits in the hair and make-up arena.

Some Bachmann watchers are predicting her hair and makeup spending will cause harm to her campaign.  But will it?

$4,700 Spent On Hair And Makeup Since June

According to Bachmann’s latest campaign finance filings, her campaign spent nearly $4,700 on hair and makeup in the weeks after she entered the presidential race on June 13. Records show her campaign made three payments of $1,715, $250, and $2,704 to a Maryland-based stylist named Tamara Robertson.

Robertson’s LinkedIn profile says she works as a makeup artist at Fox News in the DC area. She’s also listed in the “Make-up” section of the credits for the Citizens United-produced film A City Upon a Hill, hosted by Newt and Callista Gingrich.

Imagine how thrilled I was when I saw that Marissa Shipman’s BalmsAway Eye Makeup Break-up was featured in the Look What We Found section of the June 2008 O – The Oprah Magazine. Yes, I know. HairBoutique.com is about…well…hair.

But being a girly girl, I love everything that goes with hair including cool lip balms, eye makeup, fragrances, accessories….you know the gig.

Yes, I am obsessed with hair but it seems a crime to have awesome hair and blah eyes. If you have great hair, great eye make-up and fab earrings, it seems a shame to have a paleface, no lip gloss and a blah outfit. You see where this is all going? Yes, indeed.
