Look of the Day: Chanel Cruise's Navy Blue Winged Shadow
Have you seen the gorgeous eye makeup look featured at the latest 2019 Chanel Cruise runway show yet?

Set on an ocean liner replica docked in the middle of the Grand Palais, the show made for quite the spectacle. Complexion makeup looked flawless and fresh-faced but otherwise barely-there — the real star of the show was the graphic navy blue liner. "The print of some of the dresses with a futuristic vibe inspired me," explained Global Creative Designer for Makeup and Colour at Chanel Lucia Pica. "So to convey this modernity and follow Karl Lagerfeld's brief I created a strong blue mat graphic eye and kept the skin super fresh, balmy with a touch of glimmer."

After prepping skin with Chanel Hydra Beauty Micro Serum, $110, and Chanel La Solution 10, $80, and priming the eye area with Chanel Hydra Beauty Micro Gel Yeux, $68, Pica set to work creating that fresh-faced base with a light layer of Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua, $50. She then cleaned up any imperfections using Chanel Correcteur de Chanel, $43, and set it all up with Chanel Natural Finish Loose Powder, $52.

Brow-wise, Pica kept things simple: just a tiny bit of Chanel Stylo Sourcils Waterproof, $33, topped with a coat of Chanel Le Gel Sourcils, $32, for some light taming. Cheeks got a dusting of Chanel Palette Essentielle, $60, and lips got a touch of Chanel Rouge Coco Baume, $37, topped with a layer of Chanel Rouge Allure, $37, in the shade Rouge Ingenue.

As for the pièce de résistance? For the eyes, Pica got creative with some of the brand's new summer launches, sketching the graphic winged shape with the new Chanel Stylo Ombre et Contour in the shade Bleu Nuit, $34, also adding in some detail work with Chanel Les 4 Ombres in Quiet Revolution, $61. Finally, she capped the dramatic look off with a healthy coat of Chanel Le Volume Revolution de Chanel.

Pretty darn gorgeous, right? What do you think, will you be taking this look out for a spin at your next summer soiree?

Look of the Day: Beyonce's Glowy Grammys Glam
Want yet another reason to be envious of Beyonce? Well, she got to test drive an "Unreleased Glossier Product" on the Grammys red carpet last night — a drop dead gorgeous rose gold shimmery eye product. Much in the way the Glossier Cloud Paints were unveiled at the 2017 Oscars, Beyonce was the first to sport the brand's new shadow, in a gorgeous makeup look created by Sir John.

In addition to this mysterious new offering from Glossier, Sir John also used the Glossier Perfecting Skin Tint, $26, in Dark and Deep to finesse her complexion, a mixture of Glossier Cloud Paint, $18, in Beam and Haze for blush, and the brand's already-iconic Glossier Boy Brow, $16, in Brown as brow pomade. As the finishing touch, he also applied Glossier Body Hero Daily Perfecting Cream, $22, for a natural all-over glow.

According to Allure, Sir John used products from Yves Saint Laurent and L'Oreal to supplement all that Glossier: He used a mix of Yves Saint Laurent Beaute Tatouage Couture, $36, in Fuschia Intime and Carmine Encounter for her flawless purple lips, as well as the L'Oreal Paris Infallible Total Cover Concealing & Contour Kit, $16.99, for a little extra coverage, and a layering of the L'Oreal Paris True Match Lumi Glotion, $14.99, and the L'Oreal True Match Lumi Shimmerista Highlighting Powder, $14.99, in Sunlight to help boost her glow.

As for her maximum-level glamorous braids (topped with a dramatic fascinator, because of course), they were styled by frequent Beyonce collaborator Neal Farinah, who captioned a striking image displaying Bey's thigh-length braid ponytail, "THE QUEEN IS BACK" — which frankly sums everything up perfectly.

Look of the Day: Millie Bobby Brown's Captivating Cat Eye
In an evening full of superlatively on-fleek makeup looks, "Stranger Things" star Millie Bobbie Brown managed to walk away with one of the very best beauty looks at the 2018 Golden Globes.

Makeup artist Kelsey Deenihan started off by prepping Brown's skin with Kiehl's Powerful-Strength Line-Reducing Concentrate, $62 to smooth and moisturize (though of course it must be said: Brown has no lines to speak of). She also used Kiehl's Creamy Eye Treatment with Avocado, $48 on her eyes, Kiehl's Facial Fuel No-Shine Moisturizing Lip Balm, $9 on her lips, and some shine-inhibiting Kiehl's Micro-Blur Skin Perfector, $35 on her t-zone.

For coverage atop that flawless base, Deenihan applied La Prairie Skin Caviar Concealer Foundation, $225 with a damp sponge. She then contoured with the Avon True Color Transforming Contouring Stick in Medium -- and achieved that enviably epic glow by layering the Avon True Color Illuminating Stick and Avon Powder Highlight.

As for that dramatic cat eye? Deenihan used Avon True Color Glimmersticks Eyeliner in Blackest Black, $7, and added in some extra lash definition with some generous coats of Avon True Color Wide Awake Mascara, $8. For lips, Deenihan kept things really simple -- just a couple swipes of Kiehl's Butterstick Lip Treatment, $19.50.

Look of the Day: Vanessa Hudgens' Sleek and Chic 'Do
"So You Think You Can Dance" judge Vanessa Hudgens stole the spotlight at the show's season 14 finale -- by singing and dancing to her single with Shawn Hook, "Reminding Me." Hudgens took the stage with dancer Robert Roldan, as Hook accompanied the duo crooning at the grand piano -- and it was quite the performance to remember.

One of the factors leading to her success? You know, in addition to her triple threat status? Her gorgeous slicked-back hairstyle. Engineered by celebrity hairstylist Chad Wood, the finished look added extra polish and panache to her performance. Wood started by prepping Hudgens' hair with John Frieda Frizz Ease Air Dry Waves Styling Foam, $7.99, before blow-drying for extra volume. He also added in a few extensions for some bonus length, next curling the hair (and subsequently shaking out said curls) to get those covetable loose waves.

Next, Wood injected a touch more volume with John Frieda Luxurious Volume Volume Refresh Dry Shampoo, $6.99, then applied some John Frizz Ease Secret Weapon Touch-Up Créme, $6.99 to give her waves a texture that was equal parts piecey and smooth. He finished the look up with John Frieda Frizz Ease Extra Strength Six Effects Serum, $9.99 and John Frieda Luxurious Volume Forever Full Hairspray, $6.99.

Look of the Day: Queen Latifah's Sexy, Slicked Back Style
There's a reason Queen is in her name, as last night Queen Latifah looked like pure royalty at the 2017 BET Awards with her long, sleek strands and curve-hugging black gown. To get her show-stopping look, Latifah teamed up with Unilever celebrity hairstylist, Ursula Stephen, who says pulling back one side of her hair adds just the right amount of attitude to the gown.

The key to this look? Starting with clean hair. Stephen used Dove Intensive Repair Shampoo, $3.49, and Dove Intensive Repair Conditioner, $3.49, in order to protect the queen's hair from any heat damage. Once finished shampooing, Stephen applied the Suave Professionals Avocado + Olive Oil Leave-In Conditioner, $3.99, before blow-drying hair (starting at the roots), to keep hair extra smooth.

Once Latifah's hair was dry, she divided her strands into small sections and began to flat iron it. Once finished, Stephen's spritzed Suave Professionals Luxe Style Infusion Anti-Humidity Hairspray, $3.99, generously throughout her hair to prevent frizz and flyaways. To get the signature look, she parted Latifah's hair down the side and combed back the hair on the side, securing with en elastic and bobby pin. To really clean up the look, Stephen finished by going over the free hair again with a flat iron and pulled some pieces forward to further frame her face.
