Emmy Roundup: Get the Look and Other Backstage Tips
Last night's Emmy Awards brought a barrel of fresh hair and makeup looks, and we found it fabulous that many an actress stepped away from their staple looks (like Kim Kardashian's mega waves) and went for something different to spice up the red carpet. We've gathered some of the best tidbits from backstage last night so you can get your favorite small screen star's look.
Jenna Fischer's Effortless Waves
TRESemme celeb stylist Mara Roszak styled Fischer's loose waves. She started by parting hair slightly off center when the hair was damp and applying TRESemme 24 Hour Body Root Boosting Spray to roots and brushing through. Next, she applied a dime-sized amount of TRESemme Fresh Start No-Frizz Creme to the ends, and blow-dried hair smooth with a medium-sized round brush. Once dry, she created natural-looking waves with a 1 1/4 inch barrel curling iron rotating the direction of the iron, leaving the ends of the hair out. Last, she broke up the waves with her fingers, and finished with TRESemme Naturals Finishing Spray.
Anna Paquin's Vamp Updo
On wet hair, Renato Campora applied the Fekkai Full Blown Volume Styling Whip to the roots and the Fekkai Coiff Perfecteur Anti-Frizz Silkening Crème. Once dried, he used a half-inch curling iron and set the hair in pin curls. After 15 minutes, Campora removed the curls and ran his fingers through the hair to loosen and create shape. Next, he pulled the hair back into a high French twist, revealing the nape of her neck, and secured with bobby pins. To create volume, Campora loosened the hair at the crown of her head, resulting in a softer, yet glamorous style. He finished the look with Fekkai Advanced Sheer Hold Hairspray.
January Jones's Frosty Makeup
"For January's make up I was inspired by Irving Penn's iconic photos of his wife/supermodel Lisa Fonssagrives, whose signature extended eyeliner symbolizes the epitome of elegance," said Chanel makeup artist Rachel Goodwin. "I used ultra feminine colors with super sculptural liner for a cool update on that classic late 50's silhouette. I used CHANEL Liquid Eyeliner in Noir along the lash line for an exaggerated cat eye effect, adding extra lashes on just the very outer edges for added length. I then applied two coats of inimitable CHANEL Inimitable Intense Mascara in Noir on the top lashes and one coat of CHANEL Inimitable Intense Mascara in Purple on the bottom lashes. The rest of the face I kept understated using minimal foundation, pale pink cream cheek color and CHANEL Rouge Allure Extrait de Gloss in Confidence on her lips. I finished the look by dusting her brow bone and lids with a loose iridescent pearl shadow with a hint of purple to play off the super reflective quality of her dress."
