2010 Oscars

Sandra Bullock @ 2010 Oscars

Sandra Bullock @ 2010 Academy Awards

I love this dress… definitely one of my favorites of the night.  I can’t tell if the lipstick is fuchsia-red or maybe just fuchsia.

Makeup How-to

“Tonight was Sandra’s big night and she was in a happy, ethereal mood. I wanted her to look like the true movie star she is, so we went with modern classy Hollywood – dewy skin, soft eyes, and a bold classic red lip.” — Angela Levin

Angela prepped Sandra’s skin with CHANEL Sublimage Fluid. She then used a foundation brush to apply CHANEL Vitalumiere Satin Smoothing Fluid Makeup in Shell all over the face. Angela created a structured brow with the soft brown powder in the limited edition Les Regards de CHANEL Palette. She lined Sandra’s eyes with the darker brown shade in the same palette.

Finally, she applied three coats of CHANEL Inimitable Waterproof Mascara in Noir for sexy, glamorous lashes. To create the real focus of Sandra’s look – a gorgeous, bold red lip – Angela applied CHANEL Rouge Coco Lip Colour in Paris. She finished the look by gently dabbing a bit of the same lip colour on the apples of Sandra’s cheeks – Angela’s signature makeup trick.

Hair How-to

INSPIRATION: Abergel wanted to bring back simplicity, with Sandra’s sleek and straight down-do. The strong side part created beautiful lines to compliment her dress. He modernized the texture of the hair by creating a sleek look, with a slight wave at the end.

Conditioned hair is very important for any sleek style. Abergel used FEKKAI ADVANCED GLOSSING SHAMPOO AND CONDITONER, leaving the conditioner on for 15 minutes. He then rinsed and towel dried the hair. Then he parted the hair in a deep side part. Adir recommends following the arch of your brow to choose where to part your hair. He then took a large FEKKAI ROUND BRUSH and blow-dried the hair completely straight, making sure the roots were flat. Then spray with FEKKAI SHEER HOLD HAIRSPRAY to 2” sections of hair from roots to the end and use a flat iron to get a bone straight effect. To finish the look, Abergel took a 1 1/4” inch curling iron and lightly curled the ends of the hair for a nice slight wave and tucked the bangs behind the ear. To complete the look he added the FEKKAI SILKY STRAIGHT IRONLESS SMOOTH FINISH SERUM to create a sleek finish.

Love it or hate it?

See the dress!

  25. Sonja

    How stunning. And I love the softer eyes on the women this year. Especially those over 40. It just looks so much more youthful. Beautiful.

  27. Kate

    I thought she looked stunning. On stage the lighting made the dress too flashy for my taste, but still love the dress. I would have loved it if she’s worn her hair up.

  28. Marissa

    Simply beautiful. I love her, and she always looks so classy and elegant.

  29. I love this dress and everything that she has on from head to toe! I like that she adds a pop of color to her lips.

  30. And the winner is…..:) It’s something that I don’t like about her look, I think her hair color is to dark and the dress is way to shiny for her, makes her look pale. :D

  31. jesa

    as beautiful as she is…i think she could have used a bit of of the sun – i think it would have made her fantastic dress stand out even more
