Britney Spears @ 52nd Grammy Awards

I’m going to pretend she’s wearing something way better, but she looks pretty otherwise (well, the blush could use some buffing!), and I do love her hair styled like that!

Kesha @ 52nd Grammy Awards

I kind of dug the dress, at least the color, but I am a sucker for golds.  Wonder what glitter product they used on her eyes!

Ciara @ 52nd Grammy Awards

Love her look — it’s soft, natural, and classy (not that the dress fits any of those descriptors!).

Makeup How-to & Breakdown

Yolanda Frederick, makeup artist, gives us the lowdown…

For Ciara’s Grammy red carpet look, I prepped the face with shu uemura’s new UV Under Base Fluid in Medium Beige. I then followed up with shu uemura’s Nobara Cream Cover Stick foundation in 524 for a flawless golden finish. In order to complement Ciara’s stunning Givenchy enseChristine mble, we decided to go with a flirty lash and lots of shu uemura’s Ultimate Mascara in Black to frame the eye. For cheeks, I used shu uemura’s Glow On blush in M Amber 89 and highlighted with Lancôme’s Model Mocha Cream Shimmer for more drama! For a perfect lip, I lined ever so lightly with shu uemura’s Drawing Lip Pencil in Brown 710 then topped it off with shu uemura’s creamy nude Rouge Unlimited lipstick in BG 940M. I then wanted to highlight the center of the lip with a shimmery gloss, so I applied shu uemura’s Gloss Unlimited in BG 980N for that extra pop!

Jennifer Lopez @ 2010 52nd Grammy Awards

Love the shoes, and I like the look from afar!  Her hair looks rather short for her, but maybe it’s just because of the waves.
