No detail goes untouched at fashion week, which means that more often than not, you will find a selection of amazing manicures. This season, our two favorite manicures come courtesy of CND, which created looks for Jen Kao (left) and Norman Ambrose (right). At Jen Kao, Wanda Ruiz created the “Lethal Love” manicure using CND Nail Color in Midnight Sapphire, Anchor Blue, Rouge Red, and Green Scene. Once the nail had set, Ruiz airbrushed a coat of Inkwell onto the top of each nail, resulting in an ombre effect. At Norman Ambrose, Candice Manacchio used CND Nail Color in Flashpoint to create a vintage-inspired nail, before adding Sheer 24K Sparkle Effect to the tip, resulting in an “iced” effect. So, do you like these nails? More importantly, would you wear these nails?

It is no secret that Anne Hathaway always looks amazing on the red carpet, so we weren’t surprised to see her turn out yet another gorgeous look—namely, an Alexander McQueen dress—for the New York premiere of One Day. But what about her beauty look? Chanel makeup artist Kate Lee put together a sultry look for the event that added a hint of mystery to her glamorous ensemble. Here is the scoop on how to get Anne’s subtly sexy beauty look.
To start, Lee used a sponge to apply Chanel Perfection Lumière Long-Wear Flawless Fluid Makeup SPF 10, which arrives in October, across Anne’s face. She then defined Anne’s cheekbones using a medium Kevyn Aucoin Sculpting Powder in Medium ($42). To finish, she applied a light coat of Chanel Rouge Coco Shine Hydrating Sheer Lipshine in Fetiche ($32) on the lips.
On the eyes, Lee applied Burberry Sheer Eyeshadow in Antique Rose ($29), before drawing a thin line with Chanel Le Crayon Khôl Intense Eye Pencil in Noir ($28) across the base of the lashes and inside the waterline. Then, across the top of each lid, Lee applied Chanel Illusion D’Ombre Long Wear Luminous Eyeshadow in Mirifique ($36) with a small natural fiber brush. Finally, Lee curled the lashes with the Chanel Recourbe Cils De Chanel Precision Eyelash Curler ($34) and then applied a few coats of Chanel Inimitable Intense Mascara in Noir ($30).

True Grit actress Hailee Steinfeld looked gorgeous at the premiere of Miu Miu’s short film, Muta, in Beverly Hills on Tuesday. We loved her blush-colored Miu Miu dress and matching heels, but we also loved her beauty look, which was created for her by makeup artist Fiona Stiles. If you loved Hailee’s beauty look, read on for all the need-to-know details on how to recreate this look at home.
On the skin, Fiona used a mix of Jouer Luminizing Moisture Tint in Pearl ($38) and Koh Gen Do Maifanshi Moisture Foundation in #023 ($62). Then, she applied NARS Multiple Bronzer in Tuomota (sold out) to the apples for an understated glow.
On the eyes, Fiona used a blend of two different eye shadows: CoverGirl Intense Shadow Blast in Brown Bling ($7.99) and Chanel Ombre D’eau in Source ($32). Fiona then highlighted each eye by creating a subtle cat-eye using Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner in Black Ink ($21) at the top and bottom corners, followed by NARS Duo Eyeshadow in Caravaggio ($33) to soften the line. To soften Hailee’s strong brows, Fiona applied Anastasia Brow Gel ($21) using Eco Tools Lash & Brow Groomer ($3.99).
Finally, Fiona applied a dash of Ellis Faas Creamy Lips in #L108 ($35) to the lips.

Kristen Stewart may be known for her low-key off-duty look, but when it comes to the red carpet, she always knows how to turn up the glam factor. Last week, Kristen attended the premiere of A Better Life at the Los Angeles Film Festival. While she stayed true to her unfussy style on this occasion by wearing a plain black tee and jeans, she put together a glamorous beauty look with a little help from makeup artist Fiona Stiles. Read on for the scoop on how they created her smoky violet eyes.
According to Stiles, they started off with clean, moisturized skin and then, using a synthetic brush, swiped on CoverGirl’s NatureLuxe Silk Foundation in Chamois ($11.99), blending it with a damp sponge for sheer coverage. Then, they applied a light coat of CoverGirl’s Professional Loose Powder in Translucent Light ($5.99) to set the foundation. To finish, Stiles applied CoverGirl’s Cheekers Blush in Natural Rose ($3.99) to the cheeks.
