What makes the celebrities looks most notable? Notable makeup is one look which settles in within the boundaries of the average. Meaning, there is no going overboard or going under board. Additionally, the makeup perfectly complements the facial features and the skin tone of the wearer making it more of a part of the face rather than an add-on.

Variations in makeup products have come in trends and are widely available in forms suitable to almost all skin types. To guide you through looking fabulous without going beyond what is expected; here are some inspirational thoughts from loved and critiqued styles of some famous stars.

The star, Kim Kardashian, has always looked glamorous as a public figure. Her markedly good body and chic get-ups make her a good prospect to investigate. Her makeup has always showed the feminine side of a woman – gentle, sophisticated and elegant. If you thing the bold colors will suit you best, don’t hesitate – jump for it. In relation to the New Year’s new trends in makeup set-ups, Kim have chosen favorable colors and hues during a red carpet even which specially emphasized beautiful features of her face without having one overpowering the other. She took the liberty of enhancing her eyes and bon structure. Use of foundation is particularly important here as it will serve as a base for flawless look. Plum eye shadows, false eyelashes and a finish of bronzer blush and nude colored lipstick wrap the whole thing up. It’s a good getaway from the too conventional bold and too conservative neutral.

Carrie Underwood looks fresh all the time regardless of the hectic schedules. Hers is a good example of natural beauty. She is the perfect muse for women at all age brackets. The fresh look is perfect for both a day’s work and a night’s out because of the fact that only the right features are brought out. Creating a flawless complexion using a foundation or a translucent powder can do the trick. Tints of blush on the cheeks with subtle eye liner pencils and black mascara bring about a good façade for the eyes. Finish the makeup with a coral lip gloss and you are good to go for a day or a night’s out.

Spotlight is on Lala during the Critics Choice Award just this 2011. The vintage and retro panorama she brought in a formal event came to be apt by that time. The glam and the chic veneer she put up is one thing to note. The makeup placed accents on the best focal features – lips, cheeks and eyes. The cheekbones were tinted with bronze blush and shimmering eye shadow captured the eyes best set-up. Finishing the look is a glossy lip shimmer.

Sheer beauty defined Keri Hilson’s makeup choice during the 2011 Critic’s Choice Awards. The makeup was purely discreet being available for both daytime and night time activities. It gives women a chance to stand out using their natural beauties. The delicate, radiant look made using shimmering makeup sets gave Keri a youthful and standout look. It creates a flawless look which gives the cheeks a healthy flush and a soft pink blush. Liquid eyeliner and mascara outlined the eyes and added elegance to the makeup. The pink nude lipstick adds flawlessness to the features. If you think this makeup is perfect for you, then, head on to the nearest cosmetic shop and buy the things you will need.

The unstoppable musical force that is Beyonce Knowles dropped by ‘Good Morning America’ earlier today to promote her new album, “4.”

The songstress performed as part of the GMA Summer Concert Series as she whipped fans into a frenzy with her energetic show.

She beamed a brilliantly as the sunshine in New York City wearing a canary yellow custom Julien Macdonald web-like crochet dress with a fringed skirt.

The gorgeous dress was paired with Stuart Weitzman gold stripe Swarovski crystal ‘Ventipave’ pumps and Lorraine Schwartz yellow gold, diamond and milky emerald earrings.

Sienna Miller and her new beau Tom Sturridge were spotted out on a beer run in Chicago yesterday.

Her street style is always interesting to watch.

On this occasion the British actress wore an affordable Tucker mini dress.

The wide-neck print silk dress with short dolman sleeves was paired with Oliver Peoples Gregory Peck rose tinted sunglasses, black patent ballerina flats and a blue suede Gucci shoulder bag.

This is a lovely combination of affordable and high end pieces.

Spanish model Eugenia Silva attended the Elle Awards 25th Anniversary last night in Madrid, Spain looking absolutely stunning in this electric blue Armani Privé Spring 2011 gown.

The architectural one-shouldered gown features a cut-out on the side which reveals a gorgeous sequined bodice.

As if her gown wasn’t incredible enough, Eugenia added some amazing accessories which took her look up several notches.

Her stunning Armani Privé fuchsia heels and matching perspex clutch with contrast purple leather panel, were the perfect accessories to add to this bright, bold look.

Two diamond bracelets contributed yet more dazzle to her look, as she opted to wear her hair in a super chic centre-part bun whilst smoky eyes completed her look.

This is without a doubt a beautiful look which Eugenia styled perfectly.

A well worthy BDOTW contender.

Leighton Meester stole our hearts when she took to the red carpet to attend the 14th Annual Hollywood Awards Gala in this stunning Elie Saab Spring 2011 powder blue dress back in October.

The actress looked incredible in her tulle cocktail dress which features subtle sequin detailing and a thin satin ribbon tied into a delicate bow around the waist. She was the first celebrity to wear a look from this beautiful collection.

Leighton played up the sweetness of the dress by pairing it with matching baby blue suede heels from the same collection plus a glitter-embellished Jimmy Choo ‘Candy’ clutch.

She wore her hair in a pretty up-do with a few strands of loose curls left out and kept her makeup soft, wearing a coral shade of lipstick.

Astrid Munoz wore the same dress to attend the ELLE Awards 25th Anniversary in Madrid, Spain last night.

The Puerto-Rican model took a decidedly different approach, wearing her hair in a centre-part bun and pairing the dress with electric blue Charlotte Olympia ‘Paloma’ platform pumps and an oversized cocktail ring and statement earrings.

It’s hard to top Leighton in this dress considering how lovely she looks, but she wins for me because I think Astrid’s hairstyle is too severe for such a sweet dress and definitely think her shoes were the too stark in contrast to her soft delicate dress.

Leighton worked this pretty, lady-like look perfectly and therefore wins by a long mile.
