Never Mind The Bullocks
"Did I really earn this, or did I just wear you all down?"
Makeup Artist: Angela Levin
Beauty Inspiration:
"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."
Beauty Tip:
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.
Dress: Marchesa
Description: A silver beaded column gown with embroidered illusion bodice
Interesting tidbit: The dress was picked out by Sandra Bullock's oldest stepdaughter.
Hair: OMG....how AMAZING was Sandra Bullocks hair! I dream of having my hair that well behaved and healthy.
Her hair was the result of Fekkai products. I will need to revisit the line after this.
HAIR INSPIRATION:
Adir 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.
HOW TO GET THE LOOK: 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.

Stunning Post!!! I thought Sandra Bullock was the best dressed of the night! Her makeup and hair were gorgeous!!! Perfection!
I LOVE Marchesa! Some things are a miss for me, but generally 90% is a go go go, and this dress looks great.
And I fully agree on the healthy hair envy. Really nice and polished.
Interestingly, her lips look hot pink in just about every pic I've seen, not red! Love, love that dress though. Marchesa does old-Hollywood style dresses like no one else.
Sandra looked so gorgeous that night. Even better in that dress than the model.
