Eva Longoria dresses up for Halloween - I'm Not Obsessed!
Happy Halloween people! I'm not one to dress up, but to join in the festives, I'm going to blog about the 'corpse look', which is interestingly also one of the FW06 beauty trend. What is the 'corpse look'? Basically, it's super pale skin, pale lips and light brown eye-shadow. The 'corpse look' as seen on the FW06 runway:
Marni had the best corpse look. Tanya (first picture above) totally rocked this look.
Vera Wang had the more elegant (if that's possible) corpse look. The models have a bit of purple eye-shadow on instead of only brown. Oh, having that Eastern European/ Russian face really helps to achieve this look. But since we can't control that, you could just apply very pale powder onto your face, (but not too much or else you'll look caked!)
The corpse look is actually a variation of this season's popular brown eye-shadow look. This Bobbi Brown chocolate palette is perfect to achieve this look. Make sure whatever eye-shadow you use is matte (no shimmer.) Apply the eye-shadow on the eyelids, and a tiny bit along the lower lashes. To make your lips pale, apply a bit of foundation and nude or whitish-pink lip stick. Do not use lip gloss since well, the corpse look isn't meant to be glossy or cheerful.This look is a very runway, couture-ish look, so what better time to play with it than Halloween? Besides, it's always nice to look elegant while endulging in childish fun.So, what are you dressed up as today?
The Paramount exec who fired Tom Cruise in August speaks out in the December issue of Vanity Fair about his decision. Sumner Redstone admists his wife Paula who convinced him to sever the relationship, and says, "He was embarrassing the studio. And he was costing us a lot of money.... Paula, like women everywhere, had come to hate him. The truth of the matter is, I did listen to her... His behavior was entirely unacceptable to Paula and to the rest of the world. He didn't just turn one [woman] off. He turned off all women, and a lot of men." The Paramount exec says it was a culmination of Cruise's antics - including the couch-jumping Oprah interview and psychiatry-slamming argument on the Today Show - that turned the tables on the actor's career. "When did I decide [to fire him]? I don't know. When he was on the Today Show? When he was jumping on the couch at Oprah? He changed his handler, you know, to his sister - not a good idea." Redstone thinks Cruise's behavior cost Paramount somewhere between $100 million to $150 million, and that his severing his relationship with the Mission: Impossible actor was a good lesson for Hollywood. "The explosion was good," he says. "It sent a message to the rest of the world that the time of the big star getting all this money is over. And it is! I would like to think that what I did, or what we did, has had a salutary effect on the rest of the industry."
