How To Achieve A Red Carpet Look With COVERGIRL and Pantene (And A Beauty Giveaway For You!)

It's mid-February and that means we're in the middle of awards season. It's always fun getting ready to head out onto the red carpet, and... wait. I mean, it's alway fun to imagine we're rocking the red carpet and being interviewed about what designer we're wearing. Even if we're not on the red carpet, we can easily achieve a red carpet look effortlessly at home. Without a team of hair stylists, and make-up artists, even. The secret? COVERGIRL and Pantene. 



Here are some tips on how you can achieve a truly glamorous look for a night out, even if it's not on the red carpet.

Once you've got your outfit planned (little black dress and a killer pair of heels, or a cute top and jeans always works!) try these beauty tips to make yourself simply gorgeous:

Ace that bace: Want glowing skin? Start with a base. Moisturize, every day, and every night. (And I don't want to hear any excuses for not washing your make-up off before bed! None!) After you moisturize, apply a primer so your make-up will last and last all night long. The TruBlend Primer is great because it concentrates on both the skin texture and the skin typeā€”these formulas work with skin to help create a flawless canvas. Next, apply the TruBlend Liquid Foundation to cover up any skin imperfections. Beautiful, baby!



Bronze on: Say goodbye to winter blues and dull skin by using TruBlend Blush and Bronzer to contour your face and get a natural sun-kissed glow. You'll look like you just got back from somewhere warm and tropical.


Highlight your eyes: I love eye shadow palettes that have all my favourite colours together. It makes applying my eye make-up easier. I love the natural tones of the COVERGIRL trunaked shadow palettes. You can have fun mixing and matching the colours, and no matter what, you'll achieve a nice look, whether you're going for a matte or shimmery finish. You can even achieve a killer smoky eye look, too, with the trunaked eyeliner duos.



Lip service: For truly kissable lips, you need lips that are moisturized and soft. The new Oh Sugar! Moisturizing Lip Treatment delivers instant moisture, and contains grapeseed oil, avocado butter, and vitamins C and E. It comes in ten shades of lightweight colour and it's the perfect lip gloss to wear all winter long. 


Let your hair bounce: Hair should be soft and bouncyā€”natural looking, not stiff and over-processed. Pantene's Airspray is alcohol free, has a delicious scent, and locks in your hair style without making it feel dry. 


I have tried (and LOVE!) all these products, and now I'd love for you to try them, too. I know you'll love them as much as I do. 

I'm giving away a Red Carpet Ready Bundle valued at $85 that includes: 

Oh Sugar! Moisturizing Lip Treatment
trunaked Shadow Palettes 
trunaked Waterproof Eyeliner duos
TruBlend Primer
TruBlend Foundation
