Backstage Beauty Tips From 2009 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show

One sexy, lingerie show was going on last night at the Lexington Armory in New York City. Need we say more?

You know the models.....Heidi Klum, Selita Ebanks, Miranda Kerr, and several other recognizable tall, slender beauties walked the runway at the 2009 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show (photos by Bauer Griffin).

And the look was, well, sexy. That's a given. But we also liked the soft look. The models were gliding down the cat walk with lots of wavy, touseled hair. And hair extensions were used to achieve the volume and mass of softness.

You can get this great hair look by using products from the Victoria's Secret So Sexy Hair line. We like the So Sexy Root-Lift Volumizing Spray ($13, 3/$24). This root-lift gives hair body, volume, and strength with silk amino acids. Take a curling iron and create some soft, sexy waves.

We were really attracted to the pretty, natural makeup for last night's 2009 VS Fashion Show. Sure, the smoky eye was still framing the models' mascared eyes, but in a much less dramatic way.

According to an article today by StyleList, VS makeup artist Tom Pecheux, was going for glam makeup with a subtle twist.

"With a lot of new girls on the runway this season, I wanted to make it fresh," Tom Pecheux say. "Nothing dramatic...extremely sexy and beautiful. When a lot of the body is showing, you don't want the face to appear made up."

We appalud Tom Pecheux. We think he hit the right mark with a few faux lashes at the outside corners to create a softer, smoky eye, and a light gray eyeshadow to enhance the overall look.

Tom also dusted pink shimmer all over the face for a healthy glow. And those lips. All the models smiled brighter with delicate shades of pink lipstick. Check out Victoria Secret's new VS Makeup collection, Perfect Lipstick ($12). A rich and creamy, long-lasting formula.

Top it off with VS' Lip Lacquer, also from the new VS Makeup collection ($10). This little gloss delivers high shine and full coverage. Wear alone, or over VS' Perfect Lipstick. We love their Babydoll Pink shade.


You can catch all the sexy, soft glitz and glamour with Heidi Klum and the gals on December 1st at the 2009 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show televised on CBS.

I think you have made some good points. The never changing hairstyle is just screaming that you have surrendered to dowdy. Too heavy base make up settles in fine lines and dark lipstick that bleeds is just awful. Listen up ladies . We have earned each wrinkle and have become wiser for this lesson.
