John Frieda Debuts Own Color Foam At-Home Product With Katie Holmes As New Face

John Frieda has a super hair products company. And this evening, he is debuting a new, at-home foam hair color line.

Okay, so the master is a bit late for the at-home permanent color foam party, that's been going on since Samy introduced their own Fat Foam product in Walmart stores last October. And then Clairol went public with their Nice 'n Easy Color Blend Foam last February.

That's alright. John Frieda has actress Katie Holmes on board with his Precision Foam Colour. And the duo is about to make some major Beauty news tonight at NYC's Lavo nightclub, with the premier of a clever short film introducing his no-drip at-home foam hair color line. This is a red carpet event, and we're wondering if hubby Tom Cruise and daughter Suri will be there to cheer mama Katie on.

Remember when Keira Knightley made a great short film for Chanel's Coco Mademoiselle? Well, these days, it's not unusual for big beauty companies to go Hollywood to promote a brand new product.

Katie Holmes and her healthy hair look gorgeous in the short film for Precision Foam Colour. We would never have coupled Katie with John Frieda. We just didn't think she had the glam....but boy, were we wrong!

The short film is called, 'The Decision.' And the mini-movie tells the story of Joan Hudson (Katie Holmes), a high-profile actress who makes the choice to leave her colorist and color her own hair at-home.

Check out some wonderful clips from 'The Decision,' here.

Will You 'Color-Block' Your New Spring Wardrobe In Notice-Me Bright Hues?!

Bright bursts of color combos. That's what color-block style is. And it's HOT for Spring 2011!

From must-have shoes to dresses and bags, notice-me colors are all the rage.

And all it takes is one smart piece to give your wardrobe a fresh, trendy pop.

We're looking today, at the Nine West Stylin' leather sandal ($89, at ninewest.com). This beauty features a 4 1/2" heel and 1/2" platform and comes in Dark Pink-Orange, Yellow-Green, and Black-Natural.

To wear color-block, you have to be fearless. That is.....you must love and feel comfortable putting some funky shades together. We're talking vibrant jewel tones like magenta/emerald green. Or purple/yellow/sapphire. Anything goes, and if you over-do the color-blocking, well, it can be a bit much, or a bit too loud.

In our humble opinion....we know color-block is big this season, but we aren't wild about the trend, although, we DO like the Nine West sandal here, just give us the black/natural ones.

Hey, we don't even like wearing prints. But if you love accessorizing with beautiful bursts of color, then this is your season!

By the way, you can pre-order the Stylin' sandals now, and these will ship by 4/26

We've said this before:

You've got2b crazy, not to fall in love with this edgy hair styling line.

Got2b from the Schwarzkopf hair company is one incredible hair care line! There are so-ooooo many styling products, you couldn't even scratch the surface. The best thing, the products are reasonably priced and you can find them at your local drugstore. And most importantly, got2b makes some amazingly tough hair products.

Just when we thought the hair geniuses at Schwarzkopf might have run out of any new hair product creations, boy---were we wrong!

We just learned about this one for added VOLUME!! got2b Powder'ful Volumizing Styling Powder ($5.99, just arriving at drugstores now). It's made for use on dry hair. Just sprinkle powder in, and you're 10 seconds away from BIG HAIR. NO Blow-drying!

The styling powders contain special micro-particles that directly boost the hair at the base, without blow drying, and give hair immediate extra volume and hold. And it works on really long hair to really cropped pixie dos.

We are so tired of using wet spray volumizers, that this new got2b Powder'ful Volumizing Styling Powder might give even better results. A definite beauty buy on our short shopping list.

Tinsley Mortimer is said to be a big fan of Powder'ful, and she has great hair.

Fergie (Is that Really You?) Gives Amazing American Idol Performance

Fergie, was that really you?

Everyone's been buzzing about the sexy singer and how very different she looks now. Has she had plastic surgery?! Or some cosmetic injections?

The Black Eyed Peas performed their new hit "Just Can’t Get Enough" on American Idol's results show Thursday night, and Fergie didn't look like, well, Fergie.

Five years ago, Fergie was constantly being asked if she had succumbed to the plastic surgery knife, and back then, she released this statement:

"One of those magazines says I’ve had a nose job and an eyebrow job which is completely untrue," Fergie explained. "Personally, I see a therapist. It is hard, it hurts my feelings. I call my hypnotherapist and cry and let it go. That’s what I do. I think they they nitpick these days so much and it’s just got to the point where it’s ridiculous."

It must be tough for famous women, especially, in Hollywood. Beautiful celebrities seem to be fixing up everything....from perfect teeth to perfect noses to perfect hair and so much more. The standard of beauty is impossibly high, and the pressure to look perfect is extreme.

There is chatter that Fergie just got bigger breast implants, and that she just got a new nose and another eyebrow lift.

We're not sure what she has done, but she looks lovely. Her features look softer. Her eyebrows appear lighter and thinner. Maybe that's it. But she did look different to us on Thursday night, so much so, that we thought she had a stand-in. But when she opened her mouth to sing, there was no denying.....that was indeed, Fergie, and her amazing vocals.

Warm Up Your Complexion: Sonia Kashuk Spring Awakenings Face Palette

This Sunday, March 20th, marks a special moment----the first day of spring!!

It's been a very long-gggg, cold-dddd winter.

Haven't you had enough? We have. So, let's bring on warmer, sunnier days ahead with a beauty budget buy:

Sonia Kashuk's Spring Awakenings Face Palette ($24.99, at Target).

We like this adorable all-in-one face painting kit. And here's why:

1. It's so darn convenient. Everything you need is right in one little container. Easy to throw into your bag. And it's slim and sleek and designed with a cute wicker cover.

2.The colors are chosen for you. You don't have to see what goes with what. It's all there....a natural glow for the eyes, cheeks, and lips. You get 4 eye shadows---matte tan, matte chocolate, metallic bronze and sparkling champagne, a deep brown eye liner, coral blush, and 3 lip glosses---nude, cocoa, and rosewood.

3. Sonia Kashuk is one of model Cindy Crawford's favorite makeup artists. And as we like to say, if Sonia's makeup is good enough for Cindy, then it's good enough for us. We think the Spring Awakenings Face Palette is a great beauty budget buy. You get pretty earthy shades that aren't overdone, and perfect for the girl-on-the-go!

Here's what Cindy Crawford wears for her daily makeup routine. And it's very similar to the Sonia Kashuk makeup palette we talking about:

1. Brown eye shadow. Cindy Crawford says that brown is your best friend. "It's less harsh than black, it goes with everything, and it's impossible to mess up. For day, I do variations of brown shadow, either matte or shimmer."

2. Nude lips. Yes, the look is very polished when you can nail the right tone. "A neutral mouth looks really sophisticated, but you have to pick your color carefully so you don't look washed out. I like beigy pinks that are one shade darker than my natural skin tone. I almost always wear gloss, and save lipstick for special occasions."
