Powder Room Recent Brides!

Tuesday, June 15th, 2010

Elizabeth Owens was married on the 1st May, and looked so gorgeous! Elizabeth was inspired by Portia De Rossi’s Wedding hair.


We created a modern, soft  and romantic updo to compliment her stunning Vera Wang gown.  Fresh radiant glowing flawless skin and lots of lashes are the key to this look.  Lip colour our very own favourite “Miss Amour”. Photography by Ben Clark.

Golden Globes 2010 Hair & Make up

Monday, February 1st, 2010

The Award season is upon us, which means lots of celebrity spotting and gorgeous red carpet hair and make up to revel in!!  The hair seemed to be more casual and less done this year at the Golden Globes. We are finding that hair for Weddings is more relaxed then ever before. To achieve this softer look we always ask our brides if they would prefer the styles to be sprayed a lot initially or sprayed so that it looks nice and soft and then to have a can of spray on hand and to touch up during the day.

This year at the Golden Globes we saw hair that was soft and chic with sculpted waves and soft voluminous updos. Rose Byrnes waves were picture perfect, adding a modern edge with her vintage hair clip. Check out
Powder Room’s store for gorgeous jewellery to accessorise.  Julia Roberts blonde boho waves were soft and relaxed.  We also loved Cameron Diaz’s sleek upstyle, softly pulled back off the face to emphasis her striking red lips.

Sandra Bullock Wavy updo looked relaxed and soft. The side part is undone and blends into the side waves. Sandra’s make up had flushed cheeks and soft sultry purples and defined liner on the eyes really worked well with her gorgeous dress.


Nicole Kidman’s natural auburn hair colour was amazing against her porcelain complexion.  Her hair was swept into a side chignon exuding hollywood glamour and the look showed that even the movie stars have a few bits that fall out of their hairstyles, making the look more natural.


As for Jennifer Anniston, come on, can’t you think of another hairstyle choice, it’s the same every year!!  Courtney Cox, on the other hand looked amazing!!  The loose undo, with a centre part and long undone tendrils really showed up Courtney’s eyes.


Gone were the smokey, sultry eyes this year, replaced with soft, subtle, pale shimmering tones, paired with a perfect pink pout. Looks we loved were Kare Hudson, Marion Cotillard, Drew Barrymore and Emily Blunt.
