American Idol Alumni, Katharine McPhee has returned to her dark locks. After transforming herself into a platinum blonde last August for her album Unbroken, McPhee went back to brunette two days before her 26th birthday on March 26th. She’ll play a brown haired girl-next-door pharmaceutical rep in the NBC comedy pilot The Pink House, which starts shooting this month.
“It’s always nice to have a reason to go back,” McPhee tells BSW of the change, which is a rich shade of brown that’s a little lighter than her natural color. “I loved having blonde hair–it’s so much fun.” But there’s one thing McPhee won’t miss: “Blonde was pretty hard on my hair,” she admits. “I guess my hair is thanking me now!” You betcha it is! We were not fans of this color at all, and are so happy to see her back as a brunette. BSW wants to know: Which color do you like on Katharine?
While promoting her newest flick, The Runaways, Dakota Fanning sported sexy Cat Eyes, and for a moment we actually forgot how young she still is. With just a sweep of thick top cat eyeliner, Dakota Fanning revitalized a classic look for spring, and made it her own. Pairing it with glossy peach lips, and only a touch of peach blush, she was fresh, and youthful without looking overdone. If you’ve had the urge to play with a shadow, or gel liner and try something different for spring, this is your cue.
To get Dakota’s eyeliner, or a tight line around the eyes, try beth bender beauty’s Get in Line Eyeliner Kitand stencils to create any of these looks with ease. Create any thickness your desire just by placing the stencil above or below the lashline. If you prefer a liner that stays put, you can go over your eyeshadow with a gel liner as seen here on Dakota. Check out the BFF Eyeliner Kitand Onyx Stay Put Gel Liner, both from beth bender beauty.

As Bella Swan in the Twilight saga, Kristen Stewart kept her look simple and very girl-next-door. Her role as Joan Jett in The Runaways, however, is a different story, and she’s taking quite a different approach.
Take the hot pink lip color she was wearing at the movie’s premiere in New York City. To get Kristen’s look, celebrity makeup artist Beth Bender suggests blending a champagne and Gunmetal metallic shadow around the eyes, and contouring the face with a pearlescent shimmer before adding the finishing touch. “A rosy stain blended on the cheeks and lips kicks this look into rockstar worthy,” said Bender. Try Delicious XXX Lusicious Lips in Hot Pink.
The effect? A modern version of ’70s glam, and one that Joan Jett would definitely approve of.

Most of the time Jennifer Aniston’s makeup is simple and chic with a golden glow that needs nothing more than a little lip gloss and eyeliner, but at the London premiere of The Bounty Hunter, she turned up her red carpet look a notch with a soft shimmery shadow.
To get Jen’s new look, celebrity makeup artistBeth Bendersuggests rimming your eyes with a black waterproof liner first, and then topping it with a grayish-silver shadow. This will give you color without covering the entire eyelid for a lush, and unfussed effect. Finish with 2 coats of your favorite lengthening, and thickening mascara in black, and off you go.
