Complexions were luminous and eyes were smoky at the Red Carter fashion show during Mercedez-Benz Fashion Week Swim in Miami. Makeup artists from Tinte Cosmetics created the natural look using Shimmering Face Pearls on face and cheeks, the Natural Beauty and Smoky Eyes Matchbook Kits on eyes and the Cream Soda lip color from the Painted Lady kit for a sexy sheer lip.

“Get that hair out of your face!” My mother’s words to my preteen self reverberated in my mind as I watched model after model take to the runway at Haute Couture Fashion Week with her hair in her eyes.

Above, models at Chanel peer at photographers through artfully mussed manes. Perhaps the hair was intended to be just that – a lion’s mane, as the runway featured an enormous bronze lion. See more of Chanel’s haute hair below, where model Dorothea Barth Jordensen is seen backstage and on the runway.

It wasn’t just Karl Lagerfeld’s girls who sported the look, either. Hair was similarly in the face at Armani Prive, though in a decidedly more polished style.

I have a hard enough time not putting my freshly straightened hair behind my ears as it is. I could never put up with my hair in my face. Would you wear this purposefully imperfect style?

Does warmer weather give you the urge to see your stylist for more than your six-week trim? Well these celebrities seem to have gotten the itch for a switch as well. Cate Blanchett debuted her new asymmetrical do at the Tony Awards last week. One side is cut closely to her head shape while the other sweeps over her face – it’s sort of a safer version of Rihanna’s shorn on one side look. But it’s still pretty edgy.

A little more romantic is Michelle William’s new cut from Cannes, seen at right. This is actually a little longer than the pixies Michelle has sported in the past, length at the top keeps some soft and breezy layers for her to play with. The soft platinum color is perfect, too. I think this is a great picture to take to your stylist if you’re thinking of cutting your hair short. Make sure the sideswept bangs hit at just the right spot to accent your cheekbones.

The heat certainly hit early this year, so you may already be sick of that summer hairstyling staple – the ponytail. Here are a few twists (literal and figurative) to keep the look fresh.

The Rope Braid

Bumble and Bumble created the rope braid at left for the Emanuel Ungaro. First slick hair down and smooth into a ponytail. Then create two sections and twist them together securing with bobby pins and a hair elastic.

Messy Textured Pony

The messy textured look worn high is from the Nasty Gal online catalog and features texturized hair secured with an elastic. A piece of hair is then wrapped around the elastic to cover the band and secured with a bobby pin.

Messy Low Pony

Another texturized low ponytail showed up in the J. Crew lookbook. This is created in much the same way as the textured pony above, just worn low so it’s a lot easier to pull off. Pull out a few pieces around your hairline to go with the textured vibe.

Walking the runways of Givenchy, Chanel and Calvin Klein and starring in ads for Gianfranco Ferre and Salvatore Ferragamo, you know Dree Hemingway’s a girl to watch. But we’d also love to look in her makeup bag, as did Style.com, which revealed the products the model totes around.

We love the beach, and love what it does to our hair while we’re there. But the damage it can cause long term? Not loving it. So, here’s some ways to beach proof your hair this summer! Keep these products and tips in mind for other sun-drenched activities as well.

Water resistant products for your hair are a lot harder to find than those for your skin, so be sure to stock up on KMS California sol perfection beach protectant. The water-resistant beach styling creme contains a UV filter and antioxidants to help protect hair.

After you’ve taken a dip in the ocean, comb out hair with KMS California sol perfection all day defense. The light-weight, leaving in conditioner will help detangle your salty sandy locks and keep it hydrated. Comb it out while wet and then just scrunch it up and let the sun and breeze dry it into those beachy waves we all love.

For colored hair, the products I swear by are the Redken UV Protection line. There’s a shampoo, conditioner and a shimmering leave-in conditioner. After getting my highlights in the summer I use these products religiously to keep them from fading or turning brassy.

We’re not quite sure why Scarlett Johansson was invited to the annual White House Correspondents’ dinner in Washington, D.C., but we do know that she was probably the most glamorous guest there!

To get the look, NARS makeup artist Fabiola played up Johansson’s natural beauty with heavily lined eyes and the perfect color. She began with Pro-Prime Eyeshadow Base underneath of the Alahambra Eyeshadow Duo and Bali Single Eyeshadow. Her complexion was played up with NARS’ famous Orgasm blush, and the lippie was Chihuahua Lip Gloss.
