GIULIANA RANCIC'S RED CARPET BEAUTY

Giuliana Rancic

There were so many beautiful faces shining on tonight’s 84th Annual Oscars red carpet. Giuliana Rancic, co-host of “Live on the Red Carpet,” stunned with a gorgeous fresh faced, glowing look. Walking the Oscars Red Carpet without foundation for the second year in a row, Giuliana proved that glowing, healthy skin is in. Before Giuliana walked the red carpet we chatted with hair and makeup artist Catalina Su to find out how Giuliana created her gorgeous fresh faced look.


Prior to the big day, Giuliana prepped her skin with DDF’s Amplifying Elixir and Wrinkle Resist plus Pore Minimizer and used the Revolve 400X Micro-Polishing System twice a week to polish away imperfections, making her skin look absolutely incredible without foundation.



Tonight, Giuliana wore DDF’s Weightless Defense SPF 45+ to protect her skin under the sun in addition to MAC’s Studio Moisture Tint. Tom Ford Beauty Extreme Mascara and Bobbi Brown Long Wear Gel Liner in Black Ink finished off Giuliana’s brown eyes and a touch of Chanel Espiegle Blush and MAC Fresh Honey Blush were applied to her cheeks. The fresh look was completed with MAC Viva Glam Lipstick giving the perfect pop of color.
