Get Katy Perry’s Pink Pout For £4!
Katy Perry was really working the orange carpet at the Nickelodeon Kid’s Choice Awards – she rocked up with blue hair, a green outfit and a hot pink pout! It may sound like a colour-clash, but Ms Perry pulled it off.
Even with all that colour going on, it was her bright pink lippy that had our beauty dials in a spin. A fuchsia pink lip is a fab way to add a pop of colour to your everyday make-up, and don’t worry, you don’t have to team it with blue hair to look amazing. We love Avon Ultra Colour Rich Mega Impact Lipstick in Fuchsia Fun, it’s rich, creamy and helps to make your lips look fuller, but the best part is until the 18 April you can bag it for less than half price – it’s down from £8.50 to £4. Time to start stockpiling! VJ

Twilight's Ashley Greene Smoulders In Retro Fashion
WOW! We thought we’d stepped back in time to Hollywood’s fashion-savvy golden era when we saw these glamorous pictures of actress Ashley Greene this morning. The Twilight star looked like a modern-day Rita Hayworth at an Avon gala in New York, as she shimmered in a sapphire one-shoulder dress. Of course, no old Hollywood homage would be complete without tumbling locks set into sleek waves and the Avon poster girl's rich chocolate locks more than cut the mustard. Kristen Stewart had better watch out – Twilight’s got a new leading lady in the style stakes. GG

Beauty Tried And Tested: The Best Anti-Aging Creams
Want to find the best anti-aging night creams that'll wind back the clock overnight? Then LOOK's very own Beauty Editor Sophie Beresiner and LOOK reader Jane Dyson are here to help, as they've searched the high street to find four of the best anti-aging night creams on the high street...
Beauty Editor: This sank in immediately and felt ultra nourishing. My skin looked considerably smoother after just a few days - it’s staying on my bedside table! Jane: I liked this because it was very soft on my skin and I could definitely feel some difference after using it. The scent was faint too so it’s not overly perfumed. Beauty Score: 5/5
Beauty Editor: This silky cream protects skin from UV and pollution and repairs sun damage. My skin felt well rested in the morning but a bit on the sticky side. Jane: This had a faint smell of parma violet sweets and a wonderful silky-soft texture. When I woke up the next morning it felt like it was still working. I’d use this again. Beauty Score: 4/5
Beauty Editor: At first this felt heavy on my skin so I’d only use a little but it definitely boosted my complexion and left my skin looking perkier. Jane: The smell of this reminded me of orange chewy sweets – not what I’d expect from a face-cream! It took a while to absorb but my skin looked brighter the next day. Beauty Score: 3/5
- Avon Anew Reversalist Renewal Night Cream, £20
Beauty Editor: A techy cream that’s designed to make your skin heal itself throughout the night. Sank in fast and made my skin velvety soft but not looking younger. Jane: This cream was rather greasy but did the job in terms of moisturising my skin. I didn’t notice any anti-aging benefits though. Beauty Score: 2/5

Beauty Tried And Tested: The Best Pink Shimmer Lipsticks
Want to know what the best beauty products are before you buy? LOOK is here to help... this week our very own Beauty Editor Sophie Beresiner and LOOK reader Rebecca Thorogood have put pink shimmer lipsticks to the test...
Beauty Editor: I liked that this was subtle, rather than a full-on sparkle. The rounded tip wasn’t great for getting a clean line, so use a brush – it’s what the pros do! Rebecca: This went on smoothly and only needed one coat. It was bright, girlie and gave a gorgeous finish. The perfect holiday lippy. Beauty Score: 4/5
- Laura Mercier Shimmer Lip Colour in Camellia, £16
Beauty Editor: This shocking pink comes out even brighter on your lips and the sheen finish guarantees a high-impact pout. Attention-seeking at its best! Rebecca: Wow. What a bright, lip-popping colour! Although it was the most matt one it didn’t dry out my lips, but it did smudge easily. Beauty Score: 3/5
- ArtDeco Avant Garde Shimmer Lipstick in Fresh Fuchsia Shimmer, £14
Beauty Editor: A coral pink that looked like it was full of thousands of tiny crystals. It was ultra-moisturising but smudged easily so a good lip liner is a must. Rebecca: This felt slightly oily and I needed a few coats to stand out. The shimmer was pretty though. Beauty Score: 2/5
- Avon Ultra Colour Rich Mega Impact Lipstick in Fuchsia Fun, £5
Beauty Editor: I loved this foxy pink, packed with shimmer – spot-on for autumn’s glitter lips trend. The angular tip makes it easy to apply too. Rebecca: This was very bright so the shimmer finish looked great. It felt soft and the colour stayed put. Beauty Score: 5/5

Lauren Conrad never fails to disappoint on the red carpet. This time she wins style points for her flawless make-up and vintage waves.
Lauren Conrad is looking better then ever right now. The Hills star posed on the red carpet with Reese Witherspoon and Courtney Cox, looking every inch the Hollywood star at the Avon Awards Gala.
Lauren stole the limelight in a figure-hugging dress by Herve Leger, teamed with bright red lips, matching nails and a clever fake bob. Lauren has been a fan of the temporarily short hairstyle and has been snapped sporting this hairstyle at many red carpet events.
This time the LA beauty pinned her vintage curls at the back of her head to form her on trend hairdo.
Lauren finished her beauty look with heavy eye liner, long luscious lashes, peachy blush and a statement red pout.
