The Look: Super-straight, centre-parted, sleeked-back hair (also seen on Eva Mendes at the 30 Days of Fashion & Beauty launch party in Sydney).
The Low-Down: After smoothing a straightening cream through towel-blotted hair, blow-dry thoroughly, using a large barrel brush with mixed bristles to help tame hair into submission. Once dry, give the outer layers of hair a once-over with an iron for the sleekest finish. Pull the frontal layers back from your face, tucking them behind your ears and securing them out of sight with bobby pins. To calm down any frizzies, smear some of the straightening balm in your palms and run them over the surface of hair.
The Lust-After: Kiehl’s Creme with Silk Groom ($36, from Mecca Cosmetica stores).

Emmy Rossum is such a pretty girl, shes got such a lovely and sincere face. I find this look a bit too much for her-I think it’s the black.
