Dancing With the Stars: The Beauty Breakdown

Here's my take this week:
Samantha Harris: Love the black and white shirred gown, which was so flattering and pretty. Also loved the soft, pretty, Catherine Zeta Jones-esque hair and the sophisticated makeup.
The Stars:
Laila Ali: The fringed sparkly bronze dress looked stunning with her skintone. It literally made her glow. I also loved the new 'do, which was a great change from the sleek straight styles of the past few episodes. It was a halo of soft, well defined curls that framed her face beautifully. Her makeup was also amazing: slightly smoky eyes, sheer berry gloss on the lips, and a berry stain on the cheeks. Gorgeous.
Heather Mills: The black dress looked beautiful, with a full flowing satin skirt. I also liked the makeup, which went with the sophisticated feel of the dress: brick red lips on an otherwise subtle but polished face. I didn't like her hair, however, with the little twists at the scalp that ended up in a tight chignon. It looked bumpy and messy.
The Dancers:
Cheryl Burke: Her hair looked softer and prettier tonight; more of a soft shag than a stiff helmet. Her makeup was beautiful, with sheer glossy brick lips and bronze metallic shadow, though the blush might have been a little overdone. Also loved the sparkly cinnamon colored two piece outfit, which was just gorgeous with her skin tone.
Kim: The silver and black mini dress with a sequined bra top and fringe on the skirt was fun. I also liked her hair more than usual; it was softer and not so stiff and dated. I also loved the makeup. The subtle cheeks worked well with the hot pink lipstick and black eyeliner.
Edyta: Her outfit was so fun and flashy. I loved the swingy skirt, which moved so beautifully when she danced. I liked her makeup, with hot pink cheeks (the color of the season) and sheer glossy pink lips. Her hair also looked lovely, with a center part and soft, loose curls.
Julianne: Pretty elegant pale pink-beige slipdress. So pretty and subtle - a nice change for the show. Her makeup is also so pretty, as always. Week after week, it looks fresh and feminine, and not ever overdone. Pretty pink lips, bronze cheeks and shimmery eyes looked so lovely on her and didn't overwhelm her delicate features. Not sure about her hair, though, which was big and poufy and heavily curled, like a Frederick's of Hollywood model or a Dolly Parton wig. It overshadowed her small face.
Karina: I loved the black and white 50s-style polka dot dress, especially the whimsical touch of a pink trim and a little pink heart on the bottom. Not sure about the makeup, though. Hot pink eyeshadow? She always takes risks with her makeup, which I like, but this one doesn't pay off. Her face was just too pink all over, with pink lips, cheeks and eyes. The glamorous retro hair was beautiful, though.
