How to: glow like Salma on the 2013 Oscars red carpet

In a year that in my opinion was pretty ho-hum on the Oscars red carpet, the vivacious Salma Hayek was like a breath of fresh air. Her look was pure glamour – including her to-die-for Alexander McQueen gown – and her golden girl glow was courtesy of celebrity makeup artist Jo Strettell and the always-amazing St Tropez.

The brief was “Modern Regal Glamour” and that was certainly achieved, with Strettell using the St Tropez Applicator Mitt to “buff Salma's body with the St Tropez Gradual Tan Plus Firming Body Lotion to enhance to a radiant glow on the day.” To achieve what she describes as “a very glowy, bronzed skin tone” she applied the St. Tropez Self Tan Bronzing Mousse with an applicator mitt the day before, to get a great base tan and even flawless color.

Both two of my favourite St Tropez prods ever, applied to perfection!
