Rachel McAdams has logged some major on-screen make outs with Ryan Gosling, Eric Bana, Owen Wilson, and now, thanks to her latest role in The Vow, Channing Tatum. Kissing those handsome leading men isn't just an occupational perk, it's a scripted requirement.

McAdams recently walked the red carpet at the Los Angeles premiere of The Vow wearing a pale blue Vivienne Westwood dress, a 14k-yellow-gold-and-diamond ring by Le Vian, and a gorgeous bright pink shade on her lips. We asked our beauty department to recommend some similar lipstick colors to recreate her look (at least from the neck up!), and they suggested:

CoverGirl LipPerfection in Flame, $6 (pictured above)
Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Pur Couture #13, $30
MAC lipstick in Lady Danger, $14.50

Pick your favorite shade, then grab your guy and script your own Hollywood make out sesh tonight.

Much like the Golden Globes, the Screen Actors Guild Awards always have exciting red carpet moments that serve as bridal inspiration. Last night, three stars in particular wowed us with their gorgeous updos. Glee star Dianna Agron's (main) fishtail braid framed her face effortlessly and added an extra sweet touch that complemented the ruffles on her fuchsia Carolina Herrera dress. The Help's Emma Stone (top right) kept it ladylike with her classic French twist with side swept bangs that paired well with her '50s-esque Alexander McQueen tea-length dress. Meanwhile, The Big Bang Theory actress Kaley Cuoco's (bottom right) braided headband was a wedding-day appropriate hairstyle that played up her aqua fairy-princess ballgown by Romona Keveza to sheer perfection.

Larger-than-life performer Nicki Minaj, who can often be spotted in the front row during Fashion Week, can now be found in the beauty aisles too—at least her new nail polish can. The hip-hop star teamed up with OPI to create a limited-edition collection that is just as colorful as her personality. Though some of the shades may be a little much for your wedding day, they are more than perfect for your bachelorette party. The six-piece collection, which hit stores in January, includes Pink Friday, Metallic 4 Life, Fly (aqua), Did It On 'Em (lime), Save Me (rainbow glitter), and Super Bass Shatter. —Stephanie Davila

Need hairstyle ideas for your wedding? We love the braided bun that Kerastase hair stylist Brandon Yamamoto created for the Monique Lhuillier Fall 2012 bridal show. "Monique's collection is very springy, young and flirty, so we went with a French braid so that it was textured and young looking, but clean at the same time," says Yamamoto. Here's how to get the look in five easy steps:

1) Start off by prepping dry hair with Kerastase Fibre Architecte, an end sealer and filler, to give the hair a polished shine.

2) Next, use a leave-in hair lotion such as Kerastase Sublimateur Jour to control the hair while braiding.

3) With the edge of your comb, create a strong side part from your hairline all the way to the crown. Work a French braid around the face, keeping it looser so you can really see the texture of the braid coming off the head. Follow the hairline and continue braiding.

4) Next, add the opposite side of the part into the braid and work your way around the head. As you get to the ends of the hair, twist the braid up and then braid through the ends.

5) When you're done braiding, wrap the braid on itself and tuck the ends in to create a bun. Secure with bobby pins.

What's to love: It soothes, hydrates and replenishes the skin while fighting off extra oil, so you have a healthy glow—not a shine—on your wedding day.

Key ingredients: Laminara seaweed to combat excess oil, prickly pear and hyaluronic acid to lock in moisture, aloe vera and licorice to soothe the skin, and Argan extract to protect your skin from free radicals.

Why it works: Probiotics—the good bacteria that make up the skin's protective barrier—are restored to the skin to fight aging and everyday damage. The natural, biocompatible ingredients allow the skin to absorb the products more easily, without irritation. They also have hints of vanilla, pomegranate and rose water, which means they work and make you smell like you spent the day at the spa.

Breaking Dawn makeup artist Stacey Panepinto shows us how to get Bella's wedding-day glow. "We focused on her eyes and kept the rest of her makeup soft and natural to compliment her hair and dress," she says.

Step 1: Apply a makeup primer, such as Sensai Brightening Make-Up Base, on the face to hold the makeup for long hours.

Step 2: Lightly cover the skin with a foundation, like La Prairie Skin Caviar Concealer Foundation SPF 15 in Peche, combined with a brightening power like Laura Mercier Secret Brightening Powder under the eyes.

Step 3: Prep the eyelids with an eye shadow primer to keep it from creasing later in the day.

Step 4: Sweep a light, shimmery shadow over the eyelids to the brow bone. Panepinto used Chanel Quadra Eye Shadow in Winter Nights (1) on Bella. Then apply a dark eyeliner, like Lancome Le Crayon Khol Waterproof in Black (2), to the top lid. Blend in the darker shadow at the lash line, working your way up until the liner disappears. Stop deep color at crease. For the bottom of the eye use the pencil or shadows to draw the line and then smudge it. Finish with a couple of coats of black mascara, such as Dior Diorshow Waterproof in Black (3), to both sets of lashes.

Step 5: Brush a sheer pink blush on the apples of your cheeks for a hint of color. Bella wore Stila Custom Color Blush in Pink (4).

Step 6: Use a pink-toned lip gloss, such as Fresh Sugar Rose Tinted Lip Treatment SPF 15 (5), to accentuate the lips natural shade and moisturize.

Step 7: To complete the look, set the makeup with a light powder, like Make Up For Ever HD Powder.

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 hits theaters this Friday. Check back next week for an exclusive interview with Carolina Herrera about designing Bella's wedding gown. —Stephanie Davila

Dramatic eyes. Dark, stained lips reminiscent of Hollywood glamour. Subtle, natural makeup and softly tousled tresses—the runways of New York Bridal Fashion Week were an incubator of beauty ideas to translate into your wedding day look. At Reem Acra, the natural makeup made a stunning contrast to the oversize statement headbands, while at Romona Keveza the models (above) were whisked back to the Bridget Bardot-stamped '60s with modern interpretations of the retro beehive hairstyle and eyes lined in black and lacquered with mascara. See the full slideshow of runway looks for more styling ideas from the likes of Marchesa, Badgley Mischka, and Monique Lhuillier.

If you're lusting for red carpet-worthy wedding-day hair, you've got to try celeb hair stylist Julien Farel's new product, Restore, a wonder serum that he used on Lauren Bush's tresses when she married Ralph Lauren's son David in September.

I tested the stuff, and the result was total Lea Michele (another client of Farel's): My hair was shiny, bouncy, weightless, voluminous, and photo-ready. Don't worry if you can't afford Farel's day rate (I'm with ya!); it's super-easy to DIY. Just apply to your dry hair starting at your hairline, massage, comb through, rinse, and blow-dry. Take another cue from the new Mrs. Lauren by sharing the miracle product with your fiancé and bridal party—David and his sis, Dylan, used it on the big day, too.

Sexy, secretive, intense scorpions (Oct. 24–Nov. 22) can pull off a dramatic, rich scent. You're all about statement-making florals mixed with spices that express your depth and complexity. Try Elie Saab Le Parfum, Tom Ford Black Orchid, or Yves Saint Laurent Opium.

At the Spring 2012 Valentino runway show in Paris yesterday, the models wore soft, romantic braids wrapped around their heads, which I think would be such a pretty, bohemian look on a bride (check out the intricacy of the style in the back after the jump!) Redken Creative Consultant Guido says his goal was to create a beautiful, timeless style. To create the look, he took a circular section of the hair at the crown, divided it into three sections, and then began French braiding in the middle, continuing to just under the right ear, then going counterclockwise around the hairline, pinning along the way to keep everything in place. (Though, if you're not a braid master, I'd recommend just showing a photo to a professional hairstylist.) See more wedding hairstyles in our gallery. —Lauren Matthews

The neon makeup I'll take a pass on, but I love everything about this hairstyle seen on one of the models at Alice + Olivia's Spring 2012 Fashion Week presentation: the volume of the romantic curls, the sparkling brooch, the vaguely vintage aesthetic.

We just added this romantic barn wedding in Massachusetts to the site, and I had to highlight the bride's beautiful vintage finger-wave updo, styled by Michelle Florence of Body Mind Spirit Day Spa.
