[STYLE] GET THE LOOK - 'THE VOICE' FINALE SHOW LOOK
What an amazing finale. So proud of everyone and so happy for Jermaine. For tonight's finale I wanted to take a play on the classic tuxedo. It was a great way to end the season. Xoxo
Xtina
Makeup artist Jake Bailey:
For the season finale we wanted some classic Xtina glamour....smokey eyes and red lips.
I lined her eyes with Covergirl liquiline blast eyeliner and blended a gunmetal Make up for ever Aquacream under her lashline and onto her lids up into the crease. I applied two sets of Ardell "wispies" lashes and coated them with Covergirl 24 hour mascara.
I lined her lips with a CoverGirl liner called "hot" and filled them in with Make Up for Ever Aquacream #8 and glossed them up with Dior Addict Ultra Gloss #856
Follow Jake on Twitter @byjakebailey
Hair stylist Mark Townsend:
For the finale of The Voice, Christina wanted to go for Rock N Roll glamour with her hair and I LOVED her idea! I started her hair by applying a large dollop of Dove Style+Care Amplifier Mousse to damp hair and blowdried with a large round brush. When the hair was dry, I took 3 to 5 inch sections of hair and wrapped each section around a 1 1/2 inch curling iron but left the bottom 2 inches a little straighter. Next I sprayed Sally Hershberger Salon Texture Blast all over and scrunched with my hands to create a cool, second day texture

Stylist Simone Harouche:
For the finale show, Christina wanted to go with a tuxedo, but have fun with it and make it her own. She wore a dolce and gabbana sequin tux jacket, with a white dolce and gabbana tuxedo shirt and Norma kamali omo studded shorts.
We accessorized with black fishnets, Christian Louboutin boots and loree Rodkin jewels.
Hope you guys enjoyed the look tonight!

[STYLE] GET THE LOOK - 'THE VOICE' FINALE PERFORMANCE SHOW LOOK
Last night I was so proud and honored to perform The Prayer with Chris Mann. Below is how we got our look. Chris, good luck - I am so lucky to have you on my team! XoXtina
Stylist Simone Harouche:
For tonight's episode of The Voice, we wanted to go really glam. What better way to do that, than with gold and glitter!!! For Christina's chair look, she wore a black alexander wang dress with a gold sequin Jay Ahr jacket, and crystal daffodil Louboutins. She wore yellow gold jewelry by Loree Rodkin. For Christina's performance look, she wore a copper Kaufman franco gown.
Hope you guys liked tonight's look...

Makeup artist Jake Bailey:
Christina and I wanted to do something special and I've been waiting for a chance to use these jewel strips I've been carrying around in my kit for the past year. I started by blending an aubergine make up for ever aquacream shadow all over her lid and into the crease. I then highlighted her lids using a metallic gold powder....also by Make Up For Ever. After applying false lashes and a thick coat of CoverGirl 24 hour mascara it was time for the jewel strips. I used a thin liquid liner brush to paint the lash glue just above the base of the lash and used tweezers to delicately place the jewel strip along the eye holding it in place just long enough for the glue to dry. I lined her lips with Cici #47 coral liner and glossed them up with Dior Addict Ultra Gloss # 227.
Follow Jake on Twitter @byjakebailey
Hair stylist Mark Townsend:
For tonight's episode of The Voice I wanted Christina's hair to have a slightly retro inspiration. I started by applying a few drops of Dove Nourishing Oil Care Anti-Frizz Serum to her damp hair and blow dried with a round brush. When the hair was dry I set it in barrel curls using a 2 inch curling iron and let the hair cool while Christina had her make up done. Next I removed the clips holding the barrel curls and brushed through. I finished by spraying Dove Style+Care all over to keep the hair shiny and in place.

[STYLE] GET THE LOOK - 'THE VOICE' SEMI-FINAL RESULTS SHOW LOOK
Sometimes an entire look is sparked by a brilliant idea. Last nights look is an example of how creativity can transform anything. By using a necklace in a different way my stylist simone was able to create a brilliant head piece. And the glam just went from there. Don't be afraid to take chances. - XoXtina
Hair stylist Mark Townsend:
I can't even begin to find the words to describe how much I love my job and how inspiring it is to work with Christina Aguilera, I'm the luckiest kid on Earth! For tonight's elimination show of The Voice we went for a sexy but tough look, it's a very editorial look that only Xtina and her fans can pull off so flawlessly. This look is all about texture and finding a great piece of jewelry to put in your hair. I started this look by applying a large dollop of Dove Amplifier Mousse to Christina's damp hair and blow dried with just my hands, scrunching the hair a lot to create volume and texture. When the hair was dry I Sprayed Dove Style+Care Flexible Hold Hairspray all over and wrapped 3 inch sections of hair around a 1 1/4 inch curling iron.
The key here is to not curl the bottom 2 to 3 inches of hair because leaving them natural and a little straighter gives the hair a little bit of an edge-y vibe. Next, I sectioned off all the hair from hairline to the crown and on both sides and then twisted 2 inch sections of hair away from the face and pinning all the twists in the back. I finished her hair by spraying Sally Hershberger Texture Blast all over while scrunching with my hand to give the hair a really cool piecey texture. To top off the look I pinned a necklace that Christina's stylist Simone Harouche suggested around the front hairline. I have to say that this goes into the hall of fame of my all-time favorite hairstyles I've ever created!
Follow Mark on Twitter @marktownsend1
Makeup artist Jake Bailey:
To recreate last nights eye makeup start by lining the entire eye with CoverGirl's Liquiline Blast eyeliner in black. Then take a black cream shadow from NARS and blend it onto the lid all the way to the crease of the lid. Then use your fingertip to tap a multi-colored glitter onto the cream shadow while it is still moist. The one I used is Inglot's Body Sparkles # 57. I applied two strips of Red Cherry #43 lashes and coated them with CoverGirls's 24 hour LashBlast mascara. I lined her lips with Inglot's Full METAL Lipliner # 859, coated them with "Dust Rose" lipstick from La Femme and added Dior Addict Ultra Gloss #267 Cashmere Pink Pearl for shine.

Stylist Simone Harouche:
For Tuesday's get the look, it all started with a necklace! I had this amazing necklace that we decided to use as a headpiece. This inspired and set the rest of our look in motion as a sort of mad max gone glam! I absolutely live for this look! It's edgy, sexy modern an rogue.
She wore a black suede Balmain motorcycle jacket, American Aapparel black jersey dress and leopard Christian Louboutin heels.
The look was really about the accessories though! The necklace (worn as headpiece) was made by Martin Bernstein. Pinky ring and earrings by Loree Rodkin.
Hope you love tonight's look as much as I do! Xo Simone

[STYLE] GET THE LOOK - 'THE VOICE' SEMI-FINAL LIVE SHOW LOOK
Tonight we got to have a lot of fun with my look. Fashion meets rock n roll meets royalty. Sometimes a girl just wants to play and a tiara is perfect for that. XoXtina
Stylist Simone Harouche:
For tonight's look, we went a little more edgy fashion forward, while still maintaining a sense of playfulness. Christina wanted a break from the pretty sleek dresses she's been wearing lately. So we decided to go a little more edgy. Her peplum jacket is by Alexander McQueen. She wore shorts by American Apparel, fishnets by Danskin and boots by Christian Louboutin. Christina wore a custom made knuckle duster by Stephen Webster and a pinky ring by Loree Rodkin.
What really pulled tonight's look was the stunning hair by Mark Townsend and makeup by Jake Bailey. Mark Townsend created big sexy hair which complemented her Butler and Wilson crystal skull tiara. I am obsessed with Christina's look tonight!! It's good to change things up once in a while and keep everyone on their toes!

Hair stylist Mark Townsend:
For the live show of The Voice tonight I was beyond inspired by the amazing tiara that super-stylist Simone Harouche found for Christina to wear. I wanted her hair to be full, sexy, and a bit rock n roll. I started he hair by applying a large dollop of Dove Nourishing Curls Mousse to her hair and blow drying with my hands until it was completely dry. Then I took a 1/2 inch curling iron and wrapped 1 inch sections of her hair around the iron (this can be a little time consuming but the amazing curl and texture you get are totally worth it!)
After all the hair was curled, I pulled the curls apart with my fingers to loosen the curls and create volume and texture and then I sprayed loads and loads of Sally Hershberger Salon Texture Blast Spray all over, I even asked Christina to flip her head over so I could spray all her hair while scrunching with my hands, this spray keeps the hair full and gives the hair super texture!
Follow Mark on twitter @marktownsend1
Makeup artist Jake Bailey:
Christina and I were both in the mood for red lips tonight and we found a killer combo to create this lip. I started by lining her entire lip with Inglot's Full METAL Lipliner #856. I then painted the entire lips with Make Up For Ever AquaCream shade #8 and coated them with Dior Addict Ultra Gloss in "Little Red Dress" for tons of shine.
To create the eye look I blended Shiseido Shimmering Cream Eye Color in "purple dawn" all over the lid, applied two strips of Ardell "Wispies" and coated them with CoverGirl 24 hour LashBlast mascara. The cheeks were my favorite combo of Benefit "Coralista" blush on the apples and NARS "Casino" bronzer under the cheekbones.
Follow Jake on Twitter @byjakebailey
Manicurist Farah Songharian:
Christina's nails complimented the sparkle of her tiara. I used Dashing Diva DesignFX in "look, don't touch" and she loved it.
Christina's finishing touch:
Tonight was a no brainer when it came to my finishing touch of fragrance. Fans, when wearing a tiara there's only one fragrance worthy of a queen and that is my very own Royal Desire, available at Sears.

[STYLE] GET THE LOOK - VOICE QUARTER FINAL ELIMINATION SHOW PT 2
You can never go wrong with a little black dress and I loved this look as we added a pop of color.
XoXtina
Makeup artist Jake Bailey:
Christina was in the mood for some color last night. She wanted something fun and what's more fun than electric blue liner and giant lashes? I used an Urban Decay 24/7 eye pencil aptly titled "Electric" to draw a thick line above the lashes and wing it up and out into a classic cat eye shape. These pencils have crazy staying power so you can use them to achieve very precise shapes without worrying if they will smudge or bleed. I then used a small cone shaped eye shadow brush to accentuate the crease of her eye with dark purple M.A.C. eyeshadow called "purple haze" I applied Ardell #113 strip lashes which are extra long and beautifully shaped and coated them with CoverGirl 24/7 LashBlast mascara.
I dusted her cheeks with a matte pink blush from M.A.C. called "Swoon" and lined her lips in fully with a rose colored lip liner from Urban Decay called "Wicked". I then applied a deep rasberry gloss from MARK called "wild extravagance" to deepen the lip shade and add major shine.
Follow Jake on Twitter @byjakebailey
Hair stylist Mark Townsend:
For the live show tonight I wanted Christina's hair to have lots of volume and movement, so I applied a large dollop of Dove Style+Care Amplifier Mousse to her damp hair and blow dried with a round brush. I then wrapped 3 inch sections of her hair around a one inch curling iron. The trick is to only wrap the hair around the barrel of the iron, and to not even open the clamp, or you could just use a curling wand which has no clamp on it at all. Next I sprayed Sally Hershberger Body Fix Spray all over and even had Christina flip her hair upside down and sprayed while scrunching the hair so I could really get the product in there and evenly distributed. This product gives the hair unbelievable texture, very rock and roll and beachy at the same time. Seconds before she walked out I sprayed Dove Extra Hold Hairspray all over to give Christina's hair great hold and shine. I really love when Christina gets her hands in her hair and touches it when I'm done, I think that means she really likes it!

I used an Urban Decay 24/7 eye pencil aptly titled "Electric" to draw a thick line above the lashes and wing it up and out into a classic cat eye shape. These pencils have crazy staying power so you can use them to achieve very precise shapes without worrying if they will smudge or bleed. I then used a small cone shaped eye shadow brush to accentuate the crease of her eye with dark purple M.A.C. eyeshadow called "purple haze" I applied Ardell #113 strip lashes which are extra long and beautifully shaped and coated them with CoverGirl 24/7 LashBlast mascara.
I dusted her cheeks with a matte pink blush from M.A.C. called "Swoon" and lined her lips in fully with a rose colored lip liner from Urban Decay called "Wicked". I then applied a deep rasberry gloss from MARK called "wild extravagance" to deepen the lip shade and add major shine.

Hair stylist Mark Townsend:
For the live show tonight I wanted Christina's hair to have lots of volume and movement, so I applied a large dollop of Dove Style+Care Amplifier Mousse to her damp hair and blow dried with a round brush. I then wrapped 3 inch sections of her hair around a one inch curling iron. The trick is to only wrap the hair around the barrel of the iron, and to not even open the clamp, or you could just use a curling wand which has no clamp on it at all. Next I sprayed Sally Hershberger Body Fix Spray all over and even had Christina flip her hair upside down and sprayed while scrunching the hair so I could really get the product in there and evenly distributed. This product gives the hair unbelievable texture, very rock and roll and beachy at the same time. Seconds before she walked out I sprayed Dove Extra Hold Hairspray all over to give Christina's hair great hold and shine. I really love when Christina gets her hands in her hair and touches it when I'm done, I think that means she really likes it!

[STYLE] GET THE LOOK - VOICE QUARTER FINAL ELIMINATION SHOW
Tonight was a good example of how bold color can still be soft and sexy. Hope you enjoyed the look! - XoXtina
Hair stylist Mark Townsend:
Christina's hair tonight is all about those sexy, swinging layers and loads of shine. I started by applying a few drops of Dove Nourishing Oil Anit-Frizz Serum to her damp hair before blow drying, the natural almond and coconut oils in the serum moisturize the hair and argan oil seals the cuticle, locking moisture in. I blow dried the hair with a large round brush to give her hair movement and then used a 2 inch curling iron on 5 inch sections of hair. To separate the curls and give her hair cool texture I sprayed Sally Hershberger Shagg Spray in my hands and then raked my hands through all the hair. I finished by spraying Dove Extra Hold Hairspray all over to keep the hair in place without weighing it down or getting sticky. I have been having so much fun creating different hairstyles for the live shows and I love that Christina is so adventurous, she is such an inspiration and amazing to collaborate with!

The first thing Christina said when I saw her today was that she wanted a glossy burgundy lip! I love a dark lip and had just the shade. I first lined and filled in her lips with Urban Decay 24/7 Lip liner in "envious". I then coated her lips with Le Métier De Beaute lip cream in "framboise creme" I created the eye look using aubergine an gold shades from my YSL "pure chromatics" pallettes adding intensity to the lashline using CoverGirl's black liquiline blast liner.

Celebrity manicurist Farah Songhorian used Essie's Wicked.
To top off my look and to compliment british designer Alexander McQueen I used my fragrance Royal Desire as a finishing touch on the look. Blackcurrant and yuzu scents makes anyone feel like modern royalty. You can purchase Royal Desire at Sears.
