This Week In Beauty: The Best & Worst From April 15-22, 2012 (PHOTOS)

We spend lots of time focusing on what stars wear, but what about what they put on their faces? Although makeup may not seem important, plenty of women won't leave home without it.

In a survey, two-thirds of British women said that heading to the office bare-faced caused them more stress than public speaking, going on a first date or enduring a job interview. 91 percent of women surveyed would rather cancel a first date altogether than go without makeup on. And in the U.S., women spend around $7 billion on cosmetics every year.

And that doesn't even include hair. The AP recently reported that in 1950, about seven percent of women dyed their hair. Today? 95 percent or more.

With all that beauty-obsession (and our own love of makeup) in mind, we're taking a look at This Week In Beauty. From this week forward, we'll be showcasing the best, worst and most interesting styles of hair, makeup and nails that we came across this week. Take a look, get inspired and vote for your faves!

Although it's a little oversized, we think ScarJo's milkmaid braid looked amazing at the "Avengers" European Premiere in London.

Much as I like Sharon and Ozzie, Kelly should not be held up for ANY beauty standard. She doesn't have any.

I simply do not understand WHY she is on "The Fashion Police". I love the show and think that Kelly is fun, but I simply can't take her fashion advise seriously.

I liked Kelly better when she was just a normal kid of an iconic rock star and wasn't too full of herself to participate in a good old fashioned family ham-throw..

Kelly Osbourne gets it wrong too often to be judging other peoples fashion.
09:55 AM on 04/23/2012
Seriously??? Who put Emily Blunt on that list and what do THEY look like???

LMAO, well said.

Everyone on your BEST AND WORST LIST looked great!!!! Each woman was immaculate looking, well, dressed and beautifully made up.
As for Kelly Osbourne, she was dressed the way the daughter of Ozzie would dress and, in fact, the way thousands of kids and early twenty-somethings dress. Her hair is not gray....there's a trace of purple going through it which matches the very normal color lipstick of today. Why are people so hard on women and so fast to criticize ingenuity.
I do agree Kelly looks like she needs a shower in the last photo.

I will tap Kelly until she spits out an expletive !

Kelly looks great, exactly like my grandmother!!! I do not understand what's her skill in this world.... only a rich father and that's everything to get fame!

That orange lipstick trend is awful! It looks superb on women of color and just seems to make them look really sexy; however, when white women wear it, it is atrocious and fades them out bigtime! I'm afraid our darker skin sisters have it all over us white gals when it comes to this trend!

Aw, leave Kelly alone. She's a young girl. Let her have fun with her makeup. Soon enough she'll "need" it.

Evolution is slow, but it's happening.

Well, she's not THAT young. The fact that she considers herself a fashion maven is comical. She looks worse than anyone she's put on the worst-dressed list.

Kelly is 28 and is definitely her father's daughter. Let her be free! I love it that she hasn't changed a thing from her teen days.

I just called my sister last week to comment on the topic of KO critiqueing fashion----she wears horrible looking clothes, has the nastiest(ugliest) tatoos down her forearms and that ridiculous hair color----(my sister and i often quip about trivial matters that are hilarious and ironic that are deemed newsworthy)-----where are her credentials? seriously? But-the others don't have many either---simpleton entertainment------idiot television at its finest.
09:11 PM on 04/22/2012
Agree. I don't get the hair color at all.

thnks---it'snot even attractive on the women who wear it at 85....

All fashion critiques need is an opinion. Shortest resume ever.

Kelly Osborne must get terribly exhausted from trying to be someone she is NOT.
05:59 PM on 04/22/2012
Fashion Police need new officers.
06:02 PM on 04/22/2012
I agree. I didn't see any so awful or any more awful than usual.

Yeah. The poor girl definitely inherited her father's looks and that's a damned shame.

bless her heart, either way , she's got opportunity and wealth on her side, wishing her the best

I only have to look at what she once was, and think about what she COULD have become to admire Kelly Osbourne. That's one determined chick.
