Don't you just wish that you could incorporate some red carpet glam wherever you go? You totally can, and we're going to show you how!

The style doesn't have to end when awards season is over. Our friends at Crest 3D White along with YouTube sensation Holly Ann-AeRee are here to help you keep the party going.

The beauty guru clued us in on the notion that it doesn't take too much effort to nab a few of your favorite celebrity beauty trends and weave them together for one amped up look.

"One of my favorite things to do is, if I see a look that I really like on the red carpet, I try to choose one key element from that look and just incorporate it into my everyday life," said Holly.

Holly made the lip the focal point of her look. She noted the importance of having a really white smile and "smooth, butter-soft looking lips."

"Regardless of what lip color you use, of course you want a bright white smile," said the star. "That's also going to give you the confidence that you need to pull off a brighter or more loud lipstick. An easy way to achieve that at home is using the Crest 3D White Whitestrips. And the thing I love about these is that I can just put them on and forget about them while I'm doing the rest of my hair and makeup."

She then moved on to exfoliating her lips with a sugar lip scrub.

"A really important step is to exfoliate your lips," instructed Ann-AeRee.

She simply dabs it on and moves her fingers from left to right to slough off any dry skin.

After the lip prep steps, it was time to get down to some color business.

The beauty guru went in with a gorgeous red lip color but offered up a fuchsia or magenta alternative for those who want to tone it down.

"It will give you that same bold look but it's a little softer, a little bit easier to wear," admitted Holly.

When she finished the lip, it was time to move on to taking the eye look to the next level with false eyelashes.

"The easiest way to glam up any eye look is to add a false lash," she said. "I suggest using a clear or more flexible band. It'll make your life a lot easier."

To really bring the look home, the beauty maven whipped out a large barrelled curling iron to give her hair some bounce.

"One of my favorite things about this hairstyle is you really don't have to overthink it," stated Holly. "I'm not going to be sectioning my hair off or anything like that. I'm just grabbing some small sections and I'm going to start curling from the base of my head and just working my way down."

To really add that Hollywood glam element, Holly simply ran a brush through her hair before stealing away some selfie time!

Well deserved, Holly!
