00:00 So I literally don't know what they're doing, actually.
00:02 I see great stuff, I just see the finished product.
00:05 - Hi, I'm Taraji P. Henson, I'm in Los Angeles,
00:08 and I'm getting ready for the Women in Hollywood
00:10 event tonight for Elle Magazine.
00:13 (upbeat music)
00:15 I'm most excited to be in the room with such greatness
00:21 and to celebrate each other.
00:23 It's gonna be a good reunion.
00:24 (laughs)
00:26 We've all been so busy and away from each other
00:28 because of the strike, so it'll be good to see
00:30 each other again tonight in a celebratory manner.
00:32 - What are we doing?
00:36 (laughs)
00:38 - I just sit in the chair and let them go.
00:40 This is their area, this is their area of expertise.
00:43 This right here, Guillain, is my favorite face moisturizer.
00:49 Oops, sorry.
00:52 I love it so much I almost dropped it.
00:53 I have the night cream, the day cream, the youth serum.
00:57 I have it all.
00:58 - We always use the Dior Glow.
01:00 - Oh yeah.
01:00 - Like, incorporate.
01:01 - So I literally don't know what they're doing, actually.
01:03 I see great stuff, I just see the finished product.
01:06 (laughs)
01:08 I've always dreamed of being amongst A-list actors
01:13 and names, and here I am.
01:15 Whenever I have to get prepared to go anywhere,
01:18 get dressed up, they have that touch.
01:21 And they always can tell when I like how I'm looking
01:23 because I start, like, flipping my hair,
01:26 - Puckering the lips.
01:27 - Puckering the lips.
01:29 I love it.
01:30 (laughs)
01:31 And they get excited because they know I'm happy.
01:33 I can't live without any of my TPH products.
01:36 Like, tonight, my skin needs to shimmer and pop and glow,
01:39 so I have my, here we glow now, and my oils.
01:42 Yeah, this sells out a lot.
01:44 (laughs)
01:45 I had to purchase my own, and I got the last bottle.
01:48 So sorry out there.
01:49 (laughs)
01:50 All right, well, it's time for me to get into my look.
01:53 So tonight, the look I'm wearing
01:55 is this gunmetal Grecian goddess style dress by Ralph Lauren
01:59 'cause I have to answer questions, I have to be on.
02:02 So it's very important that I love the look
02:05 before I leave the house.
02:06 (upbeat music)
02:09 Voila.
02:11 (laughs)
02:13 Thanks for getting ready with me.
02:17 Bye-bye.
