Trends come & trends go & this season you don't want to be caught in public looking like last year(or worse,last... Decade). I've read all the magazines for you & come up with the best & worst trends for winter.
Winter Do #1: Goodbye Helmet Head. The less done your hair looks, the more in you'll look. You'll notice trendy hair this season looks loose, wavy & fresh. To micmic it, throw out the hairspray, use a light mousse instead of gel to add texture & don't be afraid to let your roots grow out, just a bit.
Winter Don't #1: Grow nails long & finish them with a French manicure. Short,round nails are hot for this season. Skip the long taloned manicure & instead, paint your nails dark.
Winter Do #2: Don't throw out the self tanner. Yes we love nicole kidman's porcelein skin too, but theres nothing sexies than a bronzed glow in the dead of winter. You'll always look as if you just got back from the tropics.
Winter Don't #2: Layer on the foundation. A fresh face admittedly hard to get in winter if you live in the cold climes - is key this winter. But to look fresh, you must take it easy with the foundation. No one needs to slather on foundation all over her face. Stick to your bad zones, typically around your eyes, your nose & on your cheeks. You don't need foundation on your forehead or even neck. Another tip: skip foundation altogether & use cocealer around your eyes & nose.
Winter Do #3: Go smoky on the eyes, pale on the lips. To get perfect smoky eyes, use brown shades if you're blonde,dark brown if you are brunette & deep purple or black if you have black hair (the best black is la femme hollywood). Start with eyeliner, moving on to a dark eyeshadow, lightening as you go up the lid. A bit of shimmer on the inside corner of the eye & on the browbone gives you a super awake look. Try benefit high brow. Oh & don't be afraid to pile on the mascara. Applying multiple coats really does thicken.
Winter Don't #3: Avoid red lips. Red lips & pale skin are a classic look the endures. Dior's rich, red shades are favorites of stylists. Just be sure to lay off the self tanner if you're going for red lips.
Winter Do #4: layer your favorite fragrances.Sarah jessica parker created her own unique scent by layering 3 fragrances one super cheap, a man's musk & a fabulous rich scent. The result isn't her new lovely but she swears shes still trying to mimic her favorite s2ent. Parkers right on to a hot trend of the moment: layering two fragrances to create a new scent. How to do it! Take your favorite scent & layer a new one a top it. Try out several versions until you find your favorite mix.
Winter Don't #4: Ignore your feet. Yes your feet are all covered up during the winter, but its such a treat to keep them groomed. Either treat yourself to pedicures or do them yourself. Also keep a buffing stick in the shower & slough off that nasty dead skin. A great one is feet first buffing pad used in combination with a sugar rub. Try pure fiji sugar rub.
Winter Do #5: Moisturize after every shower. Skin left unmoisturized will itch, and itching(especially done when you're not paying complete attention) can causes scabs, which in turn can scar. In the shower ,make sure you exfoliate your body thoroughly with a loofah. I like wearing those loofah gloves. Then when you get out & dry off. Slather on the moisturizer. My favorite? Kiel's
Winter Don't #5: Pooh-pooh fake eyelashes. Trust us jessica simpson has gorgeous eyes because she slaps on the falsies. There are all sorts of false eyelashes to try these days. Don't want to be too obvious? Try the individual lashes..
