To make a round face appear slimmer, or rock a red carpet look in a snap, highlight your cheekbones with these easy steps! Use a cream blush on the apples of your cheeks, and blend the color upwards along your natural cheekbones toward the outer edges of your face. Use a liquid or stick highlighter to line the area just underneath your cheekbones (the part of your cheek that sinks in when you make a kissing face). Blend the highlighter upwards into the blush, never going higher than the apples of your cheeks. Finish the look by reducing signs of color-creasing with a dust of translucent powder.

January Jones of Mad Men, graced the 2011 Golden Globes red carpet with an old Hollywood nostalgia. Red lipstick creates a chic seductive look, but it isn’t always easy to find the right shade for your complexion. Keep reading to get perfect fiery fifties lips for your skin color.
1. What skin tone do you have? The veins on the inside of your wrists are great indicators of what skint tone you have. If the veins are blue or purple, than you’re a cool girl. If the veins are yellow or green than you’re a warm chic.
2. For the cool shade girls: Is your skin complexion fair or medium? Girls with cool fair skin, look best with red lipstick that has a blue base. Girls with cool medium skin look best with red lipstick that has both a blue or warm red base.
3. For the warm-shade girls: Is your skin complexion olive or dark? Girls with warm olive complexions look best with red or red orange based lipstick. Girls with warm darker complexions look best with brown based red lipstick.
4. Time to fire things up. Now that you know your skin tone and complexion, its time to try on some lipstick! Remember to prep your lips with a lip balm. Apply a lip liner in the same shade of your lipstick or darker. Apply your shade of red lipstick, nude eye shadow, a side part in your hair and walk around talking with some great ’50s phrases. Daddy-o!

We love the hair headband! It keeps hair off your face while also adding a stylish touch to the average Pippi Longstocking braids. If Jessica Alba’s look seems complicated at first glance, fear not! We have a short list of tips to get this style quick. Make sure your hair is straight of wavy – curly hair will make it harder to braid and keep in place. Once relatively straight, make a center part from your hairline to the nape of your neck. Then braid each side. (Tip: Even though you’ll take these out later, secure each braid with a hair tie while styling.) Lift the right braid and wrap it from each to ear. Remove the tie and pin. Repeat by doing the same to the left braid. In addition to pinning near the ears, you can now begin to tuck pins discreetly throughout the braids. This way, the hairband doesn’t begin to droop and loosen the pins near the ears. Finally, tuck any loose hair underneath the braid and secure with pins. You should be all set! If it seems like a braid might sway, stick it with a pin, but remember to pin underneath the hairband, so no one will know your secret! Enjoy!

It can be a pain when every new hair trend seems to require curly-haired girls to pull out the straightening iron and blow dryer. But don’t worry—it’s time to put those hot tools down, because this season’s ushering in four hot new hairstyles that require curls!
Badgley Mischka, Imaxtree A deep side part (hair barrette optional) is a polished look. Although this hairstyle is shown with volume only on the sides, which you can easily get by sleeping with damp hair in a tight ponytail, it would look just as lovely with entirely curly hair.
Marc Jacobs, Imaxtree For girls with already short hair (or looking to go shorter for spring) a cute ’30s style bob is a fashionable option. This wash-and-go style is great for the girl on the go.
Z Spoke by Zac Posen, Imaxtree For an edgier look the ruffled up-do is right on trend. Simply crop the sides and back of the hair short and keep it long on the top and front. If you’re not ready for the chop, fake it with long hair by twisting the back into a french twist, bobby pinning the “tail” forward, and smoothing the sides down with a dab of gel.
Marc Jacobs, Imaxtree Or for the truly adventurous (or truly time pressed) go big with Marc Jacobs frizzy styles. Simply brush through curls and pin the hair back behind your ears or smooth back with some hair gel.

Thick, eyelash grazing bangs à la Jane Birkin are still a fresh look for spring, and a great way to quickly change up your hairstyle. One caveat for this spring trend: if you have very wavy or curly hair—unless you are prepared to blow dry your bangs every morning—you might want to skip this look. However, if you have a long or oval shaped face, with straight or slightly wavy hair, then these bangs were meant for you. To style thick bangs: dry the bangs straight, then spray a bit of hairspray onto a brush, and brush through the bangs to keep them in place.
