28. For makeup that lasts all day and night, use a makeup-sealing product.

27. To help you find the right shade of foundation, choose the product you think is closest to your color and try it on your jawline in natural light. You will be able to easily compare it to your neck’s color to see if you need to go for a different undertone, lighter or darker.

26. Try out the funky hair color trends without dying your hair. Instead, dust bright blush in your ponytail for the same effect. (Refinery29)

Ways to Wash Your Hair

Ways to Wash Your Hair

Any one may does  it practically every day, but do you really know how to wash your hair the right way? Using the correct techniques can make a world of difference in your hair’s health, bounce and shine — but if you’re making some common mistakes, you could be damaging your strands without even knowing it. We asked two of New York’s foremost hair pros, hair stylist Nunzio Saviano of Nunzio Saviano Salon in New York and Kyle White, lead colorist at Oscar Blandi Salon, to share their best tips for lathering up, the right way.

1. Start with a rinse.
Just like your laundry needs a rinse cycle before you add detergent, hair should be thoroughly wet before you add your shampoo. “Hot water will open the cuticle, which is good for removing any dirt or product trapped in the hair,” says White. Another bonus: “When your hair is rinsed in warm water, it loosens the oils through the scalp and opens the cuticle so it is able to absorb the oil” in your conditioner, says Saviano.

2. If you have long hair, condition first.
Yes, really! “If you have hair beneath the shoulders, protect fragile ends from drying out and further damage by running a small amount of conditioner through them and lightly rinsing, before any shampooing. This will not only keep ends healthy, it will fill any holes in the cuticle with moisture, making it smoother and boosting shine,” says White.

3. Lather up — but only at the scalp.
“You only need to shampoo the hair at the scalp, particularly at the nape,” Saviano says.
White agrees. “The best way to lather up is from roots to ends. The hair closest to the scalp is the youngest and will inevitably be the oiliest, while the end of the hair is the oldest and usually driest, most fragile part of the hair.”

Don’t use more shampoo than you need; both Saviano and White say that a quarter-sized amount of shampoo is enough. If your hair is particularly long or thick, go ahead and double that.

4. Be gentle!
Friction can permanently damage your hair’s cuticle, leading to breakage and frizz. Think about washing your hair like you hand wash your delicates — very carefully.

“Start your lather at the roots,” says White. “Increase blood flow to the scalp and stimulate hair growth by using vertical strokes with medium pressure.” Don’t use circular motions, which can tangle your hair.

Next, “Smooth the lather over the ends in a straight stroking motion,” White advises. “Do not scrub the fragile ends or use a back and forth motion like you’re washing a rag on a washboard.”

5. Don’t rinse and repeat.
Despite what the instructions on the back of your shampoo bottle may say, there’s no need to wash your hair twice. “Avoid stripping the hair by doing one shampoo only, which is usually sufficient,” says White. “Unless the hair is extremely dirty and the first shampoo didn’t produce a lather,” in which case, go ahead and lather up one more time.

6. Add conditioner from the mid-lengths to the tips.
After you’ve rinsed out your shampoo, “squeeze some of the water out of the hair before you put in the conditioner,” says Saviano. “Then clip your hair up and finish showering, leaving the conditioner rinse out for the final step of your shower.” The longer the conditioner stays on your hair, the better it absorbs. Don’t put conditioner at the roots of your hair; the natural oil from your scalp is more concentrated there.

7. Finish with a cold water rinse.
“Cold water will shut the cuticle tight, sealing the shingle-like outer layer, which will cause it to reflect the most light and give off the most shine,” says White.

More Hair Washing Tips

Use a shampoo and conditioner that’s made for your hair type. If your hair is dry, choose moisturizing products. If you color your hair, opt for color-safe formulas. “Volumizing” shampoos tend to leave hair drier, so they’re best for fine hair types that would be weighed down by more moisturizing products.

How often you wash your hair depends on your hair type, too. If you have oily or fine hair, you may need to shampoo daily. Normal or dry hair can lather up closer to three times a week.

Filter your water. White recommends using a shower filter, such as the T3 Source Showerhead, since it “removes rust and minerals from water that can dull color, and deposit on blondes making them dark and muddy.” (We’ve tried it, and it also made our hair super soft.)

Guide to Naturally Wavy Hair

Guide to Naturally Wavy Hair

If you have naturally wavy hair, then you know that sometimes your texture feels like a curse. Wavy hair isn’t as wash-and-go as straight strands, and lacks the bounce that curls have. But even though getting there may take a little extra work, waves can look shiny and gorgeous — as long as you know how to style them.

The key to making your wavy hair work? “Pick a texture and commit to it,” says Gary Howse, co-owner and founder of Gary Manuel Salons in Seattle. “If you’re going to go straight, go straight and really shiny and make that the focus. Or, pick curly and learn how to accentuate the curl.”

If you want to play up your texture…

Scrunch with mousse. Okay, we realize how 1991 that directive sounds, but today’s updated foam formulas leave hair touchable, not crunchy. We like Vidal Sassoon Pro Series Waves Foam Mousse ($3.99, vidalsassoon.com), which enhances waves with flexible polymers that create a soft, defined texture.

Coarser wavy hair may require a more heavy-duty product. Ouidad Curl Recovery Curl Defining Styling Soufflé ($26, ouidad.com) is a new styling cream that’s designed to moisturize and define dry or damaged textured hair (especially those that are natural or transitioning).

Master the anti-gravity blow dry. Wavy hair can get weighed down, so there are additional factors that go into the perfect blow-dry. “When you’re going curly, you have to think about, ‘How do I dry my hair in a way that it’s not being pulled on?’” Howse says. This may mean flipping your head upside down, or leaning your head to one side or the other while you blow dry your hair with a bell-shaped diffuser. A diffuser, of course, is key: this attachment clips onto the nozzle of your hair dryer to spread out the airflow over a wider area, giving you a gentler blow dry that plays up your natural texture while minimizing frizz.

If you want to go straight…

Prep hair with product. Wavy hair needs both moisture to fight frizz and hold to keep a blowout from falling flat. Living Proof Perfect Hair Day (PHD) ($26, livingproof.com) is a new 5-in-1 styling treatment that offers both. The lightweight cream is the first to combines the company’s two patented molecules: OFPMA, which smooths the hair cuticle and adds silicone-free shine, and PBAE, which creates fullness without crunchy texture.

Blow dry with a brush. The key to achieving a smooth, shiny blowout is pulling hair tight with a round brush while you point the dryer down toward the ends. “If you can’t feel the tension pulling, then you’re not doing it right,” Howse says.

Perfect your flat iron technique. “Be very careful about using a flat iron in a way that makes it look like 10 years ago,” Howse advises. You don’t want stick straight strands so much as you want smooth texture with a bit of movement at the ends. “Think circles; I’m not pulling it down as much as I’m pulling it out and around, so you’re actually putting a bit of a curve in it with the flat iron and then it looks modern.”

Essentials for naturally wavy hair

No matter which texture you choose…

DON’T air dry your hair. ”You’ve got to dry your hair all the way,” Howse advises. “When you have curly hair, sometimes getting it three-fourths dry is great, because if you take it all the way it gets fuzzy. When you have wavy hair, that extra water is probably not going to give you the curl you’re looking for. If you’re going straight, it’s probably going to go fuzzy on you as it starts to [air] dry.”

DO brush gently. Wavy hair tends to be more fragile than straight hair, and over brushing can lead to breakage and frizz. With its flexible plastic bristles, the Goody Tanglefix brush ($7.99, target.com) is gentle on waves.

Makeup

Makeup

A makeover isn’t always about chopping off all your hair or jumping on the pink-hair bandwagon. It’s usually the simple tweaks that can make all the difference. If you find yourself looking to change things up a bit, try one of these 1-minute makeovers.
1. Slick on a shock of hot pink lipstick for an instant wake-up. Nars Sciap ($26, narscosmetics.com) and Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Lip Tar in Anime ($18, occmakeup.com) are two of our favorite brights.
2. Pink feel too Malibu Barbie? A rich red has the same effect. Try CoverGirl LipPerfection Lip Color in Hot ($5.99, drugstore.com).

3. Try a colored gloss or lip lacquer in lieu of a cream formula. Shiny, vinyl lips make a major impact.
4. Add a touch of illuminating highlighter — try Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat ($40, yslbeautyus.com) — on the Cupid’s bow of your upper lip to make your lip color pop.
5. “Lining the inner rim of the eye is a great way to add a little bit of what I like to call ‘instant fierceness’!” says makeup artist Mally Roncal. “Just make sure to use an eye liner that is waterproof and safe for the inner rim, like Mally Beauty Evercolor Starlight Waterproof Eyeliner ($15: mallybeauty.com).”
6. Fake high cheekbones: swipe highlighter along the tops of your cheeks. Contour the hollows with matte powder bronzer.
7. Give lift to your eyes by applying a concealer one shade lighter than your skin tone at the outer corners.
8. Give your skin a dewy glow: “I always apply foundation to my skin with my hands, as if it is a moisturizer — it allows me to really press it into my skin without looking streaky or spotty,” says makeup artist Nico Guilis.
9. Add a couple individual false lashes at the corners of your eyes, says Mark makeup artist Jamie Greenberg. “It’s my favorite trick. You can’t see that you have makeup on, but boy does it make those eyes wide.”
10. Want to look more awake? If you have a deeper skin tone, neutralize purplish under eye circles with orange pigment, says makeup artist Katey Denno. “When topped with a concealer the same color as the skin tone, the area will look bright and flawless.” Fairer complexions should choose a peach-toned concealer.
11. For brighter-looking teeth, fast, brush with a toothpaste that has optical blue brighteners, such as Luster NOW! Instant Whitening Toothpaste.
12. Blue-based red lipstick bestows a similar effect on pearly whites.
13. Instant facelift: When penciling in your brows, extend the tail end so it’s higher or at the same level as where the brow begins (never lower, which brings down your features).
14. Highlight your brow bone to lift the entire eye area. Try Benefit High Brow ($20, benefitcosmetics.com). Don’t use white frosty eye shadow — the effect will look too retro.
15. Switch out your black mascara for a plum or turquoise shade on your lower lashes for a subtle color pop.

16. Use an eye shadow brush to coat your eyelashes with translucent face powder, then apply mascara on top. The powder helps to bulk up lashes for instant volume.
17. Wait, you’re not using a lash curler? Try it! A little crimp opens up the eye, even without mascara.
18. The most flattering way to wear colored eye makeup: Apply black liquid liner along the upper lash line, then add a stroke of brightly colored liner just above it.
19. Add subtle sparkle: Dab a brush dipped in glitter shadow on the tips of lashes while they’re still wet with mascara.
20. Channel Twiggy, the modern way, with this trick from Jake Bailey, Emmy Rossum’s makeup artist: “Using a small angled brush and cream eye liner, I painted little lashes in between her real lower lashes to create that false lash effect.”

21. Trade your neutral eye shadow for a pale shimmering pistachio or violet. Pastels are easy to pull off, but add subtle color to your look.
22. Line the inner rims of your eyelids with white or pale peach eye liner to make eyes instantly look brighter and more awake…
23. …Or line the inner rim of your upper lid with black or chocolate brown liner to make lashes look thicker.
24. Swap black eyeliner for navy to bring out blue eyes.
25. Try purple liner to make green or hazel eyes pop.
26. Brown eyes can wear any hue, so go bold with a bright teal or jungle green.
27. Lighten up: Pair inky liner along your top lash line with a pale, metallic rose gold or champagne line along your lower lashes.
28. Sweep a shimmery eye shadow that’s a few shades lighter than your skin over your eyelids to brighten up for daytime.
29. Apply your eye shadow with a wet brush to intensify its shade.
30. Or prep lids with an eye primer to make powder shadow more vibrant and longer-lasting.
31. Or skip shadow altogether and dab a small amount of Vaseline or clear gloss on lids for a sexy sheen.
32. Vaseline works well as a cheekbone highlighter, too — especially with a glowy, summertime look.
33. Try red blush instead of pink. Red might look scary in the compact, but a sheer swipe on skin creates a pretty flush.

34. Mix two blush shades instead of just one, recommends Kimberly Soane, Director of Global Artistry for Bobbi Brown Cosmetics. “Layering two blush colors — a natural blush and a pop of blush — helps your blush last longer, because it fades throughout the day,” Soane explains. “That’s what gives it that brightness without being too clownlike.”
35. Another tip from Soane: To prevent shiny skin, apply powder with a puff instead of a brush. “That way you are putting on powder and absorbing any excess oil, versus a powder brush which will just dust on powder.”
36. Or mix blush with bronzer to chisel sexy cheekbones. Apply bronzer in the hollows of the cheeks and bright blush on the apples.
37. Switch powder blush for a cream formula to give skin a lit-from-within glow.
38. Mix a few drops of liquid illuminator with your foundation or BB cream to give your complexion a pretty sheen.
39. Speaking of BB cream, try applying it with a brush instead of your fingers for a lighter, more blended effect.
40. Tap a small amount of glitter pigment on the center of your eyelid after applying your shadow for a pretty sparkle that will catch the light.
41. To make your eyes look larger and wider, apply a pale colored eye shadow on the inside corner of the eye and a dark shadow on the outer corner.

42. To downplay lines around the mouth and nose, stroke a highlighter pen along the nasolabial (or “marionette”) lines and blend.
43. For a bold nighttime look, use a brow powder that’s a shade darker than you typically wear. Strong brows are in!
44. After you finish your makeup, mist your face with a mineral water spray to help powders blend with skin and last longer.
45. Try a purple-tinted primer to counteract a sallow complexion.
46. A primer with a green tint will help tone down redness. Try NP Set Calming Foundation Primer ($29, target.com).
47. Dust light-reflecting mineral powder over your skin to create the optical illusion of smoother texture.
48. Line your lips after you apply your lipstick for a crisp, clean shape.
49. Or use the reverse liner technique: Use a brush to apply concealer around the outer line of your lipstick to clean up the shape.
50. For sheer, diffused color that looks like a stain, apply lipstick to your lips using your ring finger.
51. If your lips are naturally dark, apply foundation or concealer over your pout before your lip color to get true color out of the tube.
52. Use white nail polish as your base coat before applying a neon nail color; the white base will make polish look brighter.
53. Make lips look plumper by dabbing clear gloss in the center of the bottom lip only for a three-dimensional effect.
54. Or DIY your own lip plumping product by mixing lip balm with cinnamon oil and cayenne, which will cause lips to swell.
55. Instantly improve your liquid liner skills: Start on the side that’s more difficult, and it will be easier to make the “good” side match.
56. Another liquid liner tip: Line your eyes with pencil first (it’s easier to manipulate), then draw a liquid line on top.
57. Dab a bright pink shade in the center of your red lip to add subtle dimension to the look.
58. If your brows are sparse, try combing them downward instead of up after you fill in with pencil. This way, the hair will cover the pencil marks and create a more natural finish.
59. Coat your lips with balm before you start the rest of your makeup. By the time you finish with lip color, your pout will be perfectly hydrated.
60. To revive your foundation after a long day, press the round end of a damp Beauty Blender sponge over your face, blending any areas that look cakey.
61. The desk-to-dinner smoky eye: Use a liner pencil to draw over any eye makeup that’s smudged throughout the day. Make it even smudgier (and sexier!) with a Q-tip.
62. “Red, tired eyes can make you appear run down. A few drops of Visine [$7.99, drugstore.com] can eliminate the red and wake up your entire face,” says makeup artist Carmindy.
63. Another tip from Carmindy: “A deep navy tinted mascara not only creates a lush, flirty, wide awake lash look, but the blue hue contrasts with the white of your eyes to make them appear much brighter.”
64. Remove your makeup with a fine linen washcloth to cleanse and exfoliate skin at the same time.
65. Give your skin a quickie peel (and immediate glow) by swiping with an exfoliating pad such as Philosophy The Microdelivery Mini Peel Pads ($38, sephora.com).
66. Mix a sprinkle of Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant powder ($52, dermalogica.com) with a squirt of face cleanser in your palm to gently slough dead skin and reveal a brighter complexion.
67. To instantly minimize fine lines around your eyes, smooth on a cream with hyaluronic acid. “It’s a water-attracting gel that works beautifully in eye creams to help to bring a plumpness back to the skin to minimize wrinkles,” says cosmetic dermatologist Dr. Oscar Hevia.
68. If puffy eyes are your problem, press a cold metal spoon over the area for a few seconds to reduce swelling.
69. For a special event (or special dress) dust shimmer powder over your collarbone and shoulders to create a pretty glow.
70. Or mix shimmer powder with your body lotion for gleaming skin.
71. Play up your decolletage by dusting powder bronzer over and between the breasts in a “3” shape.
72. Don’t have time for tanner to develop (or just can’t deal with the smell)? Smooth on a waterproof body bronzer such as Tarte Maracuja Rainforest Glow ($34, qvc.com).
73. Try this 1-minute hairstyle idea from celebrity hair stylist and John Frieda International Creative Consultant Harry Josh: Make a deep side part in soaking wet hair, then twist into a bun and smooth with Frizz Ease hair serum before pinning a flower behind your ear. “The side part and flower make it glamorous,” Josh says.
74. Part your hair on the opposite side as you usually do. Instant volume!
75. Upgrade your ponytail: Tease your hair at the crown before pulling it up.
76. Upgrade your bun: Braid your hair before twisting it into a chic chignon.
77. Upgrade your braid: Weave a colorful hair scarf into your plait.
78. French braid your bangs along your hairline to take a break from fringe for a day.
79. Or test drive a new look with clip-in bangs, which can look surprisingly natural.
80. Boost your volume with four or five clip in extension pieces, which secure at the root with a simple barrette.

81. To tame flyaways, fast, mist a clean mascara wand or spoolie brush with hairspray and brush over unruly pieces.
82. Add a bit of rock and roll texture to short or medium length hair by working pomade into the ends with your fingers.
83. Change up your hairstyle by tucking the front pieces behind your ears, which completely alters your look.

84. Or twist and pin a piece behind one ear. So cute, so easy.
85. Finish off your blowout with a few spritzes of texturizing spray such as Oribe Dry Texturizing Spray ($39, oribe.com) to add body.
86. Or mist strands with shine spray post-blow dry for a glossy finish.
87. Revive second-day curls by misting hair with a reactivating spray, such as DevaCurl Mist-er Right ($18.95,devachansalon.com).
88. For hair that’s fallen flat, spritz spray gel at the roots to resuscitate volume.
89. For shinier strands, brush your hair before you shampoo to distribute the natural oils from your scalp.
90. In the shower, let your conditioner soak into your hair for an extra minute while you shave or exfoliate.
91. Soften a stiff updo by roughing up the surface with a clean kabuki brush. A softer texture is more modern and youthful.
92. Fake a makeover: Pin your hair into a faux bob to test drive a short cut.
93. Fake a shaved side haircut: Make a cornrow braid on one side of your head for an asymmetrical look.
94. “Olive and macadamia oils are really good for your complexion. Put one of them on in the shower and they make your skin zing.” — Cate Blanchett
95. Kate Hudson puts her face in an ice bath to revive her skin. How long does she stay submerged? “It depends how badly I want it,” she tells us.

96. Drew Barrymore multitasks with her beauty products: “I definitely still love to wear my lipstick on my cheeks. There’s symmetry in the color, I love that.”
97. Another trick from Drew? “I love when people highlight the corners of your eyes, and all of a sudden you’re like, ‘Oh my God! What did you just do?’”
98. Cameron Diaz swears by this quick fix for a pimple, says her makeup artist Gucci Westman. “She has a little lancer…you knick [the pimple] and then you apply Neosporin and Visine,” Westman explains. “It takes away the redness and the swelling.”
99. How to take a better picture, in one second: “An actress friend of mine shared a great trick. She told me to stick my tongue behind my teeth when I smile to keep from over-smiling. If you smile without doing it, sometimes your gums show a little too much. It’s an actor’s trick!” says Jessica Chastain.

100. Nina Dobrev has a 1-minute fix for clearer skin: “On Vampire Diaries right now, they give us these hot towels, so once you’ve taken off your makeup, they open up the skin and let it breathe. Heat to open up the pores is really good, and applying moisturizer right afterwards really revives and hydrates your skin,” she explains.
101. Jaime King’s skin care trick doesn’t require a celeb-sized budget: “You know how they have Clarisonics, which are really great? Using a really great hand towel when washing your face does the same thing, which costs nothing.”

Tricks and tips of beauty

Tricks and tips of beauty

Every one intend to have clean, pretty and smart. I try to include here tricks and tips of beauty.Details are given below:

1. How to get hair long

Pixie cuts, bobs and shoulder length hair can perfectly frame a face, but when it comes time to grow out strands for a new style, the wait can be a long one. Forget marking days off the calendar for a Rapunzel-inspired mane. Read on for the fastest way to grow your tresses, sans extensions.

Adjust Your Diet
“A healthy diet that incorporates a mix of protein and nutrients can improve the condition of your hair,” says Celebrity Hairstylist and NYC Salon Owner Julien Farel. He explains that balanced eating keeps follicles strong and hair from breaking easily. Dr. Gervaise Gerstner, MD, a board-certified NYC Cosmetic & Medical Dermatologist, advises to incorporate omega-3 oils. “I recommend salmon or supplements. Nuts are a good source, too, especially almonds.”

…But Don’t Over Do It
Dr. Gerstner says it’s important to keep weight stable and not yo-yo diet, as hair can be affected by extreme regimen changes, in addition to stress and hormone levels.

Get Smart About Styling
It’s well known that heat can hurt hair, so limiting the use of a flat iron to three times a week is best, says Dr. Gerstner. She also advises the limitation of sunlight (as it can strip the hair) and blow drying, adding, “A weekly deep conditioner masque is a good idea to keep hair as healthy as possible.” According to Farel, many hair care products include the same ingredients as detergents, so it is vital to choose wisely.

Try Vitamins and Conditioning Ingredients
“Phytantriol, arginine and fish oil, and biotin aid in the production of enzymes and hormones which can help stimulate hair growth,” says Farel, who suggests his “hero” product: Julien Farel Haircare Restore. The cleanse-treat-condition formula is designed to push regenerating anti-aging ingredients, like hyaluronic acid, deeper into the follicle, scalp and hair, which helps prolong the hair’s growth phase.

Dr. Gerstner recommends the use of supplements like Viviscal, which include biotin, vitamin C, and a special complex of shark powder known as AminoMar, to help aid hair growth and scalp stimulation.

Take It Easy
Because stress can affect hair, Dr. Gerstner recommends weekly deep tissue massages to relax body and mind. “The adrenals pump out extra cortisol when we are stressed, which leads to acne, skin inflammation, and possible hair disorders,” she says.

Or, you can always take some time off. “Your hair is a reflection of how you feel,” says Farel. “If you are healthy, or on vacation, your hair looks great, shiny and is easy to style.”
