Take Your Look from Work to Party Chic in 5 Minutes Flat
Quick Tips from Antonio Prieto Take Your Look from Work to Party Chic in 5 Minutes Flat.
Renowned stylist Antonio Prieto offers quick tips to change your look in minutes. Whether going on a date or to a holiday party, these fast, easy tricks will leave you (or at least your hair) ready for anything!
Short Hair: Pomade is key. A look like Victoria Beckham’s may be slightly unkempt during the day but in the evening quickly be made sleek and pieced out with pomade.
Medium Hair: Hot rollers or a curling iron will do the trick. This look on Katherine Heigl can be done before work with either and pulled back to a low bun during the day. When ready to leave the office the bun can be removed and hair can be shaken out, still retaining the curl from the rollers.
DEX New York Lip Gloss
One of my favorite lip gloss shades (aside from red) is that perfect pink coral. I’m always on the lookout for this shade. Pink coral looks amazing on any woman at any age and skin tone. It brightens my face and looks fresh. My latest discovery, or should I say, great find is: DEX New York Lip Gloss in Central Park West Guava. Aside from the gorgeous shade, I like the texture of this lip gloss: it’s not sticky or heavy, and it glides smoothly on my lips. The perfect time for me to apply this lip gloss is in the morning when I don’t feel like putting on a heavy lip gloss and all I want is just a subtle tint on my lips. I also use this as a primer or a base for a lipstick. It helps me achieve a sheer coverage.

Curél Targeted Therapy Fast-Absorbing Hand & Cuticle Cream
Hand Saver: With flu season in full force, we’re all aware of the importance of washing our hands to ensure they’re free from bacteria. Unfortunately, this increase in our daily wash routine is leading to a decrease in the softness of our hands. With the average woman washing her hands 10.8 times each day, there’s a need to re-hydrate our dry, cracked skin.
Luckily, Curél has you covered this winter with their Targeted Therapy Fast-Absorbing Hand & Cuticle Cream. Formulated with Curél’s unique cationic formula, the cream is specially designed to deliver moisture where skin needs it most. Dry spots of skin attract the formula to create a moisture lock, which holds protective emollients on skin longer and helps prevent the hydrating ingredients from rinsing away with hand washing.
