Seasoned pros show you three ways to streamline your routine—each for under $100

«

For gentle, color-safe haircare that won’t break the bank, stylist Shin An

from the Paul Labrecque Salon in New York City

suggests going both high-tech and green.

“You’re going to get more for your money at health-

food stores. Their products have fewer chemicals and protect hair from damage.” Meanwhile, state-of-the-art

dryers and brushes that won’t harm hair can now be found at great prices.

$6.45 1 Jason Volumizing Mousse: “i like this foam better than volumizing sprays as it doesn’t make hair sticky or crunchy. it gives good body and texture—and fights frizz in humid weather.”

$12 2 Nexxus Phyto Organics Transfigure Molding Paste: “everyone can benefit from a finishing cream, and this one is lighter than most and never feels greasy. because it’s water-based, it washes out easily.”

$32 3 Paul Labrecque Daily Condition: “i call this the silk route for hair. use it every day as a conditioner or for 10 minutes as a mask.”

$12.99 4 Conair Eco-Friendly Boar and Nylon Round Brush: “even coarse, curly hair gets really straight with this brush. The boar bristles smooth out the cuticles, and the short ones grip the tiniest hairs for maximum shine.”

$29.99 5 Belson Pro Ultra Lightweight Tourmaline Ionic Turbo Dryer: “ionic dryers dry hair faster and smoother. because this one’s 1875 watts, you’re going to get the heat you need without having to blast your hair for long. belson also gives you the best of both— a nozzle if you want to go straight and a diffuser to bring out your waves.”

$6.14 6 Kiss My Face Whenever Shampoo: “The lavender and aloe in this are like a facial for your scalp, while the sage and nettle stimulate hair growth. Since it’s sulfate-free, it won’t strip color.”

$5.87 1 Alba Deep Sea Facial Mask: “natural algae and kelp extracts smooth the skin; the kaolin clay draws out impurities without overdrying.”

$4.25 2 Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser: “This cleanses and moisturizes at the same time. it’s great for any skin type, including really sensitive.”

$55 3 Kate Somerville Goat Milk Cream: “The goat milk has nourishing proteins and amino acids to balance and hydrate the skin, while the lactose is a natural, gentle enzyme exfoliant.”

$15 4 Mustela Sun Lotion SPF 50: “i love this mineral sunscreen; it contains zinc, which calms and reduces inflammation.”

$15 5 Boots Eye and Lip Correction Serum: “The reason we develop so many lines around the eyes and lips is that we don’t have oil glands in those places. it’s essential to keep those areas moisturized.”

$4.09 6 Curél Original Formula Lotion: “i apply curél immediately after i get out of the tub; it seems to lock in the moisture and leaves my skin smooth and hydrated.”

Hollywood facialist Kate Somerville puts her money where her moisturizer

is: “It’s a given that advanced ingredients and technologies are

going to be expensive, but in a face cream, it’s worth it. Unlike cleansers,

you don’t rinse your moisturizer down the drain.” Somerville recommends

rounding out your regimen with multitasking serums and drugstore

staples to stay within the budget.

$4.99 1 Burt’s Bees Lip Shim-mer in Merlot: “if you want a stain that enhances your natural lip color, use this instead of lipstick.”

$10.95 2 L’Oréal Paris True Match Blush in Innocent Flush: “as with any drugstore brand, it’s advisable to choose peachy neutrals, which flatter most complexions. This pigment is so light, it’s virtually mistake-proof.”

$2.99 3 Maybelline Eyeshadow in Earthly Taupe: “matte taupe is a great everyday neutral that’s more versatile than a shimmer. mix with other colors if you want to tone them down.”

$22 4 Cargo OneBase Concealer + Foundation: “dab a few dots of this very creamy

concealer on the T-zone and blend outward, then apply a little extra wherever you need more coverage. The applicator is exceptionally efficient.”

$3.50 5 Milani Crystal Gloss for Lips in Secret: “i like this milky shade for a shiny, nude lip. To create a pouty mouth, use a little in the center of your lower lip.”

$9 6 Alison Raffaele Oil- Blotting Tissues: “adding more powder throughout the day or night makes your face mask-like. This fine, pliable paper will remove excess oil but won’t smear your makeup.”

$3.75 7 Prestige Lipliner in Shimmer: “This enhances your

lip contour no matter what shade you’re wearing. The key is to blend it properly so you never see the line.”

$3.49 8 Rimmel London Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil in Sable Brown: “a brown pencil is dark enough to give you definition, but it won’t make eyes look smaller the way black can. This one’s soft enough to use on the inside rim of the eye.”

$2.50 9 Desert Essence Lip Rescue: “This is neither too shiny nor waxy—perfect when mixed with your lip pencil for a natural day look.”

$22 10 Sue Devitt Eye Intensi-fier Pencil in Victoria Falls: “This inky blue flatters all eye colors

and brightens the whites. use it as a pencil, or smudge it with the sponge tip for a dramatic look.”

$4.31 11 CoverGirl Remark-able Mascara in Very Black: “a deep, rich black—and the brush separates the lashes well. it’s smudge-proof but easy to remove. i also use it on the bottom lashes for evenings.”

$3.50 12 Milani Crystal Gloss for Lips in Hush-Hush: “i like that this dark gloss has neither glitter nor shimmer.”

$6.99 13 Revlon ColorStay Eyeshadow in Sultry Smoke: “The perfect palette for a smoky eye: There’s gray, navy, black, and a slightly lavender shimmer that’s great for highlighting.”

The thought of a clementine-colored lip might strike you as tarty and intimidating, but have no fear. “Most of us can pull off a red-orange,” says makeup artist Jun Funahashi, who created the looks on these pages. “You just have to find your best shade.” The key is a clean, precise application: Exfoliate lips with a damp washcloth, apply color, and top off with a same-shade liner.MC RECOMMENDs: (1) Giorgio Armani Armanisilk High Color Cream Lipstick #13, (2) shiseido The Makeup shimmering Lipstick in sL10, (3) Make Up For Ever Lipstick #201 (on model), (4) Chanel Rouge Allure in Exotic, (5) Revlon Renewist Lipcolor in Coral Fixation

This fall, inky polishes migrate from toes to fingertips. As long as nails are kept short and round, the look exudes authority and old-school glam. Aim for a perfect paint job,

whether at a salon or at home, by treating cuticles with a pre-cision polish remover like Sephora’s Nail Polish Corrector Pen.

MC RECOMMENDs: (1) Chanel Nail Polish in Tulipe Noir, (2) sally Hansen Nail Lacquer in Navy Venom, (3) OPI Nail Lacquer in Can You Dig It (on model),

Multiple textures ensure this graphic ’60s look stays glam, not garish. Funahashi uses a bright liquid along the lashline

and a less vibrant powder across the lid. “The trick is to keep the rest of your face looking bare and fresh,”

she says. “Cheek and lip colors shouldn’t compete.” MC RECOMMENDs: (1) CoverGirl Eye Enhancers

HolY mole-Yworried about melanoma, the suspiciously spotted Meredith Bryan strips down for a full-body mole check It’s 3 p.m. on a Wednesday, and all I’m wearing are my plum silk panties with chartreuse lace trim. A middle-aged blonde named Maddie is coaxing me into poses (“Like Twister,” she says with a dark laugh) while taking my picture with a hand-held Canon. Click, click. Maddie moves in closer (“You’re so fair that it’s hard to focus the camera,” she says). I stifle a nervous laugh and struggle to keep my balance as she zeroes in on my backside. I can’t believe I’m doing this. Finally, she tells me to put my hospital gown back on.

I’ve come to Maddie because of skin cancer. When you’re as pale as I am and have as many moles “as a 45-year-old” (to quote my dermatologist—I’m 30), a

discreet visual once-over no longer cuts it. Especially if you’ve spent your college years roasting during spring breaks. Mad-die is a nurse for MoleSafe, a clinic affili-ated with NYU Langone Medical Center in Manhattan. She tells me that mole-map-ping, which originated in New Zealand, is catching on in the U.S., where melanoma is the most common form of cancer among late 20-somethings, according to the Skin Cancer Foundation. (Scarily, its incidence is rising faster than any of the seven most common forms of cancer.) The process is . . . thorough. After Maddie photographs every inch of my dermis—including the undersides of my bare breasts, which requires that I clutch and lift them, Janet Jackson style, and yes, I’m now regretting the French-hooker panties and my lilac nail polish—a grid of my pasty body parts floods her computer screen, all captured at extremely close range under fluorescent light from their least flattering angles (is that bacne?). She

explains apologetically that these aren’t meant to be glamour shots before whip-ping out the camera yet again, this time to individually document each potentially worrisome mole with a dermoscopic lens pressed against my skin. She hunts down 33 suspects in total, each asymmetrical, irregular in coloring, or just darker than the rest, and after “mapping” their loca-tions on a 3-D mannequin on her screen, she enlarges them one by one, magnified by a factor of 10, for my viewing pleasure. “Beauty marks” no longer, they look grotesque, jagged-edged, and alive, like mold festering under a microscope.

Several days later, I call Dr. David Polsky, a skin cancer specialist at NYU Langone, who is now intimately familiar with my moliage and the stretch marks on my breasts. I blush over the phone as he tells me he has reviewed my photos. He doesn’t think I have cancer . . . yet. I do have three “atypical nevi” (rhymes with Levi) on my back, so he suggests I come back in three months so he can see if they’ve changed—a telltale sign of melanoma. I’m relieved he’s caught these malicious-sounding nevi. I’m also relieved that, while my afternoon of nudity will haunt me at future appointments with my dermatologist (who will receive a copy of the photos), I won’t need another rendezvous with Maddie for at least a year or two. Which leaves me plenty of time to buy more sensible panties.

but these enzyme levels drop as you get older. moy suggests supplementing your body’s own supply with serums and creams fortified with dna repair enzymes from natural plant sources like plankton. “within hours, you can measure the results of putting more on your skin,” says moy.

previous post-sun regimens relied heavi-ly on microdermabra-sion and acid peels to remove dry, discolored, “damaged” skin, but there’s not enough evi-dence to show that it repairs dna, says moy. “exfoliation temporarily

Screen SaverSsunscreen bottles are getting a face-lift this year, due to new FdA regulations that require both UVA and UVB protection label-ing. Why isn’t good old sPF enough? this number measures only uVb, which is par-tially responsible for sunburn, discoloration, and some skin cancers. longer-wavelength uVa rays penetrate deeper, contributing to wrinkles and melanoma, the deadliest type of skin cancer, according to american academy of dermatology (aad) president elect dr. ronald moy. “we’re now finding

vitamin D-DaYIf it seemed like everyone suddenly became vitamin d deficient overnight, that’s because new research linking its low levels to everything from heart disease to depression has forced physicians to re-evaluate daily require-ments. turns out, vitamin d isn’t actu-ally a vitamin but a hormone the skin produces when exposed to sunlight.

“having low vitamin d is like not having enough insulin or thyroid hor-mone. it’s a disease state,” explains los angeles endocrinologist dr. sarfraz

Zaidi, author of Power of Vitamin D. in the past decade, we’ve discovered that vitamin d does more than just help with calcium absorption and healthy bone mainte-nance; it helps with the natural turnover of cells. d deficiencies slow down cell death, so damaged cells linger and can mutate into tumors and cancer, Zaidi adds.

the old daily requirement of 600 inter-national units (to prevent osteoporosis and rickets) is not enough to protect you from this deficiency, but don’t start sun-worship-ping just yet. a new recommended dosage has not been established because, like thy-roid hormone or insulin, vitamin d is not a one-size-fits-all pill. “there has been a lot of research from boston university professor dr. michael holick about the importance of uV exposure for vitamin d, but he’s funded by the tanning industry,” says chapas.

aside from holick and his followers, most doctors don’t think the risk of skin cancer is worth the extra sun exposure (sunblock blocks vitamin d as well). instead, Zaidi suggests supplementing with vitamin d3 pills. ask your doctor for a 25 hydroxy vitamin d test to find out if you’re deficient.

that uVa may be as or more carcinogenic for melanoma,” he says. “tanning beds are pure uVa. more young women have skin cancer from using them.”

what’s inside the bottle is also getting an update, with new liquid formulas (per-fect for oily summer complexions) hitting shelves now. but note that these typically contain chemical sun filters, and if your skin is extra sensitive or already slightly charred, anti-inflammatory zinc oxide can help soothe irritation while physically blocking uVa and uVb, says new York city dermatologist dr. anne chapas. “as chemical sunscreens [like parsol 1789, oxybenzone, homosalate, octocrylene, and octisalate] absorb uV light, they’re also breaking down,” explains chapas, who prefers physical blocks because they don’t need to be reapplied as often.

chapas also suggests boosting your block potential with antioxidants. “they play a key role in reversing sun damage,” she

makes the skin look better, but the Fda is now investigating whether repeated peeling makes you more susceptible to deeper damage.” he also cautions that certain active ingredients can negate a sunscreen’s efficacy, making you more vulnerable. “if you put on benzoyl peroxide with sunscreen, it will inactivate the pro-tection. glycolic acids with sunscreens could have bad effects, too. we can’t explain why we’re seeing so many skin cancers now. sometimes doctors blame it on lifestyle or ozone depletion, but it could be because of the products we’ve recommended for the past 20 years.”

says. however, new research presented at this year’s aad meeting shows that some antioxidants can become harmful when exposed to sunlight, magnifying uV dam-age instead of diminishing it. one safe and effective antioxidant is vitamin e, which is naturally secreted by the body (in sebum) to protect the skin and is a key ingredient in neutrogena’s helioplex360 (found in its spectrum+ and age shield+ repair spF 55) and coppertone sport with replenishing antioxidants sunscreens.

WHAT IF YOU COULD change your outlook and your appearance in just over a week? Less stress, better sleep, fewer lines? As a dermatologist and psychiatrist, I’ve learned that there’s much more to looking great than just retinol and Botox. Treating issues psychologically is as essential as treating them topically. And I always tell my patients that if they focus on just the mind or just the body, they’re missing half the equation. This simple nine-day plan (start on a Saturday to include two weekends) is a vacation for your skin—enough time to establish new, healthier habits and notice a real difference in how you look and feel.

DAYS9The fast track to a clearer, brighter, smoother complexion (P.S. It doesn’t involve a bundle of $500 creams)

TO GLOWING SKIN

By MC’s resident Beauty Shrink, Amy Wechsler, M.D., author of The Mind-Beauty Connection

DAY 1: SIMPLIFYWhen patients first come to me, I often ask them to bring in all their products so I can see what they use and where they may be going wrong. I see too many women who overtreat and overscrub their faces. Instead of boosting their natural glow and cell turnover, they end up causing irrita-tion and inflammation. The bottom line: Don’t overdo it. For these nine days, stick with a simple skincare regimen that includes cleansing and moisturizing twice daily, plus sun-screen during the day. That’s step one. Step two is finding some of that free cosmetic medicine: sleep. To get what you need, follow this ritual every day of your program, and, ideally, every day thereafter:

4 to 6 hours before bed: Stop ingest-ing any caffeine.

2 to 3 hours before: Avoid eating. Digesting food can keep you awake.

60 minutes before: Turn off all elec-tronics and dim the lights. Mental stimulation (especially from the nightly news and Sopranos reruns) and light signal your brain to stay alert.

30 minutes before: Drink something soothing, like chamomile tea, warm milk, or a splash of a relaxing nightcap (not a glass—too much alcohol can wake you up later). Try a warm bath or light reading (no work!).

5 minutes before: Make sure your bedroom is dark (or wear an eye mask), quiet (a white-noise machine or ear-plugs can help), slightly cool, and free of distractions (clutter, pets, work piles). TIP: Change your sheets and pillow-cases at least once a week; there’s no sense in applying beauty creams at night if you’re cozying up to breakout-causing bacteria.

DAY 2: RELAXSex, especially in a loving, secure rela-tionship (not the “Is he going to call me?” kind) is a beauty bonus. Dr. David Weeks, a clinical neuropsychologist at Scotland’s Royal Edinburgh Hospital, found that sex helps you look four to seven years younger. He attributes this to significant reductions in stress, greater contentment, and better sleep.

Frequent sex also releases estrogen, which is great for your skin. (“Frequent,” meaning twice a week.)

The icing on the cake is that you can burn about as many calories having sex as you would weight training or walking at 3 mph. And sex might even be as good as a sleeping pill: The relax-ing endorphins released during orgasm stick around for five minutes to an hour afterward, which may explain why people too stressed out to sleep drift off more easily after sex. If you don’t have a partner right now, then pleasure yourself. You can reap the same benefits.

DAY 3: GO GREENEven if you live in a big city, the air indoors is more toxic than out. Invisible pollutants can come from your elec-tronics, furniture, carpets, paints, and heating and air-conditioning units. So getting outside is one of the best things

you can do to lessen your exposure to pollutants and other elements that trigger free radicals. Just taking a long walk will suffice.

Step outside (leave your iPod behind!) and take in your surround-ings. When you find yourself becoming hyperaware and “in the moment,” I want you to think about what you’re thankful for. It can be general or spe-cific: your health, family, work, last birthday party, and so on. Let your mind and memory run free. This is a great way to reduce stress while appre-ciating where you are right now.

DAY 4: EAT CLEANFor a better complexion, eat a varied diet that’s heavy on fruits, veggies, whole grains, legumes, nuts, and calcium- rich foods. The advice really hasn’t changed from when you were younger. What has—the incentive. Now you know that the right diet can

help your skin—reducing inflammation and dryness, and even preventing aging. That said, let’s focus today on eating as cleanly as possible—no artifi-cial or processed anything. That includes refined sugar, soda (both diet and regular), and processed meats and cheeses. It can take time to wean your-self off highly refined carbs, but tune in to how your body feels today. TIP: Drink water or green tea through-out the day. Try sparkling water and add a splash of natural (no sugar added) cranberry juice, which is rich in antioxidants. Drop in a wedge of cucumber, lemon, lime, or melon for added flavor.

DAY 5: MAKE A MOVEI believe everyone (no matter how busy) should find time to fit in 30 min-utes of physical activity at least three days a week. A gym class, power walk-ing with friends, dancing . . . there are

lots of options. Don’t make it a chore, and don’t make yourself miserable by doing something you hate. Exercise should be enjoyable, something you look forward to every day.

Just last year a study showed that exercise helps reverse aging at the cellular level. A team of Canadian and American researchers looked at the effects of six months of strength train-ing in volunteers aged 65 and older. They took small biopsies of thigh-muscle cells from the subjects and compared them with muscle cells from volunteers whose average age was 22. After strength training, the elderly volunteers’ genetic fingerprint was reversed nearly to that of the younger people. TIP: You’ve just hit the halfway mark. Give yourself something special. Block out one full hour today to do anything you want. Veg in front of the TV, go shopping for some new makeup,

Nap Quest

How to get more beauty sleep: Set aside 30 minutes total—10 minutes to fall asleep

and 20 minutes for the actual nap. Use an alarm. Avoid napping past 3 p.m. If you nap too late in the

day, you can disrupt your nighttime sleep.

THE BEAUTY BUFFETEight soothing foods for less stress and better skin

1BERRIES, ANY BERRIES They’re great at countering the skin-

damaging free radicals generated by stress. When the pressure is on, eat them one by one (like healthy M&Ms).

2 GUACAMOLE Avocados are loaded with B vitamins, which stress

quickly depletes and which your body needs to maintain nerves and brain cells. Plus, their creaminess comes from healthy monounsaturated fat—the same kind that makes olive oil good for your skin.

3 NUTS Just an ounce of walnuts will help replace those stress-depleted

B’s; Brazil nuts give you a whopping amount of selenium and zinc, which prevent dry, itchy skin; almonds boost your vitamin E, which helps fight cellular damage linked to chronic stress and may even lower your blood pressure by helping your arteries relax.

4ORANGES According to a recent study, people who took 1000 mg

of vitamin C before giving a speech had lower cortisol levels and blood pressure than those who didn’t.

5 ASPARAGUS Each tender stalk is a source of folate, a B vitamin that

appears to be essential for mood and proper nerve function in the brain.

6 SALMON AND OTHER FATTY FISHThe omega-3 fatty acid in salmon

(called DHA) isn’t just good for your skin. Studies show people who eat ample amounts of DHA have a much lower incidence of depression, aggressive-ness, and hostility. Some people report lifts in mood within days or even hours of eating omega-3-rich meals.

7 SPINACH Happy greens (the dark, leafy ones) like spinach are a quick

way to get your daily vitamin A, which helps revitalize the skin’s surface by increasing cell turnover.

8 DARK CHOCOLATE No one knows for sure why we crave chocolate.

It could be one of its hundreds of compounds, including phenylethylamine (a chemical that triggers feelings similar to falling in love), or simply the taste. What we do know is that the antioxidant flavonols in dark chocolate (check labels; you want 70 percent or more cacao) help keep blood pressure steady and your mind sharp. They also may help curb cellular damage caused by stress.

The following summer, I signed up for an Orange County surf camp at San Onofre beach. The very first wave I caught washed me up on the rocky shore and pushed my bikini top down to my waist. Coughing up water, I started having doubts. Was getting pounded really the path to enlighten-ment? Searching for answers, I hiked my suit up, wrested my board back, and struggled to paddle out again. But in no time my arms fell limp, and I was too weak to get past the inside of the break where the waves crash. The next day, I went out into the water again, and again the day after that. Soon, I was hardly aware that I was wearing a bikini, much less worried about how I looked in it. Catching a wave became my central focus, even if most of the time it took hours to get one.

As the week went on, my fear sub-sided. The pride I felt in standing up on my board for the first time was indescribable. The next day, I woke up with excitement instead of anxiety and loosened up around my campmates. I even found myself hanging out with the instructors who’d seemed unap-proachable just days before.

I ’LL NEVER FORGET MY FIRST

time. Sixteen years old and perched on the sandy dunes of Cape Cod under a setting sun, I

watched the surfer drop into an indigo Atlantic wave and glide all the way to shore. Mesmerized—no, obsessed—I beelined to the convenience store the very next day for surf magazines, on a mission for some kind of clue how to be just like the goddess I’d seen in the water. Yet, as I looked at the taut, tanned bodies slashing through waves in the glossy pages of Surfing, it was suddenly obvious that I had been born in the wrong place, and probably to the wrong family, too.

Like quintessential California girl Cameron Diaz or Blue Crush–era Kate Bosworth, surfers have always struck the perfect balance: They look like they have no problem eating dinner in a bikini or throwing down at Pipeline’s famous waves in Hawaii. Unlike the cute, good-girl archetypes of the past, the modern Gidgets represent radi-ance and self-assurance. How did they get so hot? And could I, with my pasty New England skin and dull-brown, shoulder-length hair, ever come close?

Clearly, the sexiness and sense of adventure I sought came from some-place inside. Before a golden tan sets in or hair starts bleaching, there’s a mental shift that happens when you paddle out for those beginner waves. The secret to surfing’s transformative power stems from facing your fears and challenging yourself physically, according to Wende Zomnir, execu-tive creative director for Urban Decay makeup, and an avid surfer. It gives you “confidence in your own skin,” she says. “Sometimes it’s not that fun, like when you get caught inside a heavy set of waves breaking on you. But if you have the power to deal with the conse-quences of being out there, there’s this inner beauty that’s cultivated and shines through.”

It was true: Headed into my senior year of high school at the time, I was deeply nervous about leaving home

Sporting sun-kissed hair and skin, surfer girls are the beach babes we all wish we could be. Will surf lessons reveal the secret to their sex appeal?

I ’ve always had healthy, wash-and-wear hair—long, blonde, straight, and low-maintenance. It’s the kind of hair you take for

granted until you move to L.A., city of Paris Hilton–style extensions. When women here began asking if my hair was real, I suddenly felt lucky and upped my game with products. I moussed, smoothed, and glossed on

a daily basis. But within four years, the balance of power shifted. Damage had crept up on me like the California tide, and without those products, my hair looked frayed and dull.

When a top stylist advised me to lop off the same amount of length that Gwyneth had, I winced as if he’d already made the cut. Visions of all the preppy girls from high school—with their

polo shirts and bobbed hair—sent me into denial. I decided that cutting would be cheating, like choosing lipo over the gym. Instead, I tried frantically to repair my hair. I let it air-dry, stretched the months between highlights, and slept in deep conditioner—but nothing stopped my split ends from splintering higher. So I sought out stylist Corey Powell at The Salon by Maxime in Beverly Hills. The man behind the hair masks that keep the manes of Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore, and Renée Zellwegger healthy between shade-shifting movie roles, Powell is best known for his all-natural “hair therapy” programs.

As he inspects my head, Powell tells me that damaged hair gets nicks in the surface of the cuticle. “These are like tiny dings in the hair’s protective armor that weaken the strand until it breaks,” he explains. Coloring, harsh shampoos, sun exposure, and heat styling can all cause this kind of dam-age, but since mine is concentrated in the lower five inches rather than at the crown, he suspects my product habit is largely to blame—especially my weakness for items laced with dimethicone, the most common form of silicone.

That smoothing ingredient acts as a barrier, sealing out moisture; it’s as adept at de-frizzing hair as waterproof-ing shoes (yes, it’s used for both). But there’s the rub. “If you inhibit the mois-ture content of the hair shaft too often, you end up with dry hair,” says trichol-ogist Philip Kingsley. However, silicone is so commonplace it’s hard to avoid. Kingsley recommends finding prod-ucts that list it low on the label and using them sparingly. But Powell sug-gests I go completely styling-product-free for my month of rehab. Am I at Promises for hair? I feel both betrayed by my products and anxious at the

thought of giving them up. Clearly, I need to make changes, so I commit.

To get my hair naturally silky again, Powell also prescribes twice-weekly scalp-treatment masks at his salon that consist of pomegranate and camellia oil, avocado, egg white, banana, honey, milk, and follicle-rejuvenating rose-mary. Once he applies the mask, Powell spends a heavenly five minutes brush-ing my scalp to increase blood flow and stimulate growth. “Anything you do to improve the health of the scalp will improve your hair,” he says. Then he uses the heat of a hair dryer to push the oils into my frayed, flyaway ends and protect them from shampooing. (Shampoo removes dirt and oil, but the fragile ends of the hair don’t get oily, so repeated washing dries them out.)

A fter three appointments, I have fewer flyaways and less frizz. My hair feels heavier but not weighed

down. (Powell attributes this improved density to the deposited proteins.) On the fourth visit, he’s able to blow it dry without detangling it first, and it doesn’t knot. By the sixth, my highlights are brighter. “You see more color variation in healthy hair,” Powell explains. So I follow his other guidelines, too: I switch to a sulfate-free shampoo, which is less likely to fade color; I start wearing a hat in the sun; and I stop showering in really hot water. Studies show that hair is more vulnerable to sun damage in very dry (or very humid) climates and loses more of its natural keratin in high-temperature water.

By month’s end, Powell pronounces the majority of my notches gone, and I’m amazed at the difference. My hair is legitimately soft without any styling aids, and naturally shiny. It took a while to get the hang of the pre-shampoo oil-and-blowdry ritual, but the results have me sold. I’m not sure I’ll keep it up at home, and I am going back to volumizing mousse, but it’s a greener, Powell-approved version from Aveda. Leaving the salon, I run into two friends, one of whom has extensions. They ooh and aah over my long, healthy hair, and this time, I feel like I’ve earned it.

Rocker chick or uptown girl: How do you translate your fashion sense into hair and makeup? Five designers share their beauty styling secrets By Ning Chao Photographed by Rebecca Greenfield

Fashion style: Sexy CEOBeauty PhilosoPhy: “The object of a runway collection is to heighten the senses and stage a show. I don’t want to do something that you would see on the street,” explains Thakoon Panichgul. “But in reality, it’s more chic to have a classic look you always do with your hair and makeup, and then just tweaking that a bit here or there depending on if you want to be edgier one morning or prettier the next.”Runway inteRPRetation: Monochromatic makeup with structured hair.

Fashion style: Flirty femmeBeauty PhilosoPhy: “I think makeup should be a little bit undone. I don’t want it too pristine and perfect,” says Tracy Reese. “Personally, I’m a little lazy with beauty. If I get my own brows and lashes on—and I only added mascara this year—I’m set. I’m not a spring chicken anymore, so I think doing my lashes every day is a good idea.”Runway inteRPRetation: Defined brows, major mascara, and a messy updo.aBout Face: “This is a modern take on ’30s makeup with a thinner, drawn-in brow,” explains Reese, who asked Maybelline makeup artist Char-lotte Willer to apply gloss to models’ eyelids to catch the runway lights. “We added shadow below the eyes so the shine would contrast with the smoki-ness underneath,” says Willer. “Since we’re not put-ting any color on the lid, we made the lashes spiky.” Mane event: “Tracy’s collection had a lot of layer-ing, bright colors, and prints, so I didn’t want to do anything too busy,” says TRESemmé hairstylist Jeanie Syfu, who created the resulting updo based on the designer’s drawing of a messy pompadour (but with extra height to add glamour). “In the ’80s, I was queen of the pompadour,” adds Reese.hands on: “There’s a lot of color in my runway collection, so I wanted blackish nail polish that would give just a little bit of edge,” says Reese,

who designed the shade Midnight in New York with Sally Hansen. “There’s an iridescent coat on top [Sally Hansen’s Hidden Treasure polish]. From one direction, the sparkles shine red, orange, pink; from the other side, they look green and blue. We’re showing almost all black shoes, so the dark nail just works with everything.”PoMP and ciRcuMstance: 1. TRESemmé 24 Hour Body Finishing Spray, $4.49. 2. Maybelline New York Shine Sensational Lip Gloss in Minty Sheer, $5.99. 3. Maybelline New York Define-a-Brow in Light Blonde, $6.95. 4. Maybelline New York Eye Studio Quad in Copper Chic, $9.99.

aBout Face: “The makeup was less ethereal this season,” explains Nars makeup artist Diane Kendal. “Inspired by samurai and surfers, Thakoon wanted to keep the faces very strong and beautiful without using a lot of makeup, so we went monotone with beiges and browns. We kept a luminous feel to reflect the warrior aspect. Highlighting strengthens the face without adding color, and I just focused on the brow- and cheekbones. With the runway lights, I didn’t want the whole face to look greasy.”Mane event: “The entire collection is body conscious, so I felt that the hair should be shaped

Beauty Matchmakers

“Coordinating lips, manicures, and pedicures is a trend this spring,” declares manicurist Deborah Lippmann, who painted the nails at seven shows this season, including Rodarte and Marchesa. Whether it’s pouf skirts and pompadours or ruby fingers and toes, the right hairstyle and makeup choice can be as important as the outfit itself. That’s why designers schedule hair and makeup tests days before their show date, just to make sure everything goes together.

Beauty

Fashion style: Red-carpet sirenBeauty PhilosoPhy: “The way you dress is an extension of yourself. The woman shouldn’t try to fit the dress,” explains Marchesa codesigner Georgina Chapman. “It’s the same with beauty. There’s nothing better than great skin. And with feather lashes as the focus on the face, we wanted a sleeker hairstyle. Hair down always feels more sexy and fun, but we didn’t want to cover up the fresh skin with a lot of hair.” Runway inteRPRetation: Luminous skin, dramatic lashes, and a clean updo.aBout Face: “Marchesa had a presentation, which is not the same as doing runway,” explains Nars makeup artist Talia Shobrook, who perfected com-plexions by mixing foundation with a liquid high-lighter. “You’re up close to the models, so you need them to look beautiful, but you don’t need that flash boom.” And according to Chapman, a presentation can’t be too over the top: “In some shows, the makeup is strong and complements the clothes, but this season’s theme [love and the opera

Fashion style: Rebellious rockerBeauty PhilosoPhy: “This season, Laura and I wanted the hair and makeup to reflect the collec-tion’s inspiration, which centered around the idea of burning and ruin,” says Rodarte codesigner Kate Mulleavy. “We looked at the California condor and its environment, which is a mangled, untamed landscape. The condor is very severe and stately, but at the same time, completely free and wild. We wanted to capture this with the beauty direction.”Runway inteRPRetation: Pale skin, vampy lips, and thick, wild hair.aBout Face: “The clothes are handmade and very delicate but with a lot of dark detailing, so I wanted to give the girls a real tough edge,” says

MAC makeup artist James Kaliardos. “This isn’t about being pretty or red-carpet-ready; it’s more of a gang girl with black tattoo-like lips. You can’t wear an Oscar de la Renta dress and have black tattooed lips. I mean, I love Oscar de la Renta, but Rodarte is different. It’s like they came from a menacing world that still has a royal glamour to it.” Mane event: Aveda hairstylist Odile Gilbert wrapped black wool around braided hair to create a net effect that was inspired by Native American headdresses. “We used black because we thought it would be stronger—especially on a blonde girl. It looks more sophisticated,” says Gilbert. daRk side: 1. MAC Lip Pencil in Beet, $13. 2. Aveda Pure Abundance Hair Potion, $23. 3. Lippmann Collection Lacquer in Funky Chunky, $35. 4.

Fashion style: Modern heiressBeauty PhilosoPhy: “I wanted to play off the icy pastel colors of the clothes,” explains Michael Kors, who listened to Lady Gaga’s The Fame on a loop during his hair and makeup test. “I didn’t want the

look to be too sweet, so we made sure to keep it spare—almost ’90s with a cool, graphic edge.” Runway inteRPRetation: Bright eyes, slick hair.aBout Face: “Michael showed me a picture of Lady Gaga with a white lip, but I’m not a fan of white lipstick, so I made the mouth more silvery vio-let,” says Shiseido makeup artist Dick Page. “I also picked up pastels from the collection and amped them up—a lavender fabric became the amethyst shadow. Michael gives me the track and I remix it.”Mane event: “The direction Michael gave me was for something graphic with a lot of shine,” says T3 stylist Orlando Pita. “He wanted to use these clear plastic headbands on every girl, and we were either going to do a ponytail or leave the hair down, but we did a ponytail last spring. I parted the hair on the right because Michael said that if he were sketching, he would draw the part on the right.”RainBow BRight: 1. Shiseido Perfect Rouge Tender Sheer Lipstick in RS 326, $25. 2.

“For years, women have abused their hair by choosing prod-ucts based on their desired final look—not their natural hair type,” says Jeni Thomas, Ph.D. and senior scientist for Pantene. This means your strands get only a fraction of the attention (and ingredients) they need. From fine and straight to coarse and curly, each texture is so structurally varied that it requires its own products and stylers. Guided by Thomas—and based on her vast research—Pantene recently overhauled its entire line to address specific follicular concerns. Here, we grill a score of top stylists on how to best work with the hair you have.

THE WASH: “product buildup means greasier scalps and eventually limper hair,” notes thomas. wash away residue daily with a deep-cleansing shampoo and repair split ends with a light conditioner. THE STYLERS: choose mousses and gels with vitamins that will strengthen weaker fibers. avoid rich, silicone-heavy serums and maintain staying power with a flexible-hold hairspray. THE TOOLS: for instant volume, dial back abrasive back-combing and do the bulk of your styling with hot tools. “you can fake natural

waves by using two differently sized curling irons,” notes Nyc-based hair guru ric pipino, who styles Naomi watts and diane kruger. finger-tousling is best for delicate strands, but a metal barrel brush heats up quickly when blowdrying to give hair more body.THE CUT: “go for ’70s glamour with a chic anne hathaway shoulder-length style,” recommends pantene stylist danilo, who counts the Alice in Wonderland star and gwen stefani as regular clients. most important for shorter coifs: regular trims to prevent limp layers.

FINE“Fine hair is made up of half the proteins of thicker textures,” says Thomas. But in the quest for added oomph, most fine-haired women overdo it with styling aids, causing their slight strands to fall flat under the added weight.

MC Recommends: pantene pro-V flat to Volume shampoo and conditioner, $3.99 each; Neutrogena triple renewal body boosting foam, $6.99; l’oréal paris glossy style Volume gel, $4.99; blow blow out hair spray, $19.75; denman squargonomics brush, $15; t3 twirl 11⁄4" curling iron, $119.

DaMagED“More than 60 percent of women in the U.S. color their hair,” says Thomas. “This strips the hair’s protective layers.” Translation: Dyed locks need lots of TLC.

THE WASH: “humidity isn’t the only culprit behind frizzy hair. entering and exiting humid environments also causes hard-to-handle volume and wispies,” says danilo. jump-start your fight on frizz with moisturizing shampoos and conditioners—this type of hair absorbs nutrients most efficiently when wet. THE STYLERS: on the flip side, medium and thick hair is also most fragile when waterlogged. protect weak cuticles—which make up the scale-like outermost layer of the hair

shaft—from heat-styling with heavy smoothing creams containing ingredients like amino acids that help weigh down flyaways.THE TOOLS: “paddle brushes do wonders for unruly hair,” notes pipino. look for an ionic flatiron with ceramic plates to bond broken cuticles back near the hair shaft. THE CUT: opt for long layers to get even fullness, but avoid thinning shears. “most stylists use these improperly and splice split ends, causing more frizz,” warns pipino.

MEDIUM TO THICK“Medium and thick hair absorb 40 percent more water than other types,” says Thomas. This means frizz in humid climates and scorched ends in dry ones.

MC Recommends: john frieda frizz-ease smooth start shampoo and con-ditioner, $5.49 each; aveeno Nourish + style smoothing crème, $6.49; aveda light elements texturizing creme, $24; coppola curved Vent brush, $30; remington frizz therapy iron, $50.

MC Recommends: dove intensive repair shampoo and conditioner, $3.76 each; kérastase chronologiste kit, $145; samy heat guard protection spray, $4.99; goody tourmaline brush, $6.99; conair infiniti tourmaline ceramic ionic hair styler, $34.99.

THE WASH: “chemically treated hair doesn’t grab onto conditioners like regular hair because it loses more than 70 percent of its outer-ingredient-absorbing layer during processing,” says thomas. cleanse and condition with vitamin- and mineral-fortified products that will repair this barrier and prevent color fading. THE STYLERS: “a recent study just found that the eye is drawn to the shiniest spot on a person’s hair. this is bad news for women with dull, dyed hair,” says danilo. use heat-

protective styling products daily—environmental stresses, like the sun, also fry fibers. light serums offer a quick fix for strands lacking shine.THE TOOLS: “tourmaline blowdryers are much kinder to your hair because they drastically reduce drying time,” notes danilo. protect roots by holding the dryer six inches from the scalp.THE CUT: “thanks to lady gaga, geometric cuts are making a big comeback,” says pipino. “these chic bobs work well on stressed-out hair that’s in need of a trim.”

THE WASH: hydration is key for these thirsty locks. skip regular conditioners in favor of leave-ins, and use a hydrat-ing mask with ingredients like shea or cocoa butter at least once a week.THE STYLERS: “i tell clients with straightened hair to sleep on a silk pillowcase to reduce breakage,” says ursula stephen, who gets paula patton red-carpet-ready. women with salon-created styles can use repairing wrap lotions, while those with natural hair should treat

themselves to monthly at-home scalp conditioners and opt for snag-free seamless combs.THE TOOLS: “you don’t need intense heat every day, so choose an iron with a gauge on it,” says stephen. thinner, rounded flatirons are best to smooth hair at the root.THE CUT: “regardless of your length, volume, or texture, try a feature-enhancing architectural cut for summer,” says stephen, who also creates rihanna’s iconic styles.

COaRSE & CURLY“Coarse, curly hair can have 12 times as many twists as regular curly hair,” says Thomas, meaning that much more breakage. Thicker hair fibers and tight curls also trap oils at the roots, leaving some scalps dry and itchy.

++

CURLY“Every turn in a curl is a potential point of breakage,” says Thomas. Protect ringlets in these tight spots, and you’ll prevent coarser textures in the future.

MC Recommends: fekkai brilliant glossing shampoo and conditioner, $35 each; ric pipino curl-me curl enhancer gel, $21; pantene pro-V deep moisturizing treatment for curly hair, $5.99; hairart h-3000 ionic comb, $7.50; brazilian heat 11⁄2" flat iron, $80.

+ +

THE WASH: curly hair tends to be drier than straight hair because oil doesn’t slip down the strands as easily. this translates to fewer weekly washings (think once every three or four days) and more protein-packed products. weekly conditioning masks will also help soothe flaky scalps. THE STYLERS: “the curlier the hair is, the more it meshes together to catch ingredients,” says thomas, “so appli-cation is key.” light gels and serums work well combed through damp coils, while curl-defining sprays spritzed on the underside of hair

offer a crunch-free finish.THE TOOLS: “a detangling comb is your best friend,” says danilo. “i prefer to style hair with a lot of volume, and then tone down the look with a cuticle-smoothing tour-maline hot tool. i also apply finishing creams with my fingers to avoid brush-induced breakage.”THE CUT: “don’t choose a haircut that only works with straight hair,” says pipino. ask your stylist to cut your strands in their natural coiled state or look for a salon that specializes in textured hair.

pedicure—at home

“It was the big handbag, then the stiletto, and now the sandal is the

accessory,” says Elisa Ferri, lead nail tech for the Marc Jacobs and Ralph Lauren shows. “Even if you don’t want a bright pedicure, you need to keep your feet moistur-ized so cracks and flakes don’t distract from your fabulous shoes.” Whether you’re rocking Lanvin’s bejeweled spikes or Christian Louboutin’s gussied-up gladiators, Ferri and polish queen Essie Weingarten help you ace your next at-home pedi just in time for sandal weather.

Pat one foot dry—letting the other soak longer—and slough away calluses with an emery board or pumice stone.

“don’t use anything more abrasive, like a metal tool,” warns weingarten, “and avoid infection by not exfoliating any blisters, corns, or bunions.” soak the scrubbed foot in a clean bath while working on the other and dab a cotton ball soaked with hydrogen peroxide on any blisters after feet have been washed.

steP 2 TAKING SHAPEon dry feet, apply cuticle oil to the base of the nail—ferri swears by olive oil as a substitute—and push back cuticles with an orangewood stick. “only cut cuticles [with a cuticle trimmer] if they look like they’re about to tear the skin,” says ferri. file away extra length with an emery board, getting nails as short as possible with-out causing discomfort. keep the shape of the nail square and only use a clipper if nails are excessively long, as unnecessary cutting can cause brittle nails to split. “don’t round the corners, because this is where the strength of the nail comes from,” says weingarten. “a lot of people get ingrowns from trying to file the sides.”

steP 3 LACQUERED UPfrom moisturizing to ridge-reducing formulas, “the right basecoat can troubleshoot a lot of nail pigmen- tation and texture problems,” says weingarten. apply two coats of your shade of choice before finishing with a topcoat—preferably one with uv filters to prevent fading. allowing two minutes between each step will ensure

a streak-free application and expedite overall drying. to minimize the chance of smudging, apply polish first to the foot opposite your dominant

hand, then move to the other. finally, fix mistakes with a corrector pen or, after the lacquer has dried, by scraping away any excess in the shower.

steP 4 PERFECT HUE“when in doubt, choose coral,” says ferri. the blue and yellow undertones complement fair and warm skin alike. “your fingers and toes don’t need to match, but they should be somewhat complementary shades,” notes weingar-ten. if you opt for a neon purple to play off your kool-aid-colored espadrilles, choose a ladylike lavender or neutral mauve for your hands.

When should you start using eye cream?

Home to the thinnest skin on your body, the

eye area starts to show signs of wear

and tear by your 20s. Overtime in the office,

that extra glass of wine, and even

smiling all conspire to speed up the aging

process. The eyes are also the first place

people look on your face. But before you start avoiding every-one’s gaze, try these

eye-opening solutions.

Counting CrowsWearing sunglasses prevents squinting, which causes crow’s-feet, explains Dr. Robert Grant, plastic surgeon–in-chief at New York-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center. Sunscreen will also help, but the reason that you suddenly start to see fine lines in your late 20s and early 30s happens under your skin. “Once your body starts to decrease the amount of sebum it produces, you need to moisturize to keep the outermost keratin layer—our natural sun protection factor—intact,” explains Grant. “If you allow your skin to dry out, it will get more sun damage.” But before you start slathering on heavy eye balms that can clog pores and cause bumps, first try a lightweight gel.

If you already have noticeable crow’s-feet, vitamin A–derived retinols can help smooth them out by boosting collagen production in the area. Grant likes over-the-counter retinols (in contrast to stronger, prescription retinoids) because they’re less drying and easier to toler-ate. And for those who are especially expressive, Botox can help soften your smile lines. A topical formula is currently in FDA trials for usage around the eyes, but approval is still years away.

top shelfAs collagen thins and skin loses elasticity, the upper eyelids can droop, creating what Rosenberg calls “hooding.” While applying creams to the upper lids was once a no-no, new formulas specifically target this sag-ging area, tightening with caffeine or promoting collagen production with peptides. However, if you’re prone to dry skin, Hirsch cautions against caffeine-based creams because they dehydrate in order to de-puff and firm. “You’re good for two hours, but then you look like death,” she says.

If topical creams aren’t enough for your tired-looking lids, Rosenberg sug-gests two surgical options: trimming away the excess skin at the lashline or an endoscopic brow-lift (cost: $2,000 to $7,000 for each procedure). With gravity’s pull, eyebrows fall as we get older, and “as the brow gets lower, the more skin droops,” Rosenberg says. Raising the brow with tiny hairline incisions lifts the upper eyelid skin, making eyes appear more open and youthful. “It’s a 30-minute procedure, and the results last for a decade.” Now that’s foresight.

Bright ideaThere are typically two causes of dark circles: an actual darkening of the skin due to genetics and sun damage, or shadows created from sunken valleys above the cheekbones. For both prob-lems, New York City dermatologist Dr. David Rosenberg recommends inject-ing fat or Restylane to plump the hollowness (cost: about $4,000 for potentially permanent fat and about $1,500 for Restylane, which lasts up to two years). And since the skin here is almost transparent, “fat bleaches out the area since it’s pure white.”

Brightening formulas can also even the overall skin tone but must be combined with daily sunscreen use to prevent further darkening. Hirsch suggests layering antioxidant lycopene under sunscreen for extra protection.

Baggage handlingThe biggest reason for puffiness around the eyes is allergies, according to Cambridge, Massachusetts, dermatologist Dr. Ranella Hirsch. And rubbing will only thicken the skin and cause darkening, especially in pale complexions. “When you hear on the news that pollen counts are up, take an over-the- counter antihistamine for two or three weeks and you’ll prevent most swelling,” Hirsch says. For additional soothing, “de-puff with an eye roller. Keep it in the fridge, because the cooling effect really goes a long way.”

If you’re past your early 30s and have tried the antiallergy approach with-out success, your heavy baggage could be caused by gravity, not the change in seasons. “When you’re young, the fat below your eyes lives in a collagen baggie. But as you get older, the bag is weakened because you’re not produc-ing as much collagen and the fat herniates into a hound-dog look,” says Hirsch, who recommends using an injectable filler (she prefers Restylane) to firm the skin and hold up the fat pad. “For less than $500, you can get real results that last 12 to 15 months. You don’t need much product, and it can take years off of your face,” she says. A less invasive alternative is using an eye cream with peptides. “Peptides are the building blocks of the skin’s protein,” explains Hirsch. Applying them topically gives skin the ingredients to rebuild and hold the fat pad in place.

Good in RedNaked without her ruby lipstick, beauty queen Poppy King mouths off about the look that’s changed her life

I f I were a superhero, red lipstick would be my cape. With it, I feel confident, proud, empowered.

Without it, I’m invisible. My romance with red started when

I was 11. Growing up in Melbourne, Australia, with just one older brother, I was a somewhat lonely child. Pale and petite, I worshipped my glamorous mother and desperately wanted to be grown-up. Then I discovered lipstick. It was a blood-red Biba shade from my mother’s vanity, and it made me feel instantly feminine. Well, as womanly as one can be at 11.

The moment I finished high school, I started wearing red exclusively. I rushed out and bought a tube of Helena Rubinstein Autumn Red—a perfect, rich, brick hue that was creamy and subtly scented with French perfume. It symbolized freedom and my first opportunity to stake a claim to woman-hood. I felt such a surge wearing it that I started my own lipstick brand—called Poppy, naturally—just six months later. And for the next decade, I trav-eled the globe, shilling my tubes and pots. Being that this was the early ’90s, the genesis of the lip-gloss era, the

In general, fair coloring looks best with a bright, yellow-based red; blue-based, pinky reds suit darker skin and hair.

Red lipstick is best applied straight from the tube on smooth, bare lips. Blot with a tissue, then apply a dab more.

If you can’t find a lip liner that matches your lipstick exactly, then opt for some concealer around the outside of the lips prior to application.

To avoid looking like you’ve just walked off a stage (or out of the ’80s), always pair bold red lips with little or no eye makeup.

brand became best known for its glosses, despite my fierce personal loyalty to lipstick. I never did anything public—give a speech, have a business meeting, board an airplane—without my signature red.

When I shut down my line and moved to New York 12 years later, it was this devotion to red lipstick that helped me establish a community: Women—many of whom I now call friends—would approach me asking about the shade; children would smile at me; men would holler, “Work those red lips, gorgeous!”; shopkeepers and restaurant owners would remember me for my five-alarm pout. In some circles, people were more familiar

with my Lipstick Queen moniker (the name of my current lip-product line) than with my actual first name.

While this did wonders for my busi-ness, relationships were a different story. I could always trust that the men attracted to red lips weren’t afraid of a woman’s sexuality; rather, they encouraged it. But it’s a love/hate dynamic. One boyfriend, accus-tomed to a lipstick-free smooch before our outings, knew things were over when I opened my front door one afternoon, already clad in my red. And I’m never surprised when the same

men who initially adored the rouge ask me to stop wearing it as things get serious; they don’t appreciate the attention it draws. For me, it’s a no-brainer at that point: Lose the man, keep the lipstick.

Regardless of the changes in my love life, my work, my family, and even the hemisphere where I choose to live, red lipstick has never disappointed. It has been my constant. Wearing it has helped me find the courage to do many things that I never knew I was capable of, from starting my own businesses to writing books. Yet more important than the big stuff, this bold stroke has shown me that it’s in pur-suing simple everyday actions that true heroics can be found.

Ultimately, red lipstick is to women what sports cars are to men: an icon of lust that leaves them asking, Can I pull it off? To which I say, Of course you can.

i love all red-lipstick wearers. it’s like we belong to a club, smiling at each other knowingly when we pass.”

Dr. Fredric Brandt, “use products with occlusive moisturizers like petrolatum that trap moisture in, or emollients like palm oil that help restore the hydration barrier.” If you prefer nongreasy textures, look for oil-free formulas.

Tracie Martyn, a New York facialist, recom-mends sloughing away dull skin daily with an enzyme exfoliator or, for more sensitive skin, a moisturizing cleanser. “The cold makes blood vessels contract, which slows cell turnover and blocks moisture from reaching the skin.”

CONDITIONS: COLD & DRYConsider it a perfect storm: Low humidity, blustery winds, and plummeting temperatures team up with excessive indoor heating to cause severely dry skin during winter months for denizens of the Northeast and Midwest. These factors wear down the top layer of the skin that keeps moisture in, resulting in flakes, cracks, and irritation on the face and body.

CONDITIONS: COLD & DAMPIn coastal areas like the Pacific Northwest and Northeastern shoreline, windburn is the chief culprit for chapped, reddened skin. Dr. Jennifer Linder, a clinical instructor of dermatology at the University of California, San Francisco, warns, “In these regions, skin can start to develop a sallow quality because the wind dries out the top layer and traps the oilier lower lay-ers, leading to clogged pores and breakouts.” To combat this, use a retinol to increase cell turnover and opt for silk accessories when bun-dling up. “Most people have slight allergic reac-tions to wool scarves, and silk is just as warm and much gentler on the skin,” Linder says.

Marywynn Ryan, owner of the Skin by Marywynn spa in Portland, OR, encourages her clients to get monthly exfoliating facials and seal the skin afterward with products contain-ing ceramides or linoleic acid, which help create a barrier against the elements. At the very least,

she suggests starting the season with a facial in October and getting another one in January or February. Weekly at-home calming masques containing soothing ingredients like avocado oil, green tea, and calendula help reduce signs of inflammation, while daily applications of lip balm and eye cream with sun protection repair these more sensitive, exposed areas.

LOCAL GETAWAY The Palms Spa-Aveda, The Palms Hotel, Miami (thepalmshotel.com)

SKIN-DULGENCE The Perfecting Plant Peel ($50 for 15 minutes), an Argan leaf extract and aloe-vera-infused peel, mimics the skin-brightening benefits of a 30 percent glycolic peel—and includes a scalp or foot massage to pass the time.

CONDITIONS: HOT & DRYSeasonal temperatures may not shift signifi-cantly in the desert, but it’s still important to alter hydrating and cleansing routines as the mercury takes a slight dip. To do this, Linder, who also practices in Scottsdale, AZ, stresses the importance of moisturizing with products con-taining humectants like hyaluronic acid to repair the skin’s overbaked barrier. “But stay away from petrolatum and other comedogenic mois-turizers that can cause breakouts,” she warns.

Daily UV protection is also a must year-round, even indoors. “Many of my patients don’t realize UVA rays penetrate glass,” says Linder. Antioxidant-rich creams and serums help combat the free-radical damage done by sun exposure. And also hydrate from within. “The sun and lack of humidity dehydrate the body, as well as the skin,” adds Fender. “Consume a lot of water, essential fatty acids, and fish oils to reduce the appearance of wrinkles.”

CONDITIONS: HOT & HUMIDThe trick to prepping skin in perennially humid, hot regions like the Southeast and Hawaii is to adjust your antiaging routine as the tempera-ture and humidity levels drop. “People who can use retinoids in the summer because the air is damper might need to mix them with moistur-izers in the winter to prevent overdrying,” explains Brandt.

Tammy Fender, a Palm Beach, FL-based aesthetician, emphasizes the need to tone skin in such naturally moist environments. “Most cleansers are alkaline and disrupt the acid bal-ance of the skin, allowing natural hydration to escape,” she says. Use an alcohol-free toner in the morning to restore the skin’s proper pH balance, and spritz your face and neck with a toner mist containing a calming ingredi-ent, like chamomile, throughout the day.

F lanked by my duke buddies, bubbly Bellini in hand, i was lounging on a terrace chaise

under a sublime carolina blue sky. and then i felt it: the flush. first, little trickles of warmth streaming across my cheeks, and suddenly, a full crimson tide crash-ing over my face, staining everything in its wake ruby red. i was powerless to stop it. the sun and the booze were delicious provocateurs for my newly diagnosed skin disease: rosacea. and everyone at

the reunion—including the cool boys sipping cold brew whom i used to party with 15 years ago—could see it.

i never felt the need to hide my face back when i was a Blue devil. i had gorgeous skin. or, more accurately, normal skin—the kind you abuse (by crashing with your makeup on) and take for granted (since it looks the same the next day, anyway). But a few years ago, i noticed my dermis taking on the high color of an endurance athlete

RED IN THE FACE

over 14 million americans suffer from rosacea—

post-workout. my dermatologist—my former dermatologist—blew me off. i was being vain, said the crunchy doc, and simply needed to accept this ruddy face as my own. her prescription: green-tinted foundation. But as time passed, the cherry crush burned brighter. and then, a few months before my college reunion (of course), i noticed that a smattering of bumps—like zits but without the pus—joined the party on my cheeks. when my new derm diagnosed rosacea, i was relieved. Ha! i thought, i knew i didn’t have to accept being red in the face. But then he broke the bad news: there is no cure for this widespread, poorly understood, underdiagnosed condition that more than 14 million americans—mostly women of northern and eastern european descent between the ages of 30 and 60—have. no one, he said, knows what causes the chronic inflammatory disorder in which microvessels dilate, causing patchy red areas on the face and, eventually, acne-like bumps. (severe cases can also include chronic eye irritation, thickened skin, and rhinophyma, as terrifyingly illus-trated by the bulbous nose of w.c. fields.)

“we don’t know what causes rosacea, but we do know what makes it worse,” says dr. john wolf, chairman of dermatol-ogy at Baylor college of medicine in houston. “the most common triggers

are sun exposure, emotional stress, hot weather, alcohol, and spicy food.” triggers—which stress the body, stimulat-ing the sympathetic nervous system and activating the flushing—vary widely. i’ve found that steaming baths, intense exer-cise, hot weather, and white wine—all of which serve as my Prozac—instantly inflame my face. sadly, even if i don’t go all trigger-happy, my skin’s new normal state is a smoldering pink. i know it sounds petty, but the fact that i have to wear this disease on my face, that i may never have a mug that appears normal without the aid of drugs and cosmetics, is devastating.

while rosacea can’t be cured, it can be managed. i’m taking the antibiotic tetracycline—the same pills gobbled by teens plagued with cystic acne—coupled with metronidazole gel, which immediately

halted the disease’s progressive march (read: got rid of the unsightly red bumps). But because there are concerns about long-term antibiotic use and bacterial resistance, i’ll probably switch to oracea, a new oral anti-inflammatory drug that is the first to be fda approved specifically for treating rosacea. in clinical trials, it zapped papules and pustules without contributing to antibiotic or bacterial resistance, which is key, because no

don’t do much to put out the fiery red-ness. laser therapy is a final option, but because it’s expensive, temporary, and not guaranteed to work, my dermatologist doesn’t recommend it for me. yet. “it’s just an unpredictable disease,” explains wolf. “hopefully, with early treatment and active avoidance of the triggers, the rosa-cea won’t get worse. it can get better and then come back again. it can go away entirely. there is no guarantee; that’s the problem with a chronic disease.” and that’s what’s so diabolical about rosacea: in an era of silicone and botulism and lab-made collagen, where every cosmetic ailment, real and imagined, is curable, this is a disfigurement with no easy fix.

“rosacea is an embarrassing disease,” says dr. ted grossbart, a clinical psychol-

ogist and assistant clinical professor of psychology at harvard medical school who is a leading practitioner in the emerging field of psychodermatology. he works with rosacea patients using techniques such as relaxation, imaging, self-hypnosis, and focused psychotherapy around skin triggers. “if you’re going nuts, your skin goes nuts,” he explains of his mind-body approach. “often people can use those techniques and not only reduce the emotional impact of their rosacea, but also control their physiology and reduce the actual symptoms. if stress is a major trigger, then it would make sense that learning how to protect your body from stress would let you get a handle on your skin.”

the real hope for my face’s future lies in some recent groundbreaking investiga-tion into the causes of the disease. “inflammation, everybody agrees, is the key culprit in rosacea,” says wolf. “the most interesting research now is looking at what might cause this inflammation.” turns out, the skin produces a group of chemicals called cathelicidin peptides that defend the skin against infection; in rosacea patients, these antimicrobial peptides are abnormal and activate inflammation in the body. multiple drugs that inhibit the production of these abnor-mal peptides are now being tested. “yes, it’s promising,” says wolf. “and it’s a long way from a cure. But who knows?”

LEVEL 1 Basic BlackThe simplest smoky eye is just a bit of smudged pencil, drawn as close to the lashes as possible. “As long as there’s black liner on the inner rims of the eyes, I call that smoky,” says Fine, who recommends waxy kohl pencils for a smooth application. “The color can be any dark shade—even electric blue—but it should be strongest at the lashlines, then softly feather out. The inner rims of the eyes need to be black for intensity—it makes the lashes look blacker and the whites of the eyes brighter.”

LEVEL 2 Shadow MovementsEasy to blend and diffuse, powder shadows are the perfect tool for creating quick smokiness and the best option for crepey eyelids. “Pencil settles into fine lines because it’s waxy, while powders last longer and help set the color,” explains Fine. “Start applying shadow near the lashline, then blend out. Just make sure the shadow passes the creases. When you open your eye, it shouldn’t just be a black eye, like Uncle Fester from The Addams Family. You want the lid to be saturated with color.”

tutorial for easy smoky eyes, from

subtle shading to full-on flames

“Smoky eyes look great on everyone and are easy to create yourself because they don’t require perfection,” explains celebrity makeup artist Sam Fine, who readies Tyra Banks, Iman, and Vanessa Williams for the red carpet. Whether it’s just some smudged liner on the upper and lower lids or glamorous “shadows that gradate into a rainbow of color around the eye,” Fine teaches us how to apply the sultry like a pro.

LEVEL 3

Underworld “If you don’t have color below the eye, it’s just a smoky lid,” insists Fine. “The early ’90s were all about dark lids and nothing on the bottom, but now the trend is to surround the eye with smokiness, which is more forgiving because the shadow camouflages fine lines and puffiness.” To prevent stray shadow from falling on the cheeks, Fine suggests dusting some translucent loose powder under the eyes to act as a border and catch any debris.

LEVEL 4 Double ImpactWhen fanning the smoky flames, two shades are better than one. “If I’m using black shadow, I like to lay down gray at the perimeter of the black; if I’m using brown, I’ll feather it out with gold. The lighter shade gives more dimension—it’s what adds the oooh and the sexiness,” says Fine, who recommends using a soft, fluffy brush to blend the two hues. “You can drag the darker color out to the outer cor-ners of the eyes for a more exotic, cat’s-eye effect.”

LEVEL 5 High NotesTo enhance the browbones and make eyes look deeper and more mysterious, Fine suggests a sheer sweep of highlighter below the arches in a beigy shade that’s a couple notches lighter than your skin tone. “This is where you should use shimmer, but you don’t want it to look too white or ashy. Too much shine takes away from the depth because it’s reflective.”

LEVEL 6

Lashing OutFor the most intense smoky look, Fine recommends black liquid liner, mascara, and false lashes for extra drama. “The darker the shadow, the more lashes you’ll need because you’ll see them less. If you’re doing a black smoky eye, you’ll need a thicker, more exaggerated, lash,” he says. whether you use the latest volumizing mascara or a strip of falsies, “you don’t want shadow on the lashes, so do them last.”

Slumber PartyEven if overtime and anxiety are cutting into your sleep schedule, almost a third of your life will be spent in bed. To get the most of these hours, a trend that began in europe five years ago is now appearing stateside: beauty bedding. Joining the bevy of night creams and linen sprays, magniflex’s new aromatherapy bed infuses soothing lavender oil into the mattress and pillows. Forget to apply lotion before bed? Skin-softening aloe vera and soy plump Natura’s foam pillows and mattress pads; they’re also in Hollandia’s sheets (along with silk protein). Peptide-rich copper fabrics stave off wrinkles and sagging, while antimicrobial silver pillowcase stitching and coolmax fabric (yes, the same cool-max that your workout-wear is made of) prevent pimples. “Wicking moisture away from the body is important while you’re sleeping, too,” says slumber expert Dale read, president of the Specialty Sleep association. “it’s better for the skin because you’re not sleeping in a pool of perspiration.” Sweet dreams, sleeping beauty. —Ning Chao
