Today's Fab Tip:
"[H]old back loose stands in a chic way with a pin that complements your hair color!"
-- Taken from People Style Watch magazine, October 2013, page 204.
This is a great way of making a loose, messy bun look just that much more fabulous, and it keeps your hair out of your face. Using brightly colored bobby pins is fun, but matching the pins to your hair color keeps your hairstyle more sophisticated.

Fabulous Tip of the Day: Berry Blush
Today's Fab Tip:
"A berry blush livens up your whole face. Brush on the apples of cheeks; sweep out to the sides of your face."
-- Taken from Seventeen magazine, October 2013, Michelle Phan's Beauty Confidence Tricks on page 123.
Berry is great for a natural-looking flush, especially in fall, but be sure to choose a lip color that doesn't compete with it. You don't want your face to look too red, after all.

Fabulous Tip of the Day: Dewy Skin
Today's Fab Tip:
"For a fresh, dewy complexion, avoid powder overload; apply it only to those areas prone to shine, like your nose, chin, and forehead."
-- Taken from Marie Claire Hair & Makeup by Jane Campsie, page 84.
This will help to prevent a floury face and will make your skin look fresh, young, and healthy.

Fabulous Tip of the Day: Acne Treatment
Today's Fab Tip:
"Dab on acne medication with a cotton swab, not your fingertip. The sterile cotton will contain the treatment (translation: fewer scaly patches) and prevent bacteria from transferring from your hands."
-- Taken from In Style magazine, Special Beauty Issue Fall 2013, page 63.
This is a tried and true tip, believe me. It's a lot easier to apply, is more sanitary, and keeps the acne treatment from getting all over your fingers, which I hate.

Fabulous Tip of the Day: Fast Updo
Today's Fab Tip:
"Quickie Topknot: Even wet hair can get mega likes! Just gather damp hair and twist it into a bun. Then blow-dry hair along the hairline (it keeps you from looking undone) and apply shine serum to smooth."
-- Taken from Seventeen magazine, October 2013, page 56.
This is a hairstyle for those days when you wake up late and need to hurry to look fabulous. Which is practically every day for me.

Fabulous Tip of the Day: Luminizing Skin With Powder
Today's Fab Tip:
"Glistening Skin: Add a small amount of silver powder (crush a pressed eyeshadow, using the flat side of a ruler) to loose face powder. Blend together and dust on to shoulders or parts of the body that may be revealed when you are wearing cut-away clothing to give the skin luminosity. Alternatively, mix foundation containing light-reflecting particles with body moisturizer."
-- Taken from Marie Claire Hair and Makeup by Jane Campsie, page 29.
Another option would be to use loose pigment silver eyeshadow, instead of crushing a pressed shadow. At any rate, this is a great way to get glowing skin on a night out.
