Totally Jaded

teal, jade, eyeliner, green, gloss, makeup, get the look model with green eyeliner under her eyes Teal is the season\'s hottest shade for eyes. Swipe taupe shadow over your lids. With a black eyeliner, draw along your inner rims, the outer third of your upper lash lines, and 1/4 inch past your outer corners. Use a thick teal pencil (try MAC Eye Kohl in Minted, $13, gloss.com) to make a 1/4-inch-wide line along your lower lash lines from inner corners to just beyond outer corners.

Side Slung Ponytail

side, ponytail, waves, hair, style, get the look girl with curly side ponytail Hair swept to one side looks flirty and cool when you place the ponytail at your nape and add fluffy waves. Make a low side ponytail and secure with an elastic. Wrap a 1-inch section of hair from the pony around the elastic and secure underneath with a bobby pin. Add waves by winding 1-inch sections of hair around a 1-inch-barrel curling iron. Randomly insert a comb into the wavy sections and push it upward toward the elastic to create volume. Finish by misting with hair spray (try Final Net Hairspray, $3, at drugstores).

Welcome Matte

matte, lipstick, get the look, makeup, berry, red, glasses model in deep red lipstick and funky glasses Play up the retro look of matte lipstick with a glamorous, old-Hollywood shade like warm red. If you have medium to dark skin, go for a darker brick red (try NYC Long Wearing Lipstick in #414A, $2, at drugstores). If you have light to medium skin, pick a medium-intensity red (try Clinique Long Last Soft Matte Lipstick in Red Hot, $14, at Macy\'s).

On A Roll

roll, twist, hair, style, wavy, get the look model with hair twist on top of her head A hair roll is funkier than a ponytail or braids, and it\'s just as easy to do! Coat your hands with a dime-sized blob of gel (try L.A. Looks Mega Hold Gel, $3, at drugstores), then use them to separate a 4-inch-wide section of hair on the top of your head from your hairline to your crown, smoothing the gel over the section. Starting from your hairline, twist the section into a roll as you pull it toward the back of your head. Secure it at your crown with a medium-sized barrette (try Karina Medium Tortoise Barrette, $5, hairboutique.com). Leave the rest of your hair loose.

Dream Cream

cream, lipstick, get the look, makeup model in glasses and dark pink lipstick Cream-formula lipsticks, which combine rich color AND shine, look best in a medium-intensity color like pink. If your skin tone is light to medium, wear a rosy pink (try Rimmel Volume Boost Lipstick in Flaunt, $7, at drugstores). If you have medium to dark skin, go for fuchsia (try Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Cherries in the Snow, $8, at drugstores).
