Last minute holiday beauty tips

December 22nd, 2009

Just in time for your holiday party come tips from industry greats.

Quick party tips

Long or short hair can be glammed up by using volumizing mouse and hot rollers.  Don’t have hot rollers on hand?  Try curling with an iron and pinning in place using bobby pins and spritzing with a light hold spray .  apply your make up while the curls set and cool off.  Take out pins or rollers and run a large tooth comb through your hair.  This will create sexy waves that will last all night.  This look can also be appropriate for the office party by simply pulling curls back into a loose slung pony tail and adding a fun sparkly clip for some flair.

Top five essential party pieces for under $50 from celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe

1. Red lipstick ( adds glamour to any outfit)

2. Black eyeliner always with mascara

3.Great heels, the higher the better

4. faux fur shrug

5. Metallic clutch
