Bangin' Bangs

Bangs are simply ubiquitous, and why not? They are flattering, versatile and easy to style. According to Suzi Jacobi, a super exclusive private hairdresser to the stars (for her clients' discretion, she won't give out names), "You don't have to be limited to any one style just because of your face shape. Bangs of all styles look good on anyone who can pull it off. If you can own it, you can wear them." She also says that bangs are great for long faces or to make long hair look styled. But there are a few points to keep in mind if you're about to commit to bangs.

Tea Time

Skin care companies have long touted tea—especially the green variety—as a miracle ingredient, but when Latina.com conducted an unscientific and rather skeptical inquiry into how beneficial tea was for skin care, we were genuinely surprised at the effectiveness of this holistic ingredient. Whether you’re slapping tea bags on puffy eyes in the morning, misting an elixir of it on your face throughout the day, or choosing products that incorporate it as a key element, tea is powerful stuff.

#1 - Go Matte

Trade in your sheer tinted foundation for a more matte foundation that keeps your complexion even and your face free of shine all season long. Like Jessica Alba, we love Revlon's Custom Creations Foundation ($14, drugstore.com), which you can adjust to match your own skin tone. Another cool option? Foundation that does double duty either as anti-aging or acne clearing, like Neutrogena's Skin Clearing Oil Free Makeup ($8.29 on sale, Ulta.com).
