HAIR AND MAKEUP TIPS PART V
1. Get Clean Skin Quick
To sop up oil and refresh makeup, lightly mist your face with toner, then pat with a tissue, says Eva Scrivo, makeup artist and owner of the eponymous New York City salon. Finish with a dusting of loose powder.

2. Lighten Locks Instantly
If scalp grease (or too many products) have left your light hair looking like dirty dishwater, sprinkle translucent powder over your roots, then brush through, says makeup artist Morgen Schick.

3. Hydrate Your Skin in Half the Time
Use conditioner to moisturize your hair -- and body, says Schick. Just massage it in neck-to-toe in the shower, rinse and dry off. The conditioner will hydrate nearly as well as body lotion -- without the time suck of waiting for it to sink in.

4. Get Gorgeous Nails -- Now
Schick's 60-second strategy: Remove all polish, clean under your nails (with lemon juice, if you have it) and massage the thickest lotion you can find (lip balm will suffice in a pinch) into your cuticles.

5. Use Pink to Fake Perfect Skin
Surprise! Concealer is only half the battle when it comes to fixing flaws. To really perfect your complexion (no matter what your skin tone), try wearing lipstick in a warm pink. "It distracts people's eyes from blemishes and other imperfections," says Schick.

7. Revive Your Face Rapidly
To look alive after a long night, pat concealer onto the inner corners of your eyes, under your lower lashes and next to your nose, says Scrivo. Finish by swirling bronzer over your cheeks.

11. On days when
you want to skip lipstick, protect your lips with an SPF 30 (or higher) lip
balm. Balms that contain glycerin are especially moisturizing, and tinted
versions offer a hint of color. If your lips are chapped, seal in sun
protection and speed healing by applying a thin layer of petroleum jelly on top
of the balm.
12. Lighter makeup won't slide off your face like heavy
foundation in hot weather. Try a tinted moisturizer or lightweight
cream-to-powder formula. Trade your lipstick for a tinted lip balm. Switch to
waterproof mascara, water-resistant cream eye shadow, and gel eyeliner. Shiny
at midday? Pressed powder will turn cakey and streaky on your face. Instead,
roll a blotting sheet over your skin.
