Follow these steps to get this glamour girl meets punk look, fresh off the New York Fashion Week runway
The fresh face/bold lip trend is cropping up all over the runways -- and it's only the second day of New York Fashion Week. So far one of our favorite versions is from the Carmen Marc Valvo show.
James Boehmer, NARS Director of Global Artistry, was in charge of creating the makeup look. "The collection is baroque with a punk edge, so we wanted the makeup to have that same feeling," says Boehmer. As for the hair, Ted Gibson created the punky pink tips using hair chalk.
Follow these steps to get this daring look at home:
1. For that fresh-faced glow, apply NARS Aqua Gel Luminous Oil-Free Moisturizer and follow with NARS Sheer Glow Foundation all over your face, depending on your particular coverage needs.

These studded, hot pink nails are the perfect mix of sweet and tough
Every Fashion Week, we always eagerly anticipate what type of colorful goodies Kate Spade will whip up, and we're never disappointed. The designer's New York Fashion Week Fall 2013 collection was filled with juicy color, playful prints, and sparkling metallics. Kate Spade makes it pretty hard to choose just one favorite thing, but we are obsessing over these rocker chic nails created by Deborah Lippmann.

Here's one to make you shudder: Pubic hair injuries sent nearly 12,000 people to the emergency room in recent years
Look, when you're in a time crunch, there are plenty of things in life that are totally acceptable to speed through. Heating up a microwave meal? Sure. Haphazardly tossing on a wrinkly blouse so you're not late to work? Fine.
But when it comes to pubic hair grooming, that's one task you never want to rush through.
Everyone remembers that old, ancient adage: When shaving your pubic hair, take care. Never heard of that one? Well, just because you haven't seen it embroidered on a pillow, doesn't mean they're not wise words to live by.
Statistics show that there has been a five-fold increase in reported pubic hair injuries from 2002 to 2010, according to University of California San Diego researchers. And it's pretty much an even gender split; 56.7 percent of the butterfingers were…
