For the premiere of her new flick "Pitch Perfect," Brittany Snow pulled out all the stops. The actress displayed a flawless minimal makeup look complete with extra long lashes and a pretty light pink lipstick. But the real show-stopper was her braided updo, which was downright stunning.
To copy her uber intricate woven style, we suggest dividing your hair into two sections: top and bottom. Split the top into five sections and loosely French braid each of these smaller sections back. Then, French braid the large lower section. Twist all braids together into a messy bun or chignon, adding bobby pins for hold as you go. Lastly, for a bit more textured volume at the top of the crown, gently tease and loosen the braids with your fingers.

It's a little early to be deciding on a New Year's Eve manicure, but we're going to go ahead and guess sequins will be this year's biggest trend.
It's not that far of a leap, after all glitter-filled fingertips usually dominate in December. Which is why it makes sense that Ciate would take the sparkle effect to the extreme.
Yes, that's right, the leader in 3D manicures (they also produced the caviar and velvet nail sets) has announced their newest textured creation: the Sequin Manicure. The kits come in three different shades: Harlequin, a primary multi-color mix; Tutu, a feminine mix of pinks, purples, and reds; and Super Duper, a blinging combo of gold, copper, and green. Each Sequin Manicure, $15, comes with one pot of sequins, a "Little Black Brush," and "Glitter Grip" (a… Read More »
