Be my pin-up girl
Jessica Chastain is a vision in red. Try her glamorous waves and bold red lips when you want to leave a lasting impression.

To get the look, apply mousse to wet hair and blow dry. (Try Pantene Pro-V Fine Hair Solutions Triple Action Volume Mousse, $3.99.) Part hair to the side, spritz it with heat-protective styling spray, and wrap 1- to 2-inch sections around a medium-sized curling iron. Pin each section up into a curl and let it cool for five minutes. Unpin, then brush through with a bristle brush. Mist with shine spray.

For red lips that won't leave a mark, line and fill in lips with a long-lasting lip stain (try COVERGIRL Outlast Lipstain in Wild Berry Wink, $7.99).

This Valentine's Day, let's skip the clich�s. The red frilly lingerie, the bubblegum pink lipstick, the generic heart-shaped chocolate sampler. Because you know what it says: "I'm trying way too hard." And really, the key to looking sexy is to not look like you're trying too hard.

What does that mean? For starters, your hair shouldn't be too stiff or "done." Really, all you should go for is "touch appeal," says sexy hair guru Italo Gregorio. (He's styled Olivia Wilde, Nicole Kidman, and the Victoria's Secret Angels, so I figure he knows a thing or two on this subject.) For makeup, celebrity makeup artist Linda Hay says anything goes as long as your skin is glowing.

To get you geared up for V-Day -- minus the Hallmark cheesiness -- I found plenty of sexy celebrity looks to try. Now if only I could find a non-schmaltzy card �

See celebrity-inspired date looks to try now.
