Holiday 2010 Must-Haves

This holiday's make-up trends are leaning more toward the gray shimmer of the Winter Wonderland than the vibrancy of the festivities indoors, but they are just as exciting. Fresh and radiant skin complimented with smoky lids, heavy lashes, and bitten red lips take this seasons look to a natural, but classically chic feel. Set off by the playful, loose hairstyles that have been coming down the runways and red carpet this fall, women can look effortlessly timeless and confident.

1. REDKEN BODIFYING CREAM MOUSSE KIT: Big soft curls and waves, loose buns and braids – looks like this serve to frame up your face with this season's messy yet still glamorous trend. Can't afford a glitzy do or stylist? Well, Redken offers a do-it-yourself kit, complete with their bodifying cream-mousse and quick-dry instant finish spray, for a reasonable $22, available in select salons and Redken dealers.


2. LA MER LUXURY ESSENTIALS KIT: Keep your skin fresh and flawless, and show it the love it deserves by splurging on La Mer Luxury Essentials kit.
