Hair
A great cut
“The best thing to do to prepare for a busy period, when you don’t have a lot of time to style your hair, is to make sure you plan ahead and get a well styled hair cut,” says celebrity hair stylist, Kristjan Hayden, “Face framing layers and a sweeping fringe are a great way to add a lot of style and detail to your look.” Hayden also recommends keeping a handful of bobby pins and hair elastics on hand for when you may want to switch things up while on the go.
Messy buns or chignons are great ways to adapt a classic look in a modern way. If deciding to go for an updo on a night out, Hayden suggests, “When planning your upstyle for an event, consider what will wear best and still look good, if it were to fall apart a little, choose a soft, textured, loose upstyle so if a few pieces fall out, it amost looks intentional!” When creating the updo yourself, it works best to use short bobby pins since they hide well in the hair and are easy to work with sans mirror.

Beauty
Great skin
Beautiful clear skin is something that never goes out of style and looks great on everyone. However, we all are guilty of depriving ourselves of sleep and succumbing to a few vices during TIFF or any other busy time of year. In order to keep up the appearance that your two of sleep could have been twelve, use a line of skin care products that attempt to repair any damage that may have been caused by dehydration, external environment and neglecting your usual skin care regime (yes, we’ve all fallen asleep with make-up at least once). For under eye circles or other blemishes that may be budding it’s way through, get a great concealer or cover-up. Try: Kiehl’s 100% Natural Origin Acai Damage-Repairing Skincare Collection, with Super-Antioxidant Organic Acai Berry or Joe Fresh Duo Concealer.
