Tyra's Makeup Artist Valente Says: With the cold season upon us, many are experiencing dry, peeling, lack-luster kissers. Well, trade those chapped lips in for a healthy, sexy, moist pout! The skin on our lips is very thin and delicate, therefore one must take extra care to nourish and protect it from the elements.

First off, if you are experiencing peeling, try Tyra's favorite all-in-all antidote - VASELINE! Moisten your pouter with H20, and follow with a generous amount of Vaseline. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes (you can pass the time by taking a shower or brushing your teeth.) After the allotted time has passed, wet the bristles of your toothbrush and gently brush your lips in a circular motion. This action sloughs away the dead, peeling skin revealing soft, attractive, kissable lips! To keep your lips looking sweet, olive oil is a favorite home maintenance balm, and natural shea butter is great natural lip balm.

Howdy,

Just checkin' in with y'all to tell you my skin still looks the same. The $200 cream has yet to work its magic. I gotta read the label to see how long it takes for the transformation to be complete.

I've been reading your stories about your ridiculous purchases. A lot of you bought lipstick that promised to last long, but lasted toooooo long. I read a good cellulite cream story too. There was one story that was really funny about a woman who bought some boots she couldn't even walk in, just cuz they were on sale!

I love reading all of your stories. Keep 'em coming. And yeah, I REALLY do read 'em. This is REALLY me typing right now for all the doubters out there...

Hi y’all!

So today I was in the mall shopping at the after Thanksgiving sales with my mom, aunt and cousin. My mom loves costume jewelry so I headed to that department with her and ended up getting tons of costume jewelry myself. People think I am wearing the real thing, so why buy the real thing? I bought two gorgeous pairs of hoop earrings that are studded with diamonds. One had a platinum toned background, the other a gold background. I paid about $20 bucks for each. If they were real, they probably would have cost about $5,000 EACH!!! They don't call me the “Queen of Cheap” for nothin'!

TYRA'S MAKEUP ARTIST VALENTE SAYS:
On your quest for brow nirvana, it’s important to have the correct tools – a brow brush, great stainless steel tweezers, and clear brow gel. Your tweezers can make all of the difference, so don’t be afraid to spend money on a great stainless steel tweezer. The better the quality the better the results. I like the Rounded Tip Tweezer by Tweezerman because it grabs the hair well and its rounded point makes it very hard to have an accident with, so you won’t stab yourself! A good quality tweezer will also grab the hair much better, while cheaper versions aren’t made to grab hair as efficiently and will also break the hair off instead of pulling it out at the root.

Women everywhere complain about their driver’s license photo. Unfortunately, the DMV shows no mercy when it comes to retakes! Once the camera snaps, you’re stuck with that shot for years. Tyra’s “Fierce Force” of stylists surprised a group of ladies at a DMV to help them avoid common mistakes while taking their pictures.

1. Posture: twist your body away from the camera, but keep your face looking forward.

2. Pose: get your entire body into it. If you pose from the toes up, you’ll be able to see the difference in the final result even though it’s only a headshot.

Toccara from “America’s Next Top Model” and Tyra share their top beauty secrets and must have items!

TOCCARA’S LIST

1. Bobby Pins: I don’t leave the house without a bobby pin in my hair. If my track (hair extension) comes loose, I can keep it in place with one pin. I can even channel my inner Inspector Gadget and use it as a tool to clean under my nails!

2. Dark Lip Liner: I have small bird lips, so the liner makes my lips look fuller and, added bonus, the dark color makes your teeth look whiter.
