Wu’d again! Gold. Glitter. Lids. Hose me down, I’m overheating. Yes for fall, yes for holiday, yes for spring, yes forever.
#9. GAYOUNG’S PICK: Marissa Webb. HAIR by Linh Nguyen for Redken.

Toussled tresses + deep side part = understated elegance. Because you actually shouldn’t have to try so hard to look like you’re not trying so hard.
#8. JESS’S PICK: Ruffian. NAILS by Birchbox.
Upside down French mani with metallic rims… a far cry from prim and proper yet still classically chic. Oh and ps, shades were crowdsourced by Birchbox.
#7. LAUREN’S PICK: Paola Hernàndez. HAIR by Jenny Balding for Redken.

Step aside milkmaid. Get ready to see more of this badass braided faux-hauk. It’s already picking up steam with no signs of slowing down.
#6. GAYOUNG’S PICK: Leanne Marshall. MAKEUP by Nathan Johnson for Aveda.

Marie Antoinette meets My Fair Lady with this ethereal skin and that pop of hot pink. Focused and flawless. Pretty perfection.
#5. JESS’S PICK: Nicole Miler. MAKEUP by James Kaliardos for MAC.
Does this one count?? Since we’re already hot for purple hues? But seeing the trend carry over to spring made us happy. Especially now that we finally figured out how to wear the bold shade.
#4. LAUREN’S PICK: Reem Acra. HAIR by Didier Malige for Furterer.

Not an afro, but a half-ro. HUGE texture and volume atop a pin-straight crown. Created with little spiral twists you could totally try at home. Suitable for a disco diva.
#3. GAYOUNG’S PICK: Rolando Santana. NAILS by Zoya.

Side-swiped by nudes and neons. A happy pairing for all seasons. DIY-ers will be going bananas.
#2. JESS’S PICK: Katie Gallagher. MAKEUP by Romero Jennings for MAC.

Under liner’s never looked so good. Red-tones (yes red!) mixed into onyx at the lower lashline create a dark romanticism befitting for autumn days. Why wait?
#1. LAUREN’S PICK: Rag & Bone. MAKEUP by Gucci Westman for Revlon.

Orange is the new black. As in, universally fabulous. And after season over boring season of no-makeup-makeup, this pout packs an overdue punch. #MUAHHHHH
