Kelly Rowland

Hair How-To: This super-sleek style makes a short cut look polished and sophisticated. Create a deep side part then mist hair with a heat protective spray such as Mizani Thermastrength Style Serum, $17. Working in small section, run a flat iron from root to ends. Apply a drop of shine serum to your palms then run them over the top layer of your hair. Try SoftSheen Carson Roots of Nature Remedies Mango Oil & Sweet Almond Oil Thermal Smoothing Serum, $7.

Makeup Tip: Don't have practically poreless skin like Rowland? Fake it. Start with a dime size drop of primer then use a clean cosmetics sponge to press (don't rub) a creamy foundation into your skin, wherever it needs it. This will give you even, natural-looking coverage. For darker skin tones try CoverGirl Queen Collection Natural Hue Compact Foundation, $8.99.
