Don’t freak out if a beauty emergency hits during party season. JANICE YONG reveals the tricks to fixing some common mishaps.
The situation YOUR HAIR LOOKS GREASY OR LIMP AFTER JUST A FEW HOURS
Dust a mattifying translucent face powder on your parting and along your hairline. Rub the powder in gently and leave it for a few minutes to absorb the grease before dusting off with a tissue.
The situation YOUR HAIR STINKS OF SMOKE AND SWEAT
Nix bad smells with Sephora Express Freshen Up Hairspray ($10). Spray liberally through hair.
