We can talk until we're blue in the face about what to do with your hair, your makeup, your nails ... but sometimes it's just better to hear it straight from the pros, right? We rounded up some tried-and-true tips from some of our favorite makeup artists, hairstylists and manicurists just for you. Check out each pro's number one beauty tip!"When lining the lips, apply lipstick or gloss BEFORE liner. Dry lips can make it difficult to apply liner evenly." - Kayleen McAdams (her sister is celebrity Rachel McAdams!)
"Use an illuminator on the cheeks under foundation for beautiful, long-lasting radiance." - Rosalina Da Silva, key makeup artist for movies like TRON and Sucker Punch
"Use a good skincare routine, including sunscreen, before blending a small amount of liquid foundation onto your face for a radiant glow." - Robin Siegel, makeup artist for celebrities including Kyra Sedgwick and the former makeup artist for Friends
"ALWAYS never say 'always and never' when it comes to makeup. Use your imagination! Have fun with your look! Remember, makeup is the ultimate disposable accessory ... it washes off!" - Gregory Arlt, Director of Makeup Artistry for M.A.C Cosmetics
"Always keep a hair elastic, pen and four bobby pins in your purse. You can be hair ready in 5 minutes for anything. The possibilities are endless with those three items." - Janie Jarman, former contestant on Shear Genius
"Don't worry if you are crazy messy when you paint your nails. Only worry about getting two thin, even coats on them. Let nails dry overnight, then after a hot shower, brush nails with olive oil and a toothbrush. A crisp, perfect paint job will appear!" - Nonie Creme, founder of cult favorite butter LONDON
"When it comes to makeup, be willing to try something new and step out of your normal routine without compromising your confidence! If you feel good about the way you look, it will show through in more ways than just the products on your face." - Jenna Menard, Clinique Global Color Artist
"If you use a quarter tablespoon of vinegar in your shampoo, it will act as a natural clarifying shampoo to remove buildup from product." - Ted Gibson, celebrity hairstylist (for Ashley Greene, Anne Hathaway, Brooklyn Decker and countless others!)
"For fast, flawless skin, always do all eye makeup first. Because excess eyeshadow falls under the eyes, it's easier to wipe off the mess on bare skin and then apply your normal concealer or foundation. It's a bigger headache to try to blend fallen eyeshadow onto made-up skin." - Mai Quynh, celebrity makeup artist (she's made up Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez and more gorgeous starlets)
"When waving your hair, hold the ends stationary while wrapping the hair around the iron as opposed to regular curling. This makes for a more natural, beachy look." - Alex Polillo, hairstylist for Andy Lecompte Salon
