In terms of hair, purple is the hair color of choice for many young females. In terms of facial features, a neutral look is in order - with emphasis on the eyes and lips..

For this season, however, red, pink, brown, and peach lipstick colors are back in the fold.
For the yes, the smoky look is still a winter trend (very strong this season). and eyeliners are back as well – giving females a Black eyelashesbolder and sexier look. The “cat eyes” look is in for this winter season and so is dark eyeshadows, for a trendy, but neutral look.

The hottest new trends, for females, for the fall/winter 2008/9 season are gold and bronze laced cosmetics. They are primarily used as eye shadows and nail polishes. Dark plum is the other main color for nail polish.

While plucked eyebrows are out of style, the heavy eyebrow returns as the queen of fall/winter 2008-9 eyebrow styles.

Also in this season is mineral makeup – giving its wearers either a nude or a neutral look to their faces. This is the choice for women that want a natural look to their faces.

Overall, the straight, very short, and the wavy hairstyles rule this season. Although, there is no middle ground between the three, long hair with ponytails are in the fold as well.

I used to go to the salon every 4-6 weeks to get my hair colored. As time and money constraints kick in, these regular visits to the salon are not feasible.

I have experimented with just about every hair color brand on the market today. I would buy the ones that were on sale, the ones I had a coupon for, etc.

But the only brand that I get consistent results with is Preference by L'Oreal. I have used a natural version of the hair color and achieved very good results month after month.

Tips for coloring your hair

Do you know any woman, over the age of 20, that doesn't color their hair? When you go down the hair color aisle at the drugstore, you may be overwhelmed by all the choices of hair color and highlighting products.

Hair color products have come a long way and they are still improving as we speak.

Here are a few tips for coloring your hair:

1. Stick with a hair color that works with your hair texture and skin tone and eye color. Generally if your skin is pale or pinkish, you should choose a hair color that is on the cooler side. Warmer colors will complement olive and darker skin. Also if you have thick curly brown hair, you probably shouldn't dye it a light blonde.

2. Start with small changes. Even though you may see celebrities totally changing hair color from one week to the next, you are better off (and so is your hair) if you only do gradual changes. If you want to lighten your hair, just go 1 or 2 shades lighter. Add a few highlights around the face for a different look.

3. Take extra special care of your hair if you color it. Add a weekly deep conditioner to nourish the hair.

In short, hair color can be a great way to liven up your hair style without getting a new hair cut. Be sure to always read the directions and do a test run on one of your hair strands before you actually color it.
