Benny Horne You may remember Alice Eve (and her fantastically mismatched eyes) from Entourage, but her new role this summer, as the Enterprise's molecular biologist in Star Trek Into Darkness, will propel the Brit into the stratosphere. We asked for her get-pretty expertise.
GLAMOUR: You have heterochromia--your left eye is blue, and your right is green. Curious: Has it influenced how you do your makeup?
ALICE EVE: Usually it's not very noticeable. I did go through a period where I did blue eyeliner on top and a green underneath. I guess I was trying to accept myself.

GLAMOUR: Both of your parents act. Did your mom pass down beauty tips?
ALICE EVE: Yes! My mom taught me to spray rosewater and glycerin on my face after I've done my makeup, to set it and give a bit of moisture. My favorite is still the Whole Foods rosewater and glycerin spray, which is like $10.

Having just renewed two government-issued IDs, I have been harshly reminded of what NOT to do when being photographed: stare straight-on at the camera, do a weird half-smile. As a beauty blogger, I've mastered looking cute in selfies, but as evidenced on my license and passport, when I don't dig into my bag of photo-posing tricks, I look...intense.
The experience traumatized inspired me to investigate further why some people look so amazing in photographs. I picked three of my most photogenic Facebook friends (they always look gorgeous!) and asked them to reveal their personal photo-taking tricks. And, oh boy, did I get some good, extremely specific advice for you. Read on.

It seemed only appropriate that we ask The Vampire Diaries' Nina Dobrev her secret to healthy skin - and looking totally refreshed - at an early-morning event for Origins' latest product, the GinZing Energy Boosting Moisturizer ($27). The brunette starlet just finished filming the fourth season of her hit CW series, and made a quick pit stop in NYC before officially embarking on her Summer adventures. Read on for what she revealed about her skin care routine, the weirdest beauty treatment she's tried (recently), and what she can't leave the house without.
1. On her skin care routine: Nina spends much of her days on the Vampire Diaries set in full hair and makeup, so it makes sense that she takes her skin care routine very seriously. "Even when it looks like I'm not wearing much makeup, I totally am. So, as soon as I'm done on set - I don't even wait until I get home - I'll use a makeup wipe, wash my face, and then use a hot

POPSUGAR BeautySource: 3 Things You Didn't Know About Waxing
With Spring in full swing, it's time to think about clearing out those . . . er, overgrown areas. Sure, you may know it's important to exfoliate and hydrate before a waxing appointment. And we bet you've heard tight clothing only increases your chance of ingrown hairs. But Noemi Grupenmager, founder of Uni K Wax Center, reveals three little-known topics you should be talking over with your esthetician before the hot wax comes out.
1. You need to give your esthetician a full skin care history. The products you put on your skin every day could affect your waxing experience. In fact, mixing some products with wax is a no-no. "Prior to your appointment, I recommend letting your waxer know if you have any allergies, health conditions, or are taking any medicine, like Accutane, which would not make you a candidate to receive a service," Grupenmager says. "We also need to know if you are using any topical lotions or creams like AHAs or Retin-A,7 Tips to Stop Bloody Shaving Problems

We've all done it. It's the painful moment when the razor sweeps across the skin in the most awkward of ways, causing an unbelievable amount of bleeding. While most of us are careful to prevent major cuts from happening, sometimes the nicks can get the best of us. There are far better methods than the classic toilet paper scrap.
1. Use Eye Drops: Apply eye drops like Visine ($8) to the nick, which will help constrict the blood vessels.
2. Dab on Witch Hazel: Using a Q-tip or a cotton ball, apply witch hazel like Dickinson's Original Witch Hazel ($4) to the irritation. This astringent will help slow the bleeding.
3. Grab a Pencil: For a good old-fashioned remedy, consider purchasing a Clubman Styptic Pencil ($2), which contains aluminum sulfate. Aluminum is a hemostat, which is an agent that helps stop bleeding.
4. Wax on: Break out the ChapStick ($4), which will help clot the blood and act as a temporary sealant.
5. Use a Tea Bag:
