Nail your next meeting with a (future) boss by looking the part! Here, see professional tips for what eye shadow shades and lipstick colors are most appropriate.

Eyes

The team at Glossybox, a prestige beauty product subscription service, says that matte, neutral shades like browns, tans, and soft beiges are best. Opt for matte formulas, and "stay away from shimmer as it can be distracting." When it comes to eyeliner, go with traditional blacks and chocolates, and apply in a thin, soft line. "Stay away from colorful eyeliner," the pros advise. Vivid aqua and sparkling gold might look cool for a night out with pals, but reflect

When I think of bright blue lashes, I am instantly brought back to around 1987 and visions of tanned and freckled Zinka covered cheeks and noses, surfer girl looks, and childlike fun frolic through my mind. So the thought of adding an electric blue lash to my everyday look, doesn't seem quite right for this 30 something who wore it first when she was 12 years old. From drug store brands to high-end designers, mascara is popping up in tons of fun shades and ranging from blinding neons to sultry smokey sooty hues. This fun Summer look runs the gamut of young, bright, and punchy, to chic, sophisticated, and mysterious and is trending among women of all ages.

Tips from the pros…

* Balance out bold colored eyes and lashes by keeping the rest of your face neutral. Stick to soft flesh tones on cheeks and lips so your eyes are the only POP.

* Choose a shade that complements your eye color: Green for hazel eyes and purples for blue and green eyes. Choose silvers and lighter shades of blue

Everything old becomes new again. The latest retro style to experience a rebirth are half moon manicures, which were popular in the 1930s. According to the Huffington Post, the return of this vintage nail design is credited to Dita Von Tease, who launched a line of pin-up-inspired press on nails. The earliest versions of the half moon manicure left both the lunula and tip of the nail unpainted and the polish was most often red. Today's styles include a wide variety of colors and creative twists on the look. The most popular way to create this nail design is by using 3-ring binder reinforcement sticker as show in this tutorial on Syl and Sam. I've compiled a number of fun color combinations, unique variations, and alternate methods to achieve the look. Click through the slideshow and get inspired to try this hot nail trend.

Heidi Klum

When you think of Heidi Klum, you instantly think of her insanely shiny, gorgeous, blonde hair-or at least I do. Sure, she's got a killer bod, a contagious charm, and a wardrobe that any woman would envy, but she's also got some of the best locks in Hollywood, which is why I had to grill her on all things beauty in our recent interview. Read on for her secrets!

OK!: Clear Hair Care held a "Right End" Hair Revolution event in LA recently, encouraging women to pay more attention to their scalp-why did you decide to partner with this brand?

Heidi Klum: I tried the products before I joined and I think they're great because they do what they promise-make your hair stronger and more beautiful. Everyone always thinks about split ends, but once they are split the only thing you can do is cut them, no matter what product you use. I think you can help that by feeding your hair through the scalp and Clear does that.

courtesy of Warner Bros. The problem with adapting a novel into a film is that you have to decide how faithful you're going to be to the original. Fortunately for director Baz Luhrmann, F. Scott Fitgerald didn't actually spend much time describing Daisy Buchanan in The Great Gatsby. He may have hinted that she had dark, glossy hair, but in Luhrmann's new movie version, out this Friday, Carey Mulligan's Daisy is an ash blonde. True to the original text, however, she's a total stunner. Makeup artist Maurizio Silvi and hairstylist Kerry Warn told us how they turned Mulligan into the woman of Jay Gatsby's dreams.

The hair: Warn, who wanted Mulligan to look classic and well bred, first cut her hair into a modern version of a 1920s style. "It's based on the semi-shingle, a layered bob with a masculine shape in the back," says Warn, who styled it with John Frieda Frizz-Ease Serum, wax, and hair spray for a lacquered effect. Then it was time for
