with the experts How should you prep your skin in the days leading up to a big event? Wash, exfoliate, and lots of hydration. Exfoliating is so important because it can leave your skin looking brighter and helps with absorbing all of the products you put on your face afterwards.

What beauty trends from this year are we bringing into the winter party season?
What’s the one red carpet beauty secret you wish everyone knew? Q-tips are tiny and perfect for a quick little touch up when necessary. Everyone should carry a Q-tip in their bag.
Which one product do you keep in your purse at all times? I always keep any lip gloss or balm that I am loving at that moment. Right now, it’s my Jason Wu Beauty Soft Balm Lip Balm.
I am launching my signature red for the winter party season – it is such a timeless classic look that will always turn heads. I think the key to any glamorous winter look is a bright red lip.
What’s the best way to transition this look from day to night? I am a firm believer that a red lip can and should be featured during the daytime as well as the evening. It’s a sophisticated statement that works all day! The best way to transition it is with subtle changes in eye makeup or a wardrobe change that keeps the focus on your lips.
What’s your best hack for achieving this look? Lip liner. The only way the lip will ever look bold and clean is to use lip liner! I also really like using a lip pencil to fill in the whole lips for a stay-on-all-day effect.
