Beauty Squared Round-Up - October 20, 2013

Hello Beauty Squared readers! Are you in need of some beauty links today? You are in luck...we're here to help!

Let's get in there...

• Allure Magazine has eight simple makeup tricks for flawless skin. 
• Do you like to make your own beauty products? Do you like dry shampoo? This homemade dry shampoo tutorial video is for you! 
• Sigh, Kim Kardashian. I wish I didn't know who she was, but I do. I will go back to ignoring her right after sharing this link with you. At least she's taught us a thing or two about contouring. 
• Kelly from Glitter Diaries takes a look at the Laura Mercier Flawless Face Book Palette in Sand AKA all you need for flawless skin.
• Speaking of flawless skin, the folks at Daily Candy have compiled their favourite concealers, foundations, tinted moisturizers, BB/CC creams and powders in one handy place. 
• Understanding your hair texture - this is one of the most in-depth articles on hair type I've ever read. What's your curl pattern?
• This make-up transformation is quite remarkable (though I've seen more dramatic ones) and had dudes on Reddit all worked up. 
• Christine at Temptalia and her readers have shared their tips for pore minimizing. 
• In case you've missed our previous Round-Ups and this FOTD, full brows are in for fall/winter 2013. Here's Elle Canada's how to get the look (without growing in your brows). 
• Black eyeliner, that trademark look of the bad girl throughout history from Cleopatra to punk rock.
• Extreme plastic surgery is not as rare as it used to be. Men and women around the world are using plastic surgery to dramatically alter their appearance and they aren't concerned with hiding the fact that their faces are created surgically. These dramatic (and disturbing) photos by photographer Phillip Toledano looks at some of these extreme plastic surgery enthusiasts.
