Beauty Squared Round-Up for July 14, 2013

Happy Sunday, lovelies!

• If you're like me, your beauty routine more or less goes out the window when you spend any time in the heat and humidity. But, if, like me, you're not willing to forgo your beauty routine just because the weather is working against you, you may just need to change up how how you get ready and what products you use. Beautylish shares their favourite heat-proof beauty products that'll help keep you looking good all summer!
  
• If you've ever had a short hairstyle you've liked, you've probably had that moment when you've wondered if you should let it grow out or if you should keep it short. Hairstylist Bill Angst offers some tips to Beautyeditor reader Maria about growing out her short hair.
  
• Some "underrated" beauty habits, or really, just beauty tips, courtesy of Glamour readers.
  
• Minimal, matte makeup as seen on Mad Men's Jessica Paré.
  
• If you get the chance, you should check out the Lipstick Queen lipsticks. Here's a feature on the Chinatown Glossy Lip Pencil in Catalina.
  
• Summer in the city can be grand, but it can also take a real toll on your skin. Here are some common issues that arise with heat and city life and how you can protect your skin.
  
• Whatever you do, don't listen to Gwyneth Paltrow's advice on sun exposure, listen to medical professionals.
  
• Is there a discontinued lipstick that you can't forget about? For me it's MAC's Ionic from when I was a student. Check out Three Custom Color, who can recreate a number of long-gone shades from their colour library. Mine isn't there, but maybe yours is?
  
• In Canada or New York? Pick up a copy of Chloe Magazine for a spread featuring MuchMusic VJ Liz Trinnear styled as Debbie Harry by the awesome Lucky Bromhead. You can see one of the shots on Lucky's Instagram here: http://instagram.com/p/bmdNXAtwio/. 

Beauty Squared Round-up - May 6, 2012

Here are some beauty-ful links that caught our attention this week. Check them out!

You've heard about shellac, you've heard about caviar but how about a metal manicure? But this isn't your simple metallic nail polish. 

Victoria's Secret model (and Orlando Bloom's baby momma) Miranda Kerr reveals some of her unusual beauty tricks, including using a tablespoon to curl her eyelashes. 

Dior's new short film has models regally frolicking through the opulent halls and gardens of Versailles to Depeche Mode's 'Enjoy the Silence'. It's wonderful. 

A day late, but here's a really neat colour blocking makeup tutorial in celebration of Cinco de Mayo. 

One of our favourite Etsy shops is Nod To Mod Vintage. Check out the stunning vintage dresses on offer here. 

People Magazine's Most Beautiful issue features photos of celeb beauties Rose Byrne, Julie Bowen, Paris Jackson, Zooey Deschanel, Lily Collins, Jessica Paré, Sandra Lee and Paula Patton without make-up and in our photoshopped world, it's interesting to see these familiar faces bare-faced. Jezebel takes a look at three of these photos (Zooey, Paris and Jessica) and dissects People's intentions. 

How important is hair to your individualism? This short film artfully addresses the link between the hair of 22 Brooklyn men and women and their individuality.
