SMOOTH MOVES

Give lips the slip with the new Velvet Lip Glide from NARS Cosmetics. Infused with the brand's Oil Infusion Complex, Lip Glide goes on like a gloss with the coverage of a lipstick.

LIKE BUTTER, BABY

Drybar recently instituted a $20 fee at all Atlanta locations for appointments not canceled at least two hours before the scheduled time. The change, which began on Sept. 12, is due to extensive no-shows. If you are the type who just can’t keep an appointment, consider investing in your very own Baby Buttercup Travel Blowdryer, a travel-size version of the official Drybar mascot and blow-dryer. The dryer features two temperature settings with a cool shot button, ionic technology and a handy travel bag for girls on the move. It costs $135 at Drybar locations in Buckhead or Alpharetta, Sephora and Nordstrom.
