During the cooler months it's a great time to something a little different with hair color. And this year, it looks like it's time to go red. In the past few weeks alone we've seen
Scarlett Johansson and
Evan Rachel Wood transform their locks to fierce crimson shades.
Like this feisty hue? Take a look at my slideshow to see some famous red-headed ladies from the present and past.

As a long-time admirer of Bobbi Brown's no-nonsense approach to makeup, I knew I was in for some serious beauty education when I opened the bright fuchsia-colored cover of her fifth book, the Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual.
Chock full of tips, the book proves that Brown knows her stuff. You'll have to pick up a copy to truly get a sense of her style and approach to beauty, but in the meantime, I've put together a list of my top eight favorites below:
- ACE it — Don't forget your antioxidant vitamins: A for aging, C for clarity, and E for environmental protection.
- Go lighter — When it comes to under-eye concealers, go one to two shades lighter than your foundation. If your under eye circles are rather dark, use a corrector before. Depending on your skin tone, pick a pale pink for the fairest skin to dark peach for the deepest toned skin.
- Set and forget — Set your concealer with powder (yellow toned for most, white for very fair) to actually prevent under-eye caking.
