I am the biggest klutz when it comes to DIY French manicures. I could just never get the tips even–or they don’t even look like tips. After each attempt, I always end up just leaving it to the professionals.

With the Bourjois French Manicure Kit, you can give yourself a flawless, goof-proof French manicure without the mess! It contains a specially designed curved brush that will give you perfect tips! Here is what you get in the kit:

  • One .3 oz French Manicure in Blanc Raffine (white for tips)
  • One .3 oz So Laque in Rose Lounge (sheer pink)

You get this all for only $20 (a $28 value)! That is definitely a great bargain for being able to give yourself a weekly French manicure. You can get it here.

Get Ashley’s Smokey Look

Ashley Tisdale Ashley Tisdale looked so glam at the High School Musical Tour in New York City and Los Angeles. What?! Ashley gets to sing “We’re All In This Together” on stage and wear fabulous makeup? Lucky! So you don’t feel left out, here’s how you can get sexy smokey eyes like Ashley:

1. Sweep Urban Decay Eye Shadow in Maui Wowie [$16] all over eye, from the lid to just under the brow bone.

2. Highlight brow bone with Benefit High Beam [$22] by dabbing on one dot and blending with fingertips.

3. Line top lid with NARS Eyeliner Pencil in Black Moon [$19] along upper lash line. Draw a thin line along the lower lash line as well, and then fill in the lower inner rim. This will give you super smokey eyes!

4. For ultra long and thick lashes, sweep 2 coats of Bourjois Coup de Theatre False Lash Illusion - Duo Mascara in Noir Diva on upper lashes, followed by 2 coats on lower lashes. Use the white brush on lashes first to thicken and lengthen lashes, and then use the black brush for highly pigmented color and shine!

5. With LORAC Cheek Duo in Hot Flash [$28.50] sweep the pink shimmery blush on apples of cheeks, and then sweep the bronze shimmer all over cheeks, forehead, nose, and chin. This will give you a gorgeous glow! Tip: Use a big brush (Powder Brush - Jumbo, $5.99) instead of the small square brush that comes with the product. The big brush will give you full and natural coverage!

6. Finish the look by applying Bobbi Brown Lip Gloss in Sandwash Apricot [$19] on lips for super color and shine!
