Contestants from cycle six airing in March
Shedding last year's skin can be a slightly arduous winter pastime, but, remember, the season is all about preparing for spring's rebirth.
So open your closets and drawers and allow this sage advice from Jay Manuel, beauty expert, art director for America's Next Top Model and our special trend forecaster, to guide you.
Overall, says Jay, 2006 will be the year that glamour makes a comeback. It won't be the heavy, stylized looks of silent movie stars, but people will be paying more attention to details and striving for some classic touches among their otherwise casual getups. And Jay thinks curvy shapes will be all the rage in 2006 ‑- good news for just about all of us.
His first bit of advice? Hold on to that kohl eyeliner, but ditch the smoky black eye shadow.
Tip 1: Colorful smoky eyes are in. Plain black smoky eyes are out.
"I almost hesitate to say this, because a smoky eye is always in style, but for this year you're going to see an 'evolved' smoky look," says Jay. "Look for more color, less monochrome dark."
