Touch-Up Trick

Cover roots with ColorMark, a dye that hides growing-in gray during that week or two before your next appointment. The handheld tube comes with a sponge tip for easy home use. The dye is temporary, so if you mismatch the shade, you can easily wash out your goof. Of course, it may be prudent to pass up the paint when rain is in the forecast (or at least carry an umbrella)!
DANDRUFF COUBLE CHECK Flake-fighting shampoos don’t have to be harsh on hair. In fact, researchers at Procter & Gamble in Cincinnati found that anti-dandruff products with pyrithione zinc actually conditioned strands and stopped itchy scalp. Get the ingredient in Denorex of Head & shoulder.

MAKEUP YOU’LL FLIP FOR Curtail clutter in your cosmetics bag with the Styli-Stye Flat Pencil. The rectangular shape lets you line eyes or lipsk then smooth on shadow or lipstick; switch from narrow to wide side to change its use. As it wears, stay on point with the Flat Sharpener.

WHAT FEET CAN LOOK FORWARD TO Forget messy powders and goopy ointments. You may be able to beautify red, irritated feet with antifungal socks coated with molecules that breakdown and kill germs and fungi (like the kinds that cause athlete’s foot). The souped-up socks could be available in the next few years. – SELF
