Q I have stretch marks on my stomach and hips. Does anything actually get rid of them?
A Stretch marks are scars that form when your skin tears under the surface (typically when your body changes shape as a teen). There's no foolproof cure, but creams with vitamin C and copper may keep them from getting worse by strengthening the dermis, says NYC derm acrene Alexiades. Hide them temporily with waterproof makeup, such as Nicole Paxson foundation, $32.50.

Q I have a bad cold and look terrible. How can I camouflage my red nose and eyes?
A Dot on a yellow-based concealer to counteract the redness, advises makeup artist Tina Turnbow. Set with powder so that it doesn't smear or rub off when you blow your nose. Then try navy mascara to brighten up the whites of your eyes.
