While super-creative beauty looks can be awesome, there's nothing wrong with the classic sleek-strands-and-smoky-eye combo — it's a guaranteed winner. Some eye-opening (and de-puffing) essentials help keep your face fresh, while the world's tiniest straightener practically guarantees that flyaways and wind-whipped locks will be tamed into submission. Some glittery pins and a rich crimson pout add a hint of drama to keep things interesting.
