As the summer winds down, cool days of Fall are fast approaching. This fall, less is definitely more. This season you should focus on your best features and play them up while keeping the rest of your makeup basic, subtle and gorgeous.

Here are some tips to looking your best in the upcoming months. Follow along and find your best feature.

DO: Wash your face daily with a gentle cleanser. It's imperative to wash at night to remove the day's sweat and grime. The best time to do this is in the shower when your pores are open and ready to purge.

DON'T: Go to bed with your makeup on! Not only do you look awful in the morning, but it can clog your pores and lead to breakouts. You also want to use a good eye-makeup remover at night to ensure proper removal.

One of the hottest and most revolutionary products on the market is by a new cosmetics company called Glamorous Chicks Cosmetics. I recently went to the company's product launch and, boy, was I impressed!

The one product that really stood out to me was the line of beautiful mineral pigments. Not only can you use them on your eyes, but the pigments can also be used six different ways -- eye shadow, lip gloss, mascara, nail polish, eyeliner, blush or bronzer. What a value!

The pigments come in more than 30 colors, so you'll be sure to find the right shade to create your own glamorous look. I had a chance to chat with Glamorous Chicks' CEO, Shana Joseph, to find out more about the line.

What made you decide to start Glamorous Chicks Cosmetics?

The product has great staying power and the pigments are fabulous. We also have an amazing skin care line, which includes moisturizers, toners, makeup remover, cleanser and makeup primer, to name a few.

As a makeup artist, it's only natural that I know my share of beauty tricks and tips. However, there's nothing wrong with getting tips from other professionals on the front line.

Tis' the season to get married, and many brides are gearing up for their perfect day. You have the dress, the caterer, the flowers and the perfect man, but do you have your BBF (bride's best friend)? Yes, finding the makeup artist is always a difficult task because you want to look absolutely perfect on your special day. Rightly so! Finding the right makeup artist is trial and error, and it may take some time to find someone who gets your vision. But the effort is so worth it. Don't risk it by waiting until the last minute either. I'm sure you have a friend who can "do makeup," but bridal makeup is very different from everyday makeup and should be done to your liking. You should just be able to sit back, relax and enjoy your moment.

Here are some tips on finding your BBF:

You will forget you have it on!

It's time to have fun with color with the faith that it will stay vibrant and beautiful all day. There is nothing worse then sweating off your makeup in this humidity.
