1. Assistant Editor and resident "hair queen" Tiffanie Petett began by parting Sarah's hair down the center.

2. Using Inglam ONYX Ceramic Digital 1-Inch Hairstyling Iron, Tiffanie created natural-looking waves by taking sections of hair and pulling the iron from the crown to the ends of the hair while flicking her wrist back and forth.

3. Next, Tiffanie took a 1-inch section of hair from Sarah's crown, twisted it and pinned it back with a bobby pin, hiding the pin under a layer of hair.

4. Tiffanie set the style with Moroccanoil Luminous Hairspray.

Maybe it reminds you of that bout of conjunctivitis you had as a kid. Or the villain in pretty much every horror movie. Suffice it to say that red eyes aren't traditionally considered sexy. That might have changed with Rodarte's presentation at New York Fashion Week, in which models strutted down the runway wearing shimmery, mauve-y red eye shadow and lip colors -- a look that was slightly gothic, slightly ethereal and super daring. The red eye makeup trend also appeared at the fall shows of Trina Turk, Helmut Lang and Suno, among others. Naturally, we had to try out this runway look in real life, using TotalBeauty.com staffer Sarah Czuleger as our model. Here's how we did it.
