Marilyn Monroe

Bring the white pleated dress and Spa Mio will do the rest for your look.

The experts at Spa Mio started our model's Marilyn transformation by curling her hair with a large barrel curling iron.

The curls were then sprayed with a long lasting hold hair spray and pinned up to cool during the make-up application.

Snooki

Get your leopard dress and rhinestone glasses ready for one of the hottest costumes this year, Snooki from MTV’s “Jersey Shore.”

Our Snooki model started with her makeup application. Dark eye makeup was used to accentuate the eyes.

The next step was to give our model that freshly spray tanned glow that Snooki is known for. We layered on the bronzer to get the full guido-look.

We then got our models hair ready for Snooki's signature hair poof. We used a flat iron to straighten all the hair.

A portion of her hair near the crown of her head was sectioned off and the teased with a teasing comb. The hair was then sprayed with hair spray and smoothed back and pinned into a poof.
