"We can&amp;#39;t all afford to have an army of pros perfecting our hair, nails and makeup before we leave the house--which is why the following tricks are a normal girl&amp;#39;s best friends.\nPinterestFacebookOur girl Andrea Pomerantz Lustig, who some of you may remember from her posts here on Girls in the Beauty Department, has a new book out (How To Look Expensive) that draws upon her years of interviewing top beauty pros to give tips on how to look as fancy as your favorite celebrities--for a lot less cash.\nHere are three of Andrea&amp;#39;s very favorite look-expensive tips.\n1.

That&amp;#39;s retinoids, antioxidants, peptides and alpha-hydroxy-acids. RoC Daily Resurfacing Disks ($9.99 at Ulta) are one great low-cost skin secret. They&amp;#39;re like a professional peel in a jar.&amp;quot;\n2. To get expensive-looking nails: &amp;quot;Whenever I&amp;#39;m feeling like a mess, new polish makes me feel more polished. OPI Samoan Sand is the perfect rich-girl nude--not too pink, not too beige. And if your polish is chipped take it off--any manicure will look cheap if you leave it on too long.&amp;quot;\n3. To get expensive-looking hair: &amp;quot;Use a Bounty paper towel to blot the water out of your hair without disturbing the cuticle before you blow-dry; it really gives you shinier, silkier, more expensive-looking hair.&amp;quot;\nRead more of Andrea&amp;#39;s high-end beauty tips in our excerpt from How To Look Expensive--and if you&amp;#39;ll be online at 1 p.m. today, head over to Glamour&amp;#39;s Facebook page to live-chat with Andrea and ask her your own specific beauty Qs (she&amp;#39;s a veritable vault of amazing tips, guys!).\nWhat are some of YOUR favorite tricks for looking expensive?\nPhoto: Thinkstock"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
