What's the 411? - With the highly anticipated “Last Train to Paris” album hitting stores next week, Dawn is showing us “how to move in a room full of vultures.” Check it.

Face Forward - I’m a Neutrogena fiend, so I use the <i>Neutrogena Clear Pore Cleanser/Mask</i>. I put the <i>Neutrogena Visibly Firm Night Cream</i> on at the end of the day.

Star Treatment - There’s a product called &lt;i&gt;Ojon Restorative Hair&lt;/i&gt; Treatment that I use and you can get it at Sephora. It’s like mayonnaise that you leave on your hair overnight, and wash the next day. It helps your hair grow extremely healthy, and it helps with any damaged ends. I usually get a trim every four weeks also.

Perfect Chemistry - I don’t go very often, but when I do go to the spa I get the fruit peels, which are milder chemical peels. They do burn, but if you get them once a month, it’s perfect for your skin. I have oily, sensitive skin, so those peels are not as rough.

Tempting Tresses - Now that we’re on the road, I get my hair styled like every week. Usually on a day-to-day basis, I’m a bed-head person. When I get out of the bed, it’s a quick run through the fingers, and I’m on the move. I like &lt;i&gt;Dove Flexible Hold&lt;/i&gt; hairspray because it smells so good!

Time to Shine - For shine, I use the &lt;i&gt;Luster’s Pink Glosser&lt;/i&gt;. The other stuff (expensive products) is all about the name. I use the stuff I grew up with because I’m natural and my hair is extremely healthy, so why stop now?

Pretty Little Things - I’m a really big fan of Lia Sophia. She has these really dope trinkets, and every year she comes out with a line that has a specific theme to it. Two years back she did a line which had an Egyptian theme and the jewelry was amazing.

Walk It Out - I‘m in love with Alexander Wang’s shoe line. His fall collection is amazing. I love what he’s done with the ankle boot. It’s a little bit edgier than normal, but it still has a sexiness to it.

High Steppin' - I’m also loving the Rodarte boots. The problem is that Rodarte only released it in their runway line, but I’m going to try to steal some. There’s a grey thigh-high boot that he used for his fall line and they’re absolutely gorgeous.

Princess Pout - I love MAC lipglass. Their lip gloss is everything! I like the milky, princess pinks. That color works through fall and winter. I love neutral lips because I feel like it’s all about the eyes.

Fit For a Bad Girl - I’m naturally petite, but dance keeps me fit. I do modern and hip-hop, but I take more modern than anything. I go to dance class every chance I get, and I’m at the gym whenever. Even when we’re traveling, I make sure to hit the hotel gym and do at least 35 minutes of cardio.

Bounce Back - I’m really loving the pole dancing classes. You have to have thigh and arm strength. If I took it a little more, my physique would probably be even doper because it takes so much out of you. I’ll only take the class if I’m in New York, maybe once or twice a month. It keeps variety in your workout when it gets boring.

Crazed Couture - I think I’m going to be into the military jacket this year. I like the straight jacket look that Rick Owens is doing.

Get Nailed - I found a person that does nail artwork. Evergreen, black and blood red are my favorite nail colors for this winter.

Dawn's Beauty Secret - Use hemorrhoid cream under your eyes. It tightens the skin and takes away bags. Makeup artists will put that under your eyes with a pad, and leave it on for about five minutes while they’re doing your makeup. When they take it off, the bags are gone.
