We may have learned a few lessons or two from Mad Men, and now you can get even more beauty inspiration from the show. That's because Mad Men-inspired nail polish is coming our way.

The season four premiere of Mad Men opened a whole new can of worms for nearly every character in the cast.

In the season four premiere of Mad Men, we see Betty and her new husband, Henry Francis, still living in the Draper house. While Don is anxious for the couple to move out of his house, it's clear that Betty and Henry have gotten comfortable there.

Last night's episode featured the characters settling into life a year after we last left them with beauty looks and new parenting challenges, and Buzz has a rundown on all the drama.
