London Spring 2011 was hands down my favorite fashion week ever

Shocked, are you? Once you feel the energy, see the masterful technique,mac brushes and find yourself wide-eyed by the innovation, you’ll understand where I’m coming from. Here are my ten favorites.
Additionally, I must send out a big thanks to Swarvoski,mac makeup not only because they sponsored my trip to the UK, but also because they underwrote almost all of the very best shows at LFW. If not for them, some of these collection mightn’t have happened.

When I pressed Azrou?l’s people to explain how this “jumpsuit” was different from a “romper” in anything but name north face denali, they listed menswear design details such as hidden button plackets, and reinforced topstitching, which can easily be found on rompers made for women as well.
Last year, Timo Weiland made a similarly named onepiece, but with fewer macho aspirations: “We called it a onesie worksuit, but the inspiration was a dandified Edwardian; the purspose was definitely not functionality,” says Weiland, adding that the look was definitely not one that sold.
Whether we call it a onesie, a jumpsuit,blackhawks jerseys or a romper, Weiland and Azrou?l may just be ahead of the times. The recent workwear-heavy collections are any indication, boys will be men, not boys, next spring. But we should keep in mind that after work comes play. So who’s ready to romp, er, stomp?

Tom Ford’s über exclusive über-hyped spring show

Even though images from Tom Ford’s über exclusive über-hyped spring show have been released (first in Harper’s Bazaar UK),mac brushes and we’re starting to see the collection sweep covers and editorials–from Julia Restoin Roitfeld in V to Emily Blunt in that mac makeup same blue fringed dress on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar UK–they can’t convey what it was like to be there like this footage from the actual star-studded show.
The show is set to Karen Elson’s “Pretty Babies” (she also walked in the show wearing that nearing-ubiquitous blue fringed dress).north face denali From Beyonce to Karlie Kloss to Lauren Hutton,blackhawks jerseys all of Ford’s superstar models “werk” their looks to the fullest and the intimate fashion A-list crowd (including Julianne Moore’s adorable daughter Liv in the front row) seem to be enjoying the show immensely.

Victoria’s Secret and NY Daily News

Victoria’s Secret put on their annual runway show spectacular last night and,mac brushes as usual, the highly produced event was an assault of sparkles, feathers, cleavage and legs for miles. There was a “Tough Love” theme that involved lingerie with a hard motocross edge followed by “Game On” which featured Isabeli as a weightlifter,mac makeup and then “Country Girl” where Angels got to where wings made of straw and wheat. The “Pink Planet” segment–the VS Pink portion of the show–seemed like a tribute to Rainbow Brite, which was not a bad thing.
The front row and after party was packed with a very amusing range of celebs including some fashion ones. Carine Roitfeld north face denali, Alexander Wang and Zac Posen were all there. So was Adrien Grenier and Vin Diesel. Vin Diesel was very enthusiastic about the show and on his feet for most of it blackhawks jerseys. Not that we can blame him. There was a lot of hot ridiculousness to be gawked at.
Here are some of the most insane get-ups from the show.

ELLE showed us the return of logos

Last week, ELLE showed us the return of logos.
Today, their ’90s flashback continues with an ode to Manic Panic,mac brushes which they’ve renamed “Pop Lights.”
Among their proof-of-trend: Rachel McAdam’s bubble gum streaks mac makeup and Joss Stone’s questionable red tresses.
Meanwhile, the designers pulled for this story – Vivienne Westwood, Antoni and Alison,north face denali and Zandra Rhodes – are all based in London, where punk and ska influences still linger, street trends hit the runway more quickly,blackhawks jerseys and catwalks are styled like a circus and not like a beauty pageant.
Still, Marc Jacobs dyed some of his girls deep blue and purple, and we’ve seen blondes paint a few lavender highlights into their hair and look gorgeous -

rock your glow, like Lily

Reader Joanna writes in with a common summer pesk:
People look at her luminous skin and say mac brushes, “Eeew, you’re so pale.”
If you find yourself in the same situation,mac makeup there are two options:
You can either throw your iced tea on the person’s face,north face denali or figure out how to make your glow-in-the-dark skin tone work for summer.
Let’s look at our favorite phosphoresce girl, Lily Cole, for inspiration.
There’s no reason to self-tan or – eek – lay out blackhawks jerseys in the sun, but you could switch your brush to a bronzer, which catches light nicely and makes your cheeks glisten. We like the ones from the Body Shop because they’re cheap, organic, and the powder is very loose, so it applies easier.
You can also add a little bit of lip stain, because it goes from day-to-night and makes you look like you’re either eating berries or drinking wine. Either one is cute. Our favorite lip stain ever is from Tarte Cosmetics; it’s $21 but one of the only makeup items we carry in our pochette every day.
As for eyes, you have two options:
Wear brown mascara to lessen the contrast between your light skin and your darker eyes…
Or rock your glow, like Lily, and find an electric blue or purple eyeliner and shadow to make your skin pop.
Obviously, sunscreen is more important than all of this stuff, but a few good streaks of shimmer should curb any Interview with a Vampire references through August…

Estee Lauder definitely raised Estee Lauder’s profile

That’s what John Demsey hopes,mac brushes according to a recent Independent interview.
With aging customers and the slow death of the department store – where Estee Lauder products have traditionally been sold – Estee bigwigs are looking for new ways to keep their products relevant.
Solution: celebrity endorsements!
With their massive wealth, Estee Lauder (who own Aveda, MAC, Origins, Tom Ford Beauty, Sean Combs cologne,mac makeup etc.) can afford to maintain a respectable stable of celebrities: P. Diddy, Pamela Anderson, Gwyneth Paltrow, Elizabeth Hurley, Dita von Teese,north face denali and many, many more…
Estee Lauder’s group President John Demsey says that celebrity association create ‘aspirational’ associations that he hopes will make a new generation want to buy Estee products.
Says Demsey of P. Diddy, “He’s a cultural movement… Young people view him as a lifestyle…. He’s the hip-hop Ralph Lauren. Because many, many years ago, Ralph Lauren created a brand and a lifestyle that people sort of aspired to be part of. [P Diddy] blackhawks jerseys is modern-day aspiration”
Those Gwyneth Paltrow ads for Estee Lauder definitely raised Estee Lauder’s profile (2-page spreads with an A-List star in Vogue tend to do that) but I certainly wasn’t rushing to my local Macy’s to pick up some perfume.
On the other hand, I definitely bought more Rimmell (not an Estee brand) products because of their Kate Moss ads.
But the question remains: will our generation fall for aspirational beauty products? Or hip ones?

I get a lot of skincare stuff for free

It is usually expensive, European,mac brushes and smelling a little like medicine and a little like ice.
And while I’ve never had particularly icky skin mac makeup, I never felt glowy and amazing either. Until I ran out of the costly stuff, and got some facial scrub from The Body Shop – for $12.
And suddenly, my skin was movie-star amazing,north face denali to the point where even guys took notice.
I told one of them last night about my cheap skin scrub from the mall,blackhawks jerseys and he said, “Well, it’s a mass brand for a reason – millions of girls wouldn’t use it if it didn’t work!”
Which leads me to wonder if most makeup isn’t really an Occam’s Razor of an issue – the simplest answer is usually true, and the reason big brands are popular is because more people buy them / like them / want them.
But does this mean my Wet ‘n Wild lip gloss is just as good as Stila?

Lydia Hearst is the only heiress with her own Style

Lydia Hearst is the only heiress with her own Style archive –mac brushes and now she’s booked a beauty campaign.
The Manhattan native is the newest face of NARS, which counts Cindy Crawford, Alek Wek,mac makeup and Guinevere Van Seenus as past muses.
We should have guessed Lydia was linked with the line –north face denali and its enigmatic creator, Francois Nars – this summer, when the two appeared together at an event for Henri Bendel. Now the designer confesses that he’s snapped Lydia himself, a move reminiscent of how Karl Lagerfeld does his own photography.
But did the aspiring writer – a new columnist for Page Six Magazine – get to hang out on Nars’ private Polynesian island?
And will she get a lip gloss named after her,blackhawks jerseys or settle instead for one of Nars’ classic shades, like Multiple Orgasm?

new Cover Girl commercial

The girls may have filmed a music video during this week’s Top Model mac brushes, but the only clip we really noticed was the new Cover Girl commercial.
It stars Drew Barrymore mac makeup and some chubby new mascara,north face denali along with a mod citrus wardrobe that looks like it has a lot of Giles Deacon, plus several rolls of neon tights.
We suspect the stylist Katie Grand has something to do with this,blackhawks jerseys and we also wonder if this is the first time makeup’s ever been sold based on sheer personality.
After all, Drew’s lashes do look long, but the real pull of the ad is the “Do You Think We Could Be Friends?” factor – like you can borrow her mascara in the girl’s room, and maybe get some tips on yoga and running, since Drew seems to have dropped 10 pounds just for this campaign!

Gucci is really trying to evoke to decadent

Gucci was keen enough to release a behind-the-scenes video of their perfume commercial on YouTube,mac brushes and it confirms a few things for us:
1. Gucci is really trying to evoke to decadent,mac makeup industrial Halston spirit of the ’70s.
2. Freja looks about ten years younger with long hair,north face denali which is both good and bad.
3. Gucci creative director Frida Giannini is maybe the cutest designer we’ve ever seen.
4. The Gucci by Gucci perfume has been treated a little like a borrowed Louvre artifact – blackhawks jerseys note how it’s only handled on set by white-gloved art directors, who look a little bit like butlers when polishing the bottle.
5. Director David Lynch is more obsessed with glitter than Heatherette during Fashion Week. A surprising revelation indeed.

with top notes of hay

Country music is one of the only categories in America still selling records,mac brushes so maybe it’s no surprise the scent industry thinks it can help sell them too.
Today, Coty announced their latest face is Tim McGraw,mac makeup who will launch his own fragrance for men in the Spring.
McGraw is a multi-platinum record artist,north face denali who’s also starred in Flicka and Friday Night Lights – two of our favorite nobody-knows-I’m-watching movies.
Whether his face can move millions of men to the perfume counter is still an untested idea,blackhawks jerseys but he is married to Faith Hill, so we imagine his fans put some faith in him when looking for grooming and date prep tips.
Coty’s last fragrance was built for Kate Moss, and smells a little bit like cigarettes, rock candy, and baby shampoo.
We imagine McGraw’s signature scent will lean closer to barbecue sauce, with top notes of hay.

a post-gross scents rehabilitation program for girls

This morning’s New York Times article on fragrance totally read our minds mac brushes -
We used to be kind of addicted to serious perfume, but lately, just haven’t been into it mac makeup. We don’t know if it’s the agony of the choice, or maybe just the aversion to most of what’s out there (ever since Paris Hilton came out with a fragrance, we’ve just never felt quite the same about it,) but recently, we’ve been trying to smell like…well, ourselves.
But since we don’t really smell like anything at all, we’ve become obsessed with super simple scents – one-noters that are comforting, not confrontational,north face denali like those saccharine scents put out by every other pop star.
Our favorite (albeit random) perfume of recent days? Mélange Apothecary’s Concrete Parfum in Miel. It’s a solid scent (hence the weird name,) so throwing it in your bag isn’t at all stupid,blackhawks jerseys and the warm smell of honey sticks to you all day – even though you’ll probably end up rubbing more and more onto your wrists while you try to think of clever things at work.
The gel-like line also comes in Tuberose – a scent that is normally super expensive to produce (tons of tuberose flowers are needed to get just a drop of perfume,) but that Mélange keeps at the normal $10 price point. (The line is actually meant for blending, but we like to wear them as separates anyway.)
Now if they’d just print the little pots with flowers, we’d hand them out outside of schools as part of a post-gross scents rehabilitation program for girls.

Marc by Marc Jacobs show

Maybe Lauren Conrad really is the most influential person in fashion.
After all, at yesterday’s Marc by Marc Jacobs show mac brushes, there were black nails on every single girl – despite the fact that all the shoppers we know in New York, London, L.A., and Paris have moved on to blue, white,mac makeup or even various shades of orange (our favorite is called “caution”).
In fact, the only girls we do know who still rock black nail polish are Lauren Conrad,north face denali Audrina Patridge, and Whitney Port.
As one model remarked, “It would be cool if the girls and the guys had to wear black polish because then it would be all, like, emo.”
The good news blackhawks jerseys:
If you bought eight bottles of Chanel Black Satin, you don’t have to dump them out.

Gucci Westmann did the makeup at Thakoon

Gucci Westmann did the makeup at Thakoon this season,mac brushes and it was really beautiful. But it also conjured a lot of bizarre images in our head, and we thought perhaps we’d share them…
*Jem and mac makeup the Holograms
*’80s Power Blush
*Battered wife-of-an alien syndrome north face denali
*Georgia O’Keefe watercolors
*Misguided prom prep
*Mallory Keaton sorority rush episode
*Only if you’re wearing a bun
*Only if you’re wearing couture
*Only if your mom lets you blackhawks jerseys out of the house like that.
What else are we missing?

here’s our undisclosed Fashion Week rumor for the day

So here’s our undisclosed Fashion Week rumor for the day,mac brushes which we either heard:
a) Backstage at the Erin Fetherston show mac makeup.
b) Last night at Agyness Deyn’s wild birthday party.
c) In a Fifth Avenue elevator north face denali.
Erin Fetherston is getting her own perfume blackhawks jerseys. It will be done by Coty; it will come in a heart shaped bottle; it will smell like daisies and fairy princesses and dresses that don’t quite fit.
At least, that’s the rumor.

about swearing off makeup and squealed

The nice girls over at Philosophy read my story about swearing off makeup and squealed, “We have a present for you!”
I love presents mac brushes.
But it wasn’t a present so much as a product called, “The Present: Clear Makeup.”
The label reads, “Do you crave airbrushed skin?” Yes. “Do your wrinkles and pores deserve to appear minimized?” Yes. “Are you searching for a new foundation?” Don’t tell Natalie,mac makeup but yes.
So I stashed it in my purse when she wasn’t looking and tried it in my bathroom after my roommates left for work even though it looks just like lotion, so I wasn’t technically breaking my no makeup vow.
And now north face denali that I’ve been using it for a week in place of moisturizer, my skin’s never looked better. I know I said that last time, but I’m seriously catching up to Natalie’s glow.
The only thing that’ll get me closer is the salmon and berry diet from Prom Countdown 2002.blackhawks jerseys But that’s about a million times harder than slathering some moisturizer on every morning.

Remember that NYLON party we went to a couple weeks ago?

Well, I walked away with the prettiest glass bottle of Chloé perfume. The smell, however,mac brushes wasn’t nearly as nice. But I tried it, just in case. Natalie said, “all wrong” and “too woodsy”.
I tried again. My roommates loved it, and so did my boy neighbors.mac makeup And the woman shopping in Jumelle.north face denali And the girl who stopped me on the street today to ask what “divine” scent I was wearing. Even Natalie asked, “Wow, what is that?”
I know scents vary depending on the person, but do they vary on the same person from the first spritz to the third? Did my skin somehow adapt? Is that even possible?
Ruth La Ferla just wrote about bloggers blackhawks jerseys and the dramatic way in which they’re changing the fragrance industry. They’ve cracked open the world of niche perfumes to an audience that’s used to learning about new scents in People or the billboard above their gas station, giving giants like Estée Lauder and Coty a mini panic attack.
Natalie is indeed prompted to smell a new perfume based on a positive review whereas I’m influenced by the print ads, (ridiculous, I know). And yet we’re both aware it’s impossible to form an opinion of a scent without wearing it repeatedly.
If I’d read Chandler Burr’s scathing review of the Chloé scent and trusted my initial sniff, I would have kept Chloé as a pretty paperweight. Instead, it’s replaced the YSL Homme I’ve trusted for almost a year.
Do you read scent reviews? How do you determine which perfume is right for you without wearing it for a bit? And more importantly, has an offensive scent ever become your fave?

the Cory Kennedy train had derailed long ago

NYLON just reported that the face of Urban Decay is now the face of Sebastian,mac brushes too.
Here’s a little behind-the-scenes video of her shooting the campaign for those of you still in disbelief mac makeup – click to hear that she (of course!) uses the products on her own time,north face denali that it’s made for “people”, and to watch her try to hop around in her broomstick yellow YSL Tributes.
Whether the main product, Whipped Cr√?me,blackhawks jerseys will come with a diagram on how to get the perfectly haven’t-seen-a-shower-in-months look remains to be seen…

We kind of wish these were coming with neon nail polish, but whatever

Back when I was a beauty intern, I noticed something curious:mac brushes the number one gifts to send to beauty editors are always the same mac makeup – Picnic baskets, fluffy robes and flip-flops.
So we knew it was only a matter of time before somebody came up with this newest designer (makeup, that is north face denali) collaboration.
Trish McEvoy, Bobbi Brown and Laura Mercier have all just designed their own pair of limited-edition Havaianas. They’ll be available at Saks the entire month of June, and all proceeds from each sale benefit charity: water.
The one at top is Laura Mercier’s design blackhawks jerseys – click through to check out Bobbi Brown’s and and Trish McEvoy’s.

MAC is teaming up with Ungaro‘s Esteban Cortazar for fall

It’s the second “from the runway” collaboration for the make-up giant,mac brushes after partnering with Alexander McQueen last year. (They don’t count Heatherette because their make-up wasn’t based on anything runway related.)
The Ungaro colors, set to debut this fall,mac makeup will feature a “softer palette of delicate shades of pinks, blues and lilacs” said MAC make-up artist Sharon Dowsett, “It’s a colorful collection but very transparent so you don’t have to worry about overdoing it.”
Sounds pretty, but we still don’t understand limited edition designer make-up. Unless Pat McGrath’s in your bathroom every morning,north face denali armed and ready with liquid eyeliner, you’re not going to look like you walked off a Parisian runway, no matter whose designs inspired the color on your lids.
Still, if we had our pick, we’d love to see someone partner with Luella – blackhawks jerseys can you imagine the pink lipsticks and glitter eyeshadows?! Maybe Stila can give her a call once their Marchesa shades sell out?

We love when beauty companies use real models

Today’s WWD has images of the new Burberry campaign,mac brushes for which Christopher Bailey dropped Agyness for lesser known model,mac makeup Rosie Huntington-Whiteley
It might be a sad day for Agyness – Burberry was kind of her calling card,north face denali and the new campaign looks a little dull anyway.
But something tells us she might be too busy laughing her way to the bank to care – Shiseido’s swapped one serious face for another, dropping Angelina Jolie (after two years) for Agyness!
We love when beauty companies use real models,blackhawks jerseys but probably not as much as Agyness loves that beauty company-sized paycheck.

giving a lot of thought to black lipstick

Since the 90′s and the Fall runways are what’s on our minds most right now, we’ve been giving a lot of thought to black lipstick.
We saw it at YSL and Giles, and we kind of secretly see it on ourselves,mac brushes but only with the right invitation, and only if we could pull it off without venturing into Morticia Addams’ territory.
We figure we could always switch it out for a super deep red or aubergine to go with super soft eyes, but then it might just look like dark lipstick, which isn’t nearly as exciting as a total mouth blackout.
But more importantly – would you wear black lipstick (on a night other than Halloween)? mac makeup Or is this too reminiscent of that other 90′s blunder, Goth?
(And if you already have, then please tell us how you worked it – we seriously want to know!)
391///But, J’adore Dior
I justify the $24 price tag of Dior Show Black Out mascara because it’s the only beauty product I buy regularly.
I don’t even remember to put moisturizer on every morning which means I probably buy it once a year (I know, I know).north face denali But I can’t remember the last time I left the house, or even my room, without coats of Dior on my lashes. It is, unfortunately, an obsession.
So when Natalie told me that Maybelline’s newest mascara, The Colossal, allegedly rivaled my favorite Dior, while costing less than $8, I just laughed. I’ve tried dozens of mascaras and nothing comes close to giving me the volume,blackhawks jerseys length and mini-clumps, (no, I don’t like perfect separation) like Dior.
But I just tried the Maybelline – and it pains me to say this after six years of paying $24 every few months – but it works. It works like Dior.
I don’t know how many coats I used, because I usually just move the wand around until my eyelashes look sufficiently fake, but I didn’t swipe on anymore than I normally do.
The main difference is that The Colossal’s waterproof – and Dior Show Blackout isn’t. (Regular Dior Show comes in waterproof, but the Blackout version does not). Waterproof mascara scares me, but most people like it better which might make it an advantage.
I’m addicted to Dior’s mascara, but if my current tube runs out before I get a new one, my lashes will be reassured by the neon yellow tube tucked into my vanity.

Jil Sander’s launching a new fragrance for fall

Scent 79, for both men and women, will debut stateside exclusively at Neiman Marcus in November mac brushes, (it’s been available in Europe for almost a year).
It’s allegedly crafted “like haute-couture clothing,” mac makeup combining notes of peach and cranberry with base notes of leather,north face denali wood and musk. The minimalist bottle is supposed to reflect the recent streamlined collections – mostly neutral but with pops of vivid color.
The fragrance could stand to be a bit less heavy handed than Raf Simons’ latest collection.
His sharp menswear-inspired looks matched with a lighter,blackhawks jerseys feminine scent could get even the most crazed girl through fashion week.
389///Kate Moss to Make Makeup
We just got our August Vogue, and we were pleasantly surprised when we realized that Kate isn’t just on the cover – there’s actually an interview with her.
She rarely allows them (Johnny Depp’s old agent famously told her that not allowing interviews will allow her to maintain mystique), so of course we read the whole thing in like thirty seconds.
But tucked in between her cute little quotes – “Let me see if we can get the chopper” – Kate let out a little bit of news -
She’s not just working on a second fragrance for Coty (her first, Kate by Kate Moss will available in the States this August), she’s also working on makeup for them, a new celebrity-driven venture for the giant beauty brand.
Kate would be following in the model-makeup steps of Daria, who created a tiny range for Lancome earlier this year.
From Kate, we fully expect a sick range of kohl eyeliners, and no hair products whatsoever.
(On a sidenote, wouldn’t this compete with the makeup she sells for Rimmel, also owned by Coty? Guess she won’t be making mascara…)

MAC’s teaming up with Hello Kitty for a winter collection

MAC’s teaming up with Hello Kitty for a winter collection of make-up and random accessories including key chains,mac brushes bracelets and tote bags.
There will be two separate cosmetic collections, Hello Kitty Colour Collection and for the brand’s more mature customer, Hello Kitty Kouture because they need to reel in the kids who have an extra twenty bucks to spend on lipgloss as well as the moms who’ll spend $90 on something called Sheer Mystery Powder that comes in a white Swarovksi crystal Hello Kitty compact with a pink bow,mac makeup (assuming they exist).
Though fashion’s had an awkward relationship with Hello Kitty for some time, see Japanese Vogue May 2007, it always seemed more like a silly joke than an actual marketing ploy, like Star Von Bunny but recognizable to those outside the industry.
Will women above the age of thirteen really spend a lot of money,north face denali (because the price points for this partnership are significantly higher than MAC’s usual), for “glitter eyeliners because she loves anything that twinkles?” She, of course, is Hello Kitty, whom you probably think is a cat but is actually “the face of a girl without a mouth, [who] speaks from the heart.”
And if you think that’s strange, Nick Knight shot the counter visuals featuring blonde models with black vinyl Hello Kitties for an overall “dominatrix” look which we suppose is meant to reel in an entirely different customer.
MAC’s 2007 Barbie collection sold out in minutes, almost,blackhawks jerseys so our sarcasm is probably unwarranted and the collaboration will surely fly off shelves despite the tanking economy and despite WWD‘s weak outlook on beauty sales and despite the Swarovski crystal overload.
Though we’ll never understand how or why.

Thirty dollars on nail polish might sound obscene

But if you buy only one bottle for Fall, and you paint it on yourself,mac brushes it’s totally justifiable. Especially if it’s Chanel. And especially if you’re in Paris,mac makeup like me.
I snagged a pretty bottle of their new Kaleidoscope paint yesterday morning and I haven’t stopped staring at my nails since. It’s the partner shade to the gold everyone’s raving about, but so much better.
It looks, at first, like a pewtery silver, but then it gets lighter. Sometimes it’s green and sometimes it’s pink, but it’s always shimmery,north face denali which means it goes with everything.
It’s like the silver Wet n’ Wild I had in high school,blackhawks jerseys but way more grown up and even a bit sophisticated. Not to mention it goes on ten times easier, and without brush strokes.
If you see it, try it, thank us.

NYLON will have a new Beauty Director

Starting October 13th, NYLON will have a new Beauty Director, Holly Siegel.
Holly, formerly Senior Editor of ELLEgirl.com, followed by a brief stint at Bellasugar,mac brushes will be replacing longtime Beauty Director Fiorella Valdesolo, who’s starting a serious freelancing career for Glamour.com and others, in addition to continuing her work for NYLON.
We happen to know that Holly’s a very fun girl who certainly knows her Avon from her Aveda,mac makeup so congratulations to her.

an advertisement for Vitamin Shampoo

So here’s something weird:
The girls at Spoiled Pretty have spotted something rather strange – mac brushes an advertisement for Vitamin Shampoo, a new product packaged in water bottle-like cases that show off their neon shades.
However, this is not to be confused with Vitamin Water, the drink of choice for many product placement situations,mac makeup always with neon colors blaring, too.
Apparently,north face denali the hair care line is not owned by Glaceau, but by Vogue International, a company that apparently has nothing to do with Vogue either..
Needless to say, lawyers are involved. But imagine if they won a spot in Serena’s bathroom? “Chuck took my Vitamin Shampoo again!” blackhawks jerseys Then we’re sure we’d see a real lawsuit..

A Barbie World Of Mine

This afternoon, I died and went to pre-adolescent fashion heaven.
I walked among fifty models, fifty little girls, more hair extensions than they used on Cousin It,mac brushes trays and trays of plastic nails and some seriously awesome clothes backstage at Barbie’s 50th birthday party.
Charlotte Tilbury directed the make-up artists through their three looks: Retro Barbie (red lip lacquer and “visor-like” lashes),mac makeup Present Day Barbie (sparkly pink lids and fabulously teased hair) and Future Barbie, with braided up-dos and insanely feathered glittery eyelids. Stila’s make-up artist promised me that, “It’s all wearable, you just have to find your era and maybe bring it down a teeny tiny notch.” Uh-huh.
Post make-up, I snuck past the dressers and into the rails,north face denali tucked myself between Marchesa’s frothy number and Alex Wang’s rhinestoned leotard and took pictures of the hot pink patent Louboutins lining the ground- it took all of my self control not to accidently slip Vlada’s into my clutch
And then I met Ken. He and his unreal blonde highlights introduced me to Miranda.
The six-year-old held her own between Behati and Jourdan in the make-up chairs. I asked her if she was excited to walk a runway. She looked at me, confused and I said, “Is this your first fashion show?”
“No,” she answered politely,blackhawks jerseys though she gave Ken a knowing look. “I’m a model. Last time I was on a runway I got to wear ballet flats and they put pompoms in my hair,” she told me before getting swept into her tutu.
And that was my cue to take my seat – Part II very soon.

Loyalty and Mascara launched their new Marvelous Mineral Mascara

I got my sample yesterday and tried it immediately even though I abused them with tests last week. The formula glided on without any tugging, and washed off with minimal discomfort to my lashline. There was some smudging around midday, but nothing too horrendous,mac brushes and the crazy separation and decent amount of length means it’s officially entered heavy rotation on my bathroom sink.
And now, they’ve launched their new Marvelous Mineral Mascara (on shelves as of yesterday),mac makeup a direct result of fervent requests by loyal consumers who wished for a natural mascara that also conditions lashes.
And even if I wanted a totally smudge-proof option, I know all I have to do is complain to the right people,north face denali and poof, it’ll be a click away on their site. And with consumers dropping like flies, more beauty brands would be wise to focus their efforts on keeping their fan base happy instead of coming up with the next limited edition “it” nail polish shade.
Fact: Kiehl’s customers are die-hard – they don’t call it a “cult” favorite for nothing – and will go on and on about everything from the Cr√?me de Corps to the Grooming Cr√?me until you kind of want to shove their Lip Balm #1 down their throats. If you’ve ever wondered how the 158 year-old brand keeps up such hype, you might like to know it’s because they actually listen to their customers.
Case in point: Late last year, they launched a stronger hold version of their Clean Hold Styling Gel.blackhawks jerseys Not because some big name stylist declared that stiff hold was in, but because a group of customers said they’d really like it.

Along With Ted On Tuesdays

Even though I’m officially brown-bagging my lunch since the e-word fell into a r-word,mac brushes the one thing I can’t bear to give up is my pricey haircuts. Try as I might, I just can’t cut back on them. I’ve considered trying to DIY, but I had a bad experience in my youth that left me with uneven,mac makeup half-inch long bangs on Picture Day Eve, so I can’t even handle a pair of shears without having traumatic flashbacks.
I guess I’m a salon snob,north face denali but I dealt with so many horrible hair cuts back in the day (hello infamous bowl cut of ’92), that the minute I had the chance, I plopped myself in a chair at Bumble and have refused to go anywhere less since. The unfortunate side effect of this stubbornness is that my already anemic bank account goes on life support every 6 – 8 weeks.
So, news: Ted Gibson, one of my all-time favorite stylists and an all around sweetheart,blackhawks jerseys was feeling my pain. The man behind the hair of Angelina Jolie and Anne Hathaway understands that times are rough and wallets are tight so he’s launching Recessionista Tuesdays at his eponymous salon. Every Tuesday, you can swing by the Fifth Avenue location for bargain basement prices on all the basic services. We’re talking $40 for a blowout and $75 and up for a cut or color. Considering the usual base price for services is $125, that’s one hell of a deal.
Best of all, if you swing by the salon between 10 and noon on Tuesdays and drop your business card, you’ll be entered to win a free hair makeover with Ted himself at the end of the day. The economy might be a mess but Ted is apparently a firm believer that your hair shouldn’t have to be. Amen.

L’Oréal’s Double Extend Beauty Tubes mascara launched earlier this year

In the history of mascaras, first came the primer craze,mac brushes then there were fibers, followed by vibrating wands,mac makeup and now tubes take their turn as the latest lash craze.
The original tube mascara, Blinc, was a cult hit, lauded by beauty editors near and far. Naturally, L’Oréal and Stila have followed suit.
For the uninitiated, tube mascaras contain lengthening tubes that are created using heat-sensitive polymers that wrap around the lashes, forming a literal tube that adheres to individual lashes for both a water and smudge-proof finish. They also claim to wash off with just warm water and a little bit of pressure.
L’Oréal’s Double Extend Beauty Tubes mascara launched earlier this year,north face denali which comes with primer on one end to (supposedly) give you salon-extension worthy lashes. Meanwhile, Stila launched their Convertible Mascara last month, another double-ended deal, only this one has a regular-sized lengthening brush on one end and a smaller defining brush on the other.
I tried out both mascaras and while I definitely got some added length blackhawks jerseys, I wasn’t exactly creating a breeze with ginormo feather lashes. The one claim that did hold true was the ease of removal. It was actually a little creepy to see the little tubes fall off and into the sink; I looked like I was molting.
I was a little skeptical of the tubes at first but after years of dealing with smudgy mascara after smudgy mascara, these were a welcome relief. I might even give up my Becca Ultimate Mascara in favor of one of these. So what do you think, are you a tube convert or is this just a passing fad?

Something About The Fake Tan

Some people cite the slimming effects of a tan – but mac brushes is looking like a cuticle stick really worth looking like a spring breaker?
So if it never looks real,mac makeup seldom looks good, and pretty much always looks cheap (not to mention that some states are looking to ban the tanning bed version altogether for minors for fear of a link to melanoma), why do people do it?
Lindsay Lohan’s about to make zillions selling the spray version, and Rachel Bilson’s just been signed by Jergen’s to help promote their Natural Glow lotion via a campaign about sun safety,north face denali but we’re still confused – why do some people persist in pursuing the fake tan?
From girls readying themselves for junior prom all the way up to Valentino, there is a huge population of fake tanners even though a fake tan is kind of like too-dark foundation cracking over acne – totally obvious, and therefore,blackhawks jerseys totally besides the point.
Which begs the next question: What exactly is wrong with being pale? Because from the Karen Elsons to the Alek Weks of the world, the only skin tone that’s ever made us utter “ew” is the shallow orange of a Hollywood Tans devotee – and even that faint brown of fake tan dabblers doesn’t make them look like they just spent a week in Florida so much as an hour in front of some light bulbs.

going to make the switch to sulfate-free

So what do you think, are you going to make the switch to sulfate-free,mac brushes or are you sticking to your usual shampoo no matter what the green experts say?
I started off with the Jonathan Product Green Rootine Shampoo. It has a foam consistency that kind of freaked me out. I had to keep checking the bottle to be sure it was indeed a shampoo and not a mousse mac makeup. I wasn’t a huge fan of it simply because I didn’t feel like I was getting enough on my strands,north face denali and hence, wound up using way too much of it. My hair looked clean but it still felt oily to me.
Next up was the L’Oréal EverPure Moisture Shampoo, which felt kind of heavy on my hair in the shower and sure enough, when I was finished blowdrying, my hair was hanging a little limper than usual. I definitely got some shine though and my hair did feel clean. If you’ve got really full hair, this might be more up your alley, but I don’t recommend for fine hair.
Finally came the Fekkai Au Naturel. It was love at first lather for me.
The shampoo went on light,blackhawks jerseys suds-ed up nicely and made my hair feel clean. The end result was super smooth, shiny hair that had lots of body and movement. The $23 price tag did cause me to pause, but this is one of the few lines I’ve found that completely satisfies my every hair care demand to a T, something I think is worth plunking down a little bit extra for.

launching a sulfate-free shampoos

When it comes to our hair, many of us are what can be politely described as crazytown. We like our hair to look and feel a certain way and get really bitchy when our strands don’t comply.mac brushes And since the natural boom, we’ve gotten even more exacting as to what’s actually in those products,mac makeup or more specifically, what we don’t want them to include: sulfates.
The sulfate debate has been raging for years. If you’re still a little hazy on the details here’s the rundown: Sulfates are a chemical that serves as a lathering and cleansing agent in everything from shampoos to body washes. They are cheap and effective north face denali but they are pretty harmful to the environment and are known to strip hair of color and natural oils.
I choose my products based on how good they make me look and feel,blackhawks jerseys unfortunately not solely for their impact on the earth. That said, if there are areas in my life where I can go green without sacrificing efficacy, I do it. So naturally, when I saw that three of the major players in the hair care biz — L’Oréal, Frédéric Fekkai and Jonathan Product — were finally launching their own sulfate-free shampoos, I tried out all three brands to see if they could outperform my regular stuff.

buy makeup from Christian Siriano/Victoria’s Secret

Incredibly, no hair products are in the works, but more pressing mac brushes, would you buy makeup from Christian Siriano/Victoria’s Secret?
In 2008, Christian Siriano won Project Runway Season 4. Since then, he’s showed a couple collections, gotten his designs on celebrities like Tori Spelling, designed a line of shoes for Payless,mac makeup and last week, Saks announced that they picked up north face denali his entire Fall collection.
This week, Victoria’s Secret says the petite designer’s created a limited-edition line of Very Sexy makeup to appear alongside Heidi’s.
The line will consist of eye shadow, eyeliner, lip gloss,blackhawks jerseys a bronzer/highlighter trio, and a brush and bag, with each item priced a few dollars more than VS’s regular line of makeup.

Been A Flying Girl

We’ve talked about your flying style,mac brushes but what about your in-flight beauty routine?
Without a stash of go-to skin essentials mac makeup, you’re likely to walk off the plane with dull, dry,north face denali all-around blah skin.
After years of fine-tuning and begrudgingly editing down my inventory, I’ve finally settled on a small list of products that I carry with me every time I fly, no exceptions: cleanser, eye cream and blackhawks jerseys a light moisturizer. All three are great for grooming-on-the-go, especially if you need to be somewhere straight off the plane and won’t have time to freshen up.
You can, of course, cull together a few of your favorite products or squeeze bits of the empty ones you already use into teeny tiny travel containers. Or you can just buy an already perfect set and save it for flights.
Currently, I’m obsessed with these three sets: ESPA, The Organic Pharmacy‘s amazing holistic kit and this luxe set by celeb aesthetician Eve Lom.

growing perfume catalogue this fall, Lola

Marc Jacobs is adding a new fragrance mac brushes to his growing perfume catalogue this fall, Lola.
The designer told WWD that while the super popular,mac makeup Daisy “is more sweet and innocent, Lola is more sensual – the name conjures up a flirtatious, warm spirit.”
We love the idea of a sassy counterpart to sweet Daisy. We were slightly hesitant about girly florals, but eventually grew to love the scent.
Lola will have a mix of pink peppercorn, ruby red grapefruit,north face denali vanilla and musk. Yum.
The bottle has a completely new vibe compared to any of his other fragrances too, and the shape is even different depending on what size you buy.
The ad (shot by Juergen Teller,blackhawks jerseys of course) featuring Karlie tells us enough about this girl to make us certain we would love to drink champagne and dance all night with her.

try the Spermine Facial

Would you try the Spermine Facial or is this just too gross for words?
So I was browsing through this week’s New York magazine on my way to work this morning mac brushes and read a short piece on how the latest craze in anti-aging treatments is a sperm-based facial. I’m sorry, what now?
Called the Spermine Facial,mac makeup it consists of slathering synthesized human sperm on your face and then running an ultrasound and infared light over the substance to help it,north face denali ahem, penetrate deeper. Townhouse Spa is currently offering this service for $250.
Apparently studies were conducted (can you imagine that clinical trial?) that showed that the antioxidant blackhawks jerseys found in human sperm makes your skin softer and less wrinkly. I’ve seen people put some pretty crazy stuff on their face in the name of beauty but this takes the cake. I’m all for piling on the lotions and potions to keep my skin looking its best, but I don’t think I could get over the gross-out factor on this one.

the most glamorous grown-up on screen

We at Fashionista are having yet another debate this afternoon. This time,mac brushes a back and forth over the July cover of British Vogue,mac makeup which features a heavily made up Julianne Moore. Shot by Alasdair McLellan, the coverline calls Moore “the most glamorous grown-up on screen.”
We all like Julianne (some of us more than others),north face denali and we’ve always loved that she’s so fresh-faced – with her beautiful pale skin, freckles and red hair all complementing each other. The “glamorous” make-up used for the Vogue shoot is too heavy for my taste and, dare I say it, verging on Norma Desmond territory. To me, she looks way older than she is.
Both Hollywood and the fashion industry are youth crazy,blackhawks jerseys so it is great to see a beautiful woman over 40 holding her own and still scoring covers. But no one wants to look ten years older than their real age, right? Especially if they biggest line on the cover is “Ageless Style”
Abby, apparently the voice of dissent in the office today, thinks she looks gorgeous. Though she admits to being biased on all matters related to Julianne Moore.

Daphne Guinness first fragrance Daphne is finally available

Daphne Guinness is, in our opinion, one of the coolest women on the planet.mac brushes And come September we’ll be able to own just a little piece of her when her first fragrance, Daphne,mac makeup is finally available.
Frankly, at the just announced price $140, it’s probably the only bit of her we’ll ever be able to afford. But we’ll take it.
These days it feels like everyone and their sister has a fragrance and most of them don’t make one bit of sense to us. We’re talking to you, Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian.
So it’s refreshing to see a woman who is a true arbiter of style,north face denali with a very signature presence, creating her own scent.
Guinness tells WWD, ““For me, [scent] is time travel. It takes you away from the everyday and you are transported to something in your past. It’s a very mysterious thing. It’s magic.”
We wholeheartedly agree and can’t wait to transport ourselves into the land of Guinness,blackhawks jerseys even if just for a moment.

Major magazines have major closets

Major magazines have major closets – one filled with shoes, one with bags, one with clothes and mac brushes one positively overflowing with beauty products.
Those beauty products get cleared out with major sales,mac makeup up to four times a year with the proceeds going to charity, and I used to run them. I’d get an almost sick thrill from watching which items the editorial staff attacked. It could be the ugliest shade of bright orange lipstick, but if NARS ran its way down the side in bright white letters or interlocking C’s sat at the bottom, I’d place all my money on a Manolo beat-down.
The interns and I watched with eyes agog as usually composed women dived across tables for YSL foundation two shades darker than their skin, while less expensive but still amazing brands languished on the table.
Sure, everyone has their favorite brand, but there’s a fine line between brand loyalty and snobbery. I may be addicted to Kiehl’s, but I won’t ignore the recently launched Olay products on my desk. In fact,north face denali some of my favorite new products come straight from Duane Reade: Bioré Skin Preservation, L’Oréal Double Extend Beauty Tubes Mascara and Aveeno’s Nourish shampoos and conditioners.
There are plenty of brands that have earned their reputations by producing both efficacious and innovative products,blackhawks jerseys there are also a lot of brands that create less than great products that ride the fashionable celebrities-love-it wave which defeats the purpose of any product.
When you’re shopping for products is it about the brand or do you actually research the product behind the label? Furthermore, are you loyal to one company or is your medicine cabinet home to every brand under the sun?

Give You A Health Kick

We’ve been feeling a bit under the weather lately and mac brushes in major need of an energy boost. This NYC weather has been killing us. How about you?
And just like that mac makeup an email arrives in our inbox telling us about north face denali Vital Juice Daily’s Retreat event next Thursday through Saturday.
It’s taking place at the old Virgin Megastore space on 14th and Broadway and blackhawks jerseys will offer a slew of free workouts, health foods, massages and nutritionists. They’re even sampling the Blueprint Cleanse which we’ve been dying to try.
We’re thinking this might be exactly what we need to get us healthy again…and fit into the Foley & Corinna dress we just bought for our friend’s wedding in two weeks!

cursed with some downright nasty weather

If you live in New York, you know that we have been cursed with some downright nasty weather these past few weeks. It’s rainy and muggy and dark almost all day long.
Almost as depressing is mac brushes what it’s doing to our hair. Fluffy, frizzy, mess is a bit of an understatement. Which mac makeup makes these shots of Lara Stone for Eres all the more enviable. We’ve been ogling them ever since they were first released.
Of course, she’s ridiculously attractive no matter what, but how sexy are these?north face denali And of course the expensive lingerie doesn’t hurt either. But now we’ve begun to fixate solely on the curls. Now this is how you do big hair.
We’re thinking it might be time to bust out the big curling iron and our Bumble and blackhawks jerseys bumble Surf Spray and embrace the insane humidity.

embrace the more playful girl I once was in 1987

But I just can’t get onboard with this one? To me it feels too costume-y. Am I wrong? Do I need to embrace the more playful girl I once was in 1987?
I’ve been thinking about this picture of Alexis Bledel from WWD since I saw it mac brushes earlier today.
While I appreciate the Gilmore memories that any picture of Rory brings to mind mac makeup, I’m less enthusiastic about the 80s era flashbacks to hair I’d rather forget.
And I loved the genius that went into creating all those individual hairstyles at Marc’s show in February,north face denali but I’ve been slightly afraid of how exactly 80s hair would be translated into the mainstream.
Now, the high side pony seems to be creeping its way into my daily life. I’ve seen it out and about in Manhattan—for both day and evening.

I wore this look well back in seventh grade.blackhawks jerseys Along with a boatload of banana clips. And I can even now oft be found with a low side pony, especially while donning my favorite fedora.

to a special private performance by Common at Capitale

Diesel is continuing its ongoing partnership with the world of music with its next big giveaway for Diesel Only the Brave.
Starting next week (Monday, in fact) the first 500 people to spend $117.50 on Only the Brave merch (yeah,mac brushes not sure on how they arrived at the amount!) at select Macy’s locations will receive two tickets to a special private performance by Common (the face of the fragrance) at Capitale.
I’ve always been a Common fan. I like his music,mac makeup his sense of style, his GAP ads, and find that he has a lot of interesting things to say. And free tix to any small live show are always a welcome addition to my calendar.
So if you need to stock up on some manly fragrance for yourself or someone else north face denali, you might want to make Monday your shopping day. More details on participating locations and the concert after the jump!

Participating Stores: Macy’s Herald Square, Rego Park, Kings Plaza,blackhawks jerseys Garden State Plaza and Cross Country.

makeup looks you’ve been checking out lately

I can’t believe it’s almost August. But it is.mac brushes And that means that Fashion Week will be here before I know it mac makeup, so it’s time for me to start thinking about how I want to transition my look.
All summer, I’ve stayed pretty true to the coral lip and lined eyes that I fell in love with when I saw Kate Moss’ Topshop shoot.
(By the way,north face denali thanks to all of you who recommended MAC’s Lady Danger in the comments on that post. I’m already on my second tube.)
And now, I think I’ve found my first new look for fall thanks to Diane Kruger at the Inglourious Basterds premiere earlier today in Berlin.

The eyes are subtly smoky, but not overly made-up. The matte red lip seems like a natural move from the coral days of summer.blackhawks jerseys And I am dying over the hair. It’s so simple but the visible bobby pins (while not a new concept) look really simple and fresh – perfect for my still-growing out bangs. Though I’m going to have to do something to mimic Diane’s gorgeous texture. (I’m considering the Brazilian keratin treatment just to smooth my hair in general. Let me know if any of you have tried it because I would love to hear first-hand if you liked it.)

Maybelline’s global makeup artist

All that buzz was right (as usual), MAC’s officially out at the tents, marking the first major SS10 Fashion Week announcement,mac brushes and Maybelline’s officially in.
This season, one of two left at Bryant Park before IMG pitches its tents uptown at Lincoln Center,mac makeup will be orchestrated by Maybelline’s global makeup artist, Charlotte Willer. She’ll lead the backstage teams for all the shows at the tents which, this season, includes Erin Wasson x RVCA.

Maybelline, who was also the launch sponsor for Modelinia earlier this year, is edging its way into a higher fashion game,north face denali one that basically is MAC, “As the #1 makeup brand worldwide, we are thrilled to have the opportunity to partner with the world’s most respected fashion platform, which happens to be in our home town.”
We’re confident MAC will continue its off-site presence,blackhawks jerseys but we hope Maybelline realizes what big shoes it has to fill.
