You’ve probably heard of smudge-free make-up. You’ve also probably heard of long-lasting make-up. But have you heard of make-up that literally absorbs oil, refracts shine, disperses pigments, absorbs excess water, and get this, lowers make-up surface temperatures by 15-20 desgrees for 10-12 hours??

Okay so we all know that the cosmetic industry has come out with some pretty wacky things. There are scrubs, lotions and potions for all sorts of beauty remedies – no matter how strange and unrealistic they are. I for one have never been a firm believer in any anti-cellulite products (this includes anything under [...]

I can’t speak for everyone else… but I personally am SO OVER dull nail polish.Winter’s over – get rid of the maroons, blacks, deep blues, etc. Once you see all of the amazing new (and bright!) colors out there – you’ll thank me.

Forget your ordinary body bar or shower gel – if you want an indulging spa experience in the shower – take a chocolate body scrub in with you.
Maybe it’s just the chocoholic in me – but I’m addicted. What’s so great about these rich chocolate body scrubs? All of the chocolaty goodness; none [...]

Forget your traditional eye makeup used to conceal dark circles and brighten eyes. This is something totally new, totally unique, and totally amazing! I tried this new Eye Bright pencil by Benefit cosmetics last week… and I must admit – I am hooked!

It’s 2008 – and life isn’t slowing down. I don’t think I’m alone when I say that “spare time” isn’t exactly a luxury of mine. I’m sure you know the unspoken beauty tricks that we’re all ashamed of (doing makeup in the car, brushing your teeth in the shower, etc.). We’ll do just about anything [...]

…nobody has perfect skin.
But the truth is some people are blessed with better skin tone than others – unfortunately I am not one of them. I look at girls who don’t have to wear face makeup and cringe; with a combination of unspoken jealousy and sheer perplexity.

What’s one of the perks of interning in the beauty closet at Glamour magazine?
….Getting to see new products before they come out. J
Some new fragrances that I couldn’t help but sniff, and love, are below.

The Oscars: beautiful gowns, gorgeous hair and impeccable, dramatic, stunning makeup. This year’s 2008 Oscars, which occurred on Feb. 24, presented a new look – an unexpected pleasant surprise for me.
Forget the red lips, nude colors are in. And despite my recent obsession with bold lip colors, I have to say I am a fan. [...]
