face of the day: collette dinnigan spring 2010 ready-to-wear
10/09/2009 at 06:38AM
What with all the heavyweight designers and their outlandish beauty looks presented in Paris this week, such as Marc Jacobs for Vuitton (those 'fros!) and John Galliano (those mime lips!) it was pretty tough to stand out from the pack. But designer C...
fragrance notes: guerlain idylle
10/08/2009 at 08:25AM
As much as I try to fight it, I'm pretty much a classic floral perfume girl at heart. The scent of roses and jasmine are some of the prettiest scents on earth for me, hence, my obsession with Stella McCartney's range of scents that riff on various ro...
face of the day: chanel spring 2010 ready-to-wear
10/07/2009 at 06:32PM
What's not to love about the romantic and perfectly undone beauty look from Karl Lagerfeld's Chanel show? With their updos all tousled and a bit askew, and their hair strewn with foliage-themed combs and barettes (not to mention the flora and fauna-e...
one-hand wonder: belvada cosmetics mascara
10/07/2009 at 10:45AM
Thought you'd seen it all when it comes to mascara? Me too, until I spied this little number from Canadian beauty company Belvada. No, it doesn't vibrate, oscillate or spin, but what it does do is an entirely novel approach to applying mascara. Belva...

styleshock: emma watson at harry potter and the half-blood prince premiere, london
07/12/2009 at 06:21PM
I'm not much of a Harry Potter fan, but like most fashion and beauty-philes, I've been taking note of Emma Watson's glam-stravaganza. She's been making the rounds this past week at various Potter events in all manner of designer duds, and it was at t...
skin fix: shu uemura art of beauty cleansing oil
07/10/2009 at 08:48AM
I've long heard about the cult-beloved beauty product Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil, that's said to have changed the lives of many a beauty editor, but hadn't had the chance to try it until recently. But I'm no stranger to the concept: I've tried and love...
face of the day: valentino couture fall 2009
07/09/2009 at 09:46AM
It seems makeup is no longer enough when it comes to couture: At the Valentino couture show in Paris yesterday, models' eyes were adorned with these stunningly beautiful, lacy, black gothic masks. Some, like this one, ominously covered only one eye, ...
luxe for less: sally hansen volumizing lip shield
07/09/2009 at 05:18AM
Perhaps you've heard the one about lipglosses being the new sun worshippers? Experts say some shiny glosses have an uncanny ability to soak up the sun's rays, making them eerily similar to those aluminized-silver sun reflectors from the 1950s (with t...
face of the day: chanel couture fall 2009
07/08/2009 at 08:38AM
The look at the recent Chanel couture show, from a beauty standpoint, was all about the hair. Voluminous and bird's-nest-like in the front, the back showed an interplay of tattered and tangled black and white hair extensions, some of which, depending...
