Givenchy Sari Spring 2009 Face of the Day: Orange You Glad It’s Almost Spring?
Saturday, January 31st, 2009
Givenchy’s new Sari collection takes bold Bollywood glamor and blends it with sheer shades for spring. Yesterday, I wore some of Sari’s apricots and oranges, daydreaming about spring. I went for a look with bright lips and sheer eyes, and now I can’t wait for warmer weather to wear these colors with a white cotton dress, gold baubles and dark brown strappy sandals, ooh! Here’s a breakdown of the steps I took with my look… A subtle brown and orange eye with black eyeliner I star

Lip Lust - Lancome Electric Pink La Laque Fever
Saturday, January 31st, 2009
Lancome’s Electric Pink La Laque Fever ($26.00) is just such a stunning shade of hot fuchsia pink with a ridiculous amount of shimmer and glitter. It looks like shimmering water on your lips–well, if water was pink! This was by far the most stunning product that came out of Lancome’s Pink Irreverance Collection this Spring. It’s hard to miss it, and it’s even harder to pass it up.Available at:

Tónico para pieles grasas de Estee Lauder
Saturday, January 31st, 2009
Soy una auténtica devota de los llamados tónicos duales, o de doble fase, que llevan líquido y polvos para mezclar y crear un producto que permite controlar la grasa bastante bien. Aunque con los años la producción de grasa disminuye, y yo lo he notado bastante, sigo teniendo mis brillos y tengo comprobado que usar un tónico astringente de este tipo me ayuda bastante. El que estoy usando actualmente es Sparkling Clean de Estee Lauder, que es muy similar al Pure Clean de Lancome y de precio s

Some gifts from Lancôme and Maybelline…guess who checked out the loot before I did:The Tonique Clarté (blue bottle) has been discontinued and replaced with Tonique Radiance. Aside from the much raved eye makeup remover, Bi-Facil, this is one of my top picks from Lancôme. It’s a great refreshing and softening toner for normal to combination skin. I honestly don’t see or feel the difference between the two that makes the other inferior or superior over the other. Can’t wait to try the rest of the
