Tiger Woods’ mistress, Joslyn James, is hoping to capitalize on her, er, fame, with a nail polish line due out next [...]
And We All Shine On
We had an internal debate this morning over whether or not it was too early to start talking about sparkly makeup, but the Elf on the Shelf toys we saw in a shop window on our way to the office made it abundantly clear that the time to embrace the holiday spirit is now. So, [...]
Keep Your Eyes On The Prize
We believe in the power of eye cream—always have, always will. Long before we began taking any other preventative skincare measures against the inevitable onset of aging (think: antioxidant-charged serums, retinoids, etc.), we relied on that little jar. There’s just something about the act of patting it on that has always made us feel instantly [...]
“Alien Beautiful,” Backstage at Rochas
“Marco [Zanini] likes a sculpted beauty,” makeup artist Lucia Pieroni said backstage at the designer’s Spring Rochas collection. “A simple, yet made-up” look that she and her coiffing counterpart, Eugene Souleiman, delivered in spades. Working off one of this season’s big trends—”perfection,” fifties-style—Pieroni added a sci-fi twist, channeling Tim Burton’s 1996 film Mars Attacks. “It’s [...]
U.E.S. Bathing Beauties, Backstage At Vera Wang
“Gorgeous, creamy, golden fabulousness” is how makeup artist Lucia Pieroni described her handiwork backstage at Vera Wang, where she had taken up the task of creating the perfect Upper East Side woman. “She’s in her fabulous apartment and she just got back from the beach so she’s a little dusty,” the Clé de Peau color [...]
Little Red Riding Hood, Not So Little Anymore
Amanda Seyfried’s features are the stuff beauty executives’ dreams are made of, which is presumably why she scored the coveted role as Clé de Peau’s first-ever celebrity spokesperson. Her full lips, wide-set eyes, and thick, honey-hued locks need very little in the way of augmenting, but she went for a little extra oomph at last [...]
“Redefining Chic,” Backstage at Rochas
“It is winter,” Wella global creative director Eugene Souleiman quipped backstage at Rochas, where he was fashioning yet another “handsome,” masculine-inspired hairdo to add to his growing Fall repertoire. (Souleiman has been one of the coiffeurs responsible for the trend’s ascendance, giving it a similar spotlight at both Narciso Rodriguez and Missoni.) But cold, harsh [...]
Carey Mulligan’s Hair Heartache; Politicos: Hot Or Not?; And More…
All the dying, bleaching, cropping, and cutting has apparently taken a toll on Carey Mulligan’s tresses. The actress is reportedly taking Kérastase protein pills to grow her hair back to its An Education-era length. Personally, we like her with a pixie. [Daily Mail]
Proving that politicians are not immune to our country’s fascination with youth and [...]
Clé De Peau Goes For Gold
I swore by sterling silver as a teenager, but I fell for gold in college and I’ve never looked back. As my buying power increased with each part-time job (the bowling alley/martini bar I worked at for a brief spell at 21 paid a pretty penny, I’ll have you know), I discovered that it wasn’t [...]
Clé De Peau Goes Hollywood
The latest news on the celebrity spokesperson front: Clé de Peau Beauté, Shiseido’s high-end brand for all things skin perfecting, has just announced that its global brand ambassador will be Amanda Seyfried. This is a first for the Japanese cosmetics giant, which has relied on hand-picked models to properly showcase its range of gorgeous, high-performance [...]
