We're tired of seeing actresses fronting cosmetics lines. How stupid do beauty companies think we are? Does L'Oreal expect us to believe that Diane Keaton wears its Age Perfect Skin Supporting & Hydrating Makeup off-camera? What's worse is that some of these lovelies aren't even...
Calling all bathing beauties: an amazing bath and body line from up-and-coming beauty company Soapier is gathering devotees faster than Paris Hilton makes headlines. Its sumptuous range of soaps, body scrubs and lotions transported us from morning to night in a smoothed, soothed and deliciously scented...
Sweet, creamy, velvety. These are adjectives that could apply to the Red Velvet cake you've been silently craving. But Yves St. Laurent's new Rouge Volupte lipstick (which hit Henri Bendel today) may also fit the bill. The face of this new lippie is Kate Moss. The...
Showers can be really trying. While necessary as oxygen, they can be as comfortable or as hasty as you make them. Unless you have a precious little tool like the Emotibombs from LUSH cosmetics. This pellet is aromatherapy at its best. And truth be told, I...
There are times when even the best of us have a hard time finding a good moisturizer. I know I have hunted high and low like an anthropologist in search of Big Foot to find the perfect combination of high SPF protection, non-greasy texture and...
Like many women, I'm a sucker for great packaging. In fact, the packaging attracts me first (it's the same feeling I get while eyeing the juicy runway colors: who cares if the dresses are wearable? They look good on the mannequin). This is the feeling I...
I've been asking the cosmetics companies for years, "For the love of God, when can I get my hands on Snake Venom Skin Cream?" Friends, Romans, countrymen, that moment has arrived. If you've overheard people comparing your face to an old catcher's mitt, or perhaps a...
It was a dark and stormy night. The people could see ghosts in their breath and auras in every shadow. The wind blew the candles out and the vampires came out and starting distributing Urban Decay lipsticks.Or so the story goes. Fall is all about sporting...
Obagi spoke about how so many brands lead you to over moisturize the skin. His latest “Fight Aging, Fight Hard” ZO Skin Health line gives us no skin-deep promises. He is determined to spread the word that over moisturizing does more harm than good (and yes, I almost tumbled off my chair when he said this…I actually thought he was losing it for a minute). So you’ll see that the ZO Skin Health line does not include any moisturizers.
“Moisturizers are a quick fix,” he says. “They give skin a smooth and silky feeling, but with repeated use skin becomes addicted to them.” Obagi wants skin to fight and work hard, and his products aim to “wake up” the dormant cells that have been so pampered that they can’t even take care of themselves. ZO Skin Health uses pure retinol (the highest OTC dosage) and no moisturizers -- to combat aging, wrinkles, fine lines, discolorations and other major skin problems without resorting to Five Star Spa Quality Skin Pampering. Molton Brown has come a long way since specializing in haircare. Currently, the line is bubbling with skincare offerings that would even make The Body Shop jealous. Travelers can be at peace when they look at some of the gorgeously packed choices. Stowed in a cute...
