There are as many beauty products as there are fish in the sea (or coral, or kelp or different types of seaweed, but we'll get down to the System of Oceanic Classification some other day). Vapour Organic Beauty really impressed me when I was introduced to...
Comfortable, creamy and fluid - or so the packaging says - but anything made by Clarins not only comes in a pretty package (in this case it's a frosted glass pump with a gold cap), it delivers with more reliability than Fedex Priority Overnight. The new...
Philosophy's marriage to color cosmetics was a little delayed but Hallelujah and raining snowflakes it has happened! You can get the pink-toned Color of Grace collection on QVC, and we're loving some favorites like the ones below: Coloring Book: $37.50 Not Your Boyfriend's Shaving Brush Art of Blushing...
The pencil line etchings on the outerwear of the packaging gives you a doodled version of the contents inside. So Le Petit Prince and kids books in a way, where there's a certain glamor to the naivete of the packaging.
For an intense burst of sunshine, Aqua di Parma's Blu Mediterraneo new scent, Bergamotto di Calabria. This eau de toilette with top notes of bergamot (surprise,) a middle of cedar wood and red ginger, and a base of vetiver, Benzoin, and musk made me want to curl up and take a nap in an orange grove. It's available at sephora.com in 60ml ($70) and 120ml ($106), as well as a soft body cream ($67) for layering.
Givenchy has debuted an alluring segment to its Ange ou Demon collection with Le Secret. While definitely coming down on the "Ange" side of fence, this innovative floral uses its top notes of Italian winter lemon, cranberry, and green tea leaves to make a fresh impression. The heart of sambac jasmine, white peony, and water flowers flows seamlessly into the base of blond woods, patchouli, and white musk. This eau de parfum comes as 30ml ($51,) 50ml ($73,) and 100ml ($95,) at Macy's, Dillard's, Sephora, and GivenchyBeauty.com.
Funky Donkey: A dark purple that's positively psychedelic and my kind of shade.

Pepto Bismol as a Face Mask?
Part of the secret to getting Padma Lakshmi-esque hair is just good genes. When I tried the new Pantene Pro-V Restoratives Breakage Defense Shampoo and Conditioner, I was looking for all the claims to be justified:
- All day frizz control;
- Intensive damage repair;
- Prevention of strand breakage;
So, after a few uses of the Pantene Pro-V Restoratives duo, I found that my hair indeed was terrifically frizz-free. Incredibly so, and it also had some serious shine to it. As for strands, I found that when I used to wash my hair, a lot of strands would come out, and with five uses, they didn't fall as much (and no, it's not the secret diet I'm using either).
