In its annual Beauty Awards issue, Women's Health gives us their professional recommendations on products they vet from a list of more than 100 newcomers on the market, and the list amounted to an impressive 55. Want to know what they were and their rationale? We weigh the results. Hair The editors were crazy about Catwalk by Tigi Curlesque Strong Mousse for Curly Hair; Umberto Beverly Hills Dry Clean Dry Shampoo; Aveeno Nourish + Shine Shampoo and Conditioner for shine boosting; and Aveda Damage Remedy Daily Hair Repair for leave-in conditioner. We love the Aveeno Nourish + Shine combination because the hair is extraordinarily silky and soft after use --like chartreuse. Face Editors loved the Jurlique Fruit Enzyme Exfoliator; Origins Start Over Age-Erasing Moisturizer with Mimosa; Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew The Brusher Gel-Cleanser and Patricia Wexler Dermatology Intensive Deep Wrinkle Treatment. We agree with the pick of Origins and Patricia Wexler. Origins has never failed to surprise us with their soothing and delightful treats, from their Peace of Mind gumballs to their mimosa moisturizer (you can skip the drink at brunch). Wexler's Intensive Deep Wrinkle Treatment worked for us, and is great for people of all ages. Body Editors picked St. Ives Intensive Healing Hand Cream, Shiseido Ultimate Sun Protection Lotion SPF 60 for Face/Body; Jo Malone London Vanilla & Anise Body Cream for Best Smelling Scent and Flora by Gucci for Sexiest New Scent. We can't get over anything by Jo Malone, and although we haven't tried this body cream, the name sounds absolutely delish -- like a scoop of ice cream. Makeup We looked at all the picks (readers, experts and editors), and agree with and love these makeup items. Okay, CoverGirl LashBlast Volume mascara brings out the best in all of our lashes. And Burt's Bees Replenishing Lip Balm with Pomegranate Oil is really something else. There's nothing that beats MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack for eyeliner, and we give kudos to the experts for picking that. As we absolutely agree with their pick of Guerlain's Terracotta Bronzing Powder and Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation.

We’ve all shared that really pesky problem of chipped nails. It seems that no matter what, nail polish just can’t stay on past a few days (the same duration as your average salon hairstyle). And no girl just wants to keep doling out her hard-earned dollars to the manicurist only to see her hard work disappear quicker than the blink of an eye. Well, say hello to CND’s Shellac, the first Hybrid Nail Color. This product applies like polish, and stays on beautifully for as long as 14 days. SERIOUSLY! 14 days, which makes it perhaps the longest lasting polish on the planet, unless the martians have discovered one themselves. The shellac paints on like real polish, and has a base coat and a top coat that cures in a UV light setting so that there is absolutely no drying time. I was very fortunate to speak to Jan Arnold, the co-founder of CND, who said that the R&D process for this nail lacquer was five years. And this is a glory song for all housewives out there - who do the dishes and keep the house sparkling clean while wanting something totally chip free.

We've loved her ever since the days of Almost Famous, where she played the ingenue and groupie Penny Lane. And how can we not forget her in How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days where she plays the part of the crazy reporter who...

When I first saw the fabrics from Liberty of London, my heart skipped a beat. These prints — so pretty, so Alice in Wonderland and so flowery — reminded me of books that I had read in childhood, and loved: Enid Blyton (whom many of you won’t know because she’s a British author who seems to be the best kept secret since the Illuminati code), and of course, Lewis Carroll. Everything about Liberty of London is so British — and yet, so universal. As I mentioned to you before, the packaging and the colors are really what got me in this collection. The packaging is so beyond cute: it’s Anna Sui, Hello Kitty cute. And it’s so hip that it makes me want to scream with joy! Here, as I continue my MAC Liberty of London journey with you (and what a long, strange journey it promises to be), I’ve swatched two of the lipstick shades I love: Petals & Peacocks; and Blooming Lovely. MAC Liberty of London Petals and Peacocks MAC Liberty of London Petals and Peacocks This pepto-bismol pink (Petals & Peacocks) really stood out (it looks GREAT on darker skins) and is quite prevalent in many of Liberty’s prints.

Last evening, I went to the Shizuka New York Day Spa to get a Swarovkski Crystal Mani. I had not really heard too much about this salon apart from the fact that it had started the infamous “bird poop” facial. Enough said. The mani, which costs...
