Get nude with Napoleon Perdis, swirl it with Cindy Crawford, prime it with Make Up Forever and Candy Gloss it with Jane Iredale. We’re best betting on a myriad of makeup finds.

Shiseido’s Dick Page doesn’t believe in trends. He believes in having fun with beauty and makeup, loves a glowing complexion, punky eye makeup and sunscreen. Page is this month’s In the Hot Seat subject and he shares lots of patented tips and beauty advice. <3.

Mally’s must-haves

Keep bright and beautiful, despite the heat

Nail art. Why the hell not? Art comes in all forms –simple, extreme, colorful, dark– so why not expand it to the nail region? This concept is very popular in Asian countries and is starting to catch on over here. That’s why I was game for a session. The art lasts between 2-4 weeks without <... >

Bountiful Beauty Balms

Rounding up the best for beautiful you!

O to the M to the G. We don’t normally speak like our little sisters, daughters and assistants, but this news elicited such a response. M•A•C Cosmetics has partnered with former Vogue Paris editress Carine Roitfeld for her own 20-piece collection which hits counters in the fall.  Summer is still over a month away and <... >

Give your bag a Spring cleaning

Perfect Products for Perfect Peepers!

Coral, pink, red and tangerine hues are blossoming for spring, and these two brands with creamy, hydrating lip color are so fresh, you’ll want to slap them. Oooh! Besame, which means “kiss me” in Spanish, is a downright voluptuous product line, and reminiscent of 1940s Hollywood with its rich pigments in unique vintage tins, sticks <... >

Armed, ready and beautiful for Spring!

Full disclosure here: M•A•C is without question one of my Top 3 favorite makeup lines. It tops the list, actually, thanks to the cutting edge vibe that the company puts forth, the constant influx of new products and shades, the range of shades of eye shadows (can’t live without Carbon or Jest) and the shine <... >

While most makeup removers indeed deliver on their promise, not all are exactly the safest for use in the eye area. Those who wear contact lenses or have just plain sensitive skin are especially vulnerable to the “feels toxic” <... >

Clean and kinky beauty!
