Fall 2010 Beauty Trends

There are a couple of different beauty trends that have stood out this season, and I'm happy to say that they're all pretty wearable.  Keep in mind not everyone will be able to wear them verbatim, but they are very easy to tweek.

The first trend takes a bit of an attitude, but when done right it's absolutely beautiful.  Bold, red lips is as classic as classic gets.  I sometimes have a hard time with this trend because it's very easy to look "overdone",   but paired with a fresh face and minimal eye make-up it can be stunning.

Another trend we're seeing a lot of are grey colored nails.  This trend isn't for everyone, as it can make the hands look lifeless and a little old, but it's a nice alternative to the overdone black palate.  Deborah Lippman, Lancome and Chanel all have varying degrees of grey.  (you can always wear red)

The third trend and one of my favorites, is a bold brow.  This is a trend, that I believe, we should never let go of.  Having a full brow keeps a youthful look to the face.  There are different degrees of thickness to play with depending on the shape and structure of your face, but keeping them on the fuller side could add some softness and youthfulness that is cheaper than botox and fillers:).  Good luck on playing with your new looks...xoxo

New Year, New You!

Well here we go a start of a new decade. When I think back at the start of the last one, and the whole Y2K craziness, it makes me feel old...but only for a second!...Age is a state of mind not the number.:)

I came across a couple of great products that actually do what they say. The first is made by YSL. Yes YSL. When I think of YSL, make up isn't the first thing that pops into my head. But this particular product is great. It's called, TOUCHE ECLAT. It's a highlighter for the skin, that also helps lessen dark circles around the eye. Go to the YSL website and it explains in detail how to wear it. BTW Olivia Palermo is a big fan and apparently this product is so popular one sells every 60 seconds (according to the Barney's sales person).

The second is from Lancome. Lancome Imanance. It's a tinted moisturizer with SPF 15. Just gives the skin that glow that we're all looking for. No doubt that 8 hours of sleep and a ton of water a day is really the secret, but this just helps in the process.

Hope you all like products. And hope you all have an incredible 2010...xoxo
