Perfume In Bunches

Fashion and beauty are the Bobbsey Twins of aesthetics.

There are supermodels masterminding the colors of eyeshadow palettes (Daria Werbowy for Lancome) and beauty companies enlisting style icons to pump up their lines for the masses (Cory Kennedy for Urban Decay).

The 4 Day Stay

Megan Fox and Angelina Jolie I am not.

Waking up every day with long, lush lashes that hardly require the help of mascara is not something that happens to me — or most people — on a regular basis, but Tarte Cosmetics has come up with a brilliant way to fake it.

A Cheeky Choice

A deathly pale pallor is not becoming on anyone, unless your name is Dita von Teese.

Blush is essential to bringing life, youth and vigor to the face, as long as you leave the round clown cheek blush dots to Village Voice scribe Lynn Yaeger. The difficulty in maintaing faux color all day is having to lug around both a powder palette and big brush to re-apply Nars’ Orgasm or MAC’s Stylus when the hump of mid-day hits.

Gisele Bundchen For Max Factor

Sayonara, Carmen Electra.

Gisele Bundchen has been named the new face for Max Factor in North America, replacing Electra, who has been the cosmetic company’s face since 2006.

Help Me

Forget lip gloss, forget blush, and forget bronzer.

Apparently the chicest thing to apply on your body is none other than a bandage. Yes, I’m talking about those tacky-colored adhesives that staunch blood flow after a wipeout and cover the subsequent ouchie. Except these things aren’t so not tacky anymore — remember Alexandre Herchcovitch’s prints for Band-Aid??

Don’t Make Me Blush

Lifetime is just killing it with the fashion-slash-beauty reality shows.

In addition to snatching Project Runway from Bravo, Lifetime is running a six-episode reality series on the web called Blush: The Search for America’s Greatest Makeup Artist this November. The premise is the same as Project Runway: contestants, judges, challenges and host.
