It seems that just before attention shifts from the menswear shows in Milan (and the blazing row between Giorgio Armani and Dolce & Gabbana over “trousergate”) to the tents of Bryant Park, a few major brands have announced the launch of new men’s fragrances.
With Valentine’s Day around the corner, one might be thinking of what [...]

 When I first started blogging for Makeup.com, I was obsessed with Narcisco Rodriguez For Her, the eau du parfum verison in that simple, modern, pretty pastel pink bottle.
Narciso Rodriguez had me at hello. Or at least first sniff.
Rodriguez is going to make Spring ‘09 a whole lot better me and a lot of scent-loving ladies with his new Essence Eaux De Parfum Collection, which not only has a fragrance but a deodorant spray, body lotion and shower gel, too.

 What’s the best way for a beauty-obsessed girl to spend a dreary, rainy early Saturday afternoon?
In the company of Jennifer Ho, a west coast member of Benefit Cosmetics’ makeup artist roster, naturally.
I arrived at my 1 pm appointment feeling bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, ready to be made glamourous by Jennifer and her arsenal of Benefit goodies. After sitting down in the high chair, she informed me that the brand has actually been around for 30 years, a piece of trivia not known by most.
Benefit is insistent of keeping makeup fun, clearly evidenced by the very cute, pretty packaging and tongue-in-cheek (or is that chic?) product monikers. Jennifer informed me what the brand likes to do is “solve every day beauty dilemmas”, so heavy eye shadow and bright, bright lips aren’t on the cosmetic menu each day of the week.

 What do you get when you pair Matisse progeny with Hennessy progeny?
Fifty bottles hand painted by Sophie Matisse for Killan Hennessy perfumes, of course.
Killian Hennessy takes wafts of scent from his family’s famous cognac and mixes it with the wood barrel smell the liquor is stored in to create decadent fragrances for his olfactory line, By Killian.

 Cold weather equals dehydrated hands, both of which I’d rather be without.
Unfortunately, I can’t control the weather and I can’t fully control the moisture level of my epidermis, but what I can do is try to regulate the latter.
The top two brands in my cream team? That’s easy: L’Occitane and Kiehl’s.
