Following the heels of Hello Kitty for MAC is the purple-coiffed Australian drag queen -- played by Barry Humphries since the mid-1950s -- is now MAC's latest collaborator. Fully recognizable, thanks to her lilac-colored hair and cat-eye glasses, Dame Edna inspires the limited-edition MAC collection with all sorts of purple and sparkle, the packaging stamped with glittery red glasses, gladiolas (her favorite flower) and her loopy signature. ]]> http://www.makeup.com/blog/beauty-news-dame-edna-x-mac/2008/feed/ 0 http://www.makeup.com/blog/holiday-gift-guide-top-five-picks-from-makeupcom/2008/ http://www.makeup.com/blog/holiday-gift-guide-top-five-picks-from-makeupcom/2008/#comments Mon, 08 Dec 2008 23:01:32 +0000 May http://www.makeup.com/blog/?p=1603 For a generation hellbent on instant gratification, online shopping is quickly becoming the norm when having to buy presents for one's self or others. Thanks to major e-tailers like Shopbop.com, Zappos.com, Yoox.com, Bluefly.com and Makeup.com, fashion and beauty junkies can shop for Marc by Marc Jacobs dresses, Gucci riding boots and Ole Henriksen scrubs in pajamas -- no need to go through the pain of having the dress up in order to avoid shopping discrimination, a la Julia Roberts in 'Pretty Woman'. Fulfilling your favorite beauty junkie's holiday wish list -- even if it means it's your own -- is going to be easier than ever this 2008. ]]> http://www.makeup.com/blog/holiday-gift-guide-top-five-picks-from-makeupcom/2008/feed/ 0 http://www.makeup.com/blog/beauty-tips-jennifer-ho-of-benefit-cosmetics/2008/ http://www.makeup.com/blog/beauty-tips-jennifer-ho-of-benefit-cosmetics/2008/#comments Tue, 02 Dec 2008 20:50:58 +0000 May http://www.makeup.com/blog/?p=1612 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.]]> http://www.makeup.com/blog/beauty-tips-jennifer-ho-of-benefit-cosmetics/2008/feed/ 2 http://www.makeup.com/blog/beauty-tips-black-friday-beauty-must-haves/2008/ http://www.makeup.com/blog/beauty-tips-black-friday-beauty-must-haves/2008/#comments Fri, 28 Nov 2008 21:13:46 +0000 May http://www.makeup.com/blog/?p=1586 Today is Friday, but it's not just any old Friday. This Friday is also known as "Black Friday", which is also known as the first day of the Christmas shopping season. Besides bagging new clothes (Kova & T leggings for sure), a couple pairs of shoes (Sam Edelman Lombardo booties in grey) and some accessories (another chunky cocktail ring, perhaps?), I wouldn't mind picking up a few good things for my ever-burgeoning beauty stash. ]]> http://www.makeup.com/blog/beauty-tips-black-friday-beauty-must-haves/2008/feed/ 0
