Mascara smudges are the devil, especially because they can go unnoticed by you for hours, if there is nary a mirror in sight.
Take the proverbial devil by the horn by keeping a pack of Bare Escentuals Bare i.d. On The Spot Eye MakeUp Remover Swabs, a compact pack of swabs, each filled with a pre-measured amount of aloe vera and vitamin E-infused makeup remover. All you have to do is break the tip with the colored ring, let the fluid release and saturate the other tip, then — voila! — mascara smudges begone. It’s saved my face on more than one occasion.
Say it ain’t so.
Summer is thisclose to drawing to a close, signaling the beginning of the end of tans, lazy days near the ocean, popsicles and that perfectly wind-swept hair from afternoons on the beach.
The one good thing is that salt water from dipping into the ocean will no longer wreak havoc on your tresses, but in case the damage is already done, you might want to invest in a jar of Fango Hair & Scalp Mask from Italian brand Borghese.

Increased interest in pin-up girls, glamour shots and burlesque can be attributed to the lovely Miss Dita von Teese, a modern day pin-up gal who single-handedly brought back the coquettish sexiness that came with hourglass figures, blood red lips, swiveling hips and come-hither eyes.
Jemma Kidd — little sister to model Jodie Kidd — married British royalty (her hubby is Arthur Wellesley, Earl of Mornington), opened up a makeup school and launched an wildly successful, eponymous makeup collection.
Not too shabby.
The hottest of the four seasons means many, many happy-inducing things: sand and surf, tans, vacations, ice cream, dresses, gladiator sandals, beach-y hair, drinks on patios, BBQs, cruiser bikes and a carefree, insouciant attitude to life in general.
It also means the warmer clime makes your sebaceous glands go into overdrive, giving you a shine that says more oil-patch kid than bronzed glamazon.
