Hard Candy branches out into fragrances

Email thisPosted Sep 10th 2008 at 7:00AM by Tiffany Neal

Do you remember Hard Candy? The beauty line that every blue-blooded pre-tween had some interaction with during such sadistic childhood rituals like school dances and first day of school appearances.

Well, they kind of don't want to make make-up anymore. We know, weird. As of late, the brand has been practically giving all of its glitter eye shadow and coal eyeliner away for free, offering up to 50% off on most items at the brand's site.

Don't call them Mother Theresa just yet, though. There's a method to this oh so cheap madness. The company is trying to phase out its beauty line, most likely because of slagging sells, so it can focus on "new strategies."

In the meantime, the Hard Candy fragrance that launched last fall is still going strong. The fruity scent will be accompanied with a shower gel and a body lotion in the near future.

As women, we want our mascara to be a macho man -- thick, long, long-lasting, conditioning and waterproof. Okay, maybe that was the wrong metaphor but regardless, we expect a lot out of our mascara but we might not be doing our part in meeting our partner half way.

Here are a few helpful hints to get the best show out of your favorite mascara.

Beauty for dummies. And smarties.

We're getting addicted to the Stylelist how-to slide shows. Today our sister site is showcasing a slew of easy to use make-up items and there are a couple of killer finds in there.

At first we felt a little, well, superior. After all, we have mad make-up skillz, earned through years of clown faced experiments. And the first item in the gallery was that Sally Hansen nail pen we posted about a month ago. Um, yawn.

But then we were very pleasantly surprised by the rest of the products. Not just easy to use, they are also cool!

The smoky eye lie

Email thisPosted Apr 5th 2008 at 12:44PM by Cat Lincoln

At the gym this week, as usual we were watching What Not Wear. It was standard fare until they got to Carmindy, the so lovely, sweet and dreamy make up guru.

The makeover-ee asked Carmindy to show her how to do a smoky eye. Carmindy arched a perfect eyebrow and responded, "Oh, that's what you want to learn?"

Pete Wentz creates make-up line

We have to give it to Pete Wentz.

He has been championing guy liner from the very beginning, so it's only fitting that he would become the first man to emerge from the punk scene to create a line of cosmetics specially tailored for all of the guys out there still bumming Dior's crayon eyeliner off their girlfriends.

Chichi vs. Simple: Black liquid liner dilemma

Email thisPosted Mar 25th 2008 at 3:02PM by Cat Lincoln

My sister swears by this fancy Dior Style Liner and badgered me to try it during a recent visit. The tiny silver pot is delicate and pretty and it made a rich, sooty black line on her. One trip to Sephora and $30 later, I was in the club.

So, 30 bucks for .08 ounces, that must have been some liner gold, right? Well...yes and no.
