Tip of the day: My Cover Girl

Posted Jun 23rd 2008 at 4:35PM by Boydie Beener

Filed under: Cosmetics, Style Tip of the Day


For years we've been choosing makeup shades that we think look good. Until My Covergirl came along. By using the interactive website and plugging in hair color, eye color, and skin tone, we got a personalized list of Cover Girl products. Being a little bit wary of the "perfect" match, we order some of the suggestions that the Beauty Consultant made. Low and behold each color transformed us into a natural beauty. We looked like ourselves – only better. Finally! Now our favorite and tip folders are full as is our Covergirl.com shopping cart.

Kat Von D makeup at Sephora

Posted May 26th 2008 at 2:12PM by Cat Lincoln

Filed under: Cosmetics, Celebrities with Style


You'd expect Kat Von D to have her make up tattoo'd on, right? Us too! So we were surprised to see that she has an exclusive new line of make up at Sephora.

It's a limited line, just a couple of smokey eyeshadow palettes, four lipsticks and some liquid liners. Oh, and a brush kit they refer to as "cool tattools." Sigh. Everyone with the puns.

Chichi vs. simple: Mascara

Posted May 14th 2008 at 4:19PM by Cat Lincoln

Filed under: Cosmetics


It's time again to replace our mascara, and once again we are struggling with the decision: drugstore or luxury?

Today's choice is between a return to the reliable and affordable Maybelline Great Lash in Blackest Black, under $5 everywhere, or upping the ante with a trip to Sephora for Dior Show Black Out Limited Edition, almost five times as expensive at $24?

Everyone knows that you should put out as much as you're comfortable spending on high quality base/concealer/face make up. But mascara is open to discussion. Some experts say buy cheap and often, others say that the only way to avoid Liza-like raccoon eyes (assuming you're not going for that look -- sometimes we are) is to splurge on a big name.

Which way do you sway?

Chichi or simple mascara?

Beauty for dummies. And smarties.

Posted May 8th 2008 at 3:22PM by Cat Lincoln

Filed under: Cosmetics


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!

Flashback: Not pink eye, pink eyeshadow

Posted May 8th 2008 at 10:14AM by Cat Lincoln

Filed under: Cosmetics


Stylelist has a how to guide for wearing colored eyeliner, which is totally fun, and balances really well with all the brights we're seeing for clothes this season.

Clicking through the looks gave us sweet 80s nostalgia. Purple eyeliner! Sparkly green! Ah, ninth grade! Then we came across a pictures of lip liner and vivid pink blush and had to laugh.

Make-up how-to's for women of all colors

Posted Apr 30th 2008 at 11:38AM by Kristen Seymour

Filed under: Cosmetics

We always love reading about a new "how-to" when it comes to make-up -- one never knows when she's going to learn a swell new trick. However, many make-up tutorials on the web are geared toward women with fairly light skin and large eyes, not toward Asian or African American. That's not to say they're not out there -- they're just a bit less prevalent.

Make Up For Ever's lashbar

Posted Mar 27th 2008 at 5:44PM by Lauren Messiah

Filed under: Cosmetics

make up for ever lashbarYesterday I took a breather in Sephora -- I mean really where else can you find inner peace? I found myself in Make Up For Ever's section of the store, which is a section I am not too familiar with. What I found was a bevy of bright eye shadows, glitters, and ridiculously stylish fake eyelashes -- I was in heaven.

I am not a fake eyelash type of girl at all. I have really long eyelashes (don't hate), in fact once when I was at MAC I bought a pair of fakes and my lashes were longer than the ones I bought -- true story. Anyhow, the lashes from Make Up For Ever are amazing, even a girl like me can appreciate these.

The lashes are over the top (to say the least) and super-affordable (about $14 a set). Many of the lashes are made with funky feathers or are so long they surpass your eyebrows. These lashes aren't for daytime use, unless you want to look like a complete fool. I think these hot pieces of beauty are best suited for hitting town and painting it red.

How old is too old when it comes to glitter?

Posted Feb 26th 2008 at 8:03AM by Lauren Messiah

Filed under: Ask StyleList, Cosmetics

glitter faceI have a female friend that is 35 years old and every time she goes out, she insists on splashing glitter all over her face. I told her that a little on her eyes would be okay but that she is too old to be putting glitter all over her face. She looks like a circus clown. My question is, at what age do you think women should stop wearing glitter?

Yikes, there is no right age for looking like a glitter coated circus clown and kudos to you for telling your friend she looks like a fool because it sounds like she does. But to more clearly answer your question, I would say that 29 is the cut off for a face full of glitter. To me once you turn 30 you should have definitely mastered the application of glittery cosmetics.

Now glitter is the trend in cosmetics for Fall 2008 so chances are that your friend is going to get her hands on some. Steer her in the direction of some glitter eyeliner -- it's fun and doesn't end up all over your face. I can almost bet that she will get twice as many compliments with that than her disco fever face.

Good luck!

Fall 2008 Beauty Trend: Glitter Eye

Posted Feb 11th 2008 at 7:06PM by Lauren Messiah

Fall 2008 Beauty Trend: Glitter Eye
I love glitter. I mean what girl doesn't like the shiny stuff? I have been wearing glitter on my eyes for years and years. I can clearly remember myself as a teen heading off to baby-sit with a fresh coat of glitter on my eyelids only to hear my mother shout "Get that crap off of your eyes, you will scare the kids." Newsflash Mama, kids like glitter too.

Glitter may have never left for me but for the rest of the population it's probably been a while since you have rocked it. This coming Fall has been dubbed by MAC Cosmetics as the "season of the glitter eye." I am sure a lot of you just jumped back in horror with images of disco balls and drag queens but fear not because there are many ways to wear this trend without looking absolutely ridiculous.

Go wild: If you want to go wild with this trend there are some awesome beauty products that you should try out. MAC's glitter eyeliner is a personal favorite of mine and comes in a bunch of fun colors. Another great item to try is glitter mascara; this look should be reserved for evening only and be careful not to rub your eyes too much (glitter in the eyes hurts).

Go subtle: If the thought of glitter has you running scared you can go easy with the trend and try a shimmery eye shadow or apply a little glitter lotion to your legs or chest. NARS body glow lotion smells great and will give you the glitter affect without going overboard.

Land a kiss on Valentine's Day with Philosophy

Posted Feb 10th 2008 at 9:40AM by Lauren Messiah

Filed under: Holiday Style, Cosmetics, Steals and Deals

philosophy lip glossAll right boys, I am going to give you a gift idea that is sure to get you lucky on Valentine's Day.

You know the story; you meet a great girl towards that later half of January and things are going pretty well until you realize that Valentine's Day is coming. What do you do? Be a dog and dump the girl to avoid buying her a gift or buy her something extravagant and come off looking strange and desperate? Neither, the key to situations like these is to be cheap without looking cheap. Back in middle school a mix tape would do but today, not so much.

Gift your girl with this tube of Philosophy lip gloss that says "Kiss Me" across the top of the tube. Of course you can't just hand her a tube of lip gloss and stand there puckering like a fool. This simple gift must be given over a lovely dinner with a bouquet of her favorite flowers (no carnations please).

Trust me this simple gesture will have your girl weak in the knees and maybe, just maybe, you will get more than a kiss.

Drugstore Beauty Queen: Rimmel white eyeliner

Posted Jan 22nd 2008 at 2:35PM by Lauren Messiah

Filed under: Cosmetics

Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eye Pencil, Pure White
For about $3 you can have bigger, brighter eyes -- no fooling (and no surgery required). By picking up a white eyeliner pencil at your local drugstore and inner rims of your eyes can look larger.

My Mom had been telling me this particular beauty secret for years. Perhaps it was the rebellious teen in me but I ignored her and went on smearing black liner on my inner rims . Now that I am an adult I have decided to embrace my Mother's beauty secrets. I picked up this $3 white pencil by Rimmel London and lined my lower lid. The results ah-mazing! Having just that touch of white on your inner rims adds an extra 1/8 to your eye.

The Rimmel pencil is great, the application is smooth and gentle so it doesn't hurt that delicate part of your eye. You really can't beat the price too and in this case I think paying anymore than $3 is absolutely ridiculous.

Haute Holiday Gift Guide: Beauty gifts for her

Beauty Gifts for Her
Can I tell you a secret? Women of all ages love beauty products. For women, going into Sephora is the equivalent of a 6-year-old going into Toys R Us! Give the lady in your life that same joy by gifting her with one of the many holiday beauty gift sets of there. Skip the ho-hum cliché Bath and Body works sets because no one is getting excited about those. For the same cost you can get her something a lot nicer. Here are a few of my favorites:

Jaqua Butter Cream Frosting Guilt-Free Body Treats Kit: I can't tell you how many times I have stood inside Ulta and sniffed this until I got a nasty look from the store clerks. These products smell delicious. It's like your nose is hanging out inside a bakery. It's a beautiful thing.

Shu Uemura Eye Kit: Gorgeous eyes are just a squeeze of an eyelash curler, a swipe of the mascara wand and quick draw with an eye pencil.

YSL Palette Pour Les Levres: Wear your lipstick around your neck with this limited edition lipstick necklace by YSL which was inspired by a piece of jewelry that Mr. Saint Laurent wanted his favorite model to wear during his fashion shows.

Losing my eyelash curler virginity

Posted Dec 16th 2007 at 12:11PM by Lauren Messiah

Filed under: Cosmetics

eyelash curler I got beauty slapped a few weeks ago when I confessed that I had never used an eyelash curler (the horror, right?) Leave it my friend Ben from We Love Beauty to come to my rescue. Ben gifted me with this eyelash curler from Japonesque and basically told me "use this or else." Ben is a beauty genius and who am I to argue with a genius so I used the curler.

I lost my eyelash curler virginity the next morning and it was magical. Who knew that one pump of a crazy metal contraption would feel so good. Okay, maybe it wasn't so much of a feeling but the results were certainly magical.

The Power Curl Eyelash Curler took my already long lashes to new heights; literally they lifted up my lashes into a gorgeous curl. This lash curler is different than all the others, so don't be fooled by cheap drug store brands; it has an innovative pivot that puts pressure in all the right places. The result is a more natural curl that will have you looking your best.

So I am dying to know -- am I the only girl on earth who hadn't used an eyelash curler?
