Fall 07 look: Doo.Ri




I'm really loving this look. Futuristic- wearable BladeRunner style..complete with the feasible smokey-eye ( yeah..yeah, I still don't know how to do it).
I love how the smokey eye incorporates the blues(navy and marine)to complement the flesh lip. I hear that MAC is coming out with a lip product to get that flesh look. That should be exciting!
The hair- looks great for dinner and a movie. Very classic with a twist of curls.
What a nice look, no?

Fall 07 look: Nanette Lapore





So NY Fashion week has kicked off! There are a few looks I love coming up this season. One that really caught my eye was Nanette Lapore! I'm loving this new take on the cat-eye, The long lashes and liner can be achieved with Bourjois's Kohl& Contour Eye Pencil in Noir with Benefit's BadGal Lash for Mascara. , for the lightly flushed pink-plummy cheek I would recommend MAC's Britwit Blushcream and or MAC's Breath of Plum powder blush. For the plum/lavender lips- MAC's Screenqueen or Dior's Lychee Rose gloss. Very chic and sexy!

Classics: Love's Baby Soft


So another Classic I thought of ( didn't want to forget) was Love's Baby Soft. So many memories of this baby powder scented fragrance. On the weekends me, my mom and granny used to go to Plaza Bonita and I used to run to JC Penny's to get this stuff ( and their Rain fragrance that's just as good). I think you can now find this scent at your local drugstore. My drugstore of choice? LONGS! I can spend hours in there...

On another note: Rimmel London Cosmetics will launch Rimmel Underground this month in the US. Its supposed to have new Face, Lips and Eyes stuff targeted for us Gen Y'ers. Too bad there are no pics yet... the launch party was last year

It's Oh So Bright!


Its Groundhog day! and Phil tells us its going to be 6 more weeks of winter. So to gear up. i'm ready to get some brights! I think I'm going to stick to the lips now.
For brights I tend to favor lipgloss over lipstick because its more versatile. I like Lancome's Juicy Tube in Cherry Burst. Its a really nice Red that can be worn for fun without drawing unwanted attention. For the office, I like Christian Dior's Dior Kiss in Lychee Rose on top of Victoria's Secret Beauty Rush Grapesicle lip gloss. I think the mix of the two looks really natural to wear everyday.
A good weekender is Victoria's Secret Very Sexy lipgloss in Makeout. Its a really nice bright party pink. Perfect for the superbowl weekend.
