BellaSugar's Gift Guide: Your Party Pal
I think girlfriends are the most fun to shop for because you can push it to the limit or just indulge her in some of the things that you'd love to borrow. That does sound selfish, but hey, that's what friends are for!
Take these Glitz, Glam & Glosses for example (£19.50).
Backstage Pass To LFW Spring 2010: Ones To Watch
What makes the Ones To Watch so show special is that different blossoming designers come together (it's much more economical) to showcase their latest creations. On Monday evening, Ada Zanditon, Dean Quin, Hermione de Paula and Marko Mitanowski brought down the house in four sections. The challenge for makeup artist Rachel Wood was to "come up with a neutral look that could be easily added to and changed for each designer."
Backstage Pass To LFW Spring 2010: Ziad Ghanem
During Fashion Week and especially in London, you see a lot of things. Some of the beauty looks are edgy and have that certain British je ne sais quoi, whilst other shows exhibit a and polished and safer style of hair and makeup that you might expect to see from the high fashion catwalks. However, at Vauxhall Fashion Scout, a location for up and coming designers on the cusp of hitting the big time BFC tents — anything goes!
Backstage Pass To LFW Spring 2010: William Tempest
On Monday evening, FabSugar UK and I made our way backstage at before the highly anticipated William Tempest Fashion Show. Lan Nguyen was there heading up the makeup team on behalf of Benefit Cosmetics, and Tim Furssedonn was the head hairstylist in charge for Toni & Guy. Tim took a few moments out of his busy schedule to explain the inspiration behind the look for the show and how he created the slick style.
Backstage Pass To LFW Spring 2010: Mattijis
On Friday afternoon, the buzz backstage at the Mattijis van Bergen show all about a creating a fun loving, sexy and Summery feel. Hair was pulled back and teased in the front to create a kind of frizzy, wind-blown effect, whilst makeup was controlled yet luminous using toned down metallics. My pal, the friendly makeup artist Rachel Wood said,
"Because the designer is using copper and bronze jewellery, I wanted to complement the look and accent the eyes with that same colour scheme.
How To: Get Sienna Miller's Healthy Hollywood Glow
At last night's Los Angeles premiere of G.I. Joe: The Rise Of The Cobra, Sienna Miller positively glowed on the red carpet. Considering she recently said that she'd be happy to wear a bin bag on these last legs of her gruelling promotional tour, she sure does cleans up like a champ when the event calls for it.
Take A Stroll Down Crescent Row With Benefit Cosmetics
The best selling brand in the UK has taken a field trip to Bath and what they saw there completely rocked their world. Benefit Cosmetics owners Jane and Jean have been looking for a way to incorporate Jean's daughters Maggie and Anne into the family business. About two years ago, the girls visited Bath and were in awe of the Royal Crescent.
How To: Get January Jones's Cocktail Chic Makeup Look
Last night at the TCA AMC cocktail reception in California, actress January Jones arrived in a cutesy black-bow frock with her hair styled in a chic coif and perfectly flawless makeup. January always looks amazing, but I like how her makeup isn't too overdone here. With some filler on her brows, a dewy base, a touch of black liner, mascara and finally a tomato red lipstick, this siren makes getting red carpet ready look as easy as pie!
Bella Bargain: 50% Off Benefit "Buh Buys"
This is one deal I'd rather say"hello" to: Benefit's currently offering 24 products at 50 percent off. Included in these buh buys are several shades of glosses, shadows, and more, along with a couple products you've already reviewed (like Jiffy Tan).
The selection features favorites from face wash and foundation to eye and lip liners, so I'm seeing a great reason to stock up on a familiar product or try something new — but don't complain if you feel half-off makes you want to spend twice as much in the end.
Get Emma Watson's Harry Potter Premiere Makeup Look
Despite the torrential rains at last night's UK Harry Potter Premiere, Emma Watson glowed like a sparkling ray of sunshine. She stood under an over-sized translucent brolly wearing a vintage Ossie Clarke gown and minimal jewels. She was smart to wear her hair up (get her hairstyle here) to avoid frizz, however, her makeup remained in tact all evening long.
