DVF’s Wonder Woman Comic Book

October 15, 2008

Where can you read an original story by Diane Von Furstenberg, a letter by Lynda Carter, and an introduction by Gloria Steinem all in the same book?  DVF’s comic book,  The Adventures of Diva, Viva & Fifa.  She just launched her Wonder Woman inspired holiday collection this week at her studio and the book was one seriously haute highlight to the evening.

20081015_dvfcomic_1_190x190.jpg

The book is a limited edition for the holidays and can be purchased online at the DVF site - all of the book’s proceeds benefit Vital Voices, a nongovernmental organization that embodies Von Furstenberg’s goal to empower women to find inner strength on a global scale.

Get ‘em while there haute!…

Beauty Trend: Roller Ball

October 15, 2008

The latest packaging trend – roll-on beauty products – is really making its mark.  Skip the lengthy beauty routines, have less of a mess and roll your way to beauty!  Check out a few of our skincare, makeup and fragrance favorites below:

By Terry VIP Skin-Expert Peace & Glow
This calming and soothing multi-active skincare roller ball activates micro-circulation and drains tense and puffy areas. Features are softened, skin tissue is relaxed and the serenity of the face is restored. Active ingredients include hydro-calming extracts, antioxidants and regenerating proteins. Antioxidant properties protect skin fibers from free-radical stress damage.
Price: $65, available at Barneys and www.barneys.com

Garnier Skin Renew anti-puff eye roller
Roll away under-eye puffiness and dark circles for brighter, more radiant eyes. Caffeine decongests puffiness and diminishes dark circles and Pro-Vitamin B5 refreshes and hydrates the delicate eye area. Skin Renew gently stimulates micro-circulation around skin’s delicate eye area to decongest excess fluid for diminished dark circles and puffiness.
Price: $12.99, available at Walgreens

Lorac Double Feature
LORAC Double Feature delivers red-carpet-worthy correction and perfection. Cover undereye circles and hide blemishes with this oil, paraben, and fragrance-free full-coverage, long-wearing concealer stick, then blend in with the blender ball.
Price: $24, available at www.sephora.com

Tarte Lock & Roll Creaseless Eyeshadow Duo
Unlike traditional cream shadows that crease and smudge, Tarte Lock & Roll Creaseless Eyeshadow is waterproof and crease proof. A new twist on the makeup artist trick, the matching loose shadow in a roller ball applicator glides easily over cream shadow to lock color in and add luminosity so color lasts all day.
Price: $17, available at www.sephora.com

Sugar & Butter

October 12, 2008

sugarbutter.jpg

Cold winter winds will be here before we know it…order  Jane Iredale Sugar & Butter Lip Exfoliator ($24 at DermStore.com) now to keep your lips soft & full (there’s nothing cute about dry, chapped lips).

One end is a yummy brown sugar exfoliator you gently rub on & lick off.  A moisturizing lip plumper on the other end softens and adds fullness along with  a wash of sheer color.  Use it alone or under your lip color.
