Bourjois Smile Enhancing LipGloss

The so-called “gloss for a snow-white smile” mostly creates just the illusion of white teeth due to a special gloss formula, which seems to illuminate the teeth with a coldish shade. But the novelty from Bourjois is “working” quite differently.

The new gloss from Bourjois is called Smile Enhancing Gloss, and it is a smart little thing – two products in one. On the one hand, it is a lip gloss, and on the other hand, it is a tooth gel. The gel works wonders with your smile! Just one touch of the applicator – and here is the immediate effect!

Those who have had the opportunity to try this miracle at the presentation of the new items say that, of course, you will not get a white even row of teeth like the Hollywood divas, but there is definitely a certain effect.

The shades of the lip gloss are pleasant as well: soft, natural and warm. They create a good contrast with the whiteness of teeth.

The new item will be available only in October 2011.

Kardashian Kolors Nail Polishes

Here comes the long-expected Nicole nail polish collection by the Kardashians and OPI, and it is unostentatiously announced as Kardashian Kolors.

It is a set of 14 colors (yes, some of the dictionaries still give the old-fashioned spelling!) that are rather predictable but look good. The outstanding feature is the names that embrace the whole family in a spate of funny wordplay like Sealed With a Kris, Kim-pletely In Love, Khloe Had a Little Lam-Lam, or kolorful Rainbow in the S-Kylie. Hard Kourt Fashionista and Kendall on the Katwalk are descriptive and memorable, tempting us to choose by name rather than by kolor, but at the price of $8 each you can just get the whole pack.

There may be another attempt quite soon to misplace some more c’s on the part of the enterprising family – it becomes an unpopular letter in the fashion alphabet, no?

365 Days’ Makeup Applied on One Day

We are so used to putting on makeup that we never give a conscious thought to the fact that we do it every day, 365 days a year. But this very thought impressed folks at Nowness, including their directors Lernert & Sander, so deeply that they couldn’t rest until they saw what it would be like! Consequently they brought in model Hannelore Knuts, a couple of makeup artists and had 365 layers of war paint laid on the patient model’s face.What’s more, they didn’t miss a thing, beginning with foundation (seven bottles emptied and then some), going on to blush (two bottles drained), cream eye shadow (another two bottles), and lip gloss (three containers gone). A year’s beauty magic took nine long hours to create – without stopping for lunch or tea. Care to repeat the feat?

Kate Moss to Launch a Makeup Collection

Kate Moss has been collaborating with the British Rimmel makeup brand for 10 years, but now she has decided to not just be the face of the brand, but to launch her own makeup collection for Rimmel and present it by herself.

This is the first makeup collection created by the model. Previously, Kate was invited to create her own line of clothes (the TopShop brand had been working with Kate Moss for a few seasons, but last year Kate broke up the partnership) Actually, Kate spent too much time as the face of the brand during the last 10 years of cooperation and loyalty to the Rimmel brand, so the model surely deserves her own project.

The news about Kate’s creation of her own makeup collection has not been formally announced yet. It is expected that this will happen in a few weeks, since the packaging design has not been completed yet. This was reported by the representatives of Coty.

The makeup by Rimmel and Kate will appear on the shelves of London’s shops in September.

Trendy Nail Lacquer Colors for Fall 2011

Since Chanel nail lacquers are considered the most trendy and the best in quality worldwide, it is logical to learn what shades will be fashionable this autumn, with Chanel in particular.

There are two tendencies that will remain for sure, and we can already adjust to the new images.

For example, it is already known that the makeup in the vamp or emo style returns. And it will bring the graphite and metallic nail lacquers back.

There will be three such lacquers in the Chanel autumn collection of makeup:

• Graphite
• Quartz
• Peridot

In August or early September 2011, these shades of the Fall 2011 season will be on sale.

Another trend is diametrically opposite. It has been recently demonstrated at the showing of the Chanel (2011-2012) cruise collections. This is the so-called nail-free trend (that is, without a manicure).

By the way, this show has demonstrated not only nude nail manicure, but a delicious nude makeup as well.

Lady Diana’s Bag Inspired Dior Eye Shadow Palette

Exclusive, luxurious, and real works of art – it is all about Dior shadow palette that the brand produces each season. The palette is distinguished by an exceptional design, an extraordinary color scheme, and a beautiful story. This time, the story is about a Lady Dior handbag.

For some reason, when the matter concerns bags, many think of Chanel, but not Dior. And the designers of the brand are confident it is wrong, for at least one Dior handbag should necessarily be in the arsenal of any stylish woman.

So they decided to recall the famous Lady Dior handbag. This model gained fame when Mrs. Chirac presented one of such bags to Lady Diana. The princess just fell in love with it, carried it everywhere, and almost did not let it out of her hands. It is worth noting that after this event Dior boutique shops were taken by storm by the ladies searching a handbag they liked.

The line of Christian Dior makeup is closely linked to the brand’s history, so each season presents us with a shadow palette dedicated to various pages of Dior biography. It is worth recalling the luxurious palette dedicated to Mitzi Bekar, Christian Dior’s muse (the shadow palette has been released this spring),

or the palette, which was created by the makeup artist Tien in honor of his 30th anniversary of collaborating with Dior,

or the palette created in honor of the first haute couture collection in 1947. The design of the shadow palette is borrowed from Rene Gruau’s drawing, one of the first Dior posters (the 2010 edition).

This time, in summer 2011, a new page of Dior history is Lady Dior handbag which once inspired Lady Diana and nowadays brings joy to millions of women all over the world. Mind that the chosen color palette is contemporary. It was in this bright-red variant that the Lady Dior bag was presented in Dior’s spring-summer collection. The designers of the brand find the combination of a red bag with a blue tweed the most successful.

It is also worth saying that these palettes should not be regarded as a must-have thing. These are often very limited editions. For example, the palette dedicated to the first haute couture Dior collection was released in a limited edition of just 150 copies.

Artistic palettes are of particular interest to collectors and fans of the brand, and we simply need to enjoy them as a work of art.

2011 Is the Time to Grow Nails

Girls, we should eat more vitamins and attend nail-strengthening procedures. Let us invest money in the plates for nails and super-resistant coating. Why? Because all of this will come in handy in Fall 2011.

The fashion shows of Fall-2011 have offered a new autumn trend in manicure. Makeup experts of several fashion shows, held at New York Fashion Week, have marked the models with long and even extra-long nails.

Following the “Color blocking” trend for nails

as well as metallic,

Fall 2011 will bring joy to the supporters of false nails. Extremely long variants (Emanuel Ungaro, Joanna Mastroianni and The Blonds) are back in the swim.

Hottest Makeup and Fashion Trend

The hottest color blocking trend has entered our lives this spring fast and loud. This trend features combinations of large blocks of color (for example, blouse+skirt, pants+blazer), no prints, but colors are to be the most vivid and sometimes can match in tone.

The trendiest color block combinations are:

• Orange+ Purple
• Orange + Fuchsia or Magenta
• Blue + Green
• Blue + Blue

The key aspect of the trend is that the blocks of color are to be sufficiently large.

However, any new fashion trend never exists in vacuum, but rather it usually spills into accessories and makeup trends. The world of accessories has also welcomed the idea of combining local bright colors. The trendy color pairs can be extended to the combination of shoes+ bag.

The makeup artists are not ignoring this trend either. The color block trend was already part of the nail fashion last year, when the hottest trend was to paint each fingernail into a different color. Lips makeup is currently welcoming this trend as well.

Note, that while nail polish lasts quite some time, you will probably need a good primer in order to keep the color on your lips longer. Plus… you will need to keep your mouth open?

The photo is indeed luxurious!

Kardashian Sisters Are Launching Opi Nail Enamel Collection

Kardashian sisters project is going to be targeted at the nails. It adds a new item to their long sale list that includes clothes, jewelry, tanners and what not. So how about a splash of the Kardashians on your fingers, reality show fans? Kim, Kourtney, Khloe and Nicole by OPI will see to it that their nail statement hits the market soon (competing with other OPI collaborations like Justin Bieber & Nicole polish, Glee polish from Sephora, Katy Perry and Serena Williams stuff with OG).The project has been brewing since some time in April – at least as reflected in the sisters’ Twitter messages. Khloe and Kourtney have been sounding off about “amazing top secret” meetings at OPI for some time now with Kourt claiming to go crazy over their polish colors. The final confirmation came this week from Kim who shared they got round to shooting the ad campaign for the product that was announced as a new GLAM nail polish line for Nicole by OPI. Kim went on to promise the best “glitz and glam” colors that they are sure will delight fans.

Salma Hayek to Launch Makeup Collection Nuance

Salma Hayek has long been intriguing the journalists with the news. And finally it has been officially confirmed that there will be a new makeup line by Hayek. In August, there will be the debut sale of the new line products.

About 100 items of decorative makeup, means of skin and hair care have been scheduled for release in total and are already in production. The collection is called Nuance, and the products represent the mass-market. However, some people predicted that those had to be luxury products, alluding to the actress’s connection to the luxury market (Salma’s husband is the manager of Pinault-Printemps-Redoute, the group of luxury companies).

Salma says she just wants to create a better product and to give everyone access to the better things. When Hayek speaks about the new makeup, she knows what she speaks about. For a long time Salma herself has been a fan of good makeup and understands it perfectly well.

The fact that the makeup collection was created with the assistance and pieces of advice given by Salma’s mother, a cosmetologist by profession, inspires confidence that the new products are of high quality. Thanks to her mother, Salma has introduced in her Nuance makeup such rare ingredients as the bark of rare trees from Mexico and Brazil. This extract restores the red blood cells and acts as a powerful anti-age agent.

It is naturally a great pleasure that Salma Hayek does not only produce makeup, it is her commercial image as well.

The prices for the new products are expected to be affordable, ranging from $ 7.99 to $ 19.99. And the first sales will take place in August only in CVS so far.

Violent Lips Temporary Tattoos

What started with nails has moved on to lips, and it may be that lips of just one color will soon be considered definitely out, an old-fashioned setup without due regard to modern artistic possibilities. To be in the vanguard of le dernier cri you can try Violent Lips – the “temporary tattoos” that adorn your lips with patterned design.

How about wearing animal prints on your lips (including some wacky ones like pink leopard pattern), make them out in rainbow colors or polka dots? It may sound a bit fresh when you first think of it, but there’s no doubt that it will be the very thing as part of an outfit for a dancing party where your violently patterned lips are gonna strike the right note. The designs are reported to hold up to eight hours and are easy to remove.
