I scour the world of beauty so you don't have to. A beauty nut since childhood ( 5), I voraciously read many magazines and websites to get the info as fast as I can on the newest products out there. I love the thrill of a great new product. I love fashion and perfumes. I value honesty and if I say I love a product, I mean it.

Yves Saint Laurent Beauty TEINT RESIST Long Wear Endless Comfort Transfer Resistant Foundation SPF10

11/11/09 at 02:18PM

Teint Resist has the most amazing feel on the skin. Hard to explain but basically it feels like you have no makeup on. It has nice but not full coverage. Coverage is light/medium. Didn't block oil as well as I would have liked, but leaves a nice fin...

Philosophy Kiss Me Tonight Intense Lip Therapy

11/11/09 at 02:10PM

This balm is highly emollient and is great for badly chapped lips. It really does the job. It has a thick consistency and leaves a layer over the lips. There is no color or taste, hence it's "tonight" name. It can be used anytime. Perfect...

Chanel Rouge Allure Laque Luminous Satin Lip Lacquer

11/11/09 at 02:01PM

It's hard to go wrong with a Chanel lipstick and the new Rouge Allure Laque lives up to that and more. You get high pigment, moisture, creamy gloss, and long wear. What more could you want ? This feels smooth on the lips, isn't as sheer or tacky feel...

Clinique Deep Comfort Hand and Cuticle Cream

11/11/09 at 01:56PM

This new hand cream is one of the best I've used. It sinks in fast and really moisturizes. No greasy feeling but instant moisture . It's a thick cream made with murumuru butter that has almost no scent and it helps cuticles too.

Yves Saint Laurent Beauty Parisienne Eau de Parfum Spray

11/11/09 at 01:51PM

This newest YSL fragrance is a nice mix of rose, violet and sweetness. It's not perfect and not as beautiful as the original Paris from years ago, but it is nice in it's own way. The rose is not heavy or powdery, and there is a light hint of musk and...

Illamasqua Eye Shadow

11/11/09 at 04:00AM

I've had 2 Illamasqua shadows for a couple months, but in NYC last week I went into the Herald Square Sephora and got to see the bulk of this hot line. The line is all about deep , color true pigments. Most of the shadows and blushes are matte but t...

Kiehl's Imperial Body Balm

11/10/09 at 04:00AM

Russian winters are tough, so I hear. They certainly look it, so a body balm inspired by keeping warm in those winters is sure to be a winner. Such is the case with Kiehl's new Imperial Body Balm. Loaded with antioxidants, nut butters, and honey and...

11/09/09 at 04:00AM

Cover Girl's ShineBlast is their newest gloss and entry in the " Blast" line. These fun glosses impart a jelly like wash of sheer color on lips. They have no tacky lipgloss feeling at all, but more like a glossy balm. The formula has oils in it to g...
