Beauty Snacks: Sites of the Day, August 26

August 26th, 2008 by Karen 5 Comments

We Love Beauty
I always like to start off these Sites of the Day posts with a bang, and I think this week’s bang is a loud BOOM! One of the sharpest looking beauty blogs this side of the Mariana Trench (look at those BANGIN’ Photoshop collages in the posts!), We Love Beauty shares secret beauty tips and tricks that, according to creator Ben Bennet, “…until now, only celebrities have been privy to.”

SMW Photography
I think some of the most inspiring and most breathtakingly beautiful websites out there belong to wedding photographers. SMW Photography blew me away the first time I visited. It’s a creative effects melange that makes me want to get married all over again. You hear that, El Hub?!

Rock Your Look
Have you ever tried karaoke? Be honest — it’s a lot of fun, right? JC Penny sponsors the Rock Your Look site, where users submit karaoke clips of themselves taken with webcams at home. Some of the clips are laugh-out-loud hilarious. It’s like American Idol without the color commentary from the judges.

Nubby Twiglet
What a great name: Nubby Twiglet. Art personality and graphic designer Nubby Twiglet posts daily musings on art, fashion, design and business as well as glimpses of her personal work and travels. Nubby Twiglet, Nubby Twiglet, Nubby Twiglet, LOL!


Tomas Donocik
Jeweler Tomas Donocik creates some really provocative collections inspired by literature and architecture. His site feels like a mysterious trip through a world of luxury and elegance. Bourgeois approved!

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    Ben is the reason why I’m still blogging today…he helped me get my name out there and even had me intern for him. He’s seriously my idol.

    Gonna check out some of these sites. I swear every week my google reader and/or bookmarks keep growing thanks to your awesome recommendations.

    To be honest, I only watch AI for the judges comments. Do you think Paula will be out now that they have added a new judge?

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
