Beauty Snacks: Sites of the Day, July 10

July 10th, 2008 by Karen 9 Comments

Imelda
It’s not unusual to like shoes. I like shoes. Most women do. But Imelda (yes, in honor of that very same one) doesn’t just like shoes — no, with them she defines her very existence and life itself!

Raging Rouge
Jen always gets the scoop on the best cosmetics and beauty bargains. How does she do it? Ya got me, but if Sephora.com is offering 10% off all purchases with a coupon code, Jen will know about it. She’s a top beauty blogger with an eye for detail and someone you can turn to for accurate news.

Total Beauty
Total Beauty burst onto the beauty scene less than a year ago, and in that time they’ve become one of the top, corporate-backed health and beauty e-magazines for women. Product reviews, how-tos and quick tips, samples and contests, message boards and a section dedicated to beauty, health and fashion blogs — Total Beauty has a lot to offer.

Crazy Blind Date
Crazy Blind Date likes to keep things simple. On very short notice they can set you up on quick dates with total strangers at public places like bars and coffee shops (safety first!). You’re not allowed to see their picture or even communicate with your dates beforehand. Yes, it’s risky, but that’s why they call it Crazy Blind Date.

Lancome
Beyond Lancome’s great eyeshadows and liners, their website has one of the coolest makeup tools around. With the Color Explorer, you pick your skin tone, and the tool suggests a list of different products that might work for you.

Update:
Bella Sugar Retro Beauty Slide Shows
Have you seen the slide shows on Bella Sugar featuring vintage beauty ads? These retro print ads from the 30s and 50s are kinda cool and funny at the same time. My favorite is the print ad for a product called Irresistible Liplure, which claims “You’ll be sparkling, electric, ready to conquer the world and the man!” LOLOLOLZ!

    Hi Dao,

    I went on a few before I met El Hub, and they were actually a very interesting experience. It helps to be in a talkative mood and to have a positive attitude about the situation. Are ya looking around right now? Whatever you do, don’t date a DJ, LOLOLZ!

    Somehow… I missed this amazing Raging Rouge shout-out last year (may have been because my son was only 7 days old when you posted this–so busy)! Anyway, I just stumbled on it today and wanted to say thanks. I’m a huge fan of Makeup And Beauty Blog! You’re a talented writer and makeup artist, and naturally I always love a fellow makeup junkie!

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).
