New in Beauty
- Say “om nom” to Marc Jacobs’ new limited edition Splash Scents ($68 each) — Biscotti, Pomegranate and Apple
. - Smashbox says their new $21 Hyperlash Mascara will lift, lengthen, volumize and define! Um…for 21 buckaroos, it better!
- Chanel stole a page from the UPS playbook
with Les Regards de Chanel. The palette of six brown shadows and brow definers has its own answer to “what brown can do for you.” - The Tweezerman rules like the King of the Jungle! Save $5 on these animal print ones ($20 after discount).
- Fake thick hair with Living Proof’s Full Thickening Cream ($14-24).
- *CUTE* packaging for Tarte’s Flower Child Cheek Stain ($30), yah?
- My dark circles want to take Laura Mercier’s Under Eye Perfector ($22) for a spin…
- Doesn’t Van Cleef & Arpels Oriens perfume bottle ($110) look like it belongs in a museum?
- Enter to win Jennifer Meyer Jewelry and Benefit beauty goodies!
- EWW! Let’s all think twice about buying knock-offs of designer perfumes.
- When you’re in the mood for a $50 Chanel snack, these wee flacons of limited edition Chanel Chance scents should satisfy you.
- Trish McEvoy does coy with the Demure collection for spring.
- Um, when I was 13 I was playing Super Mario
Bros and Duck Hunt, LOL!
Rise and shine, morning glories! 🙂 Looks like we got Monday out of the way with nary a scratch (I hope). What’s on your plate for today?
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
P.S. Update, 9:45 am: I just checked my inbox and found out the MAC Spring Colour Forecasts are now online. There’s eye, lip and cheek products grouped into Pink, Coral, Plum and Amber shades. Methinks the Coral and Pink products are particularly stunning!

February 2nd, 2010 at 8:05 amThanks for the info, Karen! I am totally in love with the Trish McEvoy Demure collection. I’ve never really given her line much of a look, especially since I would have to go to the mall on the opposite side of town. I’ll have to make the effort to check out this collection though!
Hope you have a great Tuesday! We’re staying warm, trying to help my son feel better, and drinking hot chocolate and coffee! Happy Tuesday!
Karen says
February 2nd, 2010 at 8:23 amHi Toni! You know, I’ve never really paid her line much attention, either, until I saw the Little Black Card Palette at Nordies, which I thought was pretty.
You have a great day, too. I hope your son feels better soon! 🙂

February 2nd, 2010 at 8:10 amI tried the Living Proof Shampoo and did not fall in love with it …. might be worth a 2nd try.
That Biscotti perfume is very tempting. 😀
Tuesday is still mostly busy … for some reason we are going insane at work. I hope I survive Tuesday … that will take me one step closer to the weekend!
Karen says
February 2nd, 2010 at 8:25 amI think if I wore that Biscotti splash my tummy would be rumbling all day. 🙂
Have a good day — one of the upsides of it being crazy busy is that it’ll go by fast, right?
Nina says
February 2nd, 2010 at 4:44 pmYep yep it did go by pretty fast! Im home, fed and waiting for the Lost thingy to start!
My worry about the Biscotti scent is that I would be hungry all day (like you said) and I might take a bit out of my own arm!!! Kiddin’!!!!
Catherine says
February 2nd, 2010 at 8:49 amGood morning Karen! Oooh, all the new MJ scents sound amazing – I love Biscotti especially!
Today I got up super early to get to campus with SO. I have a doctor’s appointment in about 15 minutes (so I gotta pack up and head over like NOW lol) but I spent 1/2 of my free morning hour wresting with my internet to get the campus wireless to work. After the appointment I’m headed to the library for a ton of law case reading and bioseparations homework until class from 5-9:30pm. Ugh, right?
On the bright side it’s our 3rd anniversary today. I did a special manicure for it yesterday (sad I have to take it off tomorrow since I have grad school interviews starting Wednesday with dinner). SO unfortunately already has lunch plans but I’m hoping we can at least squeeze in coffee or something.

February 2nd, 2010 at 9:42 amI still have my Marc Jacobs Pear (from 2 yrs ago) and still looks like I haven’t put a dent into it. Apple sounds right up my alley too – ha…so very Asian girl, I know!
Frances says
February 2nd, 2010 at 10:01 amI can’t wait to smell the new Marc Jacob’s splashes! The Ivy one I bought a while back is still one of my favorite scents ever.
Kristin says
February 2nd, 2010 at 10:04 amUn a semi-related note!:
Last week you mentioned the Givenchy Mister Eyebrow pencil, and I have to say, it’s transparent waxiness is really doing it for me.
Keeping my not-so-recently-waxed brows well in check. Definitely recommend you check it out!

Glosslizard says
February 2nd, 2010 at 12:37 pmOooooh, I really have to sniff the biscotti splash! Preferably with some coffee! 😉
Devs says
February 2nd, 2010 at 1:00 pmThe tarte cheek stain is on my wishlist!
Steph B says
February 2nd, 2010 at 2:22 pmI’ve had mixed results with the Living Proof products. Was so happy to see a silicone-free line of no frizz products to help with my soft curls. The curl formula did nothing for me but the straightening formula makes it super easy to straighten my hair. The leave in conditioner works even better than the straightening balm. But, I’m not likely to repurchase because I don’t like the scent and I can feel the stuff in my hair when I run my hands through it.

February 2nd, 2010 at 2:58 pmMy favorite perfume to wear (and my boyfriend’s favorite scent on me) is the MJ Rain splash. I will have to check out the Pomegranate one now . . . I’m not a big fan of the baked goods/sweet scents that are so popular now, but I love fresh clean scents, and I can handle some berry/fruity scents.
Cas says
February 2nd, 2010 at 6:57 pmMmm mmm, the MJ perfumes look really promising! Will definitely check it out soon IF they have it in KL.

February 3rd, 2010 at 2:01 pmHey I wanted to let you know that the Macy’s in Corte Madera has the Love Your Lips display up 🙂 Boy is the lighting in there bad though. Blech. I picked up all four glosses, Chelsea Rose and Coral Kiss.
