Ellis Faas Skin Veil Foundation

There's a lot of fabulous buzz going on about this foundation.

Ellis Faas Skin Veil Foundation

Since the launch of innovative dutch makeup artist Ellis Faas' eponymous collection, her Skin Veil foundation has become a cult favorite.


Ellis Faas believes that foundation should illuminate the skin without feeling or appearing like a mask.
With an exceptional balance of high quality ingredients Skin Veil's rich liquid formula glides on in a thin layer, giving excellent coverage, while blending into the skin.

The Skin Veil minerals diffuse light, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It has moisturizing ingredients that nourish the skin, as well as an SPF 15

Fabulous non?

Marc Jacobs For Lous Vuitton Fall 2011 Collection

How fantastic is this??
Runway shows can start to look so much the same, especially by the time we get to Paris Fashion Week.
It could be argued that its difficult to come with something completely different than the traditional catwalk.
Unless you happen to be Marc Jacobs, that is!
The Fall 2011 Louis Vuitton Show


Backstage after the show Jacobs told journalists of his inspiration “We were thinking about obsession, fetishism, and we thought about an old hotel, with its chambermaids and the affairs that go on there”.

Easy to spot the subtle touches of eroticism in the sheer blouses, chambermaid-esque dresses, thigh high stockings with high sheen boots and sky high heels.
Love it!

Update Your Look For Spring

Spring is finally here, and after a long cold winter there is no time like the present to update your look.

Here are 5 ways to Update Your Look For Spring

Bright eyed and bushy tailed
Its hard to look bright and alert if your eyes are dragging!
Wake up and enliven your under eye area with skynICELAND Hydro Cool Firming Eye Gels.

10 minutes under the eyes and you look bright and alive, depuffed and hydrated. Magic!

While we're on the subject of bright eyes, nothing draws attention to the eyes quite like a luscious fan of gorgeous lashes!
Paint wonder product LATISSE along your lashline nightly, and watch those lashes grow!!

Round out your eye with a beautifully groomed yet understated eyebrow.
The pale brows seen on the spring/summer 2011 runways are way too pale for most of us, but a constructed,

defined and well shaped brow will open the eye, and create an alluring dimension to the face.

Go all out on your lips!
If you are scaling back your eye makeup, spring 2011 is all about a gorgeous, bold, exciting lip. Look for a bright, fire engine red, or my favorite, a hot fuchsia.

The blue undertones found in MAC Something New and Cover Girl Spellbound make teeth look super white, and skin look bright and exciting.

Do away with boring old french manicures, and add a little vibrancy to your finger tips! Go for a bold pink, like OPI Too Hot Pink To Hold 'Em

or a coral jelly pink like OPI Guy Meets Gal-veston from their Texas Collection

Delicious Moments In Furs And Feathers

One of my favorite things is the Blogshelf app for ipad.
All my favorites are lined up there, and the list is long, but beyond fabulous!

One of my blog loves taking up prime real estate on my Blogshelf is Frozen Fingertips, a gorgeous study in images that I can scroll through forever.
I wish I could claim finding these next images myself, but they are in fact part of the Frozen Fingertips tumblr.

I think they are delicious moments in (hopefully but not likely faux) furs and feathers.
Enjoy!

Have you ever seen anything more lovely???

 I would love this!

Megan Fox For Armani Code

Megan Fox's new Armani Code campaign is sexy, sultry and smokin hot!!

Megan Fox has been the face of Armani since 2009, and is the face of their denim and lingerie lines. Now she represents their fragrance "Code" as well.

There's even a cool little commercial. I love the way he says "Room service!!"
