  • D&G My Collection

    D&G My Collection

    D&G’s good looking fragrance anthology also comes in this mini-set – all five glass bottled scents within a D&G branded white pouch. I can’t quite believe that this only costs £35 or as a GWP with purchase of a full-size Anthology fragrance – also £35. My favourite is the intensely floral La Roue de La…

  • What Lady Gaga Smells Like…

    What Lady Gaga Smells Like…

    ..Dragon’s blood resin, blonde patchouli, jasmine and vanilla…seriously. She’s apparantly fallen for Boadicea The Victorious ‘Passionate’ and also ‘Provocative’. Beautiful, Dirty, Rich sums them all up nicely I think.

  • We’ve Got A Ticket To Ride,Too

    I had an inkling that this was about to happen a while ago, but last week was manic with lots of PR meets and launches, and the message that is coming over loud and clear right now is that magazines are irked by the beauty blogs. In fact, it seems several PRs looking after high…

  • Shiseido Spring/Summer 2010

    Shiseido Spring/Summer 2010

    Loving this image of the whole darn lot of Shiseido’s Spring/Summer 2010 make up range. Stand outs are the Perfect Rouge Glowing Matte Lipsticks (£19 each) that ‘fill’ in lip lines with spheres of Smoothing Matte Powder and a water friendly oil that gives lips a soft look and feel.

  • Rococo Nail Apparel Limited Edition Colours

    Rococo Nail Apparel Limited Edition Colours

    Launching into SpaceNK this week are these beauties from Rococo Nail Apparel. The collection is named The New Romantics. Shown on the pic from left to right are: Runway, Black Perle, China Doll, Jaded and Stone Cold Karma. I’m feeling for Stone Cold Karma and Runway myself; you?

  • Vivienne Westwood: Ladies, Will You Wear The New Moustache?

    Vivienne Westwood: Ladies, Will You Wear The New Moustache?

    Vivienne Westwood’s Paris show for A/W2010/11 included models with drawn-on moustaches. Along with no eyebrows, pipecleaners cut up and stuck on as eyebrows, clown mouths and cadaverous no-make up make up, I’d say it’s dangerous times to be a model. And just before we all start kohl-ing rakish lines over our upper lips, like all…

  • TokyoMilk: Toooo Pretty!

    TokyoMilk: Toooo Pretty!

    TokyoMilk Lip Balm in Opera Mint TokyoMilk Your Kiss Is On My Lips Kissing KitTokyoMilk Solid Fragrance in Lotus Sake I found these gorgeous TokyoMilk beauty bits out shopping today – the solid fragrances come in vintage inspired, decorative boxes and inside snuggling next to the pot of scent are five tiny (fairy sized) cards,…

  • Something For The Weekend: Little Red Dress

    Something For The Weekend: Little Red Dress

    When Dior’s summer make up collection hits the stores on 19th May, my prediction for best selling colour is Little Red Dress, seen above. It’s part of the Dior Addict Ultra-Gloss range. It’s non sticky (I tried it) and full of shine complex to give it va-va-voom glossiness. Split into three parts based on Dior…

  • Bobbi Brown Orchid Colour Strip

    Bobbi Brown Orchid Colour Strip

    BB Limited Edition Colour Strips have all the usual wearability of her signature muted tones, but each Strip contains one bright to liven things up. My money’s on Orchid with a splash of bright violet being the favourite. A usual, just when I thought I’d found my favourite ever BB palette (Cabana Corals), along comes…

  • Elizabeth Arden Limited Edition Red Door Scented Candle

    Elizabeth Arden Limited Edition Red Door Scented Candle

    Out in May from John Lewis, here’s www.stylejunkee.com‘s excellent snap of the limited edition Elizabeth Arden goodies including the porcelein held candle depicting stylish New York ladies outside the EA building in New York. I spy a collectable!

  • Michael Kors Hollywood Gold vs Revlon Grey Suede

    Michael Kors Hollywood Gold vs Revlon Grey Suede

    I posted an image of Revlon Grey Suede the other day, but in fact the colour has come out looking much whiter than it actually is. In order to give you a more accurate idea of shade, I’ve painted one hand in Grey Suede and the other in MK Hollywood Gold. At a glance, it…

  • Elizabeth Arden Limited Edition Red Door Lipstick For Look Good, Feel Better

    Elizabeth Arden Limited Edition Red Door Lipstick For Look Good, Feel Better

    Oh, a lush limited edition always puts a smile on my face! This lipstick from Elizabeth Arden is a bright, bright red and sold in aid of the charity Look Good, Feel Better that helps raise self esteem in women with cancer. Not sure when it is out here, and there is a beautiful scented…

  • Jun Takahashi & Comme des Garcons

    Jun Takahashi & Comme des Garcons

    I’m a little bit taken with the concept Jun Takahashi’s fragrances for Commes des Garcons – mostly Holygrapie (there are two: the other is Holygrace) because it is said to smell of ‘babies, kindness and sensuality’. How nice. On pre-order at Colette.fr

  • KissMyFace Cold & Flu For Bath & Shower

    KissMyFace Cold & Flu For Bath & Shower

    Well, I wish I’d discovered this way back when it was January and I was shivering my limbs off….I can’t find a UK stockist for KissMyFace but it’s a mystery to me why it isn’t readily available in the UK. Luckily, the site I found it on, www.rickysnyc.com will ship. I’d say this is one…

  • And The Girls Wore Greige

    And The Girls Wore Greige

    Love this selection from Jessica used on the models at the William Tempest show during LFW. Seen here are Creamy Caramel, Sweet Tooth and Guilty Pleasures, and those of you who can bear the wait might want to add to the pretty-putty arsenal in June when Revlon’s Grey Suede launches (not really at all grey).…
