How To Get Kate Middleton's Royal Wedding Hairstyle
Britney Williams, stylist at Bumble and bumble Downtown Salon in New York City offered her take on Kate Middleton's wedding hairstyle and provides tips on how to achieve it yourself.
“Kate’s down ‘do looked gorgeous – elegant enough for her big day but true to her personal style. I’ve rarely seen her wear her hair up, so it seems only appropriate that her wedding hairstyle be a dressed-up, perfect version of her everyday self.

Kate Middleton Marries Prince William In A Sarah Burton For Alexander McQueen Dress
Kate Middleton's wedding dress is by Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen. Ladies, I couldn't do the 4am thing, but guess who donned a hat and watched at 8am drinking tea and having a biscuit?
I thought she looked beautiful in the stunning gown which features a long veil, with lace covering Kate's bare arms and shoulders. Isn't there a slight nod to Grace Kelly? I think she NAILED it with this dress.

Prince William looked dapper after an evening of greeting guests, leaning into them warmly, very much in the manner of Diana. That man is his mother's daughter. And Prince Harry. Let's just say I love me some spicy ginger.
Did you wake up to watch the wedding? Tell me EVERYTHING. Go.

New Fresh Sugar Honey Lip Treatment SPF 15
I can't believe I forgot to tell you guys about my latest lip love affair with Fresh Sugar Honey Tinted Lip Treatment SPF 15. These Sugar lip balms are my EVERYTHING. I first spotted the new honey iteration when a magazine editor pulled it out across a crowded room at an event months ago and I straight ACCOSTED her to find out what it was all about because I recognized the light brown packaging as notably NOT Plum, nor Rose nor the standard lip treatment. Sugar Honey is already available at Sephora.com and retails for a slightly pricey $22.50, but hydrates like a dream and leaves a hint of warm caramel color on my lips. DIVINE. I want three.Consider it your new obfreshion. Buy a Fresh Sugar Honey Tinted Lip Treatment SPF 15 at Sephora.com.

Get The Look: Lauren Conrad At 'US Weekly''s Hot In Hollywood Party
Lauren Conrad looked classically elegant in a top knot and fierce makeup applied by Amy Nadine. Here, the deets straight from Amy on how to get the look.
As a Style honoree at last night’s US Weekly Hot in Hollywood Party, Lauren wanted to showcase an outfit from her very own upcoming Paper Crown holiday collection. Given that and her perfectly-coiffed top knot, we knew it was the just the occasion to rock a red lip. Here’s exactly what I did using CoverGirl:
Fictionary: Un-Rose Nyland Scents
Fictionary is a column showcasing beauty-related words that don't exist, but should.
The new Prada Infusion de Rose Fragrance not only will instantly up your vanity ante with its delightful packaging, it also smells breathtakingly beautiful in that sophisticated way a rose scent does. This is a rose scent that will not be relegated solely to the octogenarian set--it's a decidedly Un-Rose Nyland Scent. The Golden Girls' Rose boasted a youthful vibe, but a distinctly "active senior" lifestyle on the show. But there's certainly no mah-jong by the pool in Boca or plastic rain hats for the wears of this light floral fragrance. The rose is tempered by crisp citrus, cutting the intensity of two different roses indigenous to Turkey and Bulgaria, respectively for a distinctly younger feel. For more info on the notes, read on...
Earth Friendly Beauty: The Latest From EcoTools
Tuesday, April 26, 2011
Girls, I know I'm so late to the Earth Day party (well, at least I caught the Earth Month celebration) but crazypants deadlines kept me from sharing with you my latest natural obsesh, EcoTools' latest gems. The brand recently launched a new website at ecotools.com where you can find out about their newest items and how you can help the planet by purchasing them. One percent of annual revenue goes directly to support various environmental initiatives like EarthShare and Wildlife Alliance. The brand's even partnered with famous vegan, actress Alicia Silverstone, who's designed cosmetic bags like this gorgeous EcoTools By Alicia Silverstone Train Case (big enough even for the most hoarder-ish makeup fiend). The train case is made with natural hemp and cotton, has a recycled PET lining and the hangtag is printed on tree-free stone paper.

DKNY Fragrances Stops Traffic In Times Square: DKNY Original
Saturday, April 23, 2011
It's not easy to step on top of a cab rocking stilettos like those!
DKNY Fragrances literally stopped traffic in Times Square yesterday celebrating the launch of their newest scent, DKNY Original, at Sephora. Campaign models and real life supermodel couple, Anja Rubik and Sasha Knezevic gave tourists the ultimate photo opp when they made out on top of a NYC taxi to reenact the iconic campaign image that launched the original fragrance ten years ago.
Commuters likely moved slowly due to the ruckus. Cause of delay? PDA.

Alterna Bamboo Abundant Volume Collection
Gals, last night I attended a dinner celebrating the launch of Alterna's (my favorite brand--especially the Alterna TEN line, which essentially GUARANTEES good hair days) new volumizing line of prods with celebrity hairstylist Michael Shaun Corby, along with some other bloggers and online editors. The Alterna Uplifting Root Blast left an impression on me, what with its packaging inspired by your trusty laptop dust-blower.

Official Mascara Correspondent: L'Oreal Double Extend Eye Illuminator Mascara Review
Wednesday, April 20, 2011
Official Mascara Correspondent Ashleigh Ciucci reviews L'Oreal Double Extend Eye Illuminator Mascara...
"Eye Brightening" mascaras are a difficult product to tackle, but L'Oreal has hit the mark with this one.The double-ended mascara offers two layers of product that add up to sparkling eyes. The first coat is a soft black mascara that goes on with a soft tapered brush. The effect of this layer is soft fluffy lashes without a ton of definition. However, the magic happens with coat two. With a crazy combination of a spiral and a ball brush, you apply the colored side of the wand.

If you can think of a single reason not to purchase the ASOS Tailored Fit and Flare Dress ($81), please share it because I do not believe you. It's easy on your wallet. It's stretchy, the perfect length, appropriate for everything from a date to dinner at your grandmother's to your (by your I mean my) oppressively corporate office environment I'm thankfully only dipping my toe in these days (one day a week, friends--why is that joint like the mafia? I can't escape!). It comes in a variety of colors; I'm enjoying it as I live and blog in black. Oh, and also? It's seasonless.
In short--get involved.
You're welcome.

Fictionary: Silky Stalkings
Sunday, April 17, 2011
Fictionary is a column showcasing beauty-related words that don't exist, but should.
Tonight, I had my first stalking experience. I know, that's usually reserved for creepy middle-aged men with comb-overs with names like Dennis. Not this time, friends. Not this time. But because grooming is my everything, I was, indeed, taking part in Silky Stalkings. Partially inspired by the '90s TV show of the same name, Silky Stalkings occurs when you stalk someone's whole life on the boardwalk--but you do it with the silky, smooth skin one can only achieve by showering with the new Dove VisibleCare Softening Body Wash. The creamy wash even imparts a soupçon of a subtle, fresh scent. The good news is that I was at my most slender in years for my RPattz close-up thanks to three days of a liquid diet and rest due to a stomach virus I'd had this weekend.Anywho, I, along with my friends Anne, Megan and Dina, were invited by generous movie sponsor Dove to the world premiere of Water For Elephants starring Reese Witherspoon and ROBERT PATTINSON. So you see the situation. As I said to Dina in my RPattz-induced stupor (seriously, I couldn't form a coherent sentence), I announced that tonight was the "Top 1 creepiest moments of my life." The great news? When it comes to RPattz and stalking, you're never the creepiest stalker he's had--not even in the last five minutes. There's always volume of stalkers. The vision (and cacophony) of him moving his way through the crowd outside the Ziegfeld Theater was not unlike when they first tell you about atoms and how many of them cluster together to form matter. (Matter, as you know, has mass and takes up space). For more on Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart at the Water For Elephants premiere, read on...

Make Me Feel Like A Natural Woman: Amala Skin Care
Thursday, April 14, 2011
If you want to meet the most darling and enthusiastic aesthetician on the PLANET, then head to the Mandarin Oriental Spa and indulge in a facial with Fini. The first natural facial (all Amala products are used) to still incorporate extractions I've experienced, this one will leave your skin smooth, glowing and hydrated. There's even some lymphatic drainage involved, which I love. On me, Fini used a mixture of products, mostly those from the Purify line, good for acne-prone skin like mine. It's also a certified natural brand committed to social responsibility in addition to offering products with integrity.
My favorites from the suite of products include the Purifying Gel Cleanser ($30) and Purifying Face Polish ($48). Both are excellent for deep cleaning my pores (I use both on my trusty Clarisonic for majah cleansing) and find my skin is left fresh with nary a speck of makeup, never dry or tight. The Jasmine Hydrating Hand Cream is a regular in my purse. It conditions my mitts beautifully and leaves behind a faint floral scent detectable only to me (though Jasmine is not one of my gal Andrea Lavinthal's so-hailed "private scents."

Sears To Roll Out Beauty Department
WWD reported today that Sears said Monday it plans to reenter the beauty arena with full-on departments in 100 of its busier stores over the next several months. A store-in-store concept began rolling out in March.
According to WWD, the beauty centers stock established drugstore beauty brands such as L’Oréal, Cover Girl, Maybelline, Revlon and Physicians Formula, as well as skin care, fragrance and nail care items. But there are also masstige-type brands such as Ahava, Lumene, Dermalogica, Burt’s Bees and StriVectin, said industry sources. Sears has yet to attract a true prestige beauty brand, but the hire of cosmetics buyer Jerri Koplowitz, formerly of Macy’s, could help the retailer develop relationships with the upscale set.

Reese Witherspoon Expressions Fragrance Review
This post is sponsored by Avon
Avon is launching a new trio of fragrances — the Expressions collection — fronted by actress Reese Witherspoon. Love, Laugh and Live are designed to “capture three different dimensions of Reese Witherspoon’s multi-faceted femininity."
Avon recognizes that woman requires a wardrobe of scents to match her varied moods. Her emotions change from day to day and now her fragrance can, too. Inspired by the many facets of Avon Global Ambassador Reese Witherspoon, the Expressions collection includes three scents. I've matched each perfume up with its corresponding Reese Witherspoon character from her many films I believe embodies the fragrance. Fun, right? Read on for the appropriate "fragreese" match-up for the Love, Laugh and Live scents.

Fictionary is a column showcasing beauty-related words that don't exist, but should.

The book is actually tragic and centers around two lonely children who create a magical forest kingdom in the '70s. But we're here to discuss beauty, (which is patently un-tragic) and I'm going to let you in on the secret to The Bridge To Keratin-ia--i.e., hair that stays smooth, straight (or at least wavy) and kink-free even in the most desperately rainy of Aprils in between your regularly scheduled keratin treatments. Or, if you haven't involved yourself with them, to simply sleekify your mane in LIEU of them. Isn't having smooth hair when yours tends to frizz if you even think about water JUST AS MAGICAL AS AN ENCHANTED FOREST KINGDOM? (I think so).
