Sex And The City Sequel Underway!!


Sex And The City is back with a bang, the new sequel began shooting yesterday in New York & the buzz is only just beginning on what Carrie & her girl's have been up to since May 2008! Due out in May 2010 we'll have 2 years of gossip, conquests & fashion trends to catch up on, also a few past fashion faux pas from the 80's by the looks of it.....!!!
Sarah Jessica Parker was spotted being made up into almost what looks like a Barbara Streisand lookalike contestant to shoot a flash back from her arrival in New York as a young twenty something (proving that we all get better with age!).

Rumours have been been flying that the star has recently had cosmetic surgery to remove her famous mole, so the make-up artists on set were reapplying it for continuity along with her 80's throwback make-up style!
The full ensemble included white skinny jeans, an off the shoulder jumper, converse trainers & to complete the over all look a tight perm that any rock ballad goddess would be envious of!



There were another two costume changes (slightly more up to date this time!), firstly in a white Halston dress with Louboutins (of course!) as well as a Chanel clutch bag, then later on pretty in purple with Christian Louboutin Gino T-strappies.



Keep your eyes peeled more more scene snaps as the famous four get to work in the big apple!!

Madonna's Latest Shoot for W Magazine (Mar 2009)


Here's a sneak preview of Madonna's latest shoot with W Magazine, clearly her new single status agrees with her as she is indeed looking better than ever! The shoot which has a very vintage & sultry feel was shot by photographer Steven Klein in Rio de Janeiro, she is pictured alongside model Jesus Lu in many provocative poses, one where they share a passionate kiss & many others where he photographed naked as Madonna looks on.. Also featuring in the photoshoot is one of Victoria Beckham's creations from her latest dress collection (black dress with white trimmed neckline & sleeves). As Madonna's relationship with model Jesus is hot on the rumour mill since, the whole shoot has caused quite a stir - a lady very much in know of how to gain the maximum publicity...!

Madonna's New Hair Style


Madonna has gone for yet another reinvention with her style & has dropped the wavy hair look opting for a new sleek cut, although many observers apparently feel that she has simply transformed herself into Kate Winslet...! Kate who is the toast of the Golden Globes this year I'm sure would be flattered to hear that the queen of style is taking inspiration from her look, however I feel there is only a slight coincidence to blame! Never the less it's a great new look & a good hair cut is always a great way to move on for any woman after the breakdown of a relationship!

Victoria Beckham's New Bird Poo Facial


Just as you thought celebrity beauty regimes couldn't get any wackier Victoria Beckham's new facial hits the headlines & yes it really does consist of bird droppings, well nightingale droppings (that makes it a bit better doesn't it..!?)
Of course it undergoes a fair amount of treatment before it gets anywhere near your face, it's the enzymes contained within the poo that provides all it's miracle working properties! 'Guanine' is an illuminating amino acid & has apparently been used by the Japanese for centuries to keep the skin youthful in appearance. This is extracted from the lovely bird droppings then dried out & mixed up with other ingredients such as green tea, gold leaf & shea butter, then treated with UV light in order to create a potion the likes of Victoria Beckham would allow on her face! It is said to leave your skin glowing & instantly refreshed, it comes at a price though, £135 for a 90Min Session!

Red Lipstick - The Hottest Look in Town!


Red is the colour on every body's lips right now & it's the hottest shade to be seen in this coming season! All the celebs are showing off their rouge pouts while on the red carpet or out on the town including Gwen Stefani who was snapped dining out in LA last night wearing a vibrant red lipstick - a perfect example of how it can give a glamorous edge to a very simple look.
Here are a few tips on wearing your red lippy to perfection -
First of all choose your colour wisely, there are a few types of red, the main ones being 'blue-toned' (vibrant crimson colours) & then 'warm-toned' (with a hint of orange or brown), pale skins should always opt for blue-tones & dark to olive skins should go for a warmer palate.
When going for this look opt for a subtle make-up, bright red lips & dark smokey eyes are usually a bit too much, go for a light matt foundation & use a light eyeshadow either a flesh-tone or a light beige. Lightly line the eyes & define the lashes with some volumising mascara to make them stand out, it will create definition but keeps it simple. Go for a light blusher to define your cheek bones, just a light beige-pink or subtle bronzer.
Make sure you prepare the lips before you apply the red, they need to be in good condition (dry cracked red isn't a good look!), use a lip balm to soften them first, after this apply a little foundation with your finger tips as this will provide a base for the colour to sit on & will create a longer finish as well as a matt appearance.
Take a lip liner but go for one the same colour as your lips rather than a red, it only needs to be a guide for your lip brush & this makes it easier if you want to fill out your lips as well.
Apply the lip stick with a lip brush along the lip line & then fill in, blot & go over them again then blot, do this a few times until the colour is as intense as you would like it to be.
Take your time over this, it's not a job to be done in a hurry (!!), practise makes perfect so try out your new look before a big night out & wear it in the house to get used to it if you don't normally go for such vibrant colours - get it right though & it's the perfect accessory to any little black dress!
Two of the best red lipsticks to look out for are Chanel's cult classic 'Red No5' & Mac's award winning 'Ruby Woo' Russian Red Lipstick which was created for Madonna.

Hair Salons At The Ready - Victoria Beckhams New Hair Cut (The Crob)!!


Victoria Beckham obviously felt it was time to put her classic 'Pob' behind her & freshen up her style for the new autumn season, she was spotted at the Marc Jacobs show sporting a rather short cropped new style! Gone are the blonde highlights as she shows off her natural dark hair colour, over all the new style is quite a bold hair statement & in my opinion it takes a lot of confidence to pull off, which I think she does very well... The 'Pob' was one of the most requested hairstyles in salons over the last 18 Months, so I wonder if this one will be as popular, also the new cropped style will need a new name of course, the 'Crob' - doesn't really have the same ring to it does it....??!!!

Beauty Classic - Johnson's Baby Lotion


Johnson's baby lotion has truly stood the test of time as a beauty classic & has been passed down from generation to generation over the last 100 years. On this basis Johnson's Baby have decided to re-launched the Original Baby Lotion, The Scent of Softeness which is associated with Johnson's baby products gives a pure clean scent that is said to be the perfect antidote to fast pace modern living, giving you a relaxed & calm feel - reminding you of simpler times as a child!!! Of course another important factor in why so many women choose baby lotion is for the baby softeness of course (!!), it gently hydrates the skin leaving it smooth & fresh, it's also quickly absorbed with no greasy residue so is quick & easy to use. As if that wasn't enough you can also use it as a mild cleanser, excellent for removing make-up & generally cleansing the skin, leaving it baby soft!
I have been putting it to the test over the last few days, my skin feels & smells fantastic, it's true that the smell is calming & I also found that it does indeed work very well as a cleanser & removed all traces of my eye make-up without any stinging, so perfect as a cleanser & all over face & body moituriser in one, so no need for any other beauty products really!!!!
Baby Lotion is also a celeb favourite with Beyonce, Jennifer Aniston, Gywneth Paltrow & Erin O'Connor all huge fans of the baby soft benefits! So all the perfect reasons to go out a treat yourself to an all time classic beauty product!

Anti-Ageing Superfood - Natto


The lastest Anti-Ageing craze to sweep LA is Formented Soya Beans 'Natto' from Japan, experts say that eating a few small portions a day can have a huge inpact on the condition of your skin, not forgetting the health benefits as well as it can help prevent heart attacks & strokes. It clears the complexion to give a youthful glow to the skin thanks to it's unique vitamin & mineral compounds that cannot be found in any other food or supplement.
Victoria Beckham has become the latest fan of this new superfood & friends say this is what is behind her new healthier figure & glowing complexion, she has recently she been happy to pose for pictures with barely scratch of make-up on as her confidence has grown so much thanks to her new diet (or maybe it's just all that LA sun!?)

Keira Knightly & Sienna Miller at the Edinburgh Film Festival


With the launch of the Edinburgh Film Festival Keira Knightly & Sienna Miller took to the red carpet for the premiere of their new movie "The Edge of Love'. Both looked stunning as usual & Keira sported a very dramatic smokey eye effect which gave a striking finish to her over all look.

Here's some top tips on how to achieve a sultry smokey eye worthy of any red carpet! -

First of all ensure you have cotton buds at hand as these are your top tool for finishing off this look!

1 - Use a matte eye shadow & opt for a dark brown & black such as Mac Shadow in Brun & Carbon -
2 - First of all apply a primer base to the eye to hold the shadow as it will be a heavy application.
3 - Gradually build the colour, add the dark brown first & blend over the lid & into the socket line.
4 - With a blending brush blend outwards at the outer corners to soften the edges & bring it outwards for a dramatic finish (use circular motions for this)
5 - With your black shadow blend it into the outer corners of the eyes & again blend outwards.
6 - With a pencil brush use the dark brown & take it under the lower lash line to create a heavy finish then do the same with the black.
7 - With your cotton buds blend all round the eye ensuring the edges are soft & blended.
8 - Finally take a black kohl eye pencil & line the top lash line & into the inner lower lash lines & the inner corners so the whole eye is defined, this will create a dramatic finish to the look.

One other tip - as using these colours can be a bit messy, best to either place some loose powder under the eye to catch any excess shadow or do the eyes first, then your foundation!

Birthday Girl - Kylie's Beauty Secrets!


As Kylie turns 40 today I think we can all agree that our favourite Pop Princess looks glowing and youthful whatever the weather, her make-up artist Karen Alder reveals that Kylie loves organic products for her skin as well as swearing by Rimmel Eyeliner for a dramatic finish to her glamorous looks, here are some of her favourite products she won't be caught without!

Philosophy Microdelivery Peel Kit (£57 - John Lewis), Kylies favourite, this wonder peel is like a mini-facial to give you an instant, radiant & youthful glow!
Neal's Yard Organic Rose and Almond Night Cream (£16 John Lewis), this cream keeps the complexion soft & creates a peachy healthy glow to the skin..
Rimmel Eyeliner Pencil - Black £2.99), great for creating intense smokey eyes for a sexy dramatic look.
Alpha-H Triple-Action Cleanser Duo (£26.75), a powerful, cleanser that removes make-up and daily grime in one easy go!
Nails Inc 5 Piece Neon Brights Collection (£20), great for adding a splash of bright colour to finish off any look, neon nails are very hot this season so as usual Kylie is right on trend!
Liz Earle Body Wash & Energising Gel Kit (£30), a natural invigorating body wash that leaves your skin fresh & energised.

Kylie is also a huge fan of Mac (obviously!!) & it was Mac that supplied the Make-Up for Kylie's Home Coming Tour last year, Senior Mac Make-Up Artist James Molloy spills the beans on how to copy Kylie's trademark smokey eyes! -

'This smoky-eye Kylie look is created using a mix of deep blackened violet and burgundy glitter shadows,' he says.
'Start by blanking out the tone of the eyelid using a medium coverage concealer, before working a matte deep charcoal plum shadow through the crease to create depth.
'To add dimension to the eye, smudge a soft kohl pencil in black in to the lash line, the inner rim of the eye and upwards on to the lid, before pressing a dark shadow with sparkle over the kohl.
Having the pencil underneath the shadow will make the glitter really stand out.
'Adding false lashes to the eye really adds that glam factor. For this look choose a set of lashes that aren't too thick as longer more separated lashes will add a softer edge to a really smoky look.
"Leave the rest of your makeup soft so the attention is all on the eyes. Nude lips are more peachy for this look so choose a butterscotch colour which won't look washed out.'
James recommends: Beauty Marked shadow, '10, Prunella pencil '11, Underplay lipstick '11, Shadowy Lady shadow '10, Smut shadow '10, Number 4 lashes '7.
All from Mac at Selfridges, Harvey Nicks or House of Fraser.

Also get into the spirit of Kylie with her latest fragrance Showtime (from £21), it is a sweet, voluptuous, fruity-oriental scent with cranberry, strawberry and blackcurrant as well as creamy toffee & exotic wood....sounds delicious!

Gwyneth Paltrow has spent the last few weeks showing off her fabulous toned body in six inch heels whilst promoting her new film, she has been going through a fashion & image update of late, leaving behind her previous grey drab wardrobe & re-emerging as a glamour goddess!
Her make-up look here is fantastic & completes the new glamorous sexy image, the eye make-up is the most striking element to the make-up & is easily achieved - here's how!!!

1 - Take a Dark Brown or Charcoal Grey & apply across the full lid of your eye (just to the point above the socket line) & blend to soften the colour.
2 - With a cotton bud take the colour into the outer corners of your socket line to create more depth & with a fluff brush in circular movements blend outwards.
3 - To line your eyes, take a soft kohl pencil & as close to the lash line as possible define the top lash line & then the bottom, once you have done this go back in with the pencil & line around the entire eye, right into the inner corner & the inner rim of the bottom lash line. To complete this, soften with a cotton bud on the top & bottom to create a smokey finish.
4 - Finish off with lashings of your favourite Mascara!!!

Also while of the subject of recent celebrity pics, Halle Berry has been out & about this week showing off her post baby figure, proudly making the most of her curves! A very yummy mummy!!!!

Madonna's Elle Shoot.

Behind The Scenes At the Elle Shoot

Madonna's latest cover for Elle Magazine has caused quite a stir, how does a woman of 50 manage to look this good (!?)....and of course the answer on everbody's lips is - botox, collagen & a face lift!! Although nothing is confirmed of course & why should it be, it really is nobody's business, plus is it not a woman's perogative to do whatever necessary to fight the ageing battle?! In Madonna's case it truly is a lot of self discipline, intense exercise regimes & an impeccably healthy diet (although she does admit to having a slight obsession with creme eggs!). As she says in her owns words 'there are no short cuts' to being Madonna, it's self discipline & hard work all the way, also why should a woman be defined by her age anyway & as the lady says herself - 'I'm not going to slow down & get off this ride, stay at home & get fat. No way!' At the end of the day no amount of surgery, no matter how discreet, is going to give anybody the amount of energy & sparkle Madonna has & I think we all have to agree she certainly is looking better than ever!
Checkout the slideshow from the Elle shoot below, also turn up your volume for both!

Madonna - Get The Look!


At 50 (well nearly!) Madonna is indeed still looking as fabulous as ever, pictured here in Berlin at her recent movie screening, she sports a very chic make-up look with a vintage edge. Over the last few years she has opted for a heavy liquid liner application on her top lash line, it's now become somewhat of a trademark & she is rarely seen on the red carpet without it.

Get the look!

Madonna has very distinctive almond shaped eyes which look great with heavy liner but the fantastic thing about the over all look is that you can fake it by elongating the eye at the edges with the liner.

1 - First start with a light but matt foundation & powder, try Chanel's Mat Lumiere Foundation.
2 - To begin defining the eyes take a base colour in a nude shade & build into the socket line with a deep brown for definition, apply the base colour over the lid & with a soft blending brush apply the brown with circular movements into the socket line (for best results, tilt your head up & look down slightly to apply shadow to the socket line), Try Dior's Duo Shadow '785 - Dior Ever' with a Nude Shade & Taupe Brown.
3 - The Top Lash Line is the most striking part of this look, applying this can be tricky but with a few tips it can easily be achieved. Use a Gel Liner which is easier to apply, Mac's Fluid Line in 'Black Track' is the best as it gives a matt finish. Begin with a shadow to draw a 'guide line', the shadow is better to use at first & can be corrected easier as it creates a softer line. Using a slanted defining brush use a black shadow & as close the the lashes as possible take the line from the inner corner to the outer, build heavily at the outer corner, just past the middle point of your eye, this will give more depth & shape to your eye, then trace a light line at the outside corner & flick outwards. Once you are happy with the shadow definition take a liquid liner brush & use the fluid line to go over the guide line, try to steady your hand by resting your elbow on a table, take this in stages & build over the shadow from the inner to the outer corner, the two should work together to give a defined & even finish where slight flaws in the line aren't noticeable.
4 - For the bottom Lash Line use the same brown as used for the socket line & take a light smokey line right the way along, blend softly with a cotton bud.
5 - Use a volume mascara to really define your lashes for, try Rimmel's 'Glam Eyes'.
6 - For the cheeks, use a light contouring shadow effect, taking your blusher brush sweep the colour across the apples (soft fleshy part of the cheek when you smile) & then blend under & up to give a defined finish, for this look try Bobbi Brown's blusher in 'Blushed', soft warm beige/pink with a slight shimmer.
7 - Keep the lips a neutral colour as the eyes do all the talking (!!), go for L'Oreal's Colour Riche Lipstick in 'Heather Shimmer'.

Sex And The City Official Trailer - Glamour Central!!!

Now I know Sex and the City isn't exactly beauty related, well it is really, you can't get more style inspiration or make-up perfection than when watching Carrie & her girls strut their stuff down 5th Avenue, or when they're putting the worlds' love life to right whilst holding a Martini!!

All That Glitters is Sparkling Eye Candy for 2008!


For 2008 all that gitters is great for evening-wear make-up, one way to get this look for your eyes is with Barry M, a celebrity favourite with the likes of Christina Aguilera, Sophie Ellis Bextor, Kimberly Stewart & Jamelia all devoteess of the product!
There is a great range of colours & you can get that ultimate dazzle effect with their 'Fine Glitter Dust' (£4.50), it has diamond glitter flecks that will really catch the light & will shimmer to the max!
The best way to apply this powder is to use a base first, usually a cream, one that I always go for is 'Shell Base' from Mac, it really holds the pigments in the shadow so you get the full effect of the colour. Once this applied take one of your smaller brushes & apply as much as you like to get the desired effect, start across the lid & into the socket line, for a soft glittering effect use a 'fluff' style brush then blend softly & upwards across the lid (this works best with the lighter shimmers).

For an even more striking glitter effect go for their new Glitter Eye Candy Kit (£12), it has glitter with fixing gel as well as glitter eyeliner, normally it is best to apply a little eyeshadow in your chosen colour first to get a bit more depth.

Kate Moss Turns 34 in Style!


Super Model Kate Moss celebrated her 34th Birthday in style yesterday at the Dorchester in London, starting at 2.30 in the afternoon it was set to be a 34 hour party marathon to commemorate each year of her life so far, so she'll be partying well into today as well!
As always Kate set the style for the evening & took a rather bold version of this season's 'glitz & glam' evening look with gold face painting over one eye...seemed some of her friends took the idea on too, such as Kelly Osbourne..
Watch this space, Kate always is the first to spot a new trend & all be it a wacky look she has managed to give it a wearable glamorous edge, I won't be surprised if we see more of this in 2008.
More on this coming next.....
