In The Nude…Lips That Is Fab Sugar  (read full article)

With all the dazzle and dressing up during the holidays it’s best to leave some things minimal, or rather, nude. This trend has been gracing the pouts of Hollywood, as seen in this weekend’s Life & Style, as well as the Spring ‘07 runways, as beauty marked by CocoChic. This look is especially necessary when glamming up your eye makeup - to create balance and maintain a complete, not overtly made up, face.

Beauty Buzz. A Marriage Made In Infomercial Heaven? Sephora Debuts on HSN Second City Style (read full article)

In case you just can’t get to a location at a mall near you, JC Penny’s or your computer to place an order…Sephora’s drive to take over the beauty world is moving to TV with the debut today of a series of one-hour shows on Home Shopping Network! Oh no! 

I don’t have a local Sephora (sigh), but I do make use of the interweb to do my ca-chinging. My recent Seattle round let me explore the aisles and find those little treasures that just get lost on the website. A lot of my gals are getting this little find, the Round-A-Pout.

I picked up a tube of Sephora brand Gold & Glow gloss because it’s great to wear solo or over lipstick to take a shade from day into nite. When I noticed it was part of the Round-A-Pout Beach Bronze I had to grab a bunch. The little round bauble contains four glosses to transform your pout from fizzle to sizzle, best of all they’re all under $10.

If you’re looking for safer, pinker tones then nab the Beach Ball. Yah, I had to grab a bunch of them too. Another value set is this Harmony Set.

And one last find. I’ve got more Rosebud Salve then I know what to do with, but still had to pick up their latest addition: Minted Rose Lip Balm
