Video Style Steal – Britney Spears ‘ Hold It Against Me’

imageShe’s baaack! It’s the Pop Princess, miss Britney Spears herself and she’s returned with a high-energy electro-pop single that has as much going on in the video as it does with it’s crazy dance floor beat.


Despite the obvious product placement (thank you Makeup Forever and Sony for endorsments!), Spears makes it a chaotically fun video full of lights and color, a Britney vs. Britney fight and numerous costume changes.


Corset tops with short shorts and skirts, 80’s inspired jackets and shoulder pads, crazy cool necklaces , platform heels and some seriously killer eye makeup make this video a style must see, even if you’re not a Britney fan (hey, we’re just glad she’s singing again and has her hair back!)! Check out the video and then click on the slideshow to get the Britney Spears ‘Hold It Against Me’ look!

Beauty Pick Me Up – Backstage at Altuzarra

imageAt this past Fashion Week, our favorite Contributing Editor, Geri Hirsch of Because I’m Addicted, had the good luck to go backstage at Altuzarra and snap some first-hand beauty pics! We love the trends we saw and can’t wait to try them out!


Here’s our three favorite style! Then click on the slideshow to see our fave products that will help you get the look!



Wine Red Lips – Not quite as bright and show-y as cherry red, but still impactful and full of sex appeal! Try a creamy burgundy or a sweep of matte merlot. Or if the opaque wine color is too deep for you, look for a lip stain that allows you to build just the right coverage that you desire!



Slicked Back Bun – Side-part, mid-part … what look is most flattering for your face shape? A look that’s flattering for all? No part! Buns, whether high or low, are the new hair trend, and nothing makes it look more elegant or put together than a slicked back look!



Smudged Cat-Eye Liner – While we won’t being trying out as emphasized a tail on our liner as we saw at Altuzarra backstage, the cat-eye look is a classic style that is sensual and dramatic without being over the top! It helps elongate the eye and the new take on the cat-eye liner is to give it a few light smudges to soften the look. Perfect for day and with a slightly darker and thicker line, it’s a hot look for night too!

Tweezermate 10x Lighted Mirror

Tweezerman’s souped-up magnifying mirror sheds new light on grooming

tweezemirror1.jpg

For the obsessively vain, the original
Tweezermate
magnified mirror reveals every pore, blemish and hair, coming in handy for putting in contact lenses and all sorts of other detail work. Now, the compact little wonder is even more useful for all your tweezing, make-up or other fussy grooming needs with the addition of a surprisingly powerful light. A built-in, battery-powered LED shines onto the face, guaranteeing better accuracy for a precise pluck or a quick touch-up.

While the black plastic housing might mean you want to hide the device away, suction cups make it easy to stick onto most smooth surfaces, like the inside of a bathroom cabinet (where I put mine). The design also makes it a boon for travel, as well as for tight spaces where there’s no room for a stand-alone mirror.

The mirror sells online from Tweezerman or Sephora for $15.


Beauty Pick Me Up – Shiny, Healthy Hair!

imageNo matter what the hair trend is at the moment, shiny, healthy hair will always be in! It doesn’t matter if you’ve got a a shaggy pixie cut or a mane of long tresses, hair that shines is the perfect accessory to any ensemble.


In an effort to get the perfect coif, we often apply many products, chemicals and heat treatments to our hair, which weakens and dulls the cuticles. Take a break from the hair sprays, molding waxes, straighteners, hair dyes and blow dryers and take a look at our 5 easy tips on how to give your hair that healthy shine and bounce back! Click the slideshow to see some fave products!



Switch Up The Shampoo – You may already have the best salon-level shampoo and conditioner for your hair, but that’s not enough! By switching up your shampoo and conditioner, you don’t let your hair get accustomed to the same pH balance for too long, which can leave hair flat and dull. Every third hair wash, switch it up with another label!



Argan Oil – This Moroccan oil is the new not-so-secret secret to shiny and healthy hair! Towel dry hair and rub a pea sized amount in between hands and smooth through hair. Got longer locks? Try a dime sized amount! This amazing oil leaves hair smooth and shining and conditions naturally! Argan has multiple uses as a skin conditioner as well and ingesting it allows for the full benefits of it’s vitamins, minerals and anti-oxidant properties!



Deep Conditioning Treatment – Using a deep conditioning treatment in place of your regular conditioner once a week really adds shine! Hair masks and deep conditioners are meant to be left in for longer and penetrate to nourish dry locks.



Heat Protection Serum – While giving your a hair a break from heat treatments is a good idea, some of us just can’t step out of the house without a good blow out or straightening. To minimize damage and add a protective layer from the damaging heat, spray on a heat protective serum or spray first!



Change Your Diet – While there are many products out there that can make hair sleeker and shinier, there’s nothing that beats eating the right foods to help nourish hair from the inside out! Drinking lot of water is a must and other foods like salmon, nuts, seaweed and leafy greens make hair, skin and the body healthier overall!

Beauty Pick Me Up – The Juice Trend!

imageWe can spend all the money we want on top-of-the-line cosmetics and take hours to make sure that our skin appears flawless and smooth. And while there are some truly amazing products out there, there’s nothing better than perfect skin that comes naturally.


So before you apply that new primer or brush on that flawless finish foundation, try chugging a glass of fresh juice first! We’re not talking about the pre-bottled concoctions full of corn syrup, either. Pressed juicery and juicing at home are making a comback and with all the vitamins and minerals in fresh juices, you’ll see almost instant results!


And besides gaining smoother, brighter skin and more energy, you’ll be losing that stubborn last five pounds left over from your New Years’ resolution!

What Your Eyebrow Shape Says About You!

imageWhile it’s often said that brows frame the face, the shape of your eyebrows can also communicate personality characteristics that other people perceive, says an expert.


‘Brows say so much about who you are without even uttering a word,’ says DeeDee Marcelli, celebrity makeup artist to the Chella Skin Care brand.


With this in mind, Marcelli created brow stencils in the four shapes that women most gravitate toward – and as inspired by Old Hollywood glamour icons who vaulted into the public conscience the importance of a neatly groomed brow.


You may find your own shape among this grouping, or perhaps a template that inspires you!



Alluring – ‘This brow draws you in. Beautifully sculpted, well proportioned and perfect in every way. This template reminds me of the Sophia Loren look – a bit exotic and a bit mysterious,’ says Marcelli. The fullness of this brow would be nicely balanced by an equally sexy nude or soft pink lipcolor.



Sassy – ‘To me, this brow shape is reminiscent of Jane Russell; a brow that is thicker in front with a short tail and says, Look at me, I’m unique, not shy, a little edgy and a little outrageous!’ says Marcelli. Sassy brows add a lot of personality to the face, and can be a great complement to bangs.
