The Golden Glow

Giorgio Aarmani Summer Foundation

Do you have dry skin, need a little color and don’t want to use a bronzing powder? Then you might want to give this Giorgio Armani Summer Foundation a try.

The thing is, it’s not really a foundation. It’s very light and creamy – like their Face Fabric foundation, only this has a little more bronze tone to it. So you can get that summer glow without the sparkles that some powder bronzers offer. It keeps your face looking moisturized, and not dried up by powder.

Just a nice healthy summer glow.

It’s Officially Here!

Sex and the City

We’ve all been patiently waiting and waiting, four long years. We’ve seen the clips, drooled over the shoes, speculated about Carrie and Big and now we no longer have to wait.

A toast with a Cosmo to womanhood, friendships and love, in whatever form or fashion that works for you.

Enjoy!

Bobbi Brown Bronzed Pink Collection

Bobbi Brown Bronzed Pink Collection

Bobbi Brown has done it again with her new summer collection called Bronzed Pink.

There are two new colors for eye shadow: Bronzed Pink and Penny.

Lip Tint has 3 new colors: Bronzed Pink, Desert Bronze and Golden Pink.

The bronzer is available in: Light, Medium, Natural, Dark and Deep. These are matte bronzers and are not new, but I hear there is a delay in the new bronzers. They are cotton based, and have a very slight shimmer to them. I think I’ll keep my fingers crossed that they won’t be delayed too much longer. I can’t wait to see them!

Cate Blanchett’s Skincare

Cate Blanchett

My husband and I went to the new Indiana Jones movie this past weekend and the most thrilling part of the movie for me was to see Cate Blanchett up close. She has THE MOST BEAUTIFUL, FLAWLESS SKIN EVER! Seeing her face up close on the “monster screen” alone was worth the $5.75 matinee. She’s always beautiful and seems to glow from within, on top of being an incredible actor. But I am not loving the “Suri” wig shown above and in the movie.

Cate’s skincare is by SK-II and says she has been a loyal user for many years. In fact, they even named a collection after her called Cate’s Essentials Collection, which are three products in the line she uses regularly. They are Facial Treatment Essence, Facial Treatment Repair C and Facial Treatment Masks. These products have the highest concentration of SK-II’s signature ingredient, which is Pitera.

Currently, the Japanese line is available only at Saks in the US. If it truly is the reason her skin looks so incredible, I’m tempted to go buy the whole line!
