A few nights ago, I was invited to the opening of a new NYC flagship store for ultra cool cosmetic company NARS. The new store is located at 413 Bleecker Street. It’s a great area for a shop to be placed in Manhattan as its on the same street as Marc Jacobs and Sex & the City famed cupcake emporium – Magnolia Bakery. Some of NARS iconic products are Orgasm Blusher (a coral infused with gold shimmer), Jungle Red Lipstick (a super sexy retro red) & Body Glow (a golden shimmer body oil). I also like to carry a bottle of NARS eye makeup remover in my makeup kit. It’s fab at taking everything off the eye lid with out leaving a sticky residue, so you can easily apply eye shadow on the lid straight after. A must stop and shop destination spot for anyone visiting NYC.

I’m so excited for MAC’s Wonder Woman collection! Showcasing 4 gorgeous lipsticks including its iconic Russian Red plus Marquise d’ (cream peach), Spitfire (bright magenta) & Heroine (vibrant bronze). The packaging and advertisements for this new range are so fun. I remember as a little girl thinking Linda Carter, the actress who played Wonder Woman on TV at the time was so beautiful; even with her cartoon like makeup of blue eye shadow and bright red lip s- some how it just worked. What I wouldn’t give to have an invisible airplane and a lasso that can make people tell the truth… I guess I’ll just have to settle for one of MAC’s cute little makeup compacts!

Lately I’ve noticed a little beauty movement happening from Harpers Bazaar to Louis Vuitton’s latest ad campaign…it’s makeup with disco flavour! Big metallic eyes, lashes that are curled with thick mascara left spiky and layers upon layers of red shimmer lip gloss that’s practically dripping off the lips. I’m totally riding on the metallic bandwagon as I just purchased an Illamasqua limited edition liquid metal palette in 01 from Sephora in NYC. This Palette contains 4 slick shades of cream shadows in silver, bronze, copper and gold. I think this sexy makeup look is paired perfectly with the popular hair trend for big, frizzy textured hair as seen on the catwalks of Marc Jacob & PPQ. Makes me want to grab my vintage sequin mesh handbag and dance around to Donna Summer!

How about giving a gift of pampering this festive season? LUSH have some super limited edition holiday products. I admit, the aromas and smells inside a LUSH store can sometimes be a little over powering but the products themselves are good enough to eat. There’s nothing more relaxing than a hot bath after a long day with a LUSH fuzzy, foaming bath bombs. I want to try out the new Fizzbanger, it’s a toffee apple scented bath ball. With so many delicious flavours, the choice’s for yummy relaxation are endless.

Working in extremely close proximity with people, I am very aware of the importance of fresh breath. When having long shoot days with meals in between and early start times drinking coffee, gum doesn’t quite cut it. Recently I discovered Colgate Wisps – mini disposable tooth brushes. My favourite is the cinnamon flavour. Tiny packed and so easy to throw into my makeup kit. The models and talent I work with love them!!
