Weekly Report: Top 3 Fragrances by Talking Makeup
Here is a list of some of my favorite fragrances for the week. These are just fabulous according to my taste. Go check them out and see for yourself. I really hope you will love them as much as I do:)
1. Dolce & Gabbana The One: is a soft sweet and never overpowering perfume. Suitable for day or night. (Also, I LOVE Dolce & Gabbana The One for Men, smells so hot!).
If you are between Dolce & Gabbana The One and Dolce & Gabbana L’Eau The One, the two fragrances are different. If you are not into fruity floral perfumes you might like Dolce & Gabbana The One the original, which also happens to be the one I own.
Notes: Bergamot, Mandarin, Lychee, Peach, Madonna Lily, Muguet, Plum, Jasmine, Vetiver, Vanilla, Amber, Musk.
FlowerbyKenzo Spring Fragrance
New! Limited Edition FlowerbyKenzo Spring Fragrance: Spring is finally here! Kenzo is celebrating with FLOWERBYKENZO Spring Fragrance Limited Edition; perfect for shaking off the cold winter weather. The sweet, citrusy scent of lychee brings a brightness to this sparkling floral eau de toilette.
FlowerByKenzo Spring is a fresh fragrance with mandarin and ginger notes and a hint of lychee. Lovely violet, freesia and white musk are the heart notes of this fragrance.
Available for a limited time only in April 2009, this light, feminine fragrance recalls the welcoming sunlight that brings nature back to life.
MAC A Rose Romance
MAC A Rose Romance will be available for a limited time starting April 23, 2009: Suggesting sonnets celebrated for centuries: Come into my garden, I would like my roses to see you!” poet Sir Richard Brinsley Sheridan once said, and what lady could resist such flattery?
A tradition in haute-couture, an enduring Icon of Love and certainly the only flower acceptable to throw on stage at the Met or clench between teeth in a Buenos Aires tango salon, the rose remains beyond reproach. M·A·C creates a very modern Rose Romance, our lovely new colour collection for the summer season. Spring buds blush in fragrant new hues when Just A Pinch Gel Blush debuts; Fix + Rose refreshes; and our bring-back favourite fragrance, Creations Hue: Dejarose, whispers anew… But with great beauty there is always pass ion and peril… mind the thorns!

Halle Berry graces Harper’s Bazaar Magazine May 2009 Cover.
Halle Berry’s hair on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar may 2009 cover is lighter than ever. I actually love Halley in longer hair, it’s a softer look. Remember she used to a very short boy hairstyle…

MAC Prep + Prime Line Filler, Skin Refined Zone & Transparent Finishing Powder Q&A with Nick Gavrelis
MAC Prep + Prime Line Filler, Skin Refined Zone & Transparent Finishing Powder Q&A with Nick Gavrelis, Vice President, Global Product Development, Face and PRO, MAC Cosmetics.
Q: Can you talk about the concept of the Prep + Prime collection? How does it differ from typical skincare products?
M·A·C Prep + Prime products bridge the gap between makeup and skincare. Given M·A·C’s inherent credibility with makeup, this premise has really matured over the years. The primer category has become more relevant and now has such a following that we needed to expand our offering. Prep + Prime is a unique franchise for M·A·C. When we launched the original products, we knew they would have a cult following – not just with M·A·C artists but also other professionals and ultimately the consumer.
MAC Prep + Prime Line Filler, Skin Refined Zone & Transparent
Finishing Powder are part of the latest MAC Colour Ready
makeup collection.
MAC Prep + Prime Skin Refined Zone, MAC Prep + Prime Line Filler, MAC Prep + Prime Transparent Finishing Powder
The MAC Prep + Prime collection first launched in 2005 with Eye, Lash, Lip and Skin, followed by Skin SPF 50 in April 2006. The products were an answer to the needs of the PRO makeup artist, who wanted products that created flawless skin on which to apply makeup.
The key point of difference in the MAC Prep + Prime collection from other primers is that they were developed specifically to be used with makeup while also offering skincare benefits. Most skincare products are designed and tested for use alone. Because MAC is first and foremost a makeup artistry brand, each Prep + Prime product was specifically tested to enhance the makeup wear experience.
These products are a true hybrid formula of both skincare and makeup, with a new view on technology and texture. Prep + Prime employs new, breakthrough formulations that have both accumulative visible long-term benefits, as well as immediate visible results on the skin.
As technologies and makeup artist needs are always evolving, MAC is introducing three new products to round out the collection and provide more advanced tools to its artists and consumers: Skin Refined Zone, Line Filler, and Transparent Finishing Powder.
MAC Prep + Prime Skin Refined Zone is a partial primer designed for use in the T-Zone. This lightweight, oil-free, soy-based emulsion instantly helps minimize visible pores while helping to control excess surface oil and shine.
