Mary-Kate Olsen And Gwyneth Paltrow At The Met Gala
As far as red carpet events go, the annual Costume Institute Gala at The Met in New York is the unrivaled pinnacle of fashion and beauty, the Oscars of the East Coast. At Monday night’s affair Gwyneth Paltrow and Mary-Kate Olsen showcased makeup looks by Hourglass Cosmetics as they ascended the famous steps of The Met Museum.
MARY-KATE OLSEN
As a fashion force and celebrated co-designer of The Row, Mary-Kate Olsen implicitly understands the nuances of style. For the Met ball, and to play off her dramatic black dress and textural updo, “She wanted her makeup to look tonal, earthy and utterly feminine,” says makeup artist Molly R. Stern. “It’s very modern and matte. The secret to pulling it off is imbuing the cheeks with a spot of color.”
Sexy Summer Perfumes
Loving the latest from COTY Prestige perfume for this summer. Summer of 2012. I’m a big Calvin Klein perfumes fan. I wear Euphoria and it’s one of the most unique scents I find on the market. I once watched a documentary about how Calvin Klein is coming up with their ideas and develop their fragrances.

Ever since that I’m re-assured that they really go through a lot of effort studying what works when it comes to perfumes, i.e. what sexy or not, what smells good. So look out for ETERNITY Summer Calvin Klein, roberto cavalli eau de parfum, CK one Summer Eau de Toilette.
Perfume Reviews
ETERNITY Summer Calvin Klein just smells good, very juicy fruity without being too sweet. Captures the drama of a summer sunset, as it illuminates the sky and glistens across the ocean.

I always have luck with Votre Vu skincare. Their products feel good and smell good. My latest picks from the brand are Votre Vu Self Preservation Self Tanning Milk for Face, and Votre Vu Royal Treatment Gentle Pearls Scrub an organic formula of refining pearls enrobed in a soothing exfoliating emulsion.

Think of the Votre Vu Royal Treatment Gentle Pearls Scrub as an ‘exfoliating water’. Apply on dry skin, massage, and rinse. It has a very liquid consistency, lighter than a serum, cream, or lotion.

How Much Does Your Stress & Diet Affect Your Skin
The times I notice a change with the way my skin looks and feels is when I’m stressed. Naturally when I’m stressed I don’t eat as well hence my diet changes. I don’t have the time to have a nice balanced dinner – instead I grab something fast on the go which is not as healthy or enough. Stress can come when working longer hours and also when I travel. My skin begins to feel dry, it looks deflated the opposite of plumped, and ashy grey i.e. lacks glow. Also not drinking enough water can make a huge difference on my skin, it makes it feel dry and tight. In a nut shell my skin can be sensitive.
