Top Beauty Products For Halloween
Sometimes I don’t feel like going all out with a complete Halloween costume, and instead I just use one or two beauty products for a “costume” that hints that it’s Halloween. Here are my picks for the top Halloween beauty products from fake nails, fake eye lashes, and even how to remove all these special occasion makeup with products from Simple Skincare.
Black Nails: I like NARS Andy Warhol Back Room Nail Polish. It’s a black polish perfect for the darker and colder days. It’s a very mysterious polish just like Halloween… a bit edgy, yet elegant.

Nude Skincare
Nude skincare is one of the best anti-aging natural skincare line (so good I wish I’ve invented it). Most natural skincare feel super greasy and have overpowering oil scents that actually turn-me-off and make me resort back to traditional skincare lines. Nude is the most clever one. It is designed to be natural but also be effective just like your normal anti-aging skincare products. It’s a bit like a veggie or soy burger ha! It kinda almost feels and smellsnormal, real.

Nude Skincare products include:

Redken For Men clean brew shampoo
Redken For Men clean brew shampoo good enough for him, good enough for her. I used it as a clarifying shampoo the other day and to my surprise it worked even on a girl’s hair ha! It clarifies without drying my hair and it smells kinda nice, very citrus which in my opinion is a unisex scent.

Jo Malone London Velvet Rose & Oud Cologne Intense Perfume
I just got the chance to try the NEW Jo Malone London Velvet Rose & Oud Cologne Intense perfume and it’s GOOD. I like it because it’s a very unique scent nothing I’ve smelled before, it’s woody, not at all floral or fruity (I don’t like floral fruity perfumes), it’s intense, perfect for night time, I can see you drawing some attention (in a good way).
Jo Malone London Launches Velvet Rose & Oud Cologne Intense
I’ve first discovered the Jo Malone store in New York City about 10 years ago. I remember buying their (can you believe) Lime Blossom perfume, well I guess our tastes change over time, ha! If you like Tom Ford BLACK ORCHID perfume and the NEW Coco Noir by CHANEL you night also like this.
Brad Pitt Debuts As New Face of CHANEL N°5
And for the first time, the perspective of a man – Brad Pitt – on the most feminine fragrance of all time: CHANEL N°5 For many, CHANEL N°5 is an icon. For others, the best-selling fragrance evokes the eternal woman. For Joe Wright, the director of the new advertising campaign for N°5, the scent is “a phenomenon that continues to invent and reinvent itself.” Case in point: the unexpected decision to sign Brad Pitt as the face of N°5. The actor follows in the footsteps of Coco Chanel, Marilyn Monroe, Catherine Deneuve, Lauren Hutton, Nicole Kidman and Audrey Tautou, and represents a first in the world of women’s fragrance, just as N°5 marked a first in 1921 with its radical and intoxicating mix of 80 ingredients.

Instant Makeover Beauty Tips
You don’t have to win “American Idol” to experience an instant makeover. With some basic steps, you can too get a new look overnight with tons of compliments from friends to follow. Here’s my 2 cents on what you can do to start turning heads today.
SKINCARE
Moisturize your skin. It doesn’t matter if you’re in your 20s or 40s, the basic thing you need to keep your skin healthy and looking good is a great moisturizer. It doesn’t need to be fancy, ‘anti-aging’ or anything like that. It just needs to be kind to your skin and it needs to work well to keep your skin moist. I like to hydrate my skin with Simple Vital Vitamin Day Cream SPF 15. My sensitive skin loves it and I love the compliments… people think I have some kind of bigger beauty secret, and I don’t!

HAIR
Grow your hair long, get highlights or change your hair color… just do something different. Because contrast is an instant glam makeover, part your hair in the middle – side parting is nice, but not as edgy. Short hair screams average, and to look more like a star, think ‘bigger than life.’ Long hair is the way to go.
