Blake Lively & Evan Rachel Wood:Summer Beauties
Blake Lively is looking effortlessly beautiful at the Swarovski Crystallized Concept store opening in New York City on Thursday (June 25). Blake’s look is also perfect for the summer: blonde highlights-check. Light makeup-check. Tousled wavy hair and not overly straightened-check.
Evan Rachel Wood also attended Swarovski Crystallized Concept store opening in New York City on Thursday (June 25) and passed Talking Makeup’s summer beauty test. Here is why & how: Rachel’s hair is pulled up in the back and is left almost undone for a relaxed summer look. Humidity and heat levels rise in the summer, so it’s OK to pull your hair up for a cool, ‘not trying too hard’ chic look.

Allen Goldman Founder of Skindinavia Interview with Marta Walsh
I’ve recently interviewed the man behind Skindinavia, Allen Goldman.
In this interview Allen Goldman talks to me about the creation of Skindinavia, also known as “The Original Makeup Saver”, and what makes it an essential beauty product in every girl’s makeup bag. His philosophy about beauty. New Skindinavia product in the making for 2010: a simple mist that gives your makeup a sun kissed glow all winter! And his love for travel.
Allen Goldman
Marta Walsh: When did your passion for the beauty industry begin?
Allen Goldman: My passion for science has been around since I was very young. I credit my brother for bringing it to beauty when he developed a number of new transdermal technologies with a research partner at MIT. It was so exciting to see science that had never been done before. So many people believe “everything” has already been discovered. It hasn’t.
Skindinavia Makeup Finishing Spray
MW: How was the concept for Skindinavia born?
AG: Skindinavia was born from a lot of listening at makeup counters. I was the Director of Education for another skin care company dealing with top spas and prestige retailers globally. When we started, we had only four products. One was a light spray moisturizer that hydrated amazingly well.
