MAC Dame Edna Makeup Collection
MAC Dame Edna Makeup Collection is a new makeup collection by Mac Cosmetics:
“Hello possums!” Dame Edna Everage is in the house! With her zesty zingers, cutting-edge appearance – lilac hair (which is completely natural), rhinestone-encrusted face furniture, fanciful frocks – frankly; there’s nothing like a Dame! Dame Edna is the resident muse for our spectacular post-holiday makeup collection,
and modestly describes herself as “probably the most popular and gifted woman in the world today: housewife, investigative journalist, social anthropologist, talk-show host, swami, children’s book illustrator, spin doctor, megastar, and Icon.”
With packaging as mirthful and minx-like as The Legend herself, the Dame Collection of heavy-on-the-lilac Lipstick/Lipglass, eye shadow, Highlight powder and nail lacquers is in a class by itself! “Follow my beauty regime possums, and you’ll never be cosmetically challenged”- Dame Edna.
The MAC Dame Edna Makeup Collection includs:
CHANEL Moscow Collection Limited Edition Nail Colors
CHANEL Moscow Collection Limited Edition Nail Colors were first seen at the CHANEL Paris-Moscow show at the Ranelagh Theatre in Paris on December 3rd. This limited edition collection of nail lacquers was conceived of by Peter Philips, Global Creative Director for CHANEL Makeup.
“The Or de Russie nail colour we used on the models at the show comes from the new CHANEL Moscow Collection, composed of three shades that I specially created for the show,” states Peter Philips. “The base of these three shades is black, to which we added a different sparkle for each of the colours: red, gold and blue.
The Feu de Russie shade is intense and reflects passion. Or de Russie has a slight gold patina and evokes richness, while Nuit de Russie blue is full of mystery. When you apply the shades, which are rather dark, the surprising element is that they capture light so well that they create a fireworks effect – the shades dazzle with an unbelievable sparkle.”

Marta Walsh Interviews Sara Strand of Pop Beauty
Meet Sara Strand the founder of Pop Beauty makeup line. In this interview Sara Strand talks to Marta Walsh about what drove her to create Pop Beauty, Eyecakes- the first product she conceptualized and developed as part of Pop Beauty, how Pop Beauty is perfect for anybody who is ready to experiment and move a little bit out of their comfort zone, her talent for singing, and her very exciting move to sunny California.
How was the idea for Pop Beauty makeup line born?
As a makeup artist and a woman – pop where the pieces that were missing in my makeup bag. Pop represents everything that I love about life, zest, energy, playfulness, and originality. Also there really was a gap in the market for fun colorful makeup of great quality! I also wanted fabulous products that would really stand out on stage.
How does the name Pop Beauty reflect its makeup collections?
The name says it all! A pop of color, to make your eyes pop. Pop culture, pop art. Just like the collections the name sums up what I love about makeup with an added edge and a touch of femininity!
What was the first makeup product you have conceptualized and created for Pop Beauty?
The eyecakes was the first product formulated for the first collection. The shades harmonize and are put together specifically to make green, blue and brown eyes pop. It’s a makeup artist’s advice in a cute retro tin! And the colors look amazing on!

Kate Hudson on the Cover of Harper’s Bazaar January 2008 Edition
Kate Hudson is on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar January 2008 edition!
Kate Hudson is looking very model thin on this cover (real or photoshopped, you decide, hehe).
Let’s talk about Kate Hudson’s hair and makeup look on the cover of the 2009 UK Harper’s Bazaar cover : soft smoky eyes achieved by a black purple eye liner (try MAC Cosmetics Eye Liner in Black Raven). Flawless complexion, and very natural lips, I’m not even sure Kate Hudson is wearing any lipstick or a lip gloss! Cheeks are accented softly with a neutral tone.
Kate Hudson’s hair is on the short side, just a little bit over her shoulders. Looks like short hair is in girls!
All in all, Kate Hudson is looking very pretty and very chic.
What do you think, is Kate Hudson’s looks are 100% real on this cover or she is slightly photoshopped?
