Makeup Meltdown Solutions:Skindinavia Cool Flash Makeup Finish
I’m always on the look out for the latest beauty innovations. Finding a way to help my makeup stay in place all day and all night, especially during the Summer, is quite revolutionary! What I’ve discovered is Skindinavia Cool Flash Makeup Finish. It is designed to be heat resistant and to hold my makeup in place. What I like about this spray mist is that it feels fresh as water and doesn’t have an overpowering scent or feel (it’s oil-free), so it is a no brainer for me!
Skindinavia Cool Flash Makeup Finish Heat Resistant Makeup Hold ($29): A weightless mist holds foundation, eye shadow, blush and concealer. Other benefits: Fewer required “touchups” throughout the day. Helps reduce makeup slippage into pores, lines, wrinkles, or scars.
NARS Fall 2009 Collection
Fall’s runways were dominated by two words: bold and feminine. Strong shouldered and form-hugging silhouettes, extreme heels and provocative thigh-high boots, and a color palette of classic hues turned up a notch to Technicolor volumes. These trends also illustrate the NARS Fall collection.
“For this collection, I wanted to create something fragile and strong, and seductive but not aggressive,” said François Nars, Founder and Creative Director of NARS Cosmetics. The combination of strength and refinement has become a hallmark of NARS, and is particularly fitting this season as the brand celebrates its 15th anniversary.
Below are the highlights:
NARS Fast Ride Lipstick – $24: This seemingly dark purple may intimidate, but swipe it across the lips and its true shade is revealed: a sheer mulberry. A color that falls somewhere between an intense plum wine stain, and a moody, deep violet.
NARS Tokaido Express – $16: This new hue is a cult classic in the making. Named after Japan’s most heavily frequented high-speed rail route, this lacquer is an opulent blackened amethyst doused with ultra-fine gold dust particles.

Mai Quynh Explains How She Created Isla’s Red Carpet Look:
Eyes: “Isla’s Stella McCartney dress was sweet, flirty and 60’s inspired. She accessorized with rose gold shoes and super cool gold jewelry, so we decided to keep her makeup fun! For Isla’s eyes, I started by using mark I-Mark Custom Pick Eyeshadow in Corset, applying it with the mark Eyeliner Brush. I then smudged Corset along her top and bottom lashes, staying very close to the lash line. Then I applied mark Get in Line Waterproof Hook Up Liquid Eyeliner, and lined the top and bottom of her lash line, connecting the two lines and winging it upwards. To finish, I applied two coats of mark Lash Splash Waterproof Hook Up Mascara in Black.
