** Than the leading lotion sunless tanner

Selling tanning or self tanning products to Marta is like selling ice to Eskimos. My skin is naturally olive and has that constant Mediterranean tan. So I’m not very motivated to self tan often. However, St. Tropez Wash Off Instant Glow Body lotion ($18) manged to changed my mind.

What I love about it is that I get an instant sun kissed look with no commitment. I can wash it off any time. It’s not orange. It smells good. It’s not too dark. It’s just the right amount of sun glow. It’s easy to apply, although make sure to wash your hands after use, or even wear gloves when applying. The lotion is dark brown when first dispensed, once you spread all of the skin it turns into a sheer tan color or into that very desires sun kissed look. Remember, the St. Tropes Wash Off Instant Glow is not a self tanner, it’s a tinted body lotion.

The wash off St. Tropez line also include:

St. Tropez Wash Off Instant Glow Face, $15
St. Tropez Wash Off Instant Glow Mousse, $22.50

New York Fashion Week Fall Winter 2010: NARS Cosmetics created the makeup look at the Marc Jacobs AW2010 show.

INSPIRATION: “I was inspired by the film La Vie des Autres. I wanted the models to have a dirty look as if the hair and makeup had been slept in,” said designer Marc Jacobs, who specifically requested Barbarella lipstick to be used on the models’ lips.

LOOK: “This look is what you’d see on a girl from the East Village or St. Germain des Pres-an existentialist with a modern twist,” said NARS Cosmetics Founder and Creative Director François Nars whose application technique included using his fingers to achieve the faded effect. “These girls are sexy and cool. Their makeup looks dirty and worn out as if it has been on all night but still translates beautifully on the runway.”

Beauty Trend: Berry-stained Lips

GET THE LOOK: Award Winner Julianna Margulies Wears NARS Makeup at the 2010 Golden Globes!

The Look: “Julianna has such beautiful skin and a gorgeous beaming smile, that I wanted to keep the colors subdued and let her natural skintone shine through,” said Kristofer Buckle for NARS Cosmetics. “I didn’t want to use too much color because it might have taken away from her. I wanted it to be all about Julianna so I focused on highlighting her skin by encouraging shine and glow.”

Below is Kristofer’s makeup tutorial to recreate Julianna’s look:

Complexion:

· Using fingers apply Orgasm Illuminator (NEW for Spring 2010) down the center of the nose, across cheekbones, and on the apples of the cheeks
· Apply Firming Foundation all over face, mixing in with the Orgasm Illuminator
· Re-apply Orgasm Illuminator over the entire complexion to encourage shine [Kristofer’s tip: “I used the Flat Concealer Brush to apply the Orgasm Illuminator on top of the foundation creating high gleam.”]

Eyes:

· Apply both sides of Cordura Duo Eyeshadow into the crease and all over the eyelid
· Dab the sooty dark brown side of Cordura Duo Eyeshadow on the outer part of the eye [Kristofer’s tip: “I love the shimmering iridescent in this eyeshadow. A metallic iridescence softens the smokiness of an eye allowing it to look like it is part of the skin rather than looking gothic.”
· Next, use the sable shade from Brousse Duo Eyeshadow and lightly dust under lower lash line
· Then, lightly tap Orgasm Illuminator (NEW for Spring 2010) on the inside corner of the eye
· Curl the eyelashes and apply Larger Than Life Lengthening Mascara

Lips:

· Apply Cruising Lipstick (NEW Spring 2010)
· Next, layer Ophelia Lip Gloss (NEW Spring 2010) over the lipstick [Kristofer’s tip: “I love this soft pink, it adds just the right amount of color.”]

Cheeks:

· Dust Super Orgasm Blush onto the apples of cheeks

Body:

· Blend Orgasm Illuminator (NEW for Spring 2010) all over neck and décolletage

Orgasm Illuminator will be available at Sephora on February 1 and all other NARS Cosmetics are available at www.narscosmetics.com

This week, Giorgio Armani Beauty unveils the secret to achieving the perfect complexion with the debut of the “Armani A-List Essentials”.

Giorgio Armani Beauty Celebrity Makeup Artist Tim Quinn has hand selected his favorite pieces from the collection that are essential to his highly coveted makeup kit. “There are a few products that I use on all of my celebrity clients – from Sophia Bush to January Jones – in order to achieve that flawless complexion. I always start with the Fluid Master Primer to create a smooth surface and follow with a foundation that is appropriate for both my client’s skin tone and complexion. I finish by applying Fluid Sheer liquid highlighter along the outer edge of the eye and along the tops of the cheek bones to create that perfect luminous glow. The one tool that I use with all three products and absolutely cannot live without is our Blender Brush – it’s my secret weapon!”

The Armani A-List Essentials will be making its debut in NYC at the Giorgio Armani Beauty Counter at Bloomingdales 59th Street on Wednesday, October 7th, through Thursday, October 8th. During this exclusive period, clients will receive a special offer: with the purchase of a foundation, Fluid Master Primer and Fluid Sheer customers will receive a free Blender Brush (Tim’s beauty must-have!) while supplies last. Now customers can get red-carpet ready with their own makeup bag – and a few secret weapons!
