L’Oreal Age Perfect Hydra-Nutrition Cream

L’Oreal Paris got it right with their new L’Oreal Age Perfect Hydra-Nutrition Day/Night Cream. The product is super hydrating, soothing to dry sin, and it has a really nice citrus light scent which is quite calming. I also like that is a ‘2-in-1’ day and night cream. Sometimes I get confused with all the different creams, and it give me an extra space in my bathroom shelf and my suitcase. I’m so thrilled that great skincare is now very affordable to all women. This one is a drugstore treasure.

Kate Hudson’s Makeup at the 2010 Golden Globes

GET THE LOOK: Kate Hudson was wearing CHANEL Beauté at the 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards. Kate’s makeup look was created by Makeup Artist Leslie Lopez.

Beauty Inspiration & The Look: “Golden Globes makeup is all about the dress. When I saw Kate in her gorgeous white dress, I knew we had to go for a clean, sophisticated, pretty look – very Grace Kelly.”

Beauty Tip: “I prepped Kate’s skin with CHANEL Sublimage Fluid before applying her base, L’Oreal True Match Foundation in N-3. In the crease of her eyes I used the grey shade from the CHANEL Quadra Eye Shadow in Blue Celestes. I applied the lightest silvery white shade under the brow bone, as well as under the lash line. The inside of her eyes were lined with Almay black eye pencil, and I finished the eyes with CHANEL Inimitable Mascara in Noir. Finally, on her lips I used CHANEL Aqualumiere Sheer Colour Lipshine in Malta, a sheer subtle peach shade.”

Demi Moore Hosts All You’ve Ever WANTED Fragrance Launch

Last night, Vanity Fair, L’Oreal and Demi Moore celebrated Helena Rubinstein’s launch of the century–All You’ve Ever WANTED, the new fragrance inspired by Demi.

Demi was joined by Ashton Kutcher, Zac Posen and an elite group of V.I.P.s to toast the debut of the fragrance at Monkey Bar in N.Y.C.

Reflecting her modern love story and captivating allure, All You’ve Ever WANTED is a contemporary expression of Demi Moore’s daring appeal. The intoxicating fragrance blends an enveloping sensuality of magnolia with iris-cream, magnified by a charismatic touch of cedar extract for an irresistibly feminine and intense potion.

The new fragrance will be available exclusively at Macy’s starting November 5th.

“Eastwick” Star Jaime Ray Newman Interviews With Marta Walsh

I’m so excited to share with you my interview with “Eastwick” star Jaime Ray Newman who plays the character of Kat Gardener. Eastwick is an American television drama series, that is scheduled to premiere on ABC on Wednesday, September 23, 2009 at 10:00 PM ET. Eastwick is a television adaption of the 1987 feature The Witches of Eastwick. Show’s cast also includes Lindsay Price, and Rebecca Romijn.

Newman’s previous roles include: Kristina Carter Cassadine on the soap opera, General Hospital. And, a part in the Steven Spielberg’s Catch Me If You Can, with a scene opposite Leonardo DiCaprio.


Jaime Ray Newman

In this interview Jaime Ray Newman talks to Marta Walsh about her first breaks as an actress. Her role as Kat Rougemont on the new ABC show “Eastwick”. Beauty secrets, and future plans.

Marta Walsh: How did you decide on a career in acting, and what were some of your first breaks as an actress?
Jaime Ray Newman: I did my first professional play when I was 12. A local theater came to my middle school to audition girls for a new Israel Horowitz play, and I got the gig. My parents first reaction was “There are two people in this household with careers and you’re not one of them”. But after much begging, they acquiesced, and away I went. My first real break was playing Kristina Cassadine on “General Hospital”. I was fresh out of college and thrilled to be working.

MW: What attracted you to Kat Rougemont’s character on the new ABC show “Eastwick”?
JRN: I love playing Kat. She’s quite unlike me, actually, so I really get to dig and create a character. She’s undertaken so much responsibility (5 children, a full time job, a husband who may as well be one of her kids) that she hasn’t had a second for herself since she was 18. She’s struggling to find her voice again, and that is always fascinating to me. Playing someone in deep conflict is always the most interesting.

Watch “Eastwick” trailer below, the show looks so cute! It’s like “Sex and The City” meets “Charmed”.
