Molton Brown Spa- Hotel St. Barth Isle de France
Hotel St. Barth Isle de France recently unveiled a quartet of well-appointed Beach Suites, each boasting breathtaking views of pristine Baie des Flamands. Adding to the existing luxurious accommodations and amenities at Isle de France, the new Suites offer a private retreat for guests – ideal for honeymooners or those just looking to get away from it all. Situated directly on Flamands Beach, the deluxe Beach Suites have been designed in the casual-chic style of interior designer Penny Morrison of Morrison Interiors in London, who helped the redesign of the property when it was bought in 2000 by current owners Charles and Mandie Vere Nicoll.
“We are excited by this new addition to our property,” said Charles Vere Nicolls. “The best and latest in luxury amenities combined with Penny and Mandie’s relaxed style enhances the peaceful setting for guests.”
America Ferrera Wears Lancôme at 2009 Kids’ Choice Awards
America Ferrera wears Lancôme at 2009 Kids’ Choice Awards: Celebrity makeup artist Vanessa Scali created the look for America Ferrera at the Kids’ Choice Awards on Saturday night. Talking Makeup got the scoop, straight from Lancôme & Vanessa, on how to re-create America’s glamorous look.
How to get America Ferrera’s Makeup Look at 2009 Kids’ Choice Awards:
First, before applying any makeup, Vanessa prepped the skin with Lancôme Genifique, a youth activating concentrate that improves tone, texture and luminosity giving the skin a natural glow.
To create a flawless complexion, Vanessa used both Lancôme Effacernes concealer and Armani Lasting Silk UV SPF 20 Foundation.
Vanessa used Armani Fluid Sheer #2 as a highlighter and applied it with her finger to the cheekbone and brow bone. This gave the complexion a bit of added shimmer.
