I like to get in the Halloween and fall mood with my beauty products as well. I blogged earlier about my favorite food and holiday inspired body wash by Philosophy I Love Candy Corn and I also love the June Jacobs Perfect Pumpkin Peeling Enzyme Masque. Can you get more Halloween inspired beauty products with a name like Pumpkin:) This my version of a Halloween masque (pun intended).

In Marta’s Makeup Bag: the supernatural superglossy Lip Gloss by Philosophy in follow your dreams ($16.50). This lip gloss is light and not greasy, perfect for daytime or for the the office. I like to also use this lip gloss underneath a darker lipstick to soften the look. follow your dreams is a beautiful soft pink coral shade. It feels a bit cooling and soothing when you apply on lips. And the name follow your dreams is SO inspiring!

Summer is a beautiful time of the year: it’s nice and hot outside, we swim in the ocean or the pool, we get great skin and beachy waves thanks to sea water, get sun-kissed, and eat delicious and succulent fruits. Sometimes summer is SO good we don’t want it to go away.

Here are some beauty tip to stretch your summer just a little longer into fall…

Take a nice bath with Philosophy Raspberry Sorbet shower gel & Bubble bath to remind you of succulent summer fruits and ice cream. $16 at www.sephora.com

A nice sea salt body scrub such as Origins Incredible Spreadable Scrub Sea Salt Body Smoother will help satisfy your craving for sea water and ocean, $26. Available at www.beauty.com

You’ve spent hours on the beach or by the pool. You squeezed fresh lemon on your hair in your garden. Or you’ve spent some decent cash on your blond highlights. Whichever way you’ve achieved beautiful blonde highlights, you can stretch their life with Redken Blonde Glam Shampoo & Conditioner, and Blonde Glam Color Enhancer Rich Vanilla or Perfect Platinum.

I can’t be more excited today and bring to you an interview I did recently with the beautiful Kourtney Kardashian!

Kourtney Kardashian is the sweetest girl and chatting with her was such pleasure. Kourtney’s voice was very calm and she was kind enough to share with me some of her beauty secrets, her experience on the hit series on E!: Keeping Up With The Kardashians, and future plans.

Kourtney Kardashian interviewed with me for Talking Makeup’s celebrity beauty section: www.beautyinterviews.com

Kourtney Kardashian is best known for her appearances on the reality show Keeping Up with the Kardashians and is also the big sister to Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, and Kylie and Kendall Jenner.

Kourtney Kardashian and her sister Khloe Kardashian will be appearing in a spin-off show which will air in August 2009 on E! Networks. The spin-off will feature the sisters moving to Miami to open a second Dash store on the east coast. The show has a working title of: Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami.

I caught up with Kourtney Kardashian on a telephone from Los angles early in the morning (and I must say, Kourtney was very punctuate!) to chat about the time she discovered the love for makeup. Why she looks up to her mother, Kris Jenner. Best part of being on the show: Keeping Up With The Kardashians. What’s in Kourtney’s makeup bag. What does she feel about becoming famous. And her new reality show Kourtney and Khloe in Miami.

Marta Walsh: When did you first discover makeup?
Kourtney Kardashian: Probably way too young. Kim and I went to all girls Catholic school where we had to wear uniforms so the only way we could express ourselves was wearing cute shoes or a lipstick. I remember wearing lipstick in seventh grade. Our teacher would take our lipsticks away and throw them away every day. That’s why we would buy cheap lipsticks in a drugstore. It was a burgundy color lipstick. Not a cute color. We also then began wearing an eye liner.
