Vajazzling: The First SFW Public Pictures {Beauty and Society}


Bryve Gruber-Vajazzling-0.JPG
I wrote last time about how the pubis, which some confuse with the vagina curiously, has become the new grooming terrain for the thumb up and the thumb down on Swarovski crystals being applied "down there." Historically, both beauty professionals and fiends have done their best to delineate new body parts to focus on with special, refined treatments. Now tattoos on the derriere would be considered a sedate option so the new buzz-worthy beauty frontier to be pushed has been the pubis. And vajazzling. The term was apparently coined by actress Jennifer Love Hewitt.

In a valiant effort to put images on words, New York City based blogger Bryce Gruber of The Luxury Spot was contacted to go on a vajazzling mission. She went, was filmed and photographed and offers us the first pictures of the treatment. She said,

"I'm here to cover up my C section scar. I'm here to give the women of America options."...

Illamasqua Spring-Summer 2010 Nail Polishes: Beautifully Faded and Dusty {New Beauty Products -Nails}


illamasqua-nails-spring-summer-2010.jpg
Illamasqua have unveiled their new collection of nail polish colors for Spring-Summer 2010 and they are beautifully faded and dusty. They debuted today February 20th, 2010 in the UK, exclusively at Selfridges, after having taken their virgin trips on the fashion runways.

The four new shades are called Mint Green, Lemon Yellow, Powder Blue and Lilac. I especially love the Powder Blue color.  They look like Easter-egg colors seen through a veil of gray chiffon.

Each nail polish is priced at £13 or about US $20 at current exchange rate.

Tracy Reese for Sally Hansen Collection: Beautiful Nudes and Lattes {New Beauty Products - Nails}



tracy-reese-Hansen-B.jpgThe new collection by Tracy Reese for Sally Hansen has yielded beautiful results. The line is a gorgeous palette of neutrals, nudes and shades of café au lait, lattes, dark chocolate. The whole gamut of the experience of drinking at a café in Paris except it looks super chic on nails. I really love the subtlety of the colors here. Methinks the palette needs to stay together on each hand! 

The range includes Evening Fog, Fedora, Wet Clay, Touch of Mink and Bitter Sweet.

"For the ninth season in a row, Sally Hansen has joined forces with fashion icon Tracy Reese to develop the season's essential accessory: stark nail lacquers inspired by Reese's fall collection."...

Chris Benz to Appear at Lancome Counter at Saks in Manhattan Feb 18, 2010: Whip Out Your Chris & Tell! {Beautiful Strolls & Must-See Addresses}

This is one of the last calls to buy the latest Pout-a-Porter by Lancôme, Chris and Tell, a peachy coral lipstick that has been selling like hot cakes since its launch in February 2010. See previous article on when it appeared on the runway. It's also an opportunity for you to have your own lippie signed by the designer even if you've already purchased one and meet the other man behind the twist-up tube, makeup artist Daniel Martin.

"Chris is doing a personal appearance at the Saks Fifth Avenue Lancôme counter in Manhattan tomorrow. He'll be signing lipsticks and sharing the inspiration for his Spring 2010 collection. Saks is the official retailer for Chris & Tell and this is one of the only counters that has any lipsticks left (and only because a special batch was reserved for Chris's P.A.!)."...
