Milly Springs Forward For Clinique
"Color plays center stage in my collections," says Michelle Smith, and now, the designer of Milly has something playful, chic, and bright to offer up for her second collaboration with Clinique.
The Milly For Clinique 8-Piece Gift is full of skin and makeup favorites, all packaged up in Milly's floral foldover clutch bag, which to me has somewhat of a retro, Miami-glamour kind of vibe. Free with any Clinique purchase of $25 or more, the vividly-hued bag of goodies is available at Bloomingdales exclusively from Feb.
Ten Tantalizing Valentine's Day Beauty Products!
There are only a handful of days left to go until Valentine's Day this Sunday. If you haven't gotten your significant someone, friends or family a gift yet, a beauty trinket always does the job. These gifts aren't crazy expensive, but they say I love you in a very special way.
Clinique's New Moisturizer Is Even Better
I'm pretty suspicious of skin-tone-evening agents, especially since they tend to be nothing more than traditional skin bleachers like hydroquinone that may have harmful side effects. Clinique Even Better Skin Tone Correcting SPF 20 Moisturizer ($42), however, substitutes acids, caffeine, and yeast extract for the usual suspects. Huzzah!
This product is definitely a tone evener, not a lightener, so I haven't gotten any of the blotchiness that can sometimes occur with skin bleach.

Are you in the market for a new body wash — especially one that's great for both seasonally and naturally dry skin? Perhaps you should take a piece of advice from reader stef42678, who recently reviewed
Reader Review of the Day: Clinique Vitamin C Lip Smoothie
Clinique is endlessly coming out with new products, many of them seasonal. That's why I'm always glad when readers write in to review new releases they've just tried, like this Clinique Vitamin C Lip Smoothie ($17.50). I liked it, but did reader Laratf feel the same way?
Backstage Pass To LFW Spring 2010: Paul Costelloe
Lucky FabSugar UK and I were able to get backstage after the 2010 Spring Paul Costelloe Fashion Show at the BFC Tent on Friday morning. As it was the first show at London Fashion Week, it kind of felt like the first day of school with people wandering around the new (and might I add beautiful) new Somerset House vast location.
The tents look relatively the same, however the backstage area is far more spacious which is great for primping.
Will You Buy Beauty Products To Help Fight Breast Cancer?
For those of you who don't know, October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. In past years, oodles of beauty brands have banded together and have put the pink ribbon across one of their signature best-selling products whose profits will propel breast cancer research or help raise awareness about the disease that effects so many women.
For example, Essie has released a nail varnish called Future Dreams (£9.95) where all of the proceeds will go to Breakthrough Breast Cancer.
How To: Get January Jones's Cocktail Chic Makeup Look
Last night at the TCA AMC cocktail reception in California, actress January Jones arrived in a cutesy black-bow frock with her hair styled in a chic coif and perfectly flawless makeup. January always looks amazing, but I like how her makeup isn't too overdone here. With some filler on her brows, a dewy base, a touch of black liner, mascara and finally a tomato red lipstick, this siren makes getting red carpet ready look as easy as pie!
New Product Alert: Clinique Vitamin C Lip Smoothies
Just a few days ago I was introduced to my new lip obsession from Clinique called Vitamin C Lip Smoothie Antioxidant Lip Colour (£13.50). I've been using fig-a-licious, a medium rosey-berry hue with silver gitter particles. It's just about one shade deeper than my natural lip colour, so it gives me a perfectly fresh, minimalist makeup look when paired with two coats of black mascara and some blusher.

For the price and the sheer amount that is in the jar, you cannot go wrong with this powder.
