HD Nail Polish...
I came across Sally Hansen's new HD High Definition nail colors at Walgreens on Saturday. The line includes 8 fun summer colors that are, well, High Def. Apparently, there are real liquid crystals that result in a multi-dimensional, iridescent shine. It's kind of like a bright metallic...does that make sense?

I grabbed a bottle of the yellow Lite color. Here's a pic after two coats:
(pic is a little dull...it's a lot brighter in person)
All Lacquered Up models a few of the other colors. I'll be heading back for the green Hi-Def and the pink Digital colors.

Make-Up How-To: Anne Hathaway...
Dressed in Oscar de la Renta, Anne Hathaway attended the 63rd Annual Tony Awards in New York City last night. Makeup artist Julie Harris lets us in on what she used to make her eyes pop.
Julie applied Lancôme Modèle Sourcils in Naturel to shape and define her brows. She then applied Lancôme Artliner in Noir to her upper lash line. Lastly, Julie coated her lashes with Lancôme Hypnôse mascara to give her lashes extra volume and finish the look.
'Tis The Season...
Wedding season is here... and with it comes bridesmaids, reception halls, something borrowed, something blue...etc. As any bride-to-be knows, one of the most important things to prepare for is the bride's makeup.
Below are a few tricks Celeb makeup artist Mario Dedivanovic shares for a flawless face on that special day:
Photo Finish Foundation Primer by Smashbox. This is a really good primer to use all over before you apply your foundation. It helps keep the makeup last longer and keeps it smooth.
Secret Camouflage by Laura Mercier. This concealer had 2 shades that u can mix to get the perfect match for your skin. Go alittle lighter under the eye and for blemishes, match the exact skin color.
Loose Setting Powder by Laura Mercier. This is good to set your foundation and concealer. It’s very silky and sheer and has a bit of light reflecting which helps to smooth fine lines and imperfections. Try putting a bit of it on a velour puff and applying it that way. Great to touch up with also through out the day and night.
Oragasm Blush by NARS. It’s a peachy pink with shimmer and just looks beautiful and so many skin tones. Brush it on the apples of your cheeks (try not to go too low on the cheek with it).
Dior Bronze - Amber Tan by Dior. A matte golden bronze shade of bronzer. Brush it all around the frame of the face to warm your skin up. Dont forget to apply some to the neck too!
High Beam by Benefit. This is a luminescent complexion enhancer. Apply it on your cheek bones for a dewy glow. I like to use it on the center of the lip too for a hightlight and on the bridge of the nose.
Silk Eye Shadow Wash by Stila. It’s a water-based liquid-to-powder eyesshadow in a shade called kitten (pinkish gold tone) It looks great on alot of skin colors. Use it on your eyelid or to highlight.
Powerpoint Eyepencil by MAC. This pencil is great for a wedding because its waterproof but you can still blend it nicely for a smokey eye. Also great for the inner rim of the eye. After applying on top lids, brush alittle translucent powder over it and apply again. This will give the line alot of pigment and really pop.
B-Dazzle by GIELLA. The perfect shade eye shadow for the inner corner of the eyes. Makes you look more awake and gives that “angelic” look. GIELLA can also custom blend it into a pencil. www.Giella.com
