Allergy season is very much upon us and, unfortunately for many women, so is Allergy Face — the beauty challenges that accompany allergy symptoms. In fact, a recent survey from Zyrtec revealed that 96% of female allergy sufferers have experienced allergy-related beauty woes like a red nose, watery eyes or a puffy face.

What’s more, 50% of women with allergies have had to miss out on something meaningful, such as a party or date, because of Allergy Face. Two-thirds (66%) of women with allergies have felt ugly or unattractive for the same …

I am always looking for a long-wearing eyeliner that glides on silky and is skip-proof. Like others I have fallen for — Giorgio Armani being one of my faves — this new line, COVET, from Anastasia Beverly Hills, is clearly a great one!

The COVET Waterproof Eyeliner ($19.00) is practical. It has a built-in sharpener and once on lasts for hours. Anastasia says it’ll stay on for fourteen hours, yet I wore mine in Vert for ten, until I washed it off. It didn’t budge and can also be used as …

Anastasia Beverly Hills has launched Brow Duality ($23.00) that makes brightening the eye area as easy as 1-2-3. With a different color at each end, you choose if you want a matte or shimmer finish.

I used it in my inner eye area and also right under my brow bone; it does instantly make you appear more awake! Key ingredients such as …

Maybe I am old-school, but I remember Anastasia‘s rise to fame was due to her perfect brow shaping techniques years ago, so I was delighted to see the brand expanding into different, but plausible, directions. As I have said before, I love holiday palettes — and the rose-gold accents on this particular one had me enticed enough to sample it. I do think packaging plays a part in what consumers buy and I thought this packaging, although a bit kitschy, was really festive! It’s actually a nod to the glam and decadence of …

I was intrigued, once again, to sample products from Anastasia Beverly Hills, as Anastasia Soare is known as the Definitive Brow Expert. So, naturally, I wanted to try her other beauty products. I already have a favorite lipgloss within minutes of sampling Lola.

Kisses on My List Volume 2 Hydrafull Gloss Set ($30.00) are a set of six high-shine glosses in both matte and shimmer shades that wear all day. There are three softly sheer, opalescent glosses and three new Hypercolor glosses that actually stain your lips (and works with your skin’s chemistry to create …

We have to agree with the rest of the world, that the 2011 Oscars were far from the most entertaining show. In fact, at moments, I felt as though I had taken a sleeping pill. But that said, Anne Hathaway’s beauty looks were some that we simply admired to bits during the entire show. Here are here nine beauty looks, as well as the breakdown of how many minutes it took for her to get ready for her NEXT look:

We all have our beauty resolutions, right? One of ours is to ensure that 2012 will be the year where we devote energies to just about every beauty facet of our body….especially the jungle that are the eyebrows.
Finding the perfect brow look for you needn’t be difficult. Brows today are natural with just a slight hint of an arch. The easiest kits combine powder, brushes, tweezers and tools to keep your brows from becoming your “arch-enemy” and to give your eyes a well- groomed look.
Gone are the days of the …
