They were all easy-to-apply due to their small and steady application brush, and I also noticed that the second coat really made the color pop.

Sequins, velvet, satin and tweed! This season the runways were abundant with …

Beauty industry trailblazer and Perfekt Beauty founder, Richard Anderson was a delight to my eyes as I walked into the private room at The Sanctuary Hotel where I attended the brand’s beauty event in hopes of sampling and learning more about the much talked about line.
Richard welcomed me and began to tell me how the line got started. He told me that Perfekt ® is the number # 2 selling product in Henri Bendel. And to me, that says a lot given how many great beauty lines they carry there. He …

Cocktails, pancake mix, the truth – some things should never be watered down. But liquid foundation? Maybe so. Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua Makeup and Shiseido Makeup Perfect Refining Foundation aim to be lighter than the average makeup while disguising unevenness just as well as thicker formulas. “Usually to get a more watery feel, you’d use less pigment,” says cosmetic chemist Ron Robinson. That’s what makes these foundations surprising: “They actually give more coverage than a typical liquid foundation,” says makeup …
