Since the age of thirteen, I have been wearing Fashion Fair. I started off wearing Fashion Fair‘s Oil Control Pressed Powder ($22.00) in Sable, then graduated to their Oil-Free Liquid Foundation ($23.00) in Sheer Espresso. I am now thirty-years-old and still wearing Fashion Fair‘s foundation and powder… in the same shades.
When I heard Fashion Fair was launching a new line (Sam Fine Fashion Fair Supreme Color Collection), I was ecstatic!

To began, there are eight new Supreme Lip Shades ($22.00) (Champagne Toast, Whispering Rose, Deep Suede, Moroccan Spice, Pink Parfait, Dynasty …

Our eye makeup application just isn’t complete without adding that finishing touch… mascara! Every girl just loves swiping on some lash-darkening mascara to either add volume, length, a curl or all three! Everyone has their favorite formula and brand, but BeautyStat knows that there are tons of different mascaras out there, how can we possibly try all of them? We asked our resident beauty-obsessed writers Nicole Gordon Levine and makeup artist Erin Sutera to tackle the ultimate task: make a list of the best volume, lengthening, defining, curling, long-wearing, oscillating …

I must say, every season I eagerly anticipate what Mr. François Nars has up his sleeve. Each season is more elegant and edgy than the last. I’m amazed how much the line has grown since I first sold his product all the way back in 1997. Even then his formulas, product names and, of course, his gorgeous packaging were way ahead of their time. The NARS Fall 2012 Collection is no exception: shadows, multiples, trios, matte lips, glossy lips and a signature limited edition nail polish. I also am stoked that he …

There’s nothing more beautiful when a beauty magazine such as Allure collaborates with the ultimate beauty mecca (Sephora) to create a beauty palette. The result? The allure + Sephora palette.

I’ve seen many beauty palettes in my lifetime, and have been impressed with holiday trunks from Sephora that hold everything from lip gloss to eye shadow to eye liner. What makes this palette different is that there are so many mini palettes that come with the caboodle, as well as one empty carry on palette that you can use while you …

When M.A.C. introduced their recent Blogger Obsessions, we were thrilled that such a brand put the spotlight on a medium that is becoming increasingly credible and influential: the beauty blog. Nothing says “you’ve arrived” more than having a big beauty brand create a product you’ve envisioned.
Hats off to one of the best in the biz, blogger and makeup artist, Lianne Farbes of The Makeup Girl, who was selected as one of the bloggers to fly up to Canada and create her own eye shadow which she named Hocus Pocus ($14.50 …
