Clarins doing makeup for the Summer? I couldn’t believe my eyes when I read about it. The name, Instant Sunlight, is particularly clever and makes me think of lazy, languid beach-filled days on Fire Island and the Hamptons.
The mochas and browns in the Clarins Instant Sunlight Makeup Eyeshadow Palette have summer spice written all over them:
The collection also has a Smoothing Luminating Compact in Natural and Bronze:
There are three Click & Gloss Lip Glazes in Vanilla, Coral & Cinnamon:

Casting pearls before swine may be a past time that Guerlain enjoys doing on a frequent basis, but I must confess that the Summer 2010 collection of the Guerlain Meteorites Perles is luxurious, eye-catching and delicate at the same time.
The Guerlain Meterorites Perles Makeup collection houses the colorful makeup pearls in a rose-motif silver box. They come in three shades:
1. Rose Tint
2. Beige Tint
3. Gold Tint

It looks like the shimmer and glimmer trend is extending well into the warmer months of the year — on your nails, that is. Zoya Nail Polish’s new Flash and Sparkle Collection for Summer 2010 is all about creamy summer colors as well as radiance the size of Mariah Carey’s 2008 17 carat $2.5 million engagement ring which seemed larger to me than the Pink Panther.
The shades sound great and look glinty:
Zoya Flash Collection (Six Cream Shades)
I’m digging the shades Dana and Jancyn.
Robyn (ZP513) – perfect turquoise cream

We’ve used the silky Benefit Velvet Eye Shadows before, but there are six spanking new powder shades for Spring 2010: Bo Peep, which is a dusky rose color, Buns (which reminds us of strawberry); Fancy Pansy (a lilac or lavender color); Mermaid (a beautiful, completely swoon-worthy green); Nice Melons (the name is pretty self explanatory); and Shamrocker (for all you Irish fanatics out there).
These shades glide on so easily and the powdery finish leaves a very subtle silken shimmer on your eyes, not unlike stardust bits. The reason I love …

What will the stars be wearing tonight at the Golden Globes? Here’s what the experts are saying.
Celebrity makeup artist for Sorme Cosmetics, Robert Hensley shares his views on beauty trends we are likely to see on the red carpet, “This Awards Season, bold metallics may replace the more traditional smokey eye, which has become a red carpet staple along with the classic simple eye/bold lip combo. Those starlets opting for a more natural look, allowing their gown or hair to speak for itself, may choose a little more shimmer or …

NARS Spring 2010 takes its cue notes from Catherine Deneuve’s role as Lucille in La Chamade. Soft and fluid, these shades are meant to evoke a high level of sophistication and bourgeoisie.
“I love Catherine’s makeup look in this movie,” says François Nars, Founder and Creative Director of NARS Cosmetics. “It’s very sophisticated and bourgeois in a Parisian ‘16th Arrondissement’ way. She is the perfect reference for this collection, and apropos for spring, a time to embrace color and get noticed.”
Model Amber Valletta is the face of the campaign.
