We were thrilled to be invited to join a Google hangout with L’Oréal Paris Spokesperson Eva Longoria today.  Eva is currently at the Cannes Film Festival in France but she took time out of her busy schedule to have a live chat with a few beauty journalists from all over the world.

We each got to ask Eva a question about her beauty routine. Below are her responses:
Skincare:  Eva strongly believes that good skincare is the foundation of your beauty regimen. She says “if your skincare is not right, it affects …

As many of you may or may not know, I’m getting married! I am so happy to be tying the knot, but have dreaded the actual fact that I have to plan a wedding.
And with their big day looming, many brides worry how they will look as they walk down the aisle. While some schedule liposuction and facelifts months in advance, others rely on the idyllic wedding dress to perfect their appearance. (All photos courtesy of Turnquist Photography)

The prospect of planning made me less nervous after I attended the New York Magazine’s …

In recent beauty news, it appears that some of your personal care products could be affecting your health. But, after reviewing the UFC-Que Choisir’s (the Western European nonprofit consumer association) article online, I believe their concerns are valid and their analysis of 66 products is accurate.
The “endocrine disrupters” (which affect hormone production) found in the products were preservatives, anti-bacterial agents, sunscreens and emollients. Levels of these disrupters were also determined.
Que Choisir wrote that they compared the level of propylparaben in Nivea Water Lily & Oil Shower Gel (0.00268%) to the Scientific Committee on …

Before The Great Gatsby hits theater on May 10th, get Daisy Buchanan‘s makeup (played by lead actress Carrie Mulligan, sided by the one and only Leonardo DiCaprio) from this latest novel-to-the-big-screen romantic drama.
As you can see, Daisy’s makeup is very delicate and feminine, but holds power at the same time. The story takes place during the 1920′s, but in this modern film version of The Great Gatsby, the makeup does not take on the particular extreme-retro look that was seen in this era of the ‘20s.

I know that E=mc2 but does AA + BB = CC? Well, not exactly. To me, CC creams are lighter in weight and texture, and truly were meant as color correctors. My skin has never felt so supple before! Sometimes, I glance at my soon-to-be forty-four-year-old skin in the mirror and am pleased at the results of what taking better care of my skin looks like.
Over the past year, I have reviewed several anti-aging creams, as well as many Beauty Balms, and, as of late, everywhere I look there are CC …
