Getting Ready for Winter with Vogue

The obsession with YouTube is non stop...

Follow the Leader...-er, I mean Model. J Alexander "Follow the Model" Book Launch

I AM DYIINNGGGG over on this side of Brooklyn!

My days of obsessing over America's Next Top Model have taught me one thing. YOU'VE GOT TO MAKE YOUR PRESENCE KNOWN, HONEY!!! If there's one person on that entire show who does that best, it would hands down be Miss J Alexander.


you betta work!

Now the Runway Diva Extraordinaire has written a guide and poured all of his wisdom for us to read.

Follow the Model, Miss J’s Guide to Unleashing Presence, Poise and Power is the new book by J Alexander in which he dispenses advice on how to live the Miss J way- fully and fabulously.



Not everyone is born to be a supermodel, but every woman can acquire confidence, self-esteem, and the determination to realize her dreams. From being comfortable in your own body to the decisive power of one's attitude to how to walk proud in the highest heel shoes, FOLLOW THE MODEL offers tough love with a lot of heart from a truly one-of-a-kind mentor.

Join him on November 10th for the launch of this new must read!!!! Here are the deets:

WHEN: November 10th 2009
WHERE: Barnes and Noble, 97 Warren Street, New York City, 7PM

I'm rearranging my plans as we speak in an attempt to make my way down to Tribeca for this! 

Rub Proof Eyeliner...for real this time. Lancome Artliner got you covered!

With all of the eye rubbing action that goes on throughout my day, eye makeup is pretty much a dead end for me. But being the makeup junkie that I am, I insist on wearing eyeliner and mascara (sometimes even going the full monty with some-or a lot- eyeshadow).

I love my eyeliners- all 15 of them- but they often disappear or smudge by midday. When it was recommended I try Lancôme’s Artliner I became interested as we already know of my love for their gel artliner. No clue what I'm talking about? Check out my review here.

Something to Write Home About...



Girls, I am not lying when I say this stuff is amazing! Where has this been all my life?! (Actually, I know...my eyes probably glaze over it due to the $28 price tag. Ouch!)

That aside, this is one of the best liquid liners I've tried in a long time. My oily lids know what time it is when I whip this baby out!



It has a uniquely shaped foam tip that allows for easy application and precision that's non pareil. It allows me to draw the line as thick or thin as I want- depending on the look I'm going for. The tip isn't harsh so there's no scratching, tugging or skipping going on. The colors are rich and intensely pigmented (the color above is Blueberry and I am officially obsessed). It did not smudge all day and did not irritate my sensitive eyes.

Color me impressed Lancôme! An eyeliner that lasts all day used to be somewhat of a beauty myth- right there with a foundation that doesn't rub off and lipstick that lasts all day. Ha! But in all seriousness, this stuff works, just ask the gals over at Makeup Alley (it got a 4.4 out 5!)

Check Me Out on Dr. Miracle's Blog!!

What'ssss upppp!

I just wanted to pop in really quickly and let you all know that I've been featured on Dr. Miracle's Blog.

Holla!


Thanks so much to the girls over at Dr. Miracle's!!! Check out the full interview here.

L'Oreal Telescopic Explosion Mascara

The newest mascara to join the L’Oreal mascara clan is Telescopic Explosion Mascara*. It's the first mascara in the mass market with a spherical brush, however, it's bascially a affordable version of Givenchy's Phenomen'Eyes.



Now, I'll be the first to admit...I was afraid of this bad boy! I'm somewhat of a traditionalist and I like my makeup a certain way. But if I could give a vibrating mascara a go, than one with a ball for a wand should be a piece of cake.



The spherical brush allows the possibility of applying mascara at every angle possible, even those hard to reach inner corner lashes. I really really love this mascara when I'm searching for length. volume...not so much. It does reach the inner corners (thank the Lord!) but it takes some getting used to when first applying. The clumping on this needs to stop. I don't know what it is or perhaps it's the way I'm applying it, but I find that two coats clumps and three is just an assault on your eyelashes.

For about $10, I would definitely recommend this mascara if you are looking for length. If yo're like me and want length as well as volume this may not work. I haven't tried Givenchy's Phenomen'Eyes so I can't give a comparison. In terms of pricing, however, clearly Telescopic Explosion is a winner.

*I bought this mascara
