It’s no secret that my heart belongs to Chanel Sublimage Essential Regenerating Cream. I named it as my top product of 2007 and remain completely enamored with its ability to transform my skin.

Now, dear Makeup Bag readers, my favorite anti-aging cream has a partner in crime: SUBLIMAGE SERUM Essential Regenerating Concentrate.

With two times the Planifolia PFA of the cream along with the ultra-rich Planifolia concentrated water, this powerful serum delivers serious anti-aging benefits. Paired with the Sublimage Essential Regenerating Cream, my skin is beyond rejuvenized.

However, let me warn you, one must be serious about their anti-aging regimen to consider this product. At $385 per ounce, it’s no bargain. (Unless, of course, you’re married to a tycoon or are willing to pay any price for radiant, youthful, even toned skin.)

CHANEL SUBLIMAGE SERUM Essential Regenerating Concentrate is currently available at select department stores and online at Chanel.com.

Haha- that headline caught your eye, right?

Over the long weekend I was in San Jose, California playing in a volleyball tournament. If you’ve never been to a girl’s volleyball tournament, let me describe it for you: more than 1,500 sweaty girls (many of whom wear the same pair of socks for the duration) packed into a sweaty convention center for three long, sweaty days. Kinda gross.

Lucky for me, I thought ahead and came prepared.

(Just kidding, my mom packed for me.)

The standout products of the weekend (aside from clean socks):

• Herbal Essences Long Term Relationship Shampoo & Conditioner These leave my hair super clean and soft and they smell soooo yummy. It was my dirty hair’s dream come true. (Also, they’re only $3 per bottle—score!)
• Secret Clinical Strength Anti-Perspirant/Deodorant When you’re on the court for hours on end, playing game after game (one day I played TWELVE games) you need some super-strength anti-perspirant. Secret Clinical Strength is the number one selling wetness protection deodorant and it totally works. (If only I could smear it across my brow to keep my forehead from sweating!)

All in all, the weekend was fun. Out of 171 16-year-old teams, my team placed 27th!

Until next week—xoxoxo,

Bree

Just last month Lancôme announced Anne Hathaway as their newest spokesmodel and she’s already hard at work for the brand.

Three days ago, Hathaway was spotted in Paris at Petit Palais, a beloved Paris museum, shooting a Lancôme fragrance commercial. This commercial, scheduled to air in the fall, was directed by renowned fashion photographer Peter Lindbergh.

Lindbergh has directed several fragrance ads, including this one here with Sophie Marceau for Guerlain:

We can’t wait to see how the Lancôme commercial with Anne Hathaway turns out!
