Teen Corner: Hilary Duff on Gossip Girl

hillary-duff-on-gossip-girl

Hilary Duff is going to make her debut on Gossip Girl tonight and I can’t wait!

I’m loving her easy blonde waves in this picture. Totally NOT hat hair. Hahaha!!

I’m hoping to see more of Vanessa this season. Vanessa is definitely my fave Gossip Girl character—she’s so gorgeous and always has perfect makeup!

And, I don’t know about Serena. I mean, I understand she wants to get her dad’s attention and all but WHERE IS THE STORY LINE GOING?

Guess I’ll have to wait and find out!

Beginning this month, Bobbi Brown is featuring a new lip formula called Rich Color Gloss.

With the benefit of three products in one, Rich Color Gloss brings the full color coverage of lipstick, the soft shine of  lip gloss and the smooth feel of lip balm.

But you want to know what I’m most excited about? A SPONGE TIP APPLICATOR!!

That’s right, my friends, after all these years Bobbi has finally heeded my call for a better lip gloss applicator than the rough, stiff brush currently offered.

I can’t even stand it!

Here’s the available colors:

  • Naked
  • Ruby Red
  • Pink Raspberry
  • Merlot
  • Dusty Rose
  • Melon
  • Tutu
  • Pink Buff

Bobbi Brown Rich Color Gloss ($20) is currently available at all Bobbi Brown counters and online at bobbibrown.com.

Symphonie Blanche de Chanel

Peter Philips, global creative makeup director for CHANEL, created the “ultimate nude” for the CHANEL Spring/Summer 2009 Haute Couture fashion show and now he’s created an entire collection to capture the same spirit: Symphonie Blanche de CHANEL.

In this collection is a highlighting powder called Fle ur Celeste (which means “flowers of the sky”) that has been embossed with white flowers over a soft pink and beige powder. This can be used on the face and décolleté.

Also in this collection is a new Quadra Eye Shadow called White Whisper. This eye shadow quad includes a dark silver eye shadow and three various colors of pigment over a white base tone: silver pink, pearly white and light gold.

And let’s not forget the Blanc Petal Le Vernis Nail Colour that I showed you last week.

CHANEL Symphonie Blanche de Chanel is available for a limited time exclusively at CHANEL boutiques, CHANEL Makeup Studios, Neiman Marcus, Bergdorf Goodman and online at CHANEL.com.

Bobbi Brown Black Fawn Collection

bobbi-brown-black-fawn-collection
While Bobbi Brown has all but eliminated the need for palettes with her refillable palette system, I still get a bit giddy when a new one is released.

This particular offering is absolutely stunning, no? The colors are gorgeous, but here’s the best part: Pot Rouge is included in this palette for the first time ever, which is truly thrilling for devotees like me who have been DYING to add the product to our personal palettes.

It also also houses a Shimmer Lip Gloss, two shades of eye shadow and three mini brushes all wrapped up in a chrome faux-leather organizer.

Bobbi Brown Black Fawn Collection is available exclusively at Saks Fifth Avenue for $100.
