Would You Buy a Product Because it was Backed by Science?
There’s no doubt that there are some great beauty products out there, that deliver on their promises of youth, softer skin and reduced wrinkles. However, for every one of these, there’s another much hyped potion that fails to live up to its claims. Now cosmetics companies are going the extra mile to convince us their beauty products work.
Halloween How To: Luella Teen Zombie
Channel your inner evil teen this Halloween by taking your lead from the catwalk. Le Freak has never been so chic with models sporting black lipstick, pale skin, zombie eyes and crimped hair at the Autumn/Winter shows this season. Take note though, this look is not about being pretty or glamorous, if that's more your bag then try a cat beauty style instead.
New Product Alert: Boots Rainbow Eyes
The bright lights bold colour trend that was so hot this summer looks set to continue well into winter with the stormy purples and bold blue shades on the catwalks this season. Celebrities like Sophie Ellis-Bextor have been working the look, sporting rainbow-hued eye makeup and look-at-me lashes. While I'm a huge fan of MAC for ultra bold colours, their shadows can be expensive so I was thrilled to learn about the new Front Cover Rainbow Eyes kit from Boots.

Pop sensation Kylie Minogue rivals Madonna with her penchant for transformation, whether she's showgirl glamorous or demure and ladylike. Beauty wise she always looks gorgeous, partly due to her wide smile but also because of her glowing skin and huge eyes.

Gok Wan Releases a Beauty Range For Boots
No silly, Gok Wan isn't designing his own collection of boots, the British television presenter and stylist has recently launched his first ever beauty range for Boots (you know, the chemist chain) called Gorgeous by Gok. I've seen the goodies which have been broken down into seven regimes according to how much time (10, 15, 20 or 60 minutes) you have to pamper yourself. Not only are they pink and purple and fabulous, but they're available now at affordable prices, which makes them great gifts to stash away for the Christmas season.
Trend Alert: The Scunchie Returns
When Carrie criticised Jack Berger in Sex and The City, season six, for giving his novel's leading lady a hair scrunchie, she was talking for all of us.
