There are only a handful of days left to go until Valentine's Day this Sunday. If you haven't gotten your significant someone, friends or family a gift yet, a beauty trinket always does the job. These gifts aren't crazy expensive, but they say I love you in a very special way.

Lucky FabSugar UK and I were able to get backstage after the 2010 Spring Paul Costelloe Fashion Show at the BFC Tent on Friday morning. As it was the first show at London Fashion Week, it kind of felt like the first day of school with people wandering around the new (and might I add beautiful) new Somerset House vast location.
The tents look relatively the same, however the backstage area is far more spacious which is great for primping.

For those of you who don't know, October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. In past years, oodles of beauty brands have banded together and have put the pink ribbon across one of their signature best-selling products whose profits will propel breast cancer research or help raise awareness about the disease that effects so many women.
For example, Essie has released a nail varnish called Future Dreams (£9.95) where all of the proceeds will go to Breakthrough Breast Cancer.

Last night at the TCA AMC cocktail reception in California, actress January Jones arrived in a cutesy black-bow frock with her hair styled in a chic coif and perfectly flawless makeup. January always looks amazing, but I like how her makeup isn't too overdone here. With some filler on her brows, a dewy base, a touch of black liner, mascara and finally a tomato red lipstick, this siren makes getting red carpet ready look as easy as pie!

Just a few days ago I was introduced to my new lip obsession from Clinique called Vitamin C Lip Smoothie Antioxidant Lip Colour (£13.50). I've been using fig-a-licious, a medium rosey-berry hue with silver gitter particles. It's just about one shade deeper than my natural lip colour, so it gives me a perfectly fresh, minimalist makeup look when paired with two coats of black mascara and some blusher.

Despite the torrential rains at last night's UK Harry Potter Premiere, Emma Watson glowed like a sparkling ray of sunshine. She stood under an over-sized translucent brolly wearing a vintage Ossie Clarke gown and minimal jewels. She was smart to wear her hair up (get her hairstyle here) to avoid frizz, however, her makeup remained in tact all evening long.

Clinique has just launched its range of sun care products for Spring and Summer 2009. The first collection, Cinique Sun with Solar Smart includes seven oil-free and sweat-resistant products designed to protect the skin from both UVA (the sun rays that cause early signs of aging) and UVB (the rays burn your skin) without clogging your pores. They come in bright, sunny yellow packaging with a hefty quantity that makes it well worth the splurge.

Inside of the clear oval bottle adorned with pink, orange and yellow water-colour florals, is a sparkling, sweet, fluid and clean scent.
