The Beauty Editor Commandments

From Confessions of a Beauty Addict, we bring you The Beauty Editor Commandments:

  1. Never wash hair two days in a row.
  2. Always wear SPF 30 sunscreen, come rain or shine, winter or summer.
  3. Wash your face every night before bed... even when drunk... even when tired.
  4. French manicures are not an option.
  5. Everybody looks better with a hint of bronzer or self-tanner.
  6. Avoid frowning -- just like your mom said, your face will stick that way.
  7. Don't smoke -- it causes wrinkles, sallow, uneven skin, and yellow teeth (oh, yeah, and theat whole cancer thing, too).
  8. Introduce acids into your daily routine -- glycolic, salicylic, retinoic, whatever. Your skin will thank you.
  9. Antioxidants are your best friend. Eat them, drink them, wear them, live them.
  10. Smile. When you carry yourself beautiful, you are beautiful.

Bobbi Brown backstage beauty at NY Fashion Week 2009

I want one of the Bobbi Brown look bags for Rachel Roy... Lucy Halperin did a similar lip for London Grad Fashion Week last year. It's an amazing colour... and I'm relieved to see that my new favourite Revlon Black Cherry and Lipstick Queen Black Shine are on trend for yet another fall season... after all, time to make do and mend (or just not splurge) even with the make up... recycle old looks and save yourself a few bucks. In any even, that wraps up our NY Fashion Week covarge, with London Fashion Week to start imminently.

Food voyeur... see what a model eats

 


NY Mag's Grub Street followed around model Heather Marks and chronicled a week of her eating habits. Wanna know if she eats more than just cotton balls and water? She does. Read on to see what the skinny ones live on. Probably not cheese. Oh, how I love cheese... and my figure. Funny that. Read about a week of food fit for a model.
