M∙A∙C VIVA GLAM 2015: Miley Cyrus.

MAC Cosmetics made a huge announcement yesterday as they do every fall when they name their newest VIVA GLAM spokesperson. I love the Viva Glam campaign and the lipsticks and lipglasses - they are collectors items for me. I love what the campaign represents. You see, the Viva Glam campaign and products raise money for the MAC Aids fund, where every cent of the products sold goes directly to the fund. It is a very imortant cause and I loudly applaud MAC for their efforts.

Since 1994 and Viva Glam I, there have been Viva Glam spokespeople. Do you know who all of the MAC Viva Glam spokespeople have been? Ru Paul, KD Lang, Mary J. Blige, Lil' Kim, Sir Elton John, Mary J. Blige, Shirley Manson, Christina Aguilera, Eve, Fergie, Lady Gaga, Cyndi Lauper, Ricky Martin, Nicki Minaj and Rihanna. That leaves us with the newest spokesperson for MAC Viva Galm whom begins her reign in 2015, and that is Miley Cyrus.

Introducing Nudestix.

If there is one makeup look that is here to stay, it is the nude makeup look. The neutral look can be worn by anyone and everyone and it will be for years. On the runways this year, the "no makeup makeup look" was a huge trend and getting that look is not as easy as it looks - unless you have the right products. There is a new brand that called Nudestix that has the tagline Go Nude, But Better. It is a really fun line and it is a bit different too; all of the products are nude based and you guessed it - they come in stick form.

Go Confidently with Jolen Creme Bleach.

Managing your extra body and facial hair is an ongoing process. There are just some places on face that I cannot wax or shave and need other options. What do I do? I lighten my hair and have been a long time fan of Jolen Creme Bleach for lightening my hair above my lip and I want to let you know how easy it is.

Jolen Creme Bleach, the first cream bleach available, lightens noticeable hair easily and gently, making it virtually invisible. I only need to use it every three or four months and it lightens my facial hair quickly and safely with ease. Jolen Creme Bleach comes in an original formula as well as a sensitive formula with Aloe Vera, which is ideal for use on sensitive, more delicate skin, which I have.

Jolen Creme Bleach is a highly recognized and trusted brand, often passed down from mother to daughter for generations and I have personally used it for years. I originally started using it as a hair lightener, believe it or not, after watching my Mom use it when she was in her 30's. I used it right in the front of my hair for brush on sun-kissed highlights. The brand has history!

Jolen is celebrating 50 years in the beauty aisle with a giveaway. Now through November 14, 2014, enter the Jolen 50th Giveaway for a chance to win $50 gift cards to Jolen retailers, as well as Jolen Creme Bleach product. More than 50 winners! #GoConfidently. To enter, visit http://bit.ly/1uW7JwJ.

MAC Brooke Shields Collection.

When I saw that MAC Cosmetics was creating a collection with Brooke Shields I was MORE than I excited. I men, Brooke Shields is an icon in my mind. The child model turned actress is a model from *my* time. We are of similar age and I have just always identified with her. Her look has been timeless, just as is the MAC Brooke Shields collaboration.

"M∙A∙C partners with Brooke Shields to create a limited-edition colour collection of shades and finishes chosen by Brooke herself, inspired by her own favourite looks for day and night – easy, modern and beautiful. This limited-edition Beauty Icon collection is made all the more special with Brooke’s signature embossed on light grey packaging with brilliant orange accents."

Cult Classic: Clinique A Black Honey Affair.

In 1971, Clinique created a phenomenon when they introduced the iconic shade we have all come to know and love - Black Honey. The Clinique Glosswear for Lips in the barely there deep, blackened raisin hue shade for lips was an instant success. Nearly 20 years later, the brand released the Black Honey shade as an Almost Lipstick and a new cult classic was born. This shade continues to be an inspiration in a brand new limited edition palette called A Black Honey Affair. This All About Shadow octect (that's a shadow palette with 8 eyeshadows) is one you need to see and will want for the season.
