From Me To You
This fall grown-up glamour has given way to back-to-school, metal studs, naval looks with plenty of gold regalia, cubist style prints, tough metal jackets and armor-inspired accessories. In truth, none of these thrill me. These are the kinds of looks the fashion editors will look back on a year from now and publicly admit that they�re glad we�re out of that stage! Her for example is some advice from Elle: �Assemble a look that�s one part Peace Corps volunteer and one part jet-set chic with a brash mix of ethnic prints and just-off-the-runway pieces.� Huh?
Here, however, are some things you can do to update your look without looking like a Martian.
Stick with a primary-color palette and mix in geometric patterns and hints of gray. Tartans are back on miniskirts and bomber jackets. After decades of feeling as if everyone was looking at your if you wore tights with strappy sandls. Now it�s OK to put the two together - opaque or sheer. Oversize Fair Isle sweaters are making big news. Wear them over pants, shorts, a white blouse. Fasionistas recommend pairing them with tiny tweeds and a flash of hot pink. Hats are back. (Now That I like.) Fedoras, floppy hats and cloche really finish off a look.
Good Luck with it all! There is one thing that�s very wearable this fall, and that�s our New Collection.
2007 Fall Collection
I�ve always loved The Beatles. Their music can take me from smiles to tears in 30 seconds flat. Their lyrics stir something deep in my heart. I love the way their Liverpool accents enhance the music. I love the way you can actually hear the words and sing along with them. So when I heard that it was Paul McCartney�s 65th birthday, it inspired me to call our beautiful new Fall Collection the title of the first single he wrote with John Lennon in 1963. It inspired me because I�ve been working on this collection for a long time so I could bring you something special and different. In every sense, these new products and colors really are from me to you! |
Lips
Sugar & Butter named for the organic brown sugar in the new lip exfoliator and the shea butter in our new lip plumper. Exfoliating lips was never like this - a tingling pleasure that leaves the lips feeling smooth and refreshed. Then lick your lips and taste the delicious nutty flavor of the sugar crystals.
And that�s not all, flick the tube and caress your lips with our new plumper. Based on special peptides that have been shown to increase hydration and stimulate collagen, it also works with ginger and mint to create an instant plumping that fills fine lines and helps to eliminate feathering. I promise your lips have never felt like this before.
The subtle pink of the plumper can be worn alone or under or over an additional lip color. I love to wear it over a neutral pencil like Terra-Cotta.
Cheeks
In Touch makes cheeks look exactly the way they should this season - a sexy glow that shines from inside out. Experiment - wear these three new stick blushes under your mineral powder for blush that doesn�t look like blush but looks like you. Or wear them over your minerals for a more vibrant cheek. Since these three blushes taste like chocolate, you won�t be able to resist putting them on your lips!
Eyes
You�ve been asking for a wine colored Cream to Powder Eyeliner, so here it is. It�s not only one of the most versatile liners you will ever use but also one of the most beautiful shadows. Our Camouflage Brush is your best friend with this glamorous product.
And if that isn�t enough, for this season�s metallics try our new Copper Liquid Eye Liner that finishes off any eye makeup with a sheen that compliments any color.
Everywhere!
The sister to Moonglow is our new Sunbeam. Four beautiful shades of pink/silver that look gorgeous wherever you put them. You could do a full makeup with just this alone! Wear it on eyes, on the apple of the cheeks and on lips. (Sweep the lip plumper on top.) A really sensational look for day or evening!
International News
I just came back from a trip to Moscow where Bob and I opened up our new distributorship. It was my first time in Russia and so I was amazed at the huge scale of everything including the Kremlin, which is very beautiful. So are the women, by the way. Now I�m beginning to understand why so man of our top models are Russian.
The Guild of Professional Beauty in the UK just rated us as the number one makeup brand in the professional industry there. All thanks to our hard-working distributor, David Alpert.
Kevin Mendelson, our gifted national trainer, was invited to New Zealand and Australia to show off his talents. He was a huge success. We�re now in 43 countries and counting. Have a wonderful fall.
Did You Know That...?
A tip for applying flawless liquid liner is to draw the shape first with a black eye pencil so you may easily clean up mistakes and make the line perfect. Then trace over it with the liquid liner.
Water fluoridation has been officially banned in Austria, Luxembourg, the NEtherlands, Spain, Switzerland, West Germany and Yugoslavia. The FDA classifies fluoride as a prescription drug and a poison more toxic than lead. The United States Pharmacopoeia and the Physicians' Desk Reference report numerous side effects caused by fluoride including headaches, nausea, vomiting, gastric distress, skin eruptions, weakness, pain or aching of bones, mottled teeth and thyroid disorders. Could fluoride be the next tobacco?
