And you thought models didn't eat...






The Aveda hair people were amazing to watch.
They created silky, sexy styles for the models.


Bobbi's Secret Weapon

During fashion week I had a very nice conversation with beauty guru Bobbi Brown.

I'd like to say a few things about this Montclair-based mom of three.
Bobbi, I loved your Helen Ficalora necklace. Great choice.

Now, I just wanted to say thanks for your wonderful beauty books.
Your books encourage women to celebrate their beauty.
That's a wise gift for readers of all ages.

Now to the beauty biz.

When I asked Bobbi how her models looked so dewy ... during the harsh winter ... she told me she used a little face oil on their faces.

Oil?

Yep.

Bobbi explained to me that a few drops helps the skin stay moisturized and fresh. It also keeps the makeup from caking up.

Thanks for the tip, Bobbi! Keep 'em coming.

CEW Beauty Product Demonstration

I had the awesome opportunity to attend the CEW beauty product demonstration last week. I came as a volunteer and left with $1,000 worth of product.
I tried a variety of grooming products.

Here's a brief list:

1. Oscar Blandi dry shampoo
2. The Lip Scrub by Sarah Rapp
3. Kinerase face cream -- professional grade
4. Vera Wang Princess
5. Perlier -- Hemp with Rosemary Oil body cream

The funny thing is ... my favorite discovery was something so simple.

Clean and Clear has created a spot treatment for pimples that creates a layer over the zit. Think of it like a protective layer. So simple ... so necessary for people who pick!
