I just had a chance to try a sample of the windows to the soul palettes from philosophy. The colors are very vibrant and with my eyeshadow base stayed put all day. With the range of shades its easy to create a day or night look or bring the palette with you and with a few sweeps turn your day to a night look.  The palette also has a great slate eyeliner color, and a double ended brush for easy application.

So I have been using Wen Cleansing Conditioner for over a week now and I am kind of on the fence about it.

What I like:

It smells and feel great on my hair

My hair is soft and touchable smooth all day.

What I don’t like:

A  minimum of 16 pumps per application the product  goes pretty quick for the ticket price doesn’t last long.

My hair does feel nice but doesn’t look anything like the silky strands shown on the infomercial.

Final verdict it’s a nice shampoo but for my hair type I probably wouldn’t purchase it again.

Between filming Keeping Up The Kardashians, promoting her expanding fashion and beauty empire, and dealing with the ever-present paparazzi, Kim Kardashian rarely steps out of the house without a full face of a makeup on. “Makeup is my life,” Kim tells Allure in its September issue. In fact, when Kim was just 14, her father enrolled her in beauty school “to learn how to apply makeup properly, so I wouldn’t have too much on or look crazy.” Her secrets to a flawless face start underneath her favorite Make Up For Ever HD Foundation and Powder. “I use PerfectSkin, the system my sisters and I had a dermatologist make for us [and] for body moisturizer, I love Johnson’s Baby Lotion,” Kim tells the publication about her high-low beauty routine. And while the sexy star is a seasoned pro when it comes to touching up her face, she leaves the taming of her tresses to the professionals. “Anytime you see [my hair] in a ponytail, you know I did it,” Kim quips. And her head isn’t the only place that her raven hair seems to get in the way. “I am Armenian, so of course I am obsessed with laser hair removal!” she says. “Arms, bikini, legs, underarms…my entire body is hairless.” To hear more from Kim, pick up Allure‘s September issue, or visit Allure.com to see additional photos from Kim’s cover shoot.

Parlux Fragrances Inc. is launching two new celebrity fragrances this summer from Jessica Simpson and Paris Hilton. Simpson’s Fancy Nights apparently shows off her romantic side, while Hilton’s tenth fragrance, Tease, based on her love of Marilyn Monroe, is “much more evocative of who Paris Hilton is.”

Jessica Simpson says her new fragrance, Fancy Nights, is ”provocative” and the perfect scent to wear on an evening out.

The singer-and-actress is releasing her third scent, entitled Fancy Nights, and says it is the perfect perfume to wear on an evening out.

The spicy scent includes warm notes of bergamot and Egyptian papyrus blended with Indonesian patchouli, Bulgarian red rose and night-blooming jasmine and Jessica believes it showcases a different side to her personality.

She told People magazine: “A fragrance can lead you deeper into a mood. Fancy Nights gives me the chance to express a more romantic side of my personality.”

The 29-year-old beauty’s last fragrance, Fancy Love, was inspired by being in a romantic relationship.

Vince Camuto – CEO and founder of the Camuto Group, which holds the global license for all Jessica’s brands – said: “Jessica loves the feeling of being in love, she is a romantic girl. The fragrance was inspired by love. And she’s inspired by love.”

While she was dating ex-boyfriend Tony Romo – who she split with last year – Jessica revealed she wanted to pay tribute to her relationship by launching a perfume.

She said: “Romance has never been more important to me so I wanted to celebrate that special feeling with this new fragrance.”

Jessica’s debut scent, Fancy, was released in 2008.
