I am loving the new Metro Chic collection by Mary Kay,  the polish goes on like a dream. I have been a little polished obsessed lately and the purple Intensity shade is gorgeous! The silver color is a bit too metallic for my general taste but I did find someone using it as a french tip with the purple that I now have to try.

I am also using the Mary Kay base/top coat to increase the wearing time of my polish and its adds a great shine, and gives me a good day or two extra before I have sever chipping issues.

Glee’s Lea Michele is on the cover on the latest Marie Claire UK. She’s adorable!

Lea Michele on her infamous nose

Don’t you get annoyed when the writers poke fun at the size of your nose, then?

‘I see that happening on other shows and you’ve got to laugh,’ she answers earnestly, then adds, ‘but when they always talk about my boobs being too small I’m like, OK, if we’re going to talk about this then let’s be real! Rachel does not have the smallest boobs in the club, although that wouldn’t be a problem if she did, but they keep saying that she does, and I’m like, “It’s not true!”. I mean, they’re not big, but they always talk about how small they are. But they always say I have a great butt, which I really do like.’

Lea Michele on her tattoos

‘What about your tattoos? She has nine, each chronicling a significant milestone in her life. The first was a butterfly, on her back, at 16. There’s one for Spring Awakening, another, Imagine, after the John Lennon song, a gold star for Rachel Berry. Still, she’s quick to remind me: ‘I don’t have like a kiss on my butt or anything! They’re all tiny. I mean, you saw me in the shoot today, I was practically nude. Did you see any? No. I’m telling you, I have nine. All so, so, so little.’ So what’s the next tattoo? ‘I’ve been thinking about it for a while and my poor boyfriend… I’m always like, “What shall I do next?” And he’s like, “I don’t know!’’’ She shares the butterfly tattoo with her mum. ‘I think I tricked her into thinking it was a bonding thing, which it was, but she says it was the worst trick of her life. But my mum is the best because I can sit and talk to her about what tattoo to have next.’ So this is your vice, I say. ‘Yes! There you go – thank you! I’m also an avid coffee drinker and an obsessive talker.’

That was a lot of Eva’s in one title.

Anyway, another celebrity is launching their own fragrance. You might be hard pressed to find a celebrity who actually doesn’t sell their own fragrance. My question is – how many of you out there buy celebrity fragrances? Ok, I’m not going to lie, perfumes are not something I spend money on. Every couple of years I’ll get one as a present, and that’ll last me. I am allergic to most perfumes, so it has to be very light for me to wear it.

Have you ever bought a celeb fragrance? If so – which one? Did you like it?

Eva Longoria visited Toronto to launch her new fragrance, “Eva by Eva Longoria”. The starlet and newly-crowned perfumer, met with fans and handed out goodie bags containing her signature scent.

I am not going to lie, I love Gossip Girl I know I’m probably double the age of the target audience but its my guilty pleasure.  I have been noticing how flawless Leighton Meester’s (Blair Waldorf) skin is and wondered what she uses. Well it’s non other than La-Roche Posay the few things I have tried from the line I have loved and now I have something new to try, the Toleraine products. Now how to get my hands on a wardrobe like Blair Waldorf.

From Glamour to Marie Claire, Leighton Meester is spilling her beauty secrets. Leighton, who is known for her gorgeous skin, clues readers in on how to achieve complexion perfection. The key: this Gossip Gal uses La Roche-Posay’s Toleriane line.

The actress starts her day by grabbing her go-to face cream, La Roche-Posay Toleriane Riche Moisturizer, which she feels is “really gentle stuff.” After a long day of filming on the streets of NYC, she needs to rid her skin of all impurities; Leighton prides herself on going to bed with a fresh face. She says, “I’m really good about taking off all my makeup.” She uses Toleraine Dermo Cleanser, a light, smooth, and lotion-like cleanser that gently removes her makeup and additional residue — it’s no wonder she always looks camera ready.

Now if only there was a product that could help Blair Waldorf clean up her act!

La Roche-Posay is available at CVS Pharmacy, LaRoche-Posay.us, and Skinstore.com
