MAC signs Lady Gaga again!

MAC Cosmetics has signed Lady Gaga on for a second year as the spokeswoman for its Viva Glam campaign. Gaga teamed up with Cyndi Lauper for the 2010 campaign, which launched earlier this year. The company said the Gaga-Lauper campaign was the most successful ever for the MAC AIDS Fund, which has raised more than $190 million for the cause since its founding in 1994. For her solo turn in 2011, Gaga was shot by Nick Knight and styled by Nicola Formichetti.

Erin’s Christmas Must-Have, Number 6

Give the gift of Clean!

I had heard how great the Clean fragrance line was but had never tried it. Yesterday a magical Fed Ex fairy delivered some to my door and I couldn’t wait to try it out. I was too impatient to wait and sprayed one squirt of each of the four scents on different parts of my arm.

They are all so amazing, I can’t tell which scent I like best. Running errands last night and I couldn’t stop smelling my arms (I’m sure some people were concerned for my mental health). I am wearing it again today and it smells simply amazing so clean and fresh I am in love! If you can manage to pry these scents out of your hands they would make an excellent gift!

    Jocelyn’s Christmas Must-Have Number 6!

    For whatever reason, over the last year – my nails went from being strong and healthy to weak and brittle. I upped my vitamins, and headed to Target to find a solution for my unhealthy nails! I went straight for the Sally Hansen Complete Care line. I zeroed in on Complete Care Extra Moisturizing 4-IN-1 Treatment, which is a little miracle in a bottle! It fills the ridges, strengthens, improves growth and has a beautiful glossy shine!

    I have used it both on it’s own, and as a base/top coat. I absolutely LOVE this product. It’s a bit on the spendy side (around $10) but it’s absolutely worth it. My nails stopped splitting and cracking, and they’ve been noticeably stronger!

    This makes my Christmas Must-Have list because it’s such a great product. At around $10 – it would make the perfect stocking stuffer!


    An additional perk is when you use it as a base/top coat, your polish lasts so much longer! I can wear fingernail polish for a week now before it starts chipping, and that’s quite a feat! This product makes fingernail polish last longer!

    Complete Care Extra Moisturizing has everything that Complete Care Original has to offer PLUS an enriched complex of Avocado Oil and plant extracts that help hydrate, condition and restore flexibility to dry brittle nails. MORE! More »
