gallery_enlarged-kim-kardashian.jpg

Kim Kardashian took to her website to announce the launch of her new fragrance, named after herself.

The fragrance is now officially listed exclusively on Sephora’s website! It is available in two large sizes, perfect for your dresser, a ‘to go’ bottle that fits easily into your purse, and a rollerball! You can’t buy it until Feb, but if you sign up on their website you can get an email alert when it becomes available!

This was one of the most exciting projects I’ve been involved in because I got to be so hands on every step of the process from choosing scents, to designing the bottle and the accent features. You guys even helped me pick the pink bottle accents that really make the black bottle pop!

More exciting news to come surrounding the fragrance launch so stay tuned! :)

I’m not into celebrity fragrances (I won’t ever purchase a celeb fragrance, call me crazy) but if you are – you can go here to pre-order from Sephora!

Kim Kardashian drives me nuts. She is EVERYWHERE right now. Too overexposed, if you ask me!

Better before or after?

Nicole Richie has been sporting new brunette locks this winter. I love the color I think it really flatters her skin tone. Though she does look a little like a morph between J Lo and Mischa Barton.

What do you think of her new locks are you a fan of the beach blonde or brunette?

Pretty Pink Makeup
GET THE LOOK: “This look works best for anyone who wants something classic with a bit of girly simplicity,” says Sephora Pro Beauty Team expert Sara Biria. “These rich pink hues brighten Scarlett Johansson’s face. To get it right, cheeks, eyes, and lips should be balanced and even, so that one feature does not overpower another.”
INSIDER TRICK: Biria suggests using a multi-tasking pinkish brownish cream that works for lips and cheeks, like Stila Convertible Color in Peony. Sweep a fingertip over the surface of the product, then dab and blend to apply color.

The Best-Selling Celebrity Fragrance of All Time!

Sean “Diddy” Combs may have a hit with his latest fragrance, I Am King (it sold out in 16 minutes on HSN last week) but he has yet to rule the celebrity fragrance market here in America.

According to the research whizzes over at Chicago-headquartered Euromonitor International, the venerable Liz Taylor still leads the pack in U.S. fragrance sales, bagging $67.2 million in 2008 for her White Diamonds scent, first released in 1991 by Elizabeth Arden. (Diddy trailed Taylor by nearly $20 million, with 2008 sales of $48.5 million.)

Other scent-sations include Sarah Jessica Parker’s Lovely, Derek Jeter Driven and Glo by J.Lo. Any surprises? Well, the polarizing Celine Dion ranked third, inching out SJP by a little less than $1 million. And, somewhat puzzlingly, Antonio Banderas made the cologne cut, too.

1. Elizabeth Taylor White Diamonds –$67.2 million
2. Sean John Unforgivable — $48.5 million
3. Celine Dion — $26.4 million
4. Lovely by Sarah Jessica Parker — $25.7 million
5. Derek Jeter Driven — $24.1 million
6. Diavolo by Antonio Banderas — $18.8 million
7. Glo by J.Lo — 18.5
8. Curious by Britney Spears — $14.3
9. Fantasy by Britney Spears — $10.1 million

InStyle’s Daily Beauty Tip!

Recently at the launch of her new fragrance, In Bloom by Reese Witherspoon, the star decided that when it came to her makeup, less was more. To go the low maintenance route, skip foundation, add just a touch of liquid highlighter on your forehead and cheekbones, and shade the apples of your cheeks with rosy blush. If you feel strange with totally bare eyes, dab mellow gold shadow around your lids for a little extra light.

Reese is beautiful with little makeup on. She looks great in InStyle’s November issue!

Sarah Jessica Parker’s B.O. inspired fragrance!

sarah_jessica_parkerbo.jpg

This picture really has nothing to do with this article, I just think it’s a really funny picture of Sarah Jessica Parker (if it’s even a legit picture of her…her head does look funny). Okay – back to my post.

Sarah Jessica Parker has taken inspiration for her new fragrance from body odor.

The Sex & The City star has already made her mark in the perfume world with her signature Lovely scent and now she’s working on a top secret follow-up for 2010.

And the idea behind the fragrance is to make it smell just like B.O.

She tells WENN, “I’m working on a new genderless fragrance that’s not out yet. I can’t even tell you what it’s called.

“It has taken me three years to decide on the scent because I really like B.O. and I think it’s sexy. I wanted to figure out a way to make it palatable to everybody. I was like, ‘How do you get B.O. in a bottle and make an atomiser of it?’

“Then it was all about trying to capture the sense of naughtiness in a bottle that it would be good for a man and a woman.”

Parker has been trying out the new scent on journalists and bloggers during her press tour for new movie Did You Hear About the Morgans?, in which she stars with Hugh Grant.
