Planet Beauty’s Fall/Winter 2009 Style Report!

As the season changes, so must your beauty routine.  Maybe you’re adjusting to the kids going back to school and want to simplify the products that you use every day.  Or, if you are a style maven your motivation may be staying on top of the season’s hottest trends.  Look no further than Planet Beauty, always on trend with the products we know you’ll love.

Planet Beauty style experts offer their predictions on the hottest trends for Fall/Winter 2009.

Curls are the must have hairstyle for fall and they’ve been spotted everywhere from soft cascading waves, to halos of curls, powerful amplified shapes, and even loose natural waves circa the 1940s.  Achieve these hot looks and protect your hair color with CurlWave Styling Cream from COLURE True Color Care, $25.00. All of COLURE’s products are free of parabens, sulfates, alcohol, perfumes, dyes and other chemicals that could possibly strip color.

I’ve tried this cream, and I love it. My hair bounces from straight to curly all the time, and usually falls somewhere in between, a big ol’ hot mess. This product helped define my curls, and give them bounce! 

Speaking of stripping, forget those false eyelash strips! It’s all about long and natural eyelashes courtesy of Kiss Me Mascara, the original macara that creates tiny-water resistant tubes around lashes that cannot clump, flake, smear or run $24.95.

Once you’ve got your hair and lashes covered be sure and experiment with the perennially popular red lip! From subtle to sassy, DeVine Goddess Lipstick by Napoleon Perdis empowers women with sophisticated and chic colors.  Transcend to timeless beauty with DeVine Godess true red called “Eros” $22.95.  It’s a favorite of celebs like 90210’s AnnaLynne McCord.

Finish with a mani and pedi featuring the beautiful selection of colors from O.P.I.’s new Spain Collection, $8.95 each.  The new collection features a range of red, purple, and other dark shades including Barefoot in Barcelona, Can You Tapas This? Give Me Moor!, Pink Flamenco, No Spain No Gain, Ate Berries in the Canaries and more. Plantet Beauty’s favorite pik from the collection is Here Today…Aragon Tomorrow, a dark moss colored green shade with a light shimmer!

Tired of constantly having to reapply your lip color throughout the day or worry about your lip
color smudging or bleeding? Now, you can say goodbye to all the fuss and hello to lusciously
full, beautifully defined, fresh looking lips that last all day!
New Double Wear Stay-in-Place Lipstick and Double Wear Stay-in-Place Lip Pencil are the
latest additions to the renowned Double Wear makeup collection of long-wearing, stay-in-place
products. Each of these luxuriously creamy, long-wearing lip products deliver instant rich, staytrue
color and shine to lips for a luscious look that lasts no matter how long your day or night
does.

So many colors, so little time you have to see the all Estee Lauder’s  new shades, they are simply beautiful. On top of great colors to match any skintone and personality Estee Lauder’s new Double Wear Stay in Place Lipstick is formulated to keep up with the busiest girl with wear times up to 12 hours!

Double Wear Stay-in-Place Lipstick
Traditionally long wearing lipsticks have been described as being matte, dry, dull, tacky and
uncomfortable to wear. Now, Estée Lauder has taken the unparalleled staying power of the
luxurious Double Wear long-wearing makeup line and created a truly innovative lipstick that
delivers all day comfort and wear with a rich, satin-like finish.
Double Wear Stay-in-Place Lipstick’s satin-smooth, long-wearing formula gently glides on lips
with the comfort of a traditional moisturizing lipstick and wears comfortably for up to 12 hours,
so that just-applied look you love in the morning is the look you keep all day.
The lipstick’s patent-pending, one step, long-wearing formula incorporates state-of-the-art
polymeric technology to provide continuous fade resistant, stay-in-place color for all day wear
without reapplication. Long-wearing flexible film formers provide extended wear on the lips
that won’t transfer or fade. These film formers also help to deliver a perfect layer of comfortable
hydration to lips from morning until night without drying, so lips never feel occlusive or taut.
The lipstick’s unique polymer system also provides lips with a satin finish unlike any other long
wearing lipstick, locking in color and finish so that the rich, creamy color stays true throughout
wear. Double Wear Stay-in-Place Lipstick won’t smudge or feather even when drinking and
eating.
Available in 12 elegant, classic shades, this luxurious lipstick is packaged in a new Signature
navy blue and golden fluted case with the Estée Lauder cartouche on top of the cap and Estée
Lauder name embossed around center band. Available in shades: Stay Rose, Stay Pink,
Stay Pinkberry, Stay Raspberry, Stay Mauve, Stay Plumberry, Stay Mocha, Stay Ginger,
Stay Coral, Stay Scarlet, Stay Cranberry and Stay Ruby.

Toss your old dry lip liners, Estee Lauder’s Double Wear lip liner is formulated to smooth on your lips easily  and stay put all day. I love the double ended pencil with a sponge tip to easily blend your liner and get a perfectly colored pout!

Double Wear Stay-in-Place Lip Pencil
Now you can say goodbye to lip color that bleeds or smudges! Combining all of the advantages
of a luxurious lip pencil with the benefits of long wear, Double Wear Stay-in-Place Lip Pencil
delivers a perfectly defined pout that protects your lip color with long wearing, color true
definition that lasts for up to 12 hours.
Double Wear Stay-in-Place Lip Pencil’s non-feathering, non-bleeding, skip-free formula
delivers a color true, smooth, even line that lasts all day. The well structured consistency of the
lead guarantees expert control, lip definition and wear, staying in place and looking as though it
was just applied throughout wear.
Thanks to new innovations in moisture agents and long-wear technology, this lip pencil glides
effortlessly onto lips, enhancing wear with a lightweight creamy feel. Two protective moisture
enhancing ingredients help to create the pencil’s superior creamy texture and comfort.
Hyaluronic acid is a natural occurring skin moisturizing ingredient that assists with moisture
retention while acting as an application lubricant, ensuring a perfectly smooth lip line. Delivering
a smooth, comfortable, natural feel on the lips, is non-occlusive and extremely lightweight on
lips. Combining with the hyaluronic acid to create a unique barrier on the lips, vegetal filling
spheres are a natural plant moisturizer that soothes as well as protects lips.
The double-ended sharpenable lip pencil with brush comes in a selection of fourteen shades
that range from the most neutral to the deepest tones and compliment any lip tone. Apply alone
or under your favorite lipstick for beautiful lips that look fresher longer. Available in shades:
Pink, Fuschia, Rose, Wine, Plummy, Tearose, Spice, Mocha, Chocolate, Tawny, Coral,
Apple Cordial, Red and Russet.

Whitney Port, star of MTV’s The City, is quickly becoming the style icon of her generation. Model, stylist and clothing designer, Whitney Port is now taking her design career beyond a role at Diane von Furstenberg, to the world of beauty.

New York Post’s Page Six Magazine recently dubbed Ms. Port “The New Carrie Bradshaw” because of her extraordinary style and glamour. Always on the cutting edge, Ms. Port has now partnered with CARGO PlantLove™, the trailblazing prestige beauty brand leading the eco-movement, to design her perfect shade of lipstick. Whitney Port joins the ranks of fellow celebrity lipstick designers Courteney Cox, Evangeline Lilly, Angie Harmon and Denise Richards, to name a few. Each one of these women has partnered with CARGO because of the importance they place on protecting our planet and helping others. Importantly, CARGO will be donating two dollars from the sale of every lipstick to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital®, the world’s premier pediatric cancer research center.

This fall, Ms. Port’s very own signature shade of hot pink, eco-friendly 100% Natural PlantLove™ lipstick, “Eve Pinky,” will debut. The PlantLove™ line is the only prestige make-up brand to be designated ECOCERT®, a global designation signifying that all product, process and packaging meet the strictest standards for natural, organic and environmentally friendly content. ECOCERT® designated products dramatically reduce their environmental footprint.

The lipstick itself is 100% Natural, made from an infusion of Organic Cocoa Seed Butter, Organic Sunflower Seed Oil and Vitamin E. These ingredients help moisturize lips, fight free radicals and reduce the appearance of fine lines. The lipstick is housed in a tube made of Polylactic Acid (PLA), a polymer made entirely from corn, a renewable and abundant resource. What’s more, PLA production emits less greenhouse gas than traditional plastics.

Hana Zalzal, president and founder of CARGO Cosmetics, explains, “CARGO believes that small actions taken by large groups can make a real impact. The PlantLove™ brand is more than a line of make-up: It represents a movement towards beauty without compromise.” Ms. Zalzal goes on to say, “Whitney Port brings a fresh face to the PlantLove™ movement that will inspire women around the world. We couldn’t be more pleased to work with such a brilliant, young role model.”

PlantLove™ Lipstick in Eve Pinky by Whitney Port retails for $20 and will be available mid-August 2009,
at Sephora stores and Sephora.com.

From COVERGIRL’S Celebrity Makeup Artist Molly R. Stern:

“It always seems that inspiration ends up coming from the dress. Last night Amy wore a gorgeous full length Carolina Herrera gown with a charcoal and white pattern speckled with gold beading. So I borrowed from that exquisite color palette.”

“We went for a steel and copper smoky lid, gorgeous full lashes, a peachy cheek and a golden amber lip.”

Face
I first started by prepping her skin with a refreshing spray of Jurlique rose water balancing mist. And then moisturized her skin with La Mer’s moisturizing lotion

Next I based her skin sparingly with the new Cle de peau cream foundation. Then I warmed up her cheeks with the gorgeous new COVERGIRL Simply Ageless Sculpting Blush in Plush Peach.

Eyes
For her eye, I based the lid with a combination of Shu Uemura’s cream eye shadow in P taupe, and Vincent Longo’s silky orange liquid eyeshadow

Over that I blended the new NARS shadows in Brumes.

Under her eye I smudged COVERGIRL Exact Eyelights Eyeliner in Radiant Sapphire in the outer corner and on the inner corner I dabbed a smidge of Shu Uemura pressed eye shadow in NME gold 350.

On her lashes I coated them with COVERGIRL Exact Eyelights Mascara in Black Sapphire.

Lips
To finish off the look I tinted her lips with COVERGIRL Outlast Lipstain in Cinnamon Smile with a dab of YSL golden gloss over top.
