Katharine McPhee’s stunning makeup from last night’s “Christmas in Rockefeller Center”

I watched “Christmas in Rockefeller Center” last night on NBC, and one thing that stood out to me (more than the strange music video starring Justin Bieber and Mariah Carey) was Katharine McPhee’s STUNNING makeup. Once I saw it – I knew I HAD to have it.  She wore this gorgeous nude color eyeshadow that glittered, and it looked so glamorous. Not cheap looking at all! She topped the eye shadow with a thick black eye liner, and the look was beyond gorgeous.

I knew I had to figure out what she was wearing – so I took to Twitter – and it looks like I’m not the only one who was asking! Her top tweet read: “4 those who asked abt my eye shadow last nt…my makeup artist explains…”@Beau_Nelson: She’s got pretty sparkly eyes courtesy of@CHANEL

Her makeup artist continued; “She also has pretty matte rose lips by @JoeFreshNY and black liquid liner by @COVERGIRL. And can we talk about her beautiful skin? @shuuemura nobara stick! My favorite! Shimmery love lust blush from @tomford finishes the look.”

I went digging further and found that Katharine is wearing Illusion D’Ombre Long Wear Luminous Eyeshadow in Fantasme. It is GORGEOUS. I’m ordering mine now, have to have it.

This intensely shimmering long-wear eyeshadow offers true versatility. An innovative gel texture that is both soft and cushiony allows it to be worn as eyeshadow or eyeliner. Includes a specially designed shadow/liner brush, developed specifically for this unique formula.

Go get it yourself! $36

Karl Lagerfeld creates a makeup line for Sephora!

After announcing that Karl Lagerfeld would be launching his debut fragrance, Karleidoscope, news that he’s creating a makeup line for Sephora seemed like a obvious follow up. Sephora has just released a first look at the new line, and it looks pretty cool so far!

The designer has created a limited edition Christmas collection for the brand, featuring a Karl shaped eye palette, nail polishes in black and gold and an ever-so-chic makeup bag with Lagerfeld’s portrait and signature embossed on the front.

It’s safe to say we’d like it all but as for our favourite part of the collection, it has to be the Karl snow globe. Surely it’s what every girl wants for Christmas? A minature Kaiser Karl under a shower of gold glitter.

Can’t wait!

New Zooey Deschanel ad for Rimmel London!

Zooey Deschanel is the face (or eyes) of Rimmel’s fabulous new ‘Glam Eyes day2night’ mascara.

How does the mascara work? You choose the top cap to give your lashes all the length they need for day-to-day life. Then you use the volume cap to plump your lashes up to 15 times their normal volume for evening wear!

I haven’t tried this new mascara yet – but I’d love to!
