InStyle Try This at Home: Jennifer Hudson’s DIY Gel Manicure!

Everyone seems to be trying gel manicures lately, and now you don’t even have to go to the salon to get the long-lasting look. Take a cue from Jennifer Hudson, who used the DIY Gel Manicure Kit for a set of shellacked fawn nails before taking the stage VH1 Divas Celebrate Soul show in New York this week. “Jennifer was really excited to try out the kit,” her manicurist Elle Gerstein tells InStyle.com exclusively. Gerstein used the Red Carpet Manicure “It’s Not a Taupe” LED Gel Polish with the Pro Kit, which comes with a professional-strength LED light to deliver salon-perfect results at home. “The manicure lasts about two weeks and dries immediately, so she didn’t have to worry about chipping her nails during the show.” Pick up the kit for $80 at redcarpetmanicure.com.

The Pantone Color Institute just named “Tangerine Tango,” a radiant red-orange hue, as the top color for 2012. In fashion, this amped up color is sure to lift spirits and give an energy boost, but if wearing the color is too much for you, give one of LUSH’s tempting tangerine-colored concoctions a try. Karma soap and perfume, which have been cult favorites long before this Pantone announcement, are bold beautifiers, with even spicier scents!

Up your Karma quotient as we head into 2012 with Karma soap, sure to turn a boring shower into a truly groovy experience. The spicy orange, lemongrass, pine and patchouli essential oils will balance a tired mood and transport you back to the days of flower power! The scent lingers long after you’ve washed and is sure to reward you with love and kindness, and if not, at least a lovely smell. One whiff and you’ll be hooked – for this life and the next (sold by weight $7.95 for 3.5 oz).

Karma perfume is an ageless classic. This signature LUSH scent, like its tangerine color, will evoke a sense of euphoria, and peaceful well-being. Karma contains Patchouli, which will make you more objective, orange oil to help revive, lemongrass to lifts spirits and elemi to make you feel joyful when you’ve fallen onto some bad karma. Some fall for it without realizing what’s happening, while others love it from the first sniff (available in 3 sizes: $42.95 1 oz/$14.95 .3 oz/$10.95 solid).

Here’s an exclusive exclusive first look at the ‘Truth or Dare by Madonna’ fragrance by Madonnarama!

Madonna will be featured in a global print, television, and online marketing campaign produced in collaboration with Fabien Baron, Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott.

The print ads used for the campaign will feature photos from the Madonna photoshoot by Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott for the 2010 May issue of Interview Magazine.

‘Truth or Dare by Madonna’ will include bracelets, earrings, sexy lingerie and a special Dom Pérignon champagne bottle with custom made packaging.

Press kits of the new ‘Truth or Dare by Madonna’ fragrance have been sent out as well.
Marie Claire’s Sergio Kletnoy, who has his own column on Daily Front Row, was one of the lucky and shared some exclusive pictures with Madonnarama.

The foreword is written by Madonna…

“There is something primal and mystical about the sense of smell. It connects us to memory, nostalgia and the ability to dream and fantasize.

I have always been obsessed by fragrance and for years wanted to create something personal that was an expression of me, but that other people could relate to as well. Something classical and timeless and yet modern.

My oldest memory of my mother is her perfume. I carry it with me everywhere. She always smelled like Gardenias and Tuberose. An intoxicating mixture. Feminine and mysterious.

I wanted to recreate this scent but with something fresh and new about it as well. Something honest and yet daring. Hence the name Truth or Dare.

We can be tricked by what we see and what we hear but not by what we smell.”

The press kit includes a vase of yellow waterlillies, a gold box, a blindfold designed by Kiki de Montparnasse, and a tiny vial of the scent.

Even cheerleaders struggle with their skin.

Glee star Naya Rivera, who plays the fresh-faced (yet potty-mouthed) Santana Lopez on the hit TV show, recently revealed that she suffered from bad breakouts earlier this year, making it uncomfortable to be on camera each week.

The 24-year-old turned to Proactiv’s acne products to clear up her complexion, and now she’s the brand’s new spokesperson.
“The makeup artist on the set of Glee gave it to me and I kept it using it because I knew it worked for other people,” she says. “I really wanted to work with Proactiv because the products really helped me.”

She joins a star-studded lineup of current Proactiv celebrity customers-turned-spokespeople, including Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, Avril Lavigne and Julianne Hough.
