Her style is copied by women around the country – and now Cheryl Cole has landed a deal to front beauty brand L’Oreal Paris.
The X Factor judge will represent the brand in the UK – and her first campaign will be promoting a hair product called Elvive Full Restore 5, which will hit the shops next month.
Cole, 26, who won a place in Girls Aloud by appearing on Popstars: The Rivals, graced the cover of British Vogue in February.
She said: “I have always loved the brand and have always wanted to say the iconic phrase: ‘Because you’re worth it,’ so to be given that opportunity is absolutely amazing.”
L’Oreal Paris general manager Gayle Tait said: “Cheryl is a glamorous, stylish and talented young woman whose warmth and charm has captivated the nation and helped to establish her as an inspiration to women throughout the UK.”

Becky Newton plays the sexy and sassy receptionist on ABC’s Ugly Betty. She recently opened up to Redbook Magazine about her opinions on beauty and more.
On real beauty:
“When I think of the most beautiful women, they’re not supermodels. My mother is 53 and comfortable in her own skin. My mom doesn’t spend hours in front of the mirror or at the gym. She doesn’t deprive herself of anything. It’s ultimate beauty when the inside and the outside match up.”
On playing Amanda:
“I’ve learned there’s nothing wrong with being a little fussy. I used to pride myself on being low-maintenance—I wore it like a badge of honor. I would leave the set with my hair all big and full after the show and feel like I had to immediately throw it up in a ponytail. Now I think jeans, a tee and big hair are a great combination. Glamour is fun! Spending time to get ready isn’t about being fussy: it’s about taking care of myself.”
On working at a fictional fashion magazine:
“Amanda has the best job. She has access to all the clothing, but she doesn’t have to do all the work.”
On beauty trends:
“While I’m sure I’ve left the house looking like a raccoon, it’s better to try and fail than not to have fun with it.”

Eva Mendes is the cover girl for the September 2009 issue of Marie Claire UK. She’s so beautiful!
Here are some highlights below from the interview:
On her Calvin Klein adverts that were banned in the States:
“You can’t show your nipples, apparently, in the States. But you can blow up anything you please in a movie or on TV.”
On her curves:
“I love my curves and I embrace them, but I have to walk a fine line. There are certain dresses that are like: ‘Oh, this is really feminine. This isn’t sexy at all’, but then I’d try it on and it just turned. I think it comes down to being voluptuous, and if your body’s a certain way, then things can go distasteful in a second.”
On regular therapy sessions:
“I love therapy! I’m very into it. I’m very in touch with my feelings, so I’m a completely different person. Not that different, but there’s nothing like going in and sitting down and talking to someone who has no emotional tie to your life. Just to talk to someone. It’s amazing.”
On visiting cemeteries:
“I love cemeteries. They’re so beautiful and peaceful.”

To debut their luxe cosmetics brand, The Makeup, Dolce & Gabbana would settle for nothing less than one of Hollywood’s modern muses. And when it came time to launch their new scent Rose The One, they turned again to Scarlett Johansson. The actress couldn’t be happier with the appropriately rose-hued results, which were shot by Jean Baptiste Mondino, explaining in a statement that Mondino and designers “capture all of a woman’s graces, our quiet moments. That to me, is what makes this campaign so special, and it feel wonderful to have been a part of the collaboration.” The floral fragrance, which is the final launch in The One trilogy of scents for the Italian designers, will debut next month with prices starting at $60 for a 30 ml eau de parfum spray.
