Glam Peepers:
My Faux Lash Flirtation
You can't throw
a pebble at a red carpet event, realty show or
mascara commercial without hitting a pair of false
lashes. Eva Longoria
doesn't appear to leave the house without 'em,
Ashley Greene slays with hers and
Alicia Keys heads to the Shu
Uemura Tokyo Lash Bar at Barney's New York for her
fix.
Semi-permanent lash extensions have been
growing in popularity since the U.S. imported the
concept from Asia several years ago, so this week
I'm reporting back from these beauty trenches with
my own faux lash experience.

Head to Toe:
The September Issue
Yesterday, I received the September issue of
Vogue. I went downstairs, just before
dinner, to get the mail, and there it sat, with
the boxes, too big to fit into our mailbox. I have
to admit, I gasped a little bit, in
excitement. It's huge, a doorstop; it's over
an inch thick, and heavy. I haven't weighed
it, although I'm tempted to; I'm curious as to how
much extra weight it will add to my bag on my
commute downtown tomorrow.
On the cover, it says that it's 726
pages. That's a lot; of course, the first
quarter is all stunningly shot advertisements,
featuring glorious, gorgeous
fashion.

Beauty Bits:
Tarte bronze smoky eye
I love when
cosmetic lines come up with seasonal makeup kits
because this means that essential products in
the right shades have already been picked for you!
As opposed to a dramatic charcoal smoky eye
that looks overdone, you can achieve a flawless
sun-kissed look from lids to lips-an excellent
transition from summer to pre-fall-with tarte's
Bronze Smoky Eye kit. Besides, eye shadows and
mascara are all waterproof!
