FELLAS, SPEAK UP: IS "TAXI MAN" MAKE UP FOR YOU?

london - i mean, this is soooo wrong it's right and vice-versa. i am talking about "manscara," "guyliner" and other make up products formulated specifically for men by peter kelly of taxi man, a new line of make up for men. "we’ve developed essentials any guy would borrow from his other half," said kelly. "it’s about subtle make-up rather than wanting to create the drag queen look.” at first blush (pun intended) it might sound crazy, but it's catching on. large london high street retailer, superdrug, has already picked up the line which is selling in its' stores across the u.k.

GIVENCHY TRIED IT WITH THIS AMAZING MASCARA

worldwide - so the beauty blogosphere is buzzing like crazy about this amazing new mascara from givenchy. it is called phenemenon eyes and it just became available on the market. what set's it apart from from many products on the market (besides giving you all the haute couture fabulosity of the givenchy brand) is its shape. as blogger avril o'connor explains, "Givenchy has created a brand new way to apply mascara with a spherical brush that can be manoeuvred to any position, reaching even the tiniest lash to give spectacular results. There is optimal separation of lashes and no clumping. The formula is based on water and a cutting edge polymer. When the mascara is applied, the water evaporates, allowing the polymer to form longer and thicker lashes. It also contains D-Pathenol, which feeds the lashes from the inside." all that equals a product that's worth every single bit of it's $35. get it online at www.sephora.com.
