What's Wrong With Princess Kate's Black Eyeliner? Designer Westwood Says Too Harsh

Princess Kate = Heavy black eyeliner?!

Sorry, but we think brit designer Vivienne Westwood has it all wrong about the newly married Duchess of Cambridge.

In fact, we believe that Kate does her OWN makeup, quite royally, and that there's a bit of jealousy out there, when it comes to the slender brunette who caught Prince William's eye. Lately, we have seen it all over the British media, and when some can take a few shots at Kate, they really let 'em rip!

This is what the well-respected fashion designer told the Sunday Times Magazine: 'I think she's got a problem with eye make-up. The sharp line around her eyes make her look hard. Either she should be smudgy or wear none.'

Ouch!

Dame Vivienne is being a 'bi-atch' in our humble opinion. But she is not alone in her makeup criticism of Kate. Celebrity makeup artist Rachel Wood suggests that the princess/duchess just soften things up a bit, too:

'I'd love to see her with a strong and classic liquid on top and take her favoured hard black pencil on the bottom and soften and smoke it out. I would also love to give her a little more mascara,' she continued.

'If she prefers to keep the black liner she so loves to wear on the top line, I would love to add a touch of a smoky shadow to open and soften her eyes. This way she is keeping the colour she feels comfortable using, but giving it a much needed update and softer finish.'

Sheesh. We don't think Kate's liner looks out-dated at all. Could you imagine these women spouting off like that about the late Princess Diana?

Diana LOVED wearing eyeliner and tons of it. She, too, liked to rim the entire eye, and never once, did Diana do it wrong, either.

Liner is key when putting together a smoky eye. It gives shape and frameto the eye and looks quite polished and sophisticated, when done right.

Maybe some Brits would prefer that the Duchess of Cambridge have a professional makeup artist on hand, to perfect her non-professional makeup application when Kate appears before the public?

Even Kelly Osbourne believes Kate should take her royal highness to another uber level:

Kelly told Jay Leno on the Tonight Show about Kate wearing an outfit more than once :

'In England they are like look how thrifty she's being, showing the British public that the Royals are in a recession as well. Only in this country they call it a faux pas.'

Double ouch!

In our world, there's nothing wrong with black eyeliner. In fact, it's a makeup necessity!

Olay Acne Control Face Wash Welcome Product On Hot Steamy Days

Hot, steamy days can equal clogged pores and bad skin. And the worst complexion nightmare---acne.

Ugh!

Can't stand the high humidity levels that have been baking the country in a thick layer of greasiness.

And the weather doesn't just affect our oily skin girls. Even dry-skin friends are screaming for some bad skin/acne relief.

We found something that will keep you clean and clear:

Olay's Acne Control Face Wash ($5.94, on sale at ULTA.) This is a strong facial cleanser that attacks the grime and greasies with a dual-hydroxy complex containing salicylic acid. It goes deep to unclog those pores, but won't strip your skin. It smells great, and it's gentle enough to be used daily. And best of all.....It keeps the acne away!

Love the pump dispenser and the nice lather Olay has developed for this effective facial cleanser. The formula really works, and we think you'll be pleased. Of course, we adore salicylic acid because it soaks up the greasies and performs nicely as an exfoliator, and doesn't harm sensitive skin.

Vanessa Hudgens Beaming With New Short Boy Haircut

When a great movie role calls for an actress wearing a really short, shaggy hairstyle, she has two options:

1. Chop the hair off.
Or
2. Wear a wig for the role.

Vanessa Hudgens chose the more courageous path....She let them chop off her very long dark locks into a short, boy haircut.

We didn't think the young, popular actress would let them near her hair, but boy, were we wrong! And the final result----amazing! We think Vanessa Hudgens looks better in short hair. Take a look at Vanessa rockin' the new cut at a surfing competition in Huntington Beach, California.

The actress will star in an upcoming movie called, 'Gimme Shelter.' And for the role, she had to get down and gritty. The flick is about a pregnant homeless teen (Hudgens) who flees her abusive mother (Rosario Dawson) and seeks out her biological father.

"The tattoo, the hair, the clothes, the piercings, the attitude, the everything,” she tells PEOPLE. “The walk, the talk … it was a completely new person. I really did look like a boy.”

We think this boy cut is very pretty on 22-year-old Vanessa. Plus, she gained 10 lbs. for the movie role.

It's an edgy cut and great for summer. The crazy thing is, Vanessa claims she cut her OWN hair, to give it that gritty, urban vibe. Hey, our suggestion....If you love this hairstyle, just bring a photo of it to your hairdresser, and go from there. Don't attempt this on your own. And maybe, Vanessa let a pro finish the cut AFTER she took a scissors to her long locks.

We think it's a super change for Vanessa Hudgens. She's a very petite girl with a small face, and this choppy boy cut brings out her beautiful features. It's bold and makes her look mature. We didn't even recognize the actress at first.

Hollywood seems, too often, to get caught up in this very long, extension-type hairstyle, the one seen on all 3 Kardashian sisters, Guiliana Rancic, and Entertainment Tonight's Nancy O'Dell. It's the same, copy-cat do with ultra-long waves covering the bosom.

Vanessa Hudgens' new look is quite refreshing, and she's getting noticed for it.

Jessica Simpson On Set For New Fashion Reality Show

Jessica Simpson is returning to television with a new reality show, "Fashion Star." It will be shown on NBC, and Jessica will play the role of celebrity mentor to some future designers. Model Elle Macpherson will join her on the series. Sounds like another Project Runway wanna-be.

Go ahead and snicker....but Jessica Simpson is getting the last laugh.

The clothing empire she built, is already worth about $1 billion. And the blonde-haired Simpson is only 30-years-old. Plus, she's very busy planning a wedding to fiance Eric Johnson, launching a new fragrance, and putting together the new fall line of her clothing, shoes, and signature handbags.

She's been on the set of Fashion Star out in Los Angeles. Check out the photo snapped of her yesterday, wearing a sparkling mini dress.

NBC is excited to have the fashion businesswoman front a TV series:

"With an almost billion-dollar lifestyle brand under her belt she is sure to be an excellent mentor to our up-and-coming designers,' said Paul Telegdy, NBC and Universal Media Studios executive.

We are told, that so far, no launch date has been set for Jessica Simpson's, "Fashion Star.".

Jennifer Lopez Gives O Mag Glimpse Into New JLo Kohl's Fashion Line

Sexy and modern.

That's how superstar Jennifer Lopez wants women to feel when they put on a piece of fashion from the singer's new clothing collection at Kohl's this September.

The Kohl's JLo style is being featured in the September issue of O magazine. You get a glimpse of the glamorous Lopez influence that will be launching across the country in Kohl's dept. stores.

Originally, JLo and husband Marc Anthony were going to debut a lifestyle dept. together at Kohl's. But, since recent news of a split-up with divorce on the way, we're not sure if her ex will also continue with his own Kohl's venture.

Meantime, Jennifer Lopez is not looking back. The womenswear collection is definitely on. As far as the home furnishings by JLo, we're not sure yet if that will also launch.

Hey, it's all good! You can smell like JLo with her gazillion JLo fragrances, look like JLo with her new clothing line, and hopefully, decorate your home like JLo, too.

Mariah By The Sea: Post-Baby Aquatic Workout To Regain Figure

Mariah Carey. Gisele Bundchen.

Both of these famous women share something in common.

They sure don't look alike. Both are quite tall, but body-wise, they are very different. Mariah is curvy with a definite hour-glass silhouette, while Gisele is long and lean with a model's dimensions.

Both have gone through a first pregnancy, and that is where we take a further look at the post-baby aquatic work-out.

The gorgeous singer recently tweeted to her fans, that she was hitting the beach to exercise."Ocean work out!" Mariah announced, along with a photo of herself splashing in the waves. "It's been a loooong time since I've been in the ocean."

Good for her! Keep the body moving!

Mariah Carey has been trying to re-gain that lovely, curvy body, after giving birth to twins back in April. No easy task for any woman, celebrity or non-celebrity.

Mariah claims that aquatic work-out is "3x more effective" than other work-outs. And that is how she generally stays in great shape.

Maybe Mariah is on to something for ladies in post-baby mode, because that is how supermodel Gisele Bundchen bounced back following her birth to son, Benjamin Brady.

Except, Gisele was working out in a pool. But it doesn't matter....pool or ocean. It's all about water resistance:

It's called the Brazilian Body Surf program, and Gisele was reportedly doing the surf during her 2009 pregnancy. Smart girl! At least that is what the Boston Herald was reporting.

What exactly is the Brazilian Body Surf? According to the website Equinox, it's a combination of cardiovascular and muscle conditioning drills taught using water resistance.

Great post-baby body tips Mariah and Gisele!
