For Perfect Autumn Pout: Try L'Oreal Crayon Gloss In Vintage Rose

Autumn 2014 is looking over our shoulders. Tuesday will be the first, full day of Fall.

Soon, we will be easing into our blazers, cardis, leather jackets and more.....

Still, there are some warm days ahead for many of us.

And now we've found the perfect autumn pout! It's NOT a heavy, matte lipstick.

We're talking about L'Oreal Paris Colour Riche Glossy Balm Crayon in Vintage Rose ($7.99, at Walgreens).

This sheer shade is so-oooo pretty in pink!

It's lovely for an everyday, little pop of color. Plus, the twistable crayon point tip makes it super easy to apply.

And while you're workin' your lips + smile, why not take your favorite floral frock and continue the feminine, flirty trend right into autumn.

Put on a little cardi or leather jacket over your floral dress and stride into style.

Short hair/long hair.....Taylor Swift has been in LOVE with floral dresses  for-like-ever! Gotta love the cardi + dress look for Fall.

We adore this floral body-con dress from BooHoo.com ($43.99).

Amber Rose Gearing Up For New Show: Meantime--She Can Look Elegant

Amber Rose could be coming to a library +reality TV show near you. The sexy, head-shaven celebrity has recently signed with new manager Nick Cannon's company NCredible Entertainment.

A book deal + television project are allegedly in the works.

We find Amber Rose intriguing and could give reality TV queen Kim Kardashian a run for her money.

Amber Rose CAN look elegant + refined. Just take a look at her posing on the red carpet of the BET Awards in June.

And when your face is that PRETTY, who needs a lot of hair?

We are lovin' her makeup here. And this is usually Amber's look:

Amber appears to prefer a light, penciled in brow, spikey faux lashes and high-end foundation.' This is what she told Elle magazine once:

"My one regular splurge is YSL [Teint Resist] foundation. I love it, because it goes on so smooth and light, but still covers up everything I need it to cover up. I also love M.A.C Lip Glass in `Pink Lemonade.'". 

Linda Evangelitsa Re-Ignites Modeling Career At 49: Face Of D&G New Makeup

"At the beginning of my modeling career, my eyebrows were one of my most distinctive features. Makeup artist Francois Nars taught me how to shape my brows and showed me how to draw them in where they absolutely should be. We would look at a picture of Sophia Loren's Brows and use that as a template."
---Linda Evangelista

Sophia Loren

Who could ever forget one of the sassiest supermodels around---Linda Evangelista.

She was a wonderful chameleon---able to transform from girl-next-door to androgynous beauty to sexy woman, and on  and on.....

At almost age 50, the glamorous beauty has once again emerged as an  in-demand model in a cut-throat business that idolizes youth.

Yes, this vintage model is STILL working and keeping it together. She spoke recently with the UK's Daily Mail.

Linda has also been crowned the face of Dolce & Gabbana’s new make-up line – Perfect Reveal Lift Foundation and Sheer Radiance Make Up Base.

It comes in 15 foundation shades and is enriched with the exclusive Gold Flavo-Silk Tricomplex. Reduces fine lines + wrinkles in 4 weeks ($72, at Saks).

L'Oreal Claims RevitaLift Is Number One Eye Cream In America: Less than $20

We all hear and see tons of promises by some BIG beauty companies.

Here is another recent claim by Cosmetics + skin care giant L'Oreal:

"RevitaLift® Anti-Wrinkle + Firming Eye Cream --- The #1 Eye Cream in America."

For LESS than $20, we think it's a must-try. What do you have to lose?

$17.99 to be exact. Buy it at L'Oreal-Paris .

So....What does this drugstore eye cream promise to deliver?

Smoother, Firmer skin in 4 weeks.
Visibly reduced dark circles.

Sounds fantastic to us. But it better contain some powerful ingredients to create this magic.

L'Oreal RevitaLift Anti-Wrinkle + Firming Eye Cream does feature Pro-Retinol A® and Stimuplex, which are designed for skin cell renewal, hydration, firming, protection, etc.

Check out the back of the box.

We believe that a lot of drugstore skin care products CAN make a difference in how your complexion looks.

But to say a product CAN firm in 1 week sounds deceptive. Even prescription Retin-A CANNOT perform such magic that fast.

Still....you have to try several beauty products to find the right one that works for you.

So, we will give L'Oreal the benefit of the doubt and say it IS a good eye cream.

Now, we want to pick up a jar and see if it can improve our nasty, dark circles.

Jessica Alba Shows How To Wear A Bustier In Classy Fashion

From summer to approaching fall 2014, Jessica Alba has illustrated to the world how to wear a sexy bustier the right way. Nothing vulgar. Nothing cheap.

Here's the lovely star emerging from a car last evening in yet another black bustier. This time in a classic black/white combo.

And here is the mom-of-two again, sporting the shoulder-baring style that accentuates the uplifted bust, decollete and neck, too.

Then in a green bustier and an ivory bustier dress.

You can copy the classic style with your own bustier under a pretty blazer.

We found a variety of bustiers from NastyGal.

Yes, some of them are naughty, but several of them are also nice for day wear:

On SALE now for $18 at NastyGal.

And this one, also now on SALE for $16.80.

Bustiers look best on smaller-busted women, because everything stays in place. No cups runneth over.
