You might have heard of this little movie called 'Twilight', starring Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart. It seems 'New Moon', the vampire flicks' second instalment, has inspired a makeup collection from the cult brand DuWop.
And what, pray tell, does a Twilight-inspired makeup collection look like? For starters, there'll be a version of the brand's Lip Venom plumper that'll be separated so one half looks like blood. Can we also expect the palest foundation this side of a geisha girl's makeup stand?
The products are said to be launching later this year, but you might want to line up now. You know a gaggle of hopeful Edward Cullen suitors can make for a crazy scene.
So maybe this is happening because people are crying over losing their jobs, or because people are going on more dates (online dating has gone way up during the recession), or maybe just because people want their DiorShow. But anyway, sales of mascara have boosted by 8.5 percent at supermarkets and drugstores over the past year. More than $260 million has been spent on eye makeup during that time.
Meanwhile, lipstick sales - which usually rise during hard times - have dropped by 5.8 percent. What's happening here?
Of the new-retro singers, Duffy is pretty much what Mandy Moore was to the girl pop stars of the late '90s. (Amy Winehouse is Xtina, natch, and although she's a non-lipsynching musical genius, Adele has to be Britney because you always get the impression she could go a bit wild.)
Duffy went to Sweden this weekend for Stockholm's 'Where the Action Is' music festival, and she seems to be going a bit more modern with her hairstyle. Do you like her going more natural, or do you miss the beehive?
Shaping up your hair for summer? Keratase can help. On May 20, the company is offering complimentary blow-dry sessions and in-salon treatments at participating US salons.

Raquel Zimmermann showed off her new blonde locks at the Met Ball this week with Proenza Schouler designers Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough. We've already seen models Daul Kim and Iekeliene Stange trade brown for blonde, and the only thing we can say is that summer is coming. Do you change your hair to follow the seasons?
For their current Anthology frangrance campaign, D&G were inspired by tarot cards. The result? Models Claudia Schiffer, Eva Herzigova, Naomi Campbell, Noah Mills and Tyson Ballou naked in a steamy campaign shot by Mario Testino.
Ah, the perks of watching a company reflect on the past 20 years. Nail-varnish favourite OPI has come out with the Colorcopia collection, which offers 12 of its bestsellers from the past two decades in one go. Use up your bottle of Shootout at the O.K. Coral? Can't get enough of Kinky in Helsinki? You, my friend, are in luck.
