Which Warhol character do you think will make an appearance in the collection? I’m banking on Edie Sedgwick. Jane Forth should be another character.

| Kate Moss for Dior Addict Lipstick |
Doesn’t Kate represent Rimmel London? What about future Kate Moss lipstick collections that Rimmel London promises? Did Kate jump ship?

| Kate Moss for Rimmel London Lasting Finish lipstick |
Check out the similarities between the two ads. The way Kate is holding her hand is nearly identical in the two ads.
Rimmel London’s PR rep assures me that Kate is still with Rimmel London and she will be coming out with more lipstick collections with Rimmel London in upcoming seasons. That’s good news – I like Lasting Finish Lipstick in 012 (coral) from Kate’s collection – even better than the coral lipstick that Poppy King created for J. Crew.

| Gina Lollobrigida |
But did you know that Gina Lollobrigida is a talented sculptor? Check out this sculpture that she created for the UN Food and Agricultural Organization (sorry, copying is disabled).
The single is titled “That’s Why God Made the Radio.” Mike Love says “It’s like an accolade to the radio and what it’s meant to so many people.” Indeed. When I was a kid, my most prized possession was my transistor radio – more so than my Barbies.

| Mally Beauty Perfect Prep Poreless Primer |
Mally Beauty Perfect Prep Poreless Primer is Mally Roncal’s creation because she couldn’t find a primer that actually worked when she was working on her celeb clients. Reportedly, she used to mix 7-8 primers to find a solution that worked.

The process of sitting down to blog is hard for me. However, I’ve been very active on Twitter with beauty news. Twitter is easy, blogging is hard.
I’ve also been going through a makeup-free period. After DST, I’ve had a hard time waking up before dawn and it’s enough for me to throw on clothes and get out of the house to go to work. Maybe some lip color and Paula’s Choice Brow/Hair Tint to cover the gray hairs and groom the brows. And that’s about it.
However, that hasn’t stopped me from buying cosmetics! Recent purchases:
