Dolce & Gabbana Solve White Girl Problems

Edited by

Matte or sheen? Stick or gloss?? Gah!! These are the questions that plague us – our white girl problems are near-unbearable. Thank Gabbana something has been done to sooth our situation: the white flag has been raised between lipstick and gloss with the advent of Dolce and Gabbana’s Passion Duo Gloss Fusion. It’s both, in one. Stick on the outside, gloss on the inside. Like a magical makeup mullet. See how they designed it here.

Blow Dolce & Gabbana a Platinum Kiss

Edited by

If you’ve been digging gray nails over winter, you might not be so willing to give that up come springtime. We want you to keep the gray, but not the dull. Dolce & Gabbana Platinum Nail Lacquer knew jacques a long time ago, took what it learned from him, then added intensity and luminosity to the overused matte. It’s got undertones of olive, shines silver and reflects gold. And it applies like silk. It complements the not-too-bubbly pink Dolce & Gabbana Bon Bon Lip Gloss. Yummy.

My Lips are Black and White and Red All Over

Edited by

A red lip is a powerful trip. And I’ve been making due all season with my cheapie red Revlon to carry my prowess, but I don’t know if that will suffice anymore. Not now since I’ve tried the Illamasqua hue Box. It’s a bit grittier than any lipstick I’ve tried, it really needs to be worked on in layers – one swipe won’t cover it. The effect builds, making for a richer, deeper, crimson that stays perfectly matte.
