Our love affair with the bold lip and Dolce & Gabbana Make Up is still going strong, so we were delighted when we received a package housing the six gorgeous shades from the Monica Lipstick Collection inspired by Italian silver screen siren Monica Belluci. Craving to see the head turning shades in action, we decided to test drive them ourselves and play a little game called Six Shades of Amanda.

It is the first day of Fall and not only does that mean we are changing up our fashion, but we are also adjusting our beauty regimen to accomodate for chillier weather. Naturally, we turn to Barney’s beauty department and the expert advice from their Beauty Guru Jason Ascher. He gave us great tips on skin care, his top three must-have beauty products, fall beauty trends, and all his best product recommendations for this season (all obviously exclusive to Barney’s).

Oscar de la Renta S/S 2010I promise that this will be the last coral post this summer. Yes, I am a tiny bit obsessed (there were the cheeks and then the lips) and I just had to come full circle. Just don't wear it all at once! There are many shades of coral but I love the really bright ones. Summer perfect! Dashing Diva “Miranda's Law” ($8 US at Dashing Diva)OPI “Tropical Punch” ($11 CAD at

Sometimes when we find that perfect shade of lipstick there are a few problems that could soon follow. For instance, what if the bright cherry red lands on your pearly whites? Can you say embarrassing? Clinique has released a lipstick that not only keeps the lipstick off the teeth, it keeps them looking better than ever!
The people at Clinique hired a series of dentists to assist them in their latest project. The dentists pinpointed which colors gave individuals the best looking smile, and they put together 12 products that can make your smile a full shade of white brighter!

With tons and tons of lip venoms out there, I’m sure all of you know what I mean when I talk about the tingle. It’s fine at first, it’s really the only way you know the venom is working and giving you that fuller pout. But after about five minutes, the tingle is a bit too much tohandle. Pain may be beauty, but not that much pain! When DuWop released their first lip venom there was quite the craze, it was one of those products that actual did what it claimed, it really worked! Only problem was the tingle, a bit too long lasting. So they came out with 2nd Sin, a lip venom that kills the tingle with an instant cooling effect after a couple of minutes, and it works just as well as the first!

I know you’ve all seen your favorite movie stars with that “natural beauty” look. One key to that is to stay away from the lipstick and definitely keep your paws off the bright colored, sticky gloss. If your going for the nude lip look, we have the perfect secret. Apply a bit of foundation to your lips followed by some coral tinted gloss, concentrate the gloss toward the center and your smooch is good to go!

Not that I think Britney’s been looking too hot lately, but her makeup artist is offering up some helpful tips; guess it can’t hurt to listen. Lesson one in Brits beauty diary: Aluminum foil. Spears’ makeup artist freezes the foil and applies it to the lips to reduce swelling. Never heard of it before, but I guess if it gives you a fresh pucker you can’t loose.
