Shiseido’s Maquillage makeup line has teamed up with Alexander Wang to create a line of his own. Maquillage X is currently available in Asia, but the question is, when do we American ladies get to try it? I love how natural and lovely the colors look- like so many of his garments, you can wear this anywhere.

With the eco-friendly movement gaining more momentum, it was only a matter of time before our favorite reality stars marched right on with it. Whitney Port has become the newest member of eco-friendly cosmetic company, PlantLove. The City star has created a hot pink lipstick to be featured alongside various other products of the PlantLove line. Eve Pinky is set to hit Sephora stores next week! And just incase saving the planet wasn’t enough reason to buy the lipstick, here’s another: two dollars from each sale of Eve Pinky goes to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

We know sometimes your willingness to buy a product varies with the attitude of the salesperson. But with Sephora, it’s not so much about attitude as it is about looks. There are those salespeople that smother on pounds of makeup hoping that you buy one of the 80 products represented on their face, and then there are the others that go natural and wear no makeup at all.

A recent study reports that women in the presence of salespeople more attractive than them were less likely to purchase the beauty products. They just didn’t want to go near the people! Funny, I would have thought quite the opposite. I mean if your next to someone much more attractive, especially in a makeup store, wouldn’t you want to buy all the products possible?
