Taylor Momsen is the face of John Galliano's new perfume

Let me tell you, it was hard to find a picture of Taylor Momsen where she looked remotely classy enough to be mentioned as the new face of John Galliano's as-yet unnamed scent being released this fall. Obviously, a picture of her smiling eluded me. Hopefully she'll look a bit more cheerful when she helps launch the scent, details for which are being kept quite quiet. Do you think Momsen's a good match for Galliano?

Festival Makeup Gallery: The Secret Garden Party

This weekend saw the advent of the Secret Garden Party and many happy ravers descended into the fields of Cambridge to laugh, play and dance their little hearts out. Amongst the many, many revellers, there were some who stood out of the crowd- and not just for their dodgy dance moves. We want to celebrate the effort and skill taken to create their lovely makeup looks, and are celebrating the funky styles in this post. I'm loving the girl with the silver rain face paint- who do you think did it best?

Yllume Ultimate Illuminating Complex: A miracle in a bottle

Yllume cream.jpg

Pronounce 'ee-loom' this tricky to spell product is the latest wonder cream to hit the UK, and I'm afraid I have to tell you that it 100% works. The cream was created to give your skin more radiance and help prevent prenature aging, and it uses a range of impressive ingredients to do so. Formulated to work as part of a two step programme, the cream is designed to be used in conjunction with their specialist skin supplement, to heal the body inside and out.

Due to the fact that I'm not very good at taking pills, I've just been trialling the moisturiser for the last four weeks, and am happy to report that you can get great results without swallowing daily supplements (though I'm sure they help).

Edward Bess comes to the UK!

Edward Bess has achieved a lot in his 23 years, a modelling career and a range of makeup that has cult status! Previously only available across the ocean, Edward Bess products are now being stocked exclusively at Zuneta. The video above shows you the man himself talking about his range and his vision. It's a bit weird hearing the startlingly attractive but androgynous man talk about how he has chosen cosmetics to 'celebrate his image of female beauty', but then he says cute stuff such as his products are 'goof proof', and you forgive him.

The range specializes in high quality neutrals, with a selection of eyeshadows, lipsticks and lip glosses. The emphasis is on quality, and the pricepoint reflects this- these are investment products rather than spur of the moment buys.

I can't wait for the Mad Men premiere Sunday. Sure, I want to know what's happening at Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce, but more importantly I want to see the fashion, hair and makeup. The ladies gave us a stylish little preview at the Hollywood premiere this week. I loved Christina Hendrick's subtle cat-eye shadow in particular. Keep reading for how to get the look.
