Can you imagine a world without NARS products- or more accurately, without the famous NARS Orgasm? No, me neither. But if you were born before 1995 you'd have grown up without this beloved brand in your makeup bag.
To celebrate that it has reached the age of a sulky teen, NARS is releasing a limited edition eye palette. It's called Everlasting Love to symbolize their enduring properties, with a mixture of smoky shades and rich hues that you'd expect from a NARS product.

The ubiquitous blonde has rarely put a foor wrong in the last fifty years. Despite practically sharing a birthday with Madonna, she remains equally line free and svelte,with her only concession to age being slightly widened eyes, and an ever changing variety of hairstyles. The doll has always symbolized energy, attractivness and sex, so a makeup line seems a natural transition. Previously we've seen two very high profile campaigns- the fab Barbie/MAC mash up of 2007 and the recent Stila set which combines products in gorgeously printed tins.
My colleague mentioned the fab eyelashes on offer, but I decided you guys would want to see even more.

London Fashion Week has closed its hallowed curtains on another season, yet Autumn is just beginning. As well as golden leaves, roasted chestnuts and shorter hemlines (with coloured tights, obv) comes a new range of products that allow one to adapt for the changing temperature. DSqaured2 is the creation of Dab and Dean Catten, Canadian haute couture designers who have made the move into the cosmetic world. They've teamed up with MAC to create a collaboration of inspired colours and textures, that are perfect for Autumn.

Steam Cream is fast becoming the latest homegrown cult beauty sensation, and having checked out the range I'm happy to add my stamp of approval to its list of devotees. The cream's name comes from the process used to make it: its unique texture and extreme smoothness is achieved by adding - you've guessed it - steam to the formula, removing the need for emulsifyers, some of which have been flagged up as potential health hazards.
The cream's popularity comes partly down to the limited run designs on the handbag-friendly tins (I'm totally coveting the leopard print version) and the way that each style has its own name. But my love for Steam Cream goes deeper: it's made under staunchy ethical conditions making it a truly eco-friendly choice. To bag yourself a pot, you can buy them here for £9.95.
Yep, it's what all Mac-addicts have been waiting for! The hottly anticipated Colour Craft collection is now out. Mac have of course triumphed yet again with their range of mineralized and marbelized eyeshadow quads, trio skinfinishes, marble-effect 3-in1 glosses and lipsticks. Despite the colour-crazy promo images it's all wearable and can be worn lightly or layered up for a colour pop. We are loving the eyeshadow quad in Eccentricity with its stunning blend of purples, gold and bronze - the perfect colours to do the divinely pearly finish justice. The skinfinish powders and trio version undoubtedly create the most luminous effect providing on-trend sheer-colour.
Not forgetting the three brushes designed so you can apply the collection with Mac-standard pro-precision.
Although we would of liked to see a re-design with the packaging, this collection doesn't need dissecting -it is simply gorgeous. So less chat, more shop. Click onto the Mac website to snap up this (part) limited edition collection before it sells out.
With many of us credit-conscious at the moment there is nothing worse than spending £25 on a new 'must-have' then shoving it to the back of your draw when it does nothing for you! New products come and go but only very few do exactly what they promise.
Not every product suits everyone, one girl's acne-inducing serum may be another girl's golden ticket to eternal beauty! But nonetheless we have compiled a list of the ten essential beauty products that nobody should be without. These are the outstanding products that have rightly earned their position in the beauty hall of fame!
Read on for our top ten list in no particular order...

MAC tend to be on the forefront of trends, and we've seen their collections challenge what is seen as appropriate (who would have thought lilac lips would ever take off) so when I went to briefing about what would be big this year I knew I was in for a treat. Makeup artist Terry Barber talked us through some of the key looks for fall this year, and we're going to share them with you now!
