I found them but ended up wearing Adidas Shell Toe sneakers to work instead, because, when I took my socks off and examined my feet closely, they looked pretty gross — flaky heels, dry toes, gnarly cuticles. Ewww! Even though I’ve been good about moisturizing those bad boys at night, my feet still looked rougher than Bobby Brown’s mug shot. http://www.teamsugar.com/1089885#comment Fashion & Beauty Mon, 03 Mar 2008 07:21:29 -0800 klovie http://www.sugarloving.com/1089885 http://www.sugarloving.com/1089882 Lancome’s got a video on Youtube celebrating Pixel Pink Color Fever Shine lipstick, the limited edition shade created for fashion designer Thankoon Panichgul’s Spring 2008 runway show. While the entire video is an interesting insight into the inspiration behind the lipstick and the backstage goings-on at NY Fashion Week, my favorite parts are the animated sequences of “moving paintings” by experimental filmmaker Jeff Scher. http://www.teamsugar.com/1089882#comment Fashion & Beauty Mon, 03 Mar 2008 07:22:53 -0800 klovie http://www.sugarloving.com/1089882 http://www.sugarloving.com/1084014 Great ways to keep your makeup looking fresh and fierce despite high heat, humidity, and sweat! http://www.sugarloving.com/1084014#comment Fashion & Beauty Fri, 29 Feb 2008 06:53:32 -0800 temptalia http://www.sugarloving.com/1084014 http://www.sugarloving.com/1084017 Readers share a plethora of amazing beauty tips and advice they wish their younger selves had known! http://www.sugarloving.com/1084017#comment Fashion & Beauty Fri, 29 Feb 2008 06:53:31 -0800 temptalia http://www.sugarloving.com/1084017 http://www.sugarloving.com/1074139 Ready for great sex, simplified?

With Cream Color Base, your eyeshadow is like an A-list celeb; without it, it’s like Jen Bunney from The Hills. It’s one of those products that every eyeshadow junkie needs to have in her makeup bag. http://www.teamsugar.com/1106707#comment Fashion & Beauty Mon, 10 Mar 2008 07:52:28 -0700 klovie http://www.sugarloving.com/1106707 http://www.sugarloving.com/1089880 I am flat-out hooked on Chanel’s Coco Mademoiselle perfume, but I’m afraid it might be too heavy for warmer spring weather, so I’ve been sniffing around for a lighter, fresher spring fragrance. I call my search Spring Fragrance Quest. I’m on a mission to find something either citrusy or floral, or maybe even a combo of both, and this morning I headed over to the mall to check out Enchanted Orchid, the new fragrance by Bath & Body Works. http://www.teamsugar.com/1089880#comment Fashion & Beauty Mon, 03 Mar 2008 07:22:55 -0800 klovie http://www.sugarloving.com/1089880 http://www.sugarloving.com/1081083 Yes, the skin on my face is drier than well-delivered sarcasm, so I can’t live without my cleansing lotions. Cleansing lotions typically have a rich, thick consistency, making them better for dry skinned ladies (and gents) than astringent cleansers. Look for moisturizing cleansing lotions that won’t produce a sudsy foam as they’re used because foaming gel or liquid cleansers are notorious for drawing moisture away from the skin. And if you’re struggling with dry skin on your face, consider removing whichever cleansing lotion you use with a tissue, instead of rinsing it off with water, leaving the lotion’s moisturizer where it can do you some good. http://www.sugarloving.com/1081083#comment Fashion & Beauty Thu, 28 Feb 2008 07:46:28 -0800 klovie http://www.sugarloving.com/1081083 http://www.sugarloving.com/1071914 Connecting with girlfriends for afternoon tea yesterday left me feeling great, probably the happiest and most relaxed I’ve felt in a long time. I’ve been busy with work lately, and it felt nice just spending time with a big bunch of girls. After tea, as I drove home across the Golden Gate Bridge, I thought about friendship and the power it has to make us feel better. http://www.sugarloving.com/1071914#comment Fashion & Beauty Mon, 25 Feb 2008 07:41:25 -0800 klovie http://www.sugarloving.com/1071914 http://www.sugarloving.com/1061354 Part 4 of 10, featuring everything you want to know about lip color by MAC, including product recommendations for the new MAC fan. http://www.sugarloving.com/1061354#comment Fashion & Beauty Sat, 23 Feb 2008 08:50:10 -0800 temptalia http://www.sugarloving.com/1061354
