Ramblings and Celebrity Signings: Julia Roberts for Lancome, Diane Kruger for L’Oreal Paris

December 12, 2009 Paris B 10 Comments

Whats up girlies! Aren’t you glad the weekend’s here again? 😀 Those who have been on long weekend since Friday need not apply 😛

Julia Roberts for Lancome

juliaroberts_lancome

The latest news for celebrity sign ups is Julia Roberts for Lancome. You might have already seen many beauty blogs abuzz with this info. Yes, the Oscar winning actress who captured many a heart with her mega watt smile is going to be the face of Lancome from 2010. I think they are going to capitalize on those lips with L’Absolu Rouge perhaps? 🙂 They’re already touting Rich Cashmere as her colour! And L’Oreal picked up a celeb too – tis must be the season for celebrity signings.

Diane Kruger for L’Oreal Paris

And while L’Oreal was at it, WWD reports that they have snapped up another celebrity spokesperson for the L’Oreal Paris makeup line in Diane Kruger. I didn’t know who she was – perhaps I’m living under a rock – but she starred as Helen in Troy and most recently appeared in Inglorious Basterds. She’ll join Penelope Cruz and Eva Longoria and I expect we will be seeing quite a bit of her around soon 🙂 I love that red lip look she’s rocking!

Christmas shopping online!

I saw that StrawberryNET.com is offering an extra 10% off their Christmas sets until Dec 20 2009. I was so close to ordering something last weekend so I’m glad I waited. The additional discount + my loyalty discounts gave me 20% off the Bliss Blood Orange set and a YSL powder! 😀

Benefit Cosmetics online too has some great daily deals going on. Just check out the Benefit Cosmetics Calendar and grab your deal. Free International shipping with code WORLD115 for purchases of US$115 and over. Psst! Share with a friend! 😉

Random Search query of the week

I got a strange one this week asking “how can i lower my high heels”. Well dear other than suggesting you buy new lower shoes or lobbing off the heels of your current pair, I’m not quite sure how else you can lower your high heels. Ideas anyone?

DKNY Delicious Candy Apples for 2010

DKNY Delicious perfumes are popular. The bottles shaped like apples are so cute! I remember they came up with something pop art this year. But in February 2010, look out for the DKNY Delicious Candy Apples range. I like the idea and the names but I’m thinking the scents sound a little too sweet for me. I haven’t quite tried the DKNY Delicious line of perfumes though. So perhaps I’ll go take a sniff. Read more about the DKNY Delicious Candy Apples at the Scented Salamander.

What have you planned for the weekend? I have friends coming over later today for a bit of a soiree so I’m going to get started on my house cleaning. Can’t have them coming to a tip can I? 😛

Happy weekend!

      Hi Joyce

      I wasn’t aware of the heel supporter but I think ultimately it’ll be more comfy just getting a new pair?
