Jessica Simpson Sexy Healthy Hair
Jessica Simpson Sexy Healthy Hair
Jessica Simpson is a very popular singer and actress. The star has a huge fan following, and she has quickly become a household name for many people.

Jessica Simpson Hair 2010
One of the biggest trends this season is big hair. Not the big helmet hairstyles from the 1980s but teased hair that is big on top and full of volume. Jessica has jumped on the big hair bandwagon and she looks fantastic. Half updos are very popular in Hollywood, and when combined with teased up hair they look great. These styles make the cheekbones stand out and look high, are easy to do, and flatter nearly everyone. With Jessica's style, her hair was teased on top to add a lot of fullness, giving her a huge updo that was smooth, finished, and quite elegant.
Jessica Simpson 2010 Hair
This is an easy style for anyone to get. All you have to do is put your hair half up. Medium-length hair is the perfect length for this style but longer hair will work just as well. Make sure that you use a shampoo and conditioner that will build up volume in your hair, and any styling products you use should help build volume as well. If you have fine hair and you want to tease it into a big hairstyle like what Jessica wears then you should use protein based products as these will help to build up your hair. Use a blow dryer and round brush to add even more bounce to your hair and remember that the bigger the barrel the bigger the hair. Tease through the crown to have the right height and use hairspray to hold it all in place.

EZ Flow We Crave Passion
This is EZ Flow We Crave Passion. I know it's a terrible picture. I'm going to re-do it one of these days. This might be one of the rarest polishes in my collection- I didn't even know EZ Flow did polish! I had never heard of it until I stumbled upon it and I've never seen another since. I've never seen pictures of it or heard anyone mention it. I have no idea how old it is but it's sure as hell not Big 3 Free (you can smell this sucker from a mile away, omg, it's bad). The color is a rich reddish purple with tons of glass-flecky gold shimmer. It's like OPI Peel Me A Gobi Grape on steroids, and frankly, it's about 800 times awesomer.
I have a few other polishes from EZ Flow that I never got around to swatching, but they're pretty cool too... Anyone out there own any from this brand? I wonder what their color line was like. They had at least a purple, a green and a sweet stringy multi glitter!

Recent stash enhancement
Haven't felt much like swatching lately, but I took some bottle pics of some pretty stuff!
Some Ulta brand polishes that were buy two, get two free (isn't that really just buy one get one free?). I forgot the name of the purple one. Material Girl, Envy (yes, envy, not just one but two Ulta green shimmers with envy in the name!) and... Jaded? I must admit I liked the old bottles better because these square caps don't align properly after you open them.
These were on sale at Ulta too! I only had two or three Borghese polishes before this- Espresso Brown and Stellare Notte and one I got on clearance at TJ Maxx which I've never worn and can't find. These are Almondine (really cool nude with speckles!), Plumaggio Purple (which looks awesome with 2010/Hidden Treasure on top) and Menta (super sheer turquoise shimmer that looks too blue in this picture)
Some of the new Finger Paints. I think the multi-colored glitter in the middle of the top picture is limited edition but the rest are permanent! How cool is that?! I couldn't find the one that's supposed to be an Absolutely Alice clone, I'll have to hit another Sally sometime. I think it's awesome that they've added a whole bunch of greens and glitters to their permanent collection.
And of course, the crown jewel... The Ulta Glam Goth collection. This picture kinda turned out weird. But these are awesome. Sure, they're all really similar to other polishes, but they're just so awesome all together like this.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go pass out in a miserable allergy-induced coma. *achoo*

A popular suggestion with most brides is just telling their bridesmaids to wear it either all up, half-up/half-down, or all down.

Shakira Trendy Hairstyles
Shake It Like Shakira - Get Shakira Hair For Summer 2010
If you have long, naturally wavy locks, then you may want to consider getting a Shakira inspired hairstyle. Shakira’s hair is long, wavy, clean, and simple. Additionally, it is sexy, exotic, and extremely easy to maintain. To turn your bed head into long, wavy, Shakira locks, try following a few simple steps:
1. When you go to your stylist, have her cut a bunch of layers into your hair. If you plan on making your hair super curly and wavy, you will want to give it a little extra body. This is especially the case if your hair is very long. Your style will appear fresher and hold for longer if you have a high quality layered cut.
2. Scrunch after showering! Upon exiting the shower, you will want to comb your hair out with a thick-toothed comb. Then you should scrunch a curling mouse or texture-creating product into your wet hair. Then, you can either let your hair air-dry, or blow it dry with either a diffuser or a regular hairdryer on low power.
3. After you hair is dry and curled like crazy, you will want to pick it out again. The goal here is to obtain wavy curls which are loose and lovely. You don’t want them sticking together.
4. The finishing touches for your hair should include a few shots of hairspray and a dash of anti-frizz serum. This will keep your hair looking shiny, springy, and fresh all day long. Let’s hope you don’t mind signing a few autographs!

Eye of the Day
I'm on a huge makeup kick right now. That silly Bare Escentuals Foiled Eye kit set the whole thing off. I may have hauled just a little too much makeup this month... but... I got a couple of my recent purchases in the mail today and I had to play around a bit. I like how this one turned out.
Natural light.
Flash.
This was:
MAC Paint Pot in Painterly
Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy
Fyrinnae Leopard-Print Galaxy on lid
Fyrinnae Dokkálfar in crease
Fyrinnae Arcane Magic Dark Fantasy on lower lashline
Bare Escentuals Emotion with MAC water-based mixing medium as liner
Laura Geller Wonder Wand highlight
Urban Decay Zero tightline
L'Oreal Double Extend with Lash Boosting Serum mascara
The Leopard-Print Galaxy shadow is pretty cool- it's a soft antique gold with kind of a... coral? Coral pink? sheen and shimmer to it. Dokkálfar is awesome in the jar, but I had a hard time keeping the intensity once it was on the lid. I think I need to work on my technique more. Maybe I should use it wet next time.
Bare Escentuals Emotion is *awesome*. It's like if Essie Sexy Divide was an eyeshadow. So glad I got that one. I have plans for this one. Oh yes.
Then I was goofing around taking stupid pictures and ended up with the GIANT SCARY EYEBALL!!!!
OH NOES!!!!!!!

Nubar Night Sky Collection Spring 2010
The Nubar Night Sky collection is a set of three mattes and a bottle of Diamont Seal and Shine topcoat (which is pretty awesome topcoat, I'm a Diamont fan) so you can do a mixed-finish manicure like a matte french with shiny tips or whatever creative idea you can think of. Pics first, my thoughts second.
Midnight Matte. I'm not sure if the name is Midnight Matte or Midnight (matte). The label says Midnight Matte, but I wasn't sure if it was like Borghese's letters (like Espresso Brown F) or Sally Hansen's finish declarations (Trendy Creme!). Anyway. Charcoal matte with lots and lots of silver sparkle. Little bit like Orly Iron Butterfly, but lighter.
Sunset Matte. Medium orange-brown gold with lots of shimmer. Maybe it's just my skintone skewing it, but sometimes it looks like an antique brass shade on me, while in other lights it's definitely gold.
Twilight Matte. Medium silver-grey matte with lots of sparkles. Lighter than Zoya Loredana.
And of course, with topcoat:

With topcoat they transform into super-sparkly foil like shades. Kind of a cross between OPI Suedes and Orly Matte Metals. Lots and lots of shimmer.
And since I had my bottle of 2010 (which is Nubar's 10th anniversary special polish- a flaky opal topcoat) next to me on the table, how about with 2010?

Midnight Matte with 2010
Sunset Matte with 2010
Twilight Matte with 2010
Sunset Matte with 2010
Twilight Matte with 2010
I must say, 2010 looks incredible over these. Instead of being super flashy and obvious like it is over cremes (especially dark ones), it lends a subtle yet fascinating iridescence on the top of the polish without changing the color. I actually wore each of these as a full manicure with 2010 over them and I couldn't stop looking at my nails. It's just really interesting, it looks magical and you just kinda want to look at it for a while to figure it all out.
The formula on these was awesome. These are the best formula mattes I've used. They don't dry while you're applying them so they are very forgiving. They're thin like normal polish, not super thick like some mattes. They dry very quickly and the matte finish is a true matte, none of that sorta-matte satiny rubbery halfway stuff. Opacity is good- I did two coats but if you're careful you can probably do only one coat with Midnight and Sunset.
My first impression of the set was, "More mattes? And not even unique colors. Gold, silver and black. You can already get a gold, silver and black matte from other brands!" And that's when it dawned on me. You can get them from other brands. Lots of people have been getting into the matte thing lately. It's only natural for brands to want to secure a place for themselves. While I would have liked to see more interesting and unique matte colors, I understand why they did these. The formula is at least better than average. And I'm not even sure why I complain about mattes not being unique shades when I have at least six different brands of matte topcoat to mattify any color I want.... I'm rambling now. Deep thoughts about matte polish.
