Kristen Bell in Target’s “Falling for You”

 

Who doesn’t love Target?  I mean, this is the only place you can walk into and come out with a bunch of items you had no intention on buying. Well, your favorite one-stop shop is bringing you a different shopping experience through their romantic comedy, “Falling for You“.

“Falling for You” is Target’s first uninterrupted, shoppable short-film, starring Kristen Bell (“Forgetting Sarah Marshall”), Nia Long (“Big Mama’s House”) and Zachary Abel (“Make It or Break It”), and directed by Phil Abraham (“Mad Men”).

 

 

The film provides you with an enhanced online experience where you can browse, share and purchase more than 140 of Target’s hottest fall fashion, beauty items from Sonia Kashuk, and items for the hme styled by celebrity stylist Jen Rade.

The film will be released in three five-minute episodes (you can watch the first two episodes now http://fallingforyou.target.com), with the last one releasing on Oct. 9 at Target.com/FallingforYou and will remain online through Oct. 31 for viewers like you to interact with and shop, while supplies last. The film culminates with a special live performance event in New York City on Oct. 10, which also will be streamed live onTarget.com/FallingforYou.

Fall Beauty: Achieve Bold Fall Beauty Trends with Laura Geller Make-Up

Fall beauty for 2012 include bold, colorful eyes where eyeliner takes the spotlight.  Whether thick and smudged out or overdrawn and precise, eyeliner is the must-have product this fall beauty season.

 


 
Laura Geller makes it simple to achieve these show-stopping looks with her NEW Eye Rimz Pencil Duos Collection.

 

Bewitching Bronze & Hocus Pocus

 

What are Eye Rimz Pencils?

These are not your ordinary pencil.  Eye Rimz Pencils are waterproof, creamy, gel-based pencils created to deliver the same color intensity as their sister, the Eye Rimz Baked Wet/Dry Accents Collection. Eye Rimz Pencils soft, yet bold liners, glide on comfortably and impart a high-shine finish that stays put all day long. And, the pencils are retractable, featuring a hidden sharpener to shape the tip of the pencil for the creation of precise, detailed lines.

Two complementary colors are paired together to provide countless ways to define and accent eyes:

Bewitching Bronze & Hocus Pocus – deep, rich brown with bronze shimmer paired with an intense black with forest green shimmer

 

 

Swatch of Bewitching Bronze & Hocus Pocus

 

Goldspell and Potion – intense black with golden shimmer paired with a rich, royal purple with pearl.

 

Available exclusively at QVC and QVC.com for $29 each

 

Nothing goes better with a bold eye than a nude/neutral lip!

 


 

 

Italian Countryside Lip Pop Collection

The Italian Countryside Lip Pop Collection was inspired by the colors, textures and sights of Italy.   This collection features neutral nude, pink and fall berry shades of the Italian Countryside. What’s even better is that this exclusive stain-gloss hybrid formula always glides onto lips, yet is super long-lasting and actually waterproof.  They smell good, too! Something like strawberries and cream, yum!

The glosses feature an easy-to-use brush that’s shorter at the tip to make it easier to control, so that you can have the perfect pout every time.

 

L-R: Palazzo Petal, Milano Mauve, Venetian Vino

Palazzo Pink  (sheer petal pink)

Makeup Looks: Diosa Nails

Below are some of the most recent makeup looks I’ve done. 

 

This is Diana, the owner of Diosa Nails.  I did her makeup for the Diosa photoshoot, as well as two models.

Diana wanted a natural makeup look.  To achieve that, I used MAC Face & Body Foundation to even out her skintone. I also used MAC Mineralize Skinfinish to contour. I even gave her lashes, which she was afraid of because she thought they would look too dramatic.  She was happy with the finished look.

 

This is the finished look…

 


Here is one of the models.  I added a pop of color to the upper and lower lashline using Make Up For Ever Aqua Eyes liner.  She too has on MAC Face & Body Foundation.
