Taaz is a virtual makeover service, which launches today. Taaz has proprietary facial recognition software so that it can, for example, figure out where your lips are when you want to put on lipstick. Taaz also differs from normal photo editing tools in that it is specifically set up to help users (mostly women) see how they might look with different hair, eyes, makeup, etc. Finished makeovers can then be shared with other users, rated, commented, etc.

Simply called ‘Chloe Eau De Parfum’ the new signature scent created by The House of Chloe & Coty will go on sale world-wide in February. The first bottles will be passed across the counter in France, followed by the US and then the UK. A 50ml bottle will retail at around 65 Euros.
The launch party, a few months ago, was a luxurious two-part affair, the first part taking in place in ‘Chloe’s Apartment’ – where a Paris Apartment was furnished and decorated entirely in the style of Chloe especially for the event. The second part was an evening party at the Hotel de la Monnaie. The parties were attended by around 800 guests including Lily Cole, Mary Kate Olsen and Julie Depardieu.
Also present of course were the three muses, chosen to front the campaign – three faces for three different moods of Chloe. Francoise Mariez of Coty Prestige tells us that, Anja Rubik (the fashion model) represents the sexy part of Chloe, Clemence Posey – Youth and innocence, while Chloe Sevigny is the hip, trendy assertive face of the brand.
The scent itself, created by Robertet Perfumiers, Michel Almairac and Amandine Marie, includes rose, peony, lychee, freesia, magnolia, lily of the vally, amber and cedar wood. The beautiful square faced flask is created by Patrick Veillet and is said to be inspired by the sleeve of a Chloe Blouse.
So there are the details – all you need to do now is wait for it to arrive in store, and test if for yourself. Let us know what you think.

When Agyness Deyn revealed the secrets of her beauty bag to Elle UK Magazine’s January issue, there were a few surprises in there. Agyness has been using Rimmel since her teens and achieves glossy lips and punky eyes by using Vinystars lipgloss in LiquidAsset or Hotrock (£4.29), VinylGloss Lipgloss in No Chance (£4.29) and Extra Super Lash Mascara in Black (£4.29) – so you can start to build a model’s make-up collection without spending a fortune.
Some of Agyness’s other beauty secrets include Dermalogica skin products, Elizabeth Arden’s Eight Hour Cream, eye-lash curlers and Mac Lipsticks (Impassioned and Lustening).
Agyness uses Armani Fluid Sheer Foundation in no4 to achieve her flawless look, Nars Blush in Angelika (18.50) for that ‘just been out in the cold flushed look’ on her cheeks, and Dior Styleliner in Black (£18.50) to get ‘great feline flicks’.
