RIMMELLONDON Secrets in Agyness Deyn's Beauty Bag

Category : Celebrity, Cosmetics, Latest, Women

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’.

At Next – "Ombre My Prints will Come" (sorry)

Category : Latest, Spring, Summer, Trends, Women

As we know, ombre and all kinds of prints – everything from bold florals, geometrics, abstracts, artist’s ‘splodges’ – were a big story on the catwalk for spring and summer 2008. So I selected a few of these dip die and printed pieces from the Next Directory when it landed on my doormat the other day. The Dip Dye Tee-shirt ties in with the sporty looks that will be around soon, and maxi-dresses will be with us again in 2008. I really like the floral print tunic worn with white trousers – a really wearable way to pull off this look. If you want just a touch of print to add to your spring wardrobe, get the geo-print scarf from Next (this looks fantastic with a crisp white shirt) or take another look at the print scarves from Accessorize that we featured in Rachel’s LA Cool (Accessories Archive December 2nd).

We’re a little obsessed with the nautical theme at the fashion guide – I think we like it! Remember our Hello Sailor post, December 3rd (accessories archive). Well TopShop have taken the theme a little further and put together a capsule wardrobe, featuring stripey tops, a little anchor tee and shopper, neck scarves, bikinis, a little rainmac… sorry getting carried away – but basically everything to make you feel like Brigitte Bardot in Saint-Tropez. So all you need to do now, is go back to work, save up and book yourself a little mini-break – go on you deserve it – christmas can really take it out of you…
