NARS PRESENTS SS10 TRENDS AND THE HOTLY ANTICIPATED…ORGASM ILLUMINATOR
Yesterday, a bevy of online journalists and blogger beauties braved the chill of January’s night air for a peek at the forthcoming SS10 makeup trends straight from the New York catwalks.
Welcomed with a warming glass of bubbles and tasty bespoke NARS cupcakes, press were put through their fashion week paces by International Makeup Artist for NARS, Jane Richardson. Kicking off with a behind-the-scenes video showcasing the NARS team at Marc Jacobs, Thakoon, 3.1 Philip Lim, Derek Lam and Marchesa, followed by a breakdown of the products used and looks created by Francois Nars and his team.
This was more than sufficient to fill the beauties with utter contentment however, as usual, NARS surpassed all expectations as Jane introduced the ardently anticipated Orgasm Illuminator. The genuine shrieks of delight that this aroused, coupled with the stunning luminous glow it gave our fave web writers, assures me that this latest offering is sure to be yet another jewel in the NARS crown. Kudos Mr Nars, kudos.

Dark tropicals, ethnic tribal prints, sugary pastels and a sharp injection of yellow were just some of the key trends and summer must haves on show, all given the inimitable Toast twist. They heard of Toasts exciting plans to open more stores, particularly in Cheltenham where a new concept store is due to open on Feb 15th - taking over an entire regency building the store will be a visual feast housing all Toasts accessories, fashion and house & home collections as well as a ‘Toast Tea Room’ with resident giant gold loaf!

L’OCCITANE PEONY COLLECTION LAUNCH
It was a floral affair at today’s launch for the new Peony collection from L’Occitane in the Salle de Fete at Kettners.
There were squeals of delight all round as we previewed the new makeup and fragrance collection from the Provencal brand and had demonstrations from makeup artist Karen Alder.
Delicately scented blushers, lip glosses and eyeshadows were loved by all and the press couldn’t stop spritzing the fresh and floral Peony fragrance which launches in May.
