Brown nail polish is THE nail color for fall 2014

Have you already started thinking about what nail colors you want to wear this fall? As much as I love wearing bright nail colors, I'm a big fan of darker colors like plum, black, dark gray and maroon so I was happy to hear that browns are the It color this season! SheFinds.com says many nail polish companies are featuring this color in their fall collections with OPI featuring four shades of brown in their Nordic Collection.

What do you think about brown nail polish? Will you try it out or will you stick to your usual nail colors? 

Charlotte Tilbury Wants You to go to Sleep With Makeup On

Famed British makeup artist Charlotte Tilbury recently spoke to Allure Magazine and shared some of her beauty tips, one of which includes going to sleep with makeup on. Tilbury launched a beauty line last year in the UK and Europe and it's currently available through Net-a-Porter.com. 
On to the beauty tips! Tilbury suggests trying colored eyeliner to bring out the color of your eyes. She suggests plum for green eyes, reddish brown for blue eyes and copper or bronze for brown eyes.

Try using two shades of blush. This is a new one for me, I've never heard a suggestion like this before, but it makes sense. Tilbury says to try a fleshy color just below the apples of your cheeks and a brighter shade on the centers.

Don't match your foundation to your face, but rather match it to your neck or decolletage which is just a tad darker than your face. She says that blemishes and dark circles are more noticeable on a pale face.

Don't forget to curl your lashes! Tilbury says curling your lashes is like a push-up bra for your eyes.

Last but not least, she suggests taking all of your face makeup off, but leaving eyeliner and mascara on so you wake up with a lived-in and sexy look.

I realize she's a pro and all, but I've fallen asleep with my eye makeup on before and I looked scary when I woke up. So I won't be following that tip! 

In case you want to see some of the beauty line, here are some more photos to drool over:

K.I.S.S.I.N.G. Lipstick, $32

Cheek to Chic Swish & Pop Blusher, $40

Charlotte's Magic Cream, $95

The Magic Cream is supposed to be the ish when it comes to priming and moisturizing your face. Tilbury says she can't do a face without it. 

Nailsinc. NailKale: Nail Polish Made with Kale!

I subscribe to a disturbing amount of beauty and fashion related newsletters and most of the time it's nothing special. But today, I saw that Nail Inc. created a line of nail polishes formulated with kale, reports ITG.

They call it "superfood for nails to strengthen, illuminate and color." 

       

It's pretty interesting and I'm tempted to try it out. They've got a base coat, four polishes and an illuminator that has iridescent pearls to brighten the nail bed and give the appearance of whiter tips. 

The base coat goes for $15 and the rest go for $14. 

What do you think of nail polish supercharged with kale? 

Rite Aid is Going to Start Selling High End Makeup?!

Yep, you read that right. Rite Aid is stepping up their makeup game and will start selling brands such as Beautyblender, Senna Cosmetics, Eddie Funkhouser and Alison Raffaele Cosmetics as well as a nail bar, report WWD. They're also going to have beauty advisors to help with products and color matching.

I think this a step in the right direction, but it would be nice if they were going to incorporate more well-known brands. Maybe I'm just behind on things, but of the cosmetic brands that Rite Aid is going to offer, I've only heard of Beautyblender and Senna Cosmetics.

Whenever I buy drugstore makeup I typically buy it at Target, Walmart or Walgreens. I've never been to a Rite Aid where I was really impressed with their selection or the layout of the beauty products. Where do you typically buy your drugstore makeup?

What do you think of Rite Aid's move to expand their beauty offerings? Do you think it will do well? 

Marge Simpson for MAC

I've always been a little weary of MAC. The loyalty of people to MAC reminded me a lot of the allegiance of people to Apple products and it kind of weirded me out. I have nothing against the brand, but I just never got into it. Years later, I finally bought a few products online because there was a deal going on and once I tried an eye shadow, I could see why people were so hooked. The eye shadow was unbelievably pigmented and went on smooth. Despite the fact that I liked what I bought, I never became a full-blown convert.

But now I learn that they're coming out with a collab with Marge Simpson... I just might have to change my mind.

I've been a Simpson fan since Bart was telling people to eat his shorts. I kinda wish they had some products with Lisa on them so it'd kinda be like the Sharon and Kelly Osbourne campaign, but whatevs. 

That Trillion Dollar Look Quad, $44

Marge's Extra Ingredients Quad, $44

Powder Blush, $24

Lash, $18.50

Grand Pumpkin Lipglass, $16.50 (Bright, creamy orange)

Red Blazer Lipglass, $16.50 (Bright Fuchsia)

Marge Simpson's Cutie-cles Nail Stickers, $16.50

So, I would never wear it, but I am loving the Nacho Cheese Explosion lipglass! Would you wear any of these products?

Should Rihanna Start her Own Fashion and Beauty Brand?

We all know that Rihanna has fronted a MAC campaign, has appeared in ads for Balmain, Vita Coco, Nivea, Covergirl and Gucci and had a collection with River Island, but what about her very own line of products? According to Stylelite.com, Rihanna has trademarked her last name, Fenty, to use on a range of products from clothes to lingerie to beauty. Her MAC Viva Glam 2 line is set to be released in September, she tweeted the ad earlier this month.

According to Trademark documents, new trademark documents were filed for the following names: 
Fenty Apparel, Fenty Beauty, Fenty Clothing, Fenty Cosmetics, Fenty Face, Fenty Intimates, Fenty Lingerie, Fenty Makeup, Fenty Nails, Fenty Swim, Fenty Swimwear, Boomflick, Fenty Corp, Robyn, Fenty88 and Rhi Rhi.

Rihanna's had a lot of luck with her own fragrance and she's due to release a sixth fragrance, but this time it's for men. What type of product do you think Rihanna will release? She has a super sexy style so lingerie or even nails would be a great move. What do you think?
