Welcome to FabUK and my first post about the best of everything that fashion and beauty have brought us in 2008! The Sugar gang will also be encouraging you to vote on your
favourites of the year in various network-wide polls — so keep your eyes peeled for some serious end of the year fun!
Last year, my pal BellaSugar US rounded up all of the top
celebrity fragrances from 2007, and this year, I'm here to let you vote on the best newbies of the bunch.
This smooth-faced, sleek-haired and always shaven guy is fun to shop for because he loves a good indulgence. You can spoil him with anything from a sensuous body wash to a clean-scented cologne. He loves a bargain (who doesn't) but he also appreciates the finer side of grooming products.
Welcome back to this month's edition of my beauty must-haves. All of these items (and more) are on my wish list for this
Christmas season. The products range from this decadent makeup brush set to a velvety-smooth and silky eye cream that won't break the bank.
On Saturday night at the Indigo Concert in London, Estelle performed with a brand-new hairstyle. Unlike her past few
hairdo's she's now sporting longer locks with face-framing layers and heavy fringe. What are your thoughts on Estelle's extended hair?
Granted, Great Britain isn't sunny, warm or sandal-friendly for most of the year, but having beautiful feet are a fetish of mine. I feel instantly more feminine after getting my feet scrubbed, buffed, smoothed and my toes polished in a pretty shade.
On average, I get a pedicure about every three weeks.
Silver nail polish is definitely not a brand-new trend, in fact, it was popular in the 80's and then re-surfaced about a year and a half ago with basic-coloured metallics like
silver and
gold. Many permutations like gunmetal, blue and chrome, spawned from the basics, while gold and silver seemed to fade with the season. Now it's back again and this time, we're seeing silver on some of Hollywood's hottest girls like Lindsay Lohan (
spotted in Paris) and Paris Hilton (dressed up as a
Pussycat Doll).
Shopping for your friend who loves the classics has never been so easy. You can find everything from an iconic mascara to a cult-favourite blush online in a jiffy! She appreciates best-sellers and tried and true products that have remained popular throughout the test of time.
For those of you who have been searching high and low for a fabulous
Christmas gift to suit your eco-conscious friends, look no further. I've gathered some of my favourite (mostly) natural and earth-friendly beauty products for you to peruse.
One brand that I want to tell you about in particular is
NveyEco Organic Makeup (pronounced na-vay).
Last night at the
British Fashion Awards, singer (and
Rimmel model) Sophie Ellis-Bextor arrived with lips that perfectly matched the red carpet. As usual, her face was pale and her eyes and mouth were the focus of her makeup look. She's not one to shy away from colour, and as we see, she favours
cool reds, pinks and corals with pizzazz.
Today's beauty-centric
Christmas gift guide revolves around your pal, the sport. This gal is your partner in crime on the field, in the mall or at the gym. She's full of energy, spirit and she's always game for an adventure!
