Big, Fake…Lashes – Maybelline Falsies

By Melisa Stephans

Am I the only person in Los Angeles without fake breasts?  Possibly.

At times–usually during a night on the town–I notice the hoards of artificially enhanced women around me and begin to feel like a 12-year-old girl waiting to grow.  I  try to compensate in other ways–by having better style, makeup, and conversation than your average Angeleno.  Though I’ve fought the good fight, I’m officially worn out and have decided to get Falsies…

BATF’s L’Oreal Elnett Hair Spray Review

By Melissa Stephans

Kourtney Kardashian stocking up on L'Oreal's Elnett products

I’ve become so intrigued by the images of Kourtney Kardashian hoarding bottles of L’Oreal Elnett at her local drug store, that I wanted to see what this hairspray was all about.  I’ve heard a lot of positive reviews about Elnett, and, let’s be honest–there must be something damn good about this spray if one of the three Dashkateers is stockpiling it by the dozen.   I am not a huge fan of hairspray, since it usually feels heavy, sticky, or both (every time I buy a hairspray, I end up tossing it).  But I trust my Dash Dolls and decided to go for the gold, er, bottle.

Audrina Patridge checks out Garnier’s new product launches — and I was there.

By Melissa Stephans

Audrina Patridge getting pampered at the Garnier launch event

Garnier recently held a party in Malibu to celebrate the launch of a bevy of new hair and skincare products. The event, which drew beauty writers and bloggers—including moi—also drew a pretty flawless looking Audrina Patridge.  Her hair was effortlessly breezy and her skin had a remarkable glow, which convinced me that Garnier’s new products are definitely worth a look.

Thanks to a very hefty swag bag — a.k.a 10 pounds of product tucked into a Helen Kaminski raffia tote — I was able to road test some of the goods. Here’s what I found:

Finding Good Hair Product for Men

By ASy
***Read til the end for a Philip Kinglsey Giveaway!***

Beauty and the Feast

I’m a sucker for two things: good kicks and good hair. Whether you own a pair of Jordan’s, Puma’s, or the John Varvatos Chuck Taylors, each unique sneaker has its own personality and usually tells a story about who you are, your character and style. Like a fresh pair of Nikes, a good hair style does precisely the same.

But time and time again, whenever the American Crew Pomadeor the Paul Mitchell Tea Tree Shaping Creamcontainers come to an end, I find myself wondering what product I’ll buy next, because I am never fully satisfied. I make do, but sometimes at the expense of too much product, it results in a heavy feeling and most importantly, a stiff, flaky look.

I’ve struggled to find a good reliable product, until now…

Product Review – TIGI Bed Head’s After-Party

I don’t know about you, but my hair loves to go POOF after I blow dry. It’s so annoying. You can even finally get your style down right and there they are — the frizzies.

I’m not keen on oily serums that can make your hair go flat (and apply too much and you just went from shower fresh to grease ball). Then I was introduced to TIGI Bed Head After-Party.
