Although I must remember that it’s not so much Miss LUCAS as her “people” that threw her into the Blonde-o-Matic before shooting her with several loaded spray tan guns. Or, you know, maybe it’s for a film role. I think we may have paid out on Miss KRISTEN STEWART at the MTV movie awards before realising her mullet was for an upcoming biopic. As if that will stop us doing it again! Walk the red carpet and your makeup and hair WILL be scrutinised. Walk the RSL carpet on the other hand, and you WILL find yourself enjoying a delicious $9 buffet. I know which I’d prefer.... more

It seems odd, to see a photo of Miss AMBER VALETTA on the red carpet with less than perfect skin. And you know, it’s all relative, because mostly we are used to seeing Red Carpet walkers sassing skin of the the-glow-from-your-face-is-distorting-my-vision, variety. But when I saw this, I thought it was a good reminder that some gentle exfoliation can make such a difference.... more

I love myself sick after getting a solid spray of self-tanner, but I do NOT love the inconvenience that accompanies such activity. Like the wear black rule. Like the no bra rule. Like the have no plans rule. Like the wear pajamas to bed even if it’s 32 degrees, rule. Like the avoid male company because you smell like a rotting potato skin, rule.... more

I think Miss KELLY OSBOURNE looks fantastic. Glamorous, sexy, chic but still with a twinkle of, ‘Piss me off and I’ll box your ears in.’ Which is genuine Kelly, the real Kelly, the mouthy little brat who no matter which designer she’s wearing or how fabulous her false lashes are, will give you a right serve if you tread on her Jimmy Choos. ... more

Which, and I only say this because she says this, is a little but surprising because she sometimes struggles with her skin, in terms of breakouts and oiliness and such things. (Fun fact: oiliness is actually one of the finest anti-aging tools there are. It’s the dry-skinned kids who have to worry about wrinkles, not them.)... more

Which is Mermaid City. Just look at those hair extensions! No, no, no. We have a bit of a declaration here in Beauty Editor land, that extensions should generally only be used for volume, not length. And as one who has had them for length, I say this knowing exactly how un-real (as opposed to unreal) hair extensions can look when you don’t have enough natural hair blended in with them. ... more

Lady Von Fierce, (and lover of wigs and weave) Tyra Banks is doing a show tomorrow (US) time, in which she’s going to wear her Real Hair, and encourage everyone to do the same. But I can’t. Won’t. Haven’t shown my real hair for years, and am not about to start now.... more

How fascinated we women are by the transformation of other women. We love the good ones (hey Rihanna) and we love the bad ones (’ssup Lindsay) and we love the constantly-changing ones who always try new things and mix it up to the point where we sometimes question the contents of their bathroom cabinet but mostly just enjoy the ride (word up, Drew). ... more
