Miss Dior Cherie Commercial by Sofia Coppola

I've been wearing Miss Dior Cherie for a few years now. It's not exactly my signature but it's a scent I rely on for those days where I want to feel extra glam. I think Dior's new ad directed by Sofia Coppola personifies the je ne sais quoi of glamorous French girls who aren't afraid to have fun. What better song to play than Brigitte Bardot's, Moi je joue. Watch this one when you need me a pick me up and don't forget to keep a bottle of Miss Cherie in your scent collection.

BIG Sexy Hair is all the rage this season and we're all for this one. From the Dior catwalks to high-end salons around the world, curls are definitely making their mark. Here are some of our favorite new hair products to give you big bouncy curls that will make heads turn.

Ojon Tunu Elastik Cleanser and Conditioner is made from Tunu extract, Crambe Seed Oil and other rich exotic inredients. These potions are free of sulfates, silicone, artificial colors and preservatives leaving you with silky hair that's super clean and extra bouncy.

T3 Refresh Volumizing Dry Shampoo is a favorite of busy models who have little time to primp between shows. You simply spray the T3 Refresh to your scalp especially, then I like to spray it randomly around my hair and then flip my head over and brush vigorously. This product will refresh your hair and take out all excess oil and odors from your scalp. Your tresses will look salon worthy in a flash. It's a great way to resurrect that perfect blowout you had two days ago without stripping your hair of moisture.

Cologne, A Man's Essential

Cologne is an essential element to all men and should be used in conjunction with your daily hygienic regimen. I'm sure every man, before going out on the town, has applied cologne not knowing that he just sprayed his worst nightmare for everyone to remember. Finding the right cologne can be very simple. It is the scent that's sexy, not cheap, manly, not Brut, and powerful but not pungent. Keep in mind that cologne can be viewed at as an accessory, making the look complete.

Here are some helpful tips to guide your search for the right cologne:

• -Never buy cologne just because it smells good on someone else. Cologne interacts with skin differently depending on the texture. Oily skin tends to interact with cologne causing the scent to because stronger and longer lasting. Dry skin absorbs cologne causing re-application often. Melanin in the skin has an effect on scent. Darker skin tends to make fragrances smell a bit sweeter.




• When smelling cologne for the first time, remember the three scent levels. High is the level of the cologne when first applied, which is the first impression. Waiting 10 to 15 minutes and smell again, the cologne has reached mid level. Low is the most important level in smelling cologne. After one hour, smell the area again, now the scent has absorbed and mixed with your skin. This is when you determine if this cologne is right for you.




• Buy more than one brand of cologne. Just like shoes...you need more then one scent! It’s good to have at the very least, three different types.

Here are some brilliant colognes to help in your search:

Cartier

Dior

Giorgio Armani

Prada

Issey Miyake
Dolce & Gabbana

Beauty Product Review of the Week: Dior Gloss

I always wanted the Dior Princess Ring but by the time I went to snatch one up they were discontinued. Okay so maybe it's not the brightest idea to wear lip gloss on your ring finger during the summer heat, talk about sticky fingers. But here's something that is sensible and chic. The Dior Extreme Shine Gloss is quite the looker. What better way is there to show off your designer savvy and touch up your make-up in style. Oh and by the way the gloss is complimentary to all skin tones. http://www.sephora.com/
