Angelina Jolie In Guerlain’s New Campaign

A month ago was announced that Terrence Malick was planning to direct a perfume commercial for Guerlain starring Angelina Jolie. As the new face of the French company’s campaign for their fragrance Mon Guerlain, Jolie is donating her entire paycheck to a charity of her choosing, and now they’ve kicked things off with the launch of the ad.

 We create perfumes for the women we admire,” Jacques Guerlain said in a statement, whilst the brand’s master perfumer Thierry Wasser said he drew inspiration from Jolie to create a fragrance expressing the “notes of a woman”. The campaign film is directed by Terrence Malick.

Mon Guerlain, the house’s new fragrance, is a tribute to today’s femininity – a strong, free and sensual femininity, inspired by Angelina Jolie. Mon Guerlain is characterized by the freshness of Lavender Carla, an exceptional variety cultivated in Provence, which contrasts with the voluptuousness of the Sambac jasmine from India and the Australian Album Sandalwood, associated with the sensual Vanilla Tahitensis of Papua New Guinea.

Sarah Jessica Parker Launched Her New Fragrance ‘Stash’

The 51-year-old Sex And The City star launched her new fragrance, ‘Stash’ yesterday in New York city, looking amazingly stylish, as usual, in a black floaty dress.

 She started her foray in the cosmetics world with the gorgeous scent ‘Lovely’ back in 2005.

 Speaking to MailOnline, she said: “We started working on this ten years ago, right after we launched my debut scent, Lovely. At the time, I was very interested in a genderless fragrance but it wasn’t something that people were wanting to do at the time so I waited and now we have finally done it.’

 I’ve been wearing it for years but it was a working progress so I couldn’t tell anyone what it was – and now when they compliment my scent, I can tell them it’s mine and it feels great!”

The new product is currently exclusive to Ulta and is available in 30 ml ($50), 50 ml ($75), and 100 ml ($85) sprays, a 0.34 oz rollerball ($25) and a 30 ml/$50 “Elixir” (fragrant oil in a dropper bottle). As Parker says herself, Stash calls for liberal application; keep that in mind as you choose a size.

Purple Lipstick

Let’s get real here: purple isn’t exactly the shade or color you’d go for if you wanted a lip color that you can sport easily but does that mean you can’t wear this gorgeous, majestic color on your lips anymore. If you’re looking for something unique to add to your makeup collection or if you’re looking for something to add to you makeup look that would help you make a statement, why not give purple lipstick a try? Here are some tips on how to wear purple lipstick in real life.

FIND A SHADE THAT COMPLEMENTS YOUR SKIN TONE – just like any other lipstick color, purple lipstick comes in a wide variation of shades so your mission, really, is not to pick one and make it work but rather to find that one shade that will look really, really good with your skin tone and rock it. Dark, vampy, purple berry colors look great on just about anyone so if you haven’t already found your perfect purple shade yet, you can stick to that for a while.

KEEP THE REST OF YOUR MAKEUP SIMPLE AND FRESH – purple lips are a statement in and of their own so it’s important that you keep the rest of your makeup simple and fresh to avoid having too much going on with your look. When wearing purple lips, opt for a neutral look for the rest of your face. It will keep your face looking bright and lively while also allowing your purple lips to take center stage without looking obnoxious.
