    Hot In The Hive: Sephora Blockbuster Palette

    It might be a little early to start shopping for Christmas gifts (unless you're an overachiever... or just really smart and on top of things), but just in case you want to cross me off your list ahead of time, here's what you can get me! Think of the Sephora Blockbuster Palette as the ultimate fix for makeup addicts. Like a shiny new espresso machine for caffeine junkies, or Willy Wonka's chocolate river to an insatiable chocoholic, this thing is the mother lode of cosmetics combo sets. With more than 84 eyeshadows, 60 lip glosses, and a ridiculously impressive array of blushes, eyeliners, and all the necessary applicators, you'll be more than set to achieve the alleged 60,000 different looks possible. And the added bonus? Everything folds and packs neatly into its compact mirrored case. Cue the "hallelujah" chorus!


    Price: $48

    Kim Kardashian's playing a smart game! The reality show star and gossip circuit regular has signed up with OK! Magazine to talk all things beauty. After finally taking the plunge in the world of brunette-to-blond and back again (and applying what must be gobs of lipgloss and mascara before every event), Kim's definitely qualified. Why is this a smart move from Kim, and not just for the obvious extra notoriety and attention? Now she might be able to keep herself in-the-know about nasty rumors that come up about her, and she will be able to avoid any particularly egregious lies being spread by certain magazines. We love Kim's look, and if there's one thing she's got down pat, it's got to be makeup! We'll be reading her tips and critiquing on the regular, but we have no doubt that she's succeed.

    Indulge Your Chocolate Craving With Matte Mocha Shades

    Say "so long" to the shimmering bronze and sandy shades associated with summer beauty. Fall makeup is all about the rich matte shades, reminiscent of a nice warm mug of hot chocolate or your morning mocha. Though neutral matte colors may seem slightly "blah" in comparison to your shimmer dust and glitter eyeliner, these velvety pigments do wonders in warming up your face and skintone when worn alone, and can even be punched up when paired with a touch of gold gloss or highlighter. Go for a softer version of the smokey eye with a dark chocolate shadow, or sweep a rosy mocha sheen on your cheeks for a fall-festive flush. Be careful though, these shades won't only have you tearing up the makeup department -- they'll probably make you want to take a detour to the nearest candy aisle, too. Take a look at the slideshow for some hot chocolate makeup picks!

    Eyelash extension treatments are this year's "it" beauty treatment. It's a semi-permanent extension that gives your lashes a huge lift - without makeup! Just imagine, having long, gorgeous, flirty lashes for a few months. The initial treatment can take two hours run up to $500, but it's totally worth it for a fantastic look sans makeup. Madonna's have diamond studs on them and cost around $10,000, while Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan opt for the much subtler mink version. For a less serious commitment, you can get a semi-permanent lash extension for $50 that lasts around ten days - perfect for a special occasion or vacation. For $45, I Love My Lashes offers an at-home treatment, which takes about thirty minutes to apply, and lasts up to fifteen days. Why not get a few girlfriends together and make a night of it? It's practically the same costs as cabs and a night out! Don't trust yourself? Check lashpros.com to find a professional near you!

    Beauty Buzz: Work Those Toes

    I'm sure you guys have heard about YogaToes, and if you're like me, you've probably been wondering "what the€¦..?" I've had this strange fascination with them where they make me simultaneously scared and curious, wondering what are these strange jelly-like contraptions that look like they should be used for a pedicure? So I ordered myself a pair to see what they were all about. The idea is that it's like exercise for your toes so you prevent situations like hammertoes and bunions. No, I don't have either, but I do find myself in stiletto heels more often than not and thought a little exercise for my footsies couldn't hurt. The verdict: they are fabulous! They work your toes so they just end up looking healthier, just like they say, exercise for your toes, except you don't have to do anything! Anyone else use them? If so, let me know in comments!
