IT’S ALL IN THE BRUSH

The secret to a well made-up face is all in the brush, and Make Up For Ever has launched the Artisan Brush Collection of 76 hand crafted synthetic brushes to help you achieve the look you want. The brushes are organized by their designated use for foundation, eyes, lips or artistic.

FRESH SCENT FOR WOMEN

Eau de Lacoste Pour Femme, the new signature fragrance for women from the legendary brand, is designed to evoke the crisp, clean scent of cotton reminiscent of the pique cotton, crocodile shirts for which the brand is known. Notes of mandarin, bergamot, orange flower and vanilla, combine to create a light sensual fragrance that is simple and classic. It is available for $56 at Lacoste boutiques in Lenox Square and Perimeter Mall or online at www.lacoste.com.
