Would You Be Into Kate Moss Hair and Makeup Products?
Kate Moss has been at the center of the modeling world for 20 years, and we've seen her as the face of all sorts of brands, from the prestigious Gucci, Dior, and Louis Vuitton down to drugstore favorite, Rimmel. Recently, the supermodel, who admits she's "not traditionally a beauty" to WWD, has just launched Vintage ($23-$53), a fruity floriental inspired by her love of vintage fashions.
But as you might know, this isn't the first scent we've seen from Kate.
The New Harajuku Lovers Are Sunny and Sweet
Fans of Gwen Stefani's Harajuku Lovers fragrances should love this one. After the success of her Snow Bunnies flanker dolls, Gwen's putting out five new, bikini-clad versions for next Spring. Each has a new scent that matches the personality and fragrance family of the original doll, but adds lighter, more summery notes.
Reformulation Station: Why Your Favorite Perfume Smells Different
Have you ever loved a scent, forgotten about it, then come back a few years later only to find that you aren't at all fond of it anymore? Recently, I was reading about the new version of YSL Opium, and it made me think about the prevalence of scent retooling. Most fragrances that stay out for more than a couple of years will be reformulated as a way to freshen the scent and attract a new audience, with new notes and sometimes an entirely different scent. Fragrance companies, however, don't usually make that clear when they relaunch a product.
Michael Kors Makes a Very Hollywood Cosmetics Line
Designer and Project Runway judge Michael Kors is getting pretty with a new color cosmetics collection that's due in January. The makeup line, which was created in collaboration with Estée Lauder, is part of the Very Hollywood brand and is designed to be the makeup equivalent of Michael's recently released perfume. The collection comes in two palettes, a pink and a beige-coral, with complementary blushes, sheer lip "sheens," and eyeshadow kits for each.
SJP Channels Carrie B. For Her New Fragrance

Nars Celebrates 15 Years With 15 Stars and a Book
When couples celebrate their 15-year anniversary, the traditional gift they might give their mate is crystal. But when François Nars celebrates his company's 15th anniversary, he makes a book, with all proceeds going straight to charities. And as you might expect, it's not your ordinary coffee-table publication.
Glamping: Pretend Camping For Rich People
For their Milan Fashion Week show, twins Dean and Dan Caten took "glamping," or glam camping, as the theme at their Dsquared show. While the looks were very pretty, real glamorous camping obviously involves having a $200,000 RV and several makeup and hair professionals along on your trip, making it about as real as unicorn tears for anyone who's ever actually been camping. The glamping look, which consists of glossy pink lips, casually braided hair that only looks messy, and glowing skin, has very little do do with the chapped lips, dirty hair, and oily skin that usually come along with the camping experience.
Coming Soon: Mariah Carey Forever
When she's not in a row with Eminem, breaking records for the highest amount of number one singles, or acting in Precious, (the highly anticipated film due out this November), Mariah Carey is selling perfume.
After much success with her first fragrance, M by Mariah Carey in 2007, the songstress is set to launch her sophomore scent, Forever ($42 to $65), this September. The line will also include a parfum ($250!) and a body lotion ($28).
Carol's Daughter Is a Disney Girl

Tsumori Chisato Designs a Princely Collection For Shu Uemura
Back in high school, Mademoiselle Wood made it a requirement that we all read Le Petit Prince in French — a daunting task at the time. But I soon I became wrapped up in the dreamlike, surprisingly profound, world of this little prince and his similarly unpredictable companions.
Fast-forward to the present day, and I'm captivated by The Little Prince once again, as Japanese designer Tsumori Chisato is set to launch her own adaptation of the classic novella in collaboration with Shu Uemura.
