Forget The Selfie! Miley Cyrus, Miranda Kerr And Jessica Alba Are All About The Healthie

Posted on January 18, 2014 at 6:54 pm

Ahh, the humble selfie. It’s caused us hours of frustration, from those boastful ‘legs on the beach’ shots to the boorish ‘outfit of the day’ snaps. We’ve also had a laugh thanks to this Instagram phenomenon – with a special mention to the hilarious celebrity photobomb and ultra cute pets pics – who doesn’t want to see a dog wearing sunglasses But the latest selfie trend – which we’ve cleverly dubbed the ‘healthie’ – is a little more serious.

Not content with making us feel inferior with their polished red carpet looks, some of the world’s most stylish stars have put us to shame with their exercise regimes. Whether it’s a yoga session on the beach or a workout at the gym, A-listers from Jessica Alba to Miley Cyrus have given us a behind the scenes glimpse at their gruelling training routines and they’re certainly not afraid of working up a little sweat for the camera.

Jessica Alba: Aren’t u supposed to feel better after a #workout #motivated2work #day2

Take Alba for example, a woman no one could accuse of being lazy, who’s currently on a self-imposed mission to hit the gym Every.Single.Day. Even after a night out in LA with Derek Blasberg the actress remained focused and ignored her hangover for the sake of a session on the treadmill. Similarly Miley Cyrus has built up an incredible bod (which she’s certainly not afraid to flaunt) through regular gym sessions and a dedication to yoga.

Speaking of yoga bunnies, the world’s biggest supermodels wouldn’t be without their daily Sun Salutations. Miranda Kerr, Gisele Bündchen and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley have all revealed photos of themselves doing yoga on Instagram, whether that’s a challenging arm balance like Rosie in Adho Mukha Vrksasana, a back bending heart opener like Miranda in Urdhva Dhanurasana or gentle twist like Gisele in Ardha Matsyendrasana.

Rosie even revealed the spiritual benefits of her practice as she shared a meditation pose with the caption “peace”.

5 More Reasons To Love Aerin Lauder: A New Range Of Fragrances!

Posted on January 16, 2014 at 12:57 pm

For Aerin Lauder, the world of beauty is pretty much in her blood, so we were over the moon to hear that Aerin’s exclusive make-up collection will be expanded come November with the addition of five stellar fragrances, as if one wasn’t enough…

When Aerin Lauder launched her global luxury lifestyle brand back in 2011, including homewear, footwear and jewellery, we couldn’t wait to get our hands on her beauty line, too, and from 2012 onwards, her ultra-chic palettes and brushes have had us Grazia ladies truly smitten. Breaking news this morning reveals that Aerin now plans to make her first foray into fragrance, and she’s doing it in a big way, with a quintet of gorgeously feminine fragrances!

Aerin says, “One of my earliest memories is fragrance. When I think about certain people and moments in my life, fragrance is always involved- whether it’s smelling honeysuckle for the first time or gardenias in my hair when I got married. They all evoke memories and stories and moods”. Lauder believes that an entire fragrance wardrobe was key to her collection because she wanted to provide a scent for every mood and time of year. The only problem we’re going to have is deciding which is our favourite!

The attention to detail in the packaging is typical of the gorgeously feminine Aerin- each glass bottle is topped by a different coloured stone that reflects the colour of one of the ingredients in the scent. What’s more, the outer boxes feature patterns used in Lauder fabrics- we love! With fragrance and lifestyle blended together so beautifully, we just cannot wait to get our pretty paws all over these. The perfect autumn boudoir essential, we say.

5 Reasons Why We Love Aerin Lauder

1. Her grandma is Estee Lauder- now, that really is pretty cool. Guaranteed street-cred, we think.

2. Beauty is in her DNA- she’s been watching beauty trends for the past 20 years, so has some seriously impressive knowledge about how women want to look and what they want out of a product.

3. She’s made beauty effortless and easy- Aerin make-up started off as a capsule collection made up of seven essential products- saving our beauty-bags from splitting at the seams.

4. She has two teenage sons and is still the epitome of femininity

5. She loves Japanese food- Aerin’s staple lunch al desko is picked up daily from her local Japanese deli. She even eats it in bed with her husband

This Weekend’s Best Beauty Buys

Posted on January 6, 2014 at 8:24 am

Lipcote, £3.69

‘When a product’s been around for 50 years, you know it’s a goody. [a href=”http://www.boots.com/en/Lipcote_795/” target=”_blank”>Lipcote[/a] always intrigued me as a youngster, what was that cardboard box concealing During last year’s lipstick revival I was wearing varying shades of red every day, and couldn’t understand why my lip liner wasn’t holding my lipstick as the beautician had promised. It turns out the one thing I was missing was Lipcote, and in this sweltering heat you don’t stand a chance of keeping your lipstick on your lips without it. Much like a top coat, you just need a sweep to seal in the colour, which will keep you going until the morning after; a festival must-have for sure.’

Hailee Steinfeld Goes Geek-Chic With Comi-Con Manicure Plus Our Favourite A-list Nails From Katy Perry, Beyonce And More

Posted on January 4, 2014 at 11:29 am

If there’s one thing we love it’s adorned finger tips; yawn to the French manicure. The latest celeb to join the kooky nail club is Hailee Steinfeld, who was spotted rocking geek chic nails at Comic-Con yesterday.

The Enders Game actress showed up to this year’s event with a whole host of wonderfulness on her fingers, including comic book “Pows”, Lichtenstein inspired eyes and recreations of Dragon and Salamander – from the forthcoming American science fiction film based on the novel of the same name, in which she plays the character Petra Arkanian – to name a few of the creations we spotted on her finger tips.

The nail art trend has been steadily burgeoning, with a host of celebs using their fingers to further express themselves. Katy Perry showed her support to President Obama in the run up to the Presidential elections with a patriotic Obama mani, while Lindsay Lohan had “fu** you” written into her nails while on trial in court. How telling. Beyonce and Katy Perry (again) both used their nails to show how much they love their hubbies, well, ex-hubby in Perry’s case, with photos of their faces embossed on their talons.

Check out the quirkiest celeb manicures to be found on interweb. How do you rock the look
