“Kau seorang penyanyi yang bagus,”tambahnya.

Sebelum meninggalkan panggung, Javier mendapatkan kaos dari Daniel Mananta.

video: how to get the perfect salon manicure at home

doing my own manicures at home not only saves me money {and since i like to change my polish 2-3 times a week, i guess you could say a lot of money}, but is a way for me to relax, pamper myself and end up with a result i'm more than happy with...

these days nail polish is like lipgloss, a must-have, low-cost beauty indulgence that makes it easy to change up your look. but if you're not confident in your diy mani skills, i have something for you...

this video from Mary of A Love Tart was brought to my attention by my blogging friend, Ashley, who herself is a nail polish lover {butter london and deborah lippmann are among her fave brands} and gives herself amazing manicures frequently...

so of course, i had to pass this on!

this tutorial features splendid tips, tricks and product recommendations {CND Stickey, Seche Vite and Sally Hansen Cuticle Remover are all featured, and happen to be my personal faves} to teach you how to give yourself a better-than-salon manicure. this is a must-see, beauties!!

enjoy and leave a comment to share your thoughts...



p.s., Mary mentions in this video how to do a post-manicure clean-up on cuticles ~ check it out here! :)

Video: What's In Joanna Coles' Handbag?

in any case, i love her even more for doing this!

Shiri Appleby's Beauty Must-Haves

since i'm a huge fan of the new show Life Unexpected (mondays @ 8pm on the CW!!), i was pleasantly surprised to find a fun interview with one of its stars, Shiri Appleby, on US Magazine's website. yes, i do read the celebrity gossip, but mainly i go to their beauty and style page-- it's pretty good!

in the interview, Shiri shares her beauty secrets and must-haves, and i had to share them with you. so what does she love when it comes to beauty products?

for starters, Shiri's top beauty secret (that she learned from a pro) is that she makes sure to always take off her makeup before bed. her cleanser of choice is Cetaphil and when she's too tired to cleanse her skin, she uses makeup removal wipes. another beauty secret: she applies sunscreen every day.

Shiri is currently obsessed with a bright pink cheek and likes to use Bobbi Brown's Sheer Color Cheek Tint. to keep her look fresh, she keeps makeup minimal and loves mark. Mini Mark It Stick Hook Up Stick for Lips; to play up her eyes, she loves using mascara then adds false lashes on the corners of her eyes to really make them pop.

to put the cherry on top, Shiri's desert island product pick is one that i use every day and night myself...

Smith's Rosebud Salve!

Behind the Scenes at the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Runway Show

hosted by Frederic Fekkai, Lisa Love and Sally Singer, the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund held its annual runway show featuring 10 finalists competing for the chance to receive a year of mentorship and support in launching their careers.

discover the inspiration for the hairstyles-- created by Frederic Fekkai-- along with the fashion fund finalist inspiration for their collections in the info and video below.


look #1: the wet look



the first look is a sculptural, edgy ponytail inspired by some of the graphic trends shown in the collections. described as modern, young and sexy, the texture tells a story through the wet and twisted hard hair. to add an effortless look, pieces are left out in front.

to achieve this look:

*use your hands as styling tools to create this piecey look.

*apply Fekkai COIFF Extra Control Styling Gel to damp hair and comb through with fingers, no blow dry required.

*pull hair into textured sections before twisting together into a low ponytail just above the nape of the neck.

*secure the twist with bobby pins, letting shorter pieces fall to the side.

*shape the hair into a long sleek ponytail.

look #2: the dry look



the second look is a modern, angelic take on a tousled, bohemian style. the hair is full and voluminous with an airy soft texture that allows for movement; it's dramatic, yet romantic and very wearable. pieces are left in front to frame the face and accentuate the jewelry shown in the collections.

to achieve this look:

*apply Fekkai COIFF Strong Hold Mousse to damp hair and scrunch with fingers as you blow dry completely to create the wild texture.

*wrap hair in big sections around twist-ties (fabric curling rods) to create volume at the roots and soft curl for movement.

*tease hair at the roots using a fine comb, and apply Fekkai Au Naturel Powder Clean Dry Shampoo to add thickness and extra structure, but without added weight.

*pin the sides to the back of the head and secure with bobby pins.

*to secure height at the crown, finish with a fine mist of Fekkai Full Blown Volume Lifting Hairspray.

find Fekkai products at Sephora (in store and online), Bloomingdales, Saks Fifth Avenue and other fine retailers. to find a retailer near you, visit Fekkai.com
