Skin-Sational! We Review Chanel Les Beiges Healthy Glow Sheer Powder …

Thu, 16 May 2013 12:31PM

Healthy skin has come to mean so many different things. To some, it’s a crystal-clear, even-toned, almost-brighter-than-white complexion. To others, it’s a glimmery gleam, courtesy of several slatherings of illuminator. And, to others still, it’s about lustrously tanned-up skin. But what if you simply want to look good in your own skin? Like yourself … just… more

Can you believe it’s May already, Primpers? Where has this year gone? While the months of January to April brought about a heap of new beauty goodies that we wanted to add to cart, May is proving to be equally as fruitful (beauty-ful?).

How to: Build a Classic Fragrance Wardrobe

Wed, 1 May 2013 4:33PM

Think of your wardrobe, and the clothes that have stood the test of time (and trends). I’m guessing there are three or so little black dresses, another, slightly fancier frock (the one you tend to wheel out to every wedding), a couple of white shirts, a black jacket, some tailored pants and a few pairs… more

Five New Celebrity Red Lipstick Looks to Try Now (and the Products to Recreate Them!)

Mon, 29 April 2013 3:28PM

My perfect red lipstick shade (Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet Luminous Matte Lipstick in La Fascinante, $50, 1300 CHANEL, in case you were wondering) is like my makeup equivalent of the wardrobe-essential LBD. It’s my go-to for a night out on the town when I need something extra special, but it’s also the one I wear… more

Happy Friday, Primpers! Hope you have all had a lovely week. Mine was fabulous, thanks so much for asking.

What to Buy This Week: Chanel Avant-Première Collection

Mon, 15 April 2013 12:27PM

I love a romantic background to a beauty collection – the more glamorous the better. Back in the 1930s, Mademoiselle Coco Chanel was consistently wooed by film directors from both Hollywood and Europe to create costumes for major motion picture stars like Gloria Swanson. The new Chanel Avant-Première collection pays tribute to Chanel’s signature aesthetic,… more

Rad Under-the-Radar Beauty Moves

Tue, 19 March 2013 9:18AM

Here at PRIMPED, you will often find headlines along the ilk of “How To look Over-The-Top, Come-Hither Hot” or “How To Nail The-I’m-So-Natural-I-Practically-Just-Crawled-Out-Of-A-Daisy-Patch” looks. But rarely do we go the middle ground; the under-the-radar looks that get you only as noticed as you wish to be. Model Hilary Rhoda struck the perfect balance recently. You know, it’s… more

Emerald Eyes for St Patrick’s Day. Plus, Some Other Great Green Beauty Buys.

Fri, 15 March 2013 1:50PM

You didn’t think I could leave St Patrick’s Day (AKA this coming Sunday) alone without an ode to green eye makeup, did you? I mean, I was the one seriously advocating green & gold eyes back in January, for Australia Day. But I have good reason to argue this particular makeup case right now. Because, you see, St… more

Wed, 6 March 2013 1:37PM

Let’s start by set ting the scene at the Chanel show, shall we? Inside the Grand Palais in Paris, Karl Lagerfeld and Co. erected an enormous rotating black and gold globe, with miniature interlocking CCs placed where Chanel boutiques are located around the world: Jessica Chastain and the like sat front row, while models hit the catwalk… more
