Incipio's New Case: Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board

geeksugar — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 11:00:28 -0800

The Incipio Feather iPhone Case ($20) might make me give up my current Incipio Sleeve, since this outer case is one of the first that's not only super thin, but also says it's super strong and light.

The ultrastrong polymer is the good-lookin' Superman here, and so thin that it can be used with most docks.

Plus! Looks like it would slide right into a rear jean pocket.

English Eccentric: Dunhill Launch New Scent

BellaSugarUK — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 10:00:00 -0800

Dunhill is arguably one of the most well respected and traditional British labels. Devised in 1893, it began as a motor accessory brand to appeal to the quintessential British gentleman. Before long Dunhill became known for selling all sorts of paraphenalia such as fishing rods, pipes, sporting equipment, stationary and classic motoring gloves.

This Sunday (23rd November) Dunhill is unveiling it's latest project. It's an unashamedly masculine scent which will be exclusive to Harrods, before rolling out nationwide in February 2009. Following in the footsteps of the brand's first fragrance, which was launched in 1934, Dunhill Black (£42 100 ml) aims to appeal to the iconic English gentleman. Will Andrews, Fragrance Scientist on the Dunhill Fragrance Creation Team explains, “We wanted to create something with surprising masculinity. To combine an edgy green note with a sensual base.”

New Product Alert: Lancome Colour Ideal Powder

BellaSugarUK — Fri, 21 Nov 2008 01:00:00 -0800

This season's perfect skin is all about a matte complexion that still glows. Banish any thoughts of a shiny face and follow the lead on the catwalks for super flawless skin that's the ideal canvas for some of this autumn's more dramatic trends. To make it a little easier Lancome have just launched Colour Ideal Powder, (£24) which is a silky pressed powder with jaw-droppingly natural results.

The powder contains translucent fillers which enhance the luminosity of the skin and even out the skin tone. Expect a natural film of coverage that feels light on the face and hides any imperfections or discolouration. The product actually adapts to your skin tone, making it look like you have naturally perfect skin.

Vinyl-izing CD Kit: Love It or Leave It?

geeksugar — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 15:45:36 -0800

Some of us still keep vinyl around, and then some of us just romanticize vinyl. If that's you, then forget your dream of buying a turntable and just hook up a Vintage Vinyl CD Packaging Kit ($17)!These are great for making mixes and giving CDs or DVDs as gifts for the holidays and then "wrapping" them as records, or for your own personal stash of compact discs. On the other hand, you may have already digitized all your music, and find these superfluous, and if you're that kind of person, the magic of vinyl probably doesn't really get you, does it? Weigh in below!

Crumpler SLR Camera Bag Holds Lenses, Too

geeksugar — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 09:01:23 -0800

A lot of you really liked last week's stylish DSLR bag, the Acme SLR Bowler Camera Bag, but some voiced concern about there needing to be room for lenses as well.

I couldn't agree more, so I found one that accommodates it all and still looks pretty cute: The Crumpler 4 Million Dollar SLR Bag.

Despite the name, the bag is just $59, and while it's a bit sportier than I prefer, it's still inconspicuous as a camera bag, so it won't point thieves right to your expensive cargo.

New Product Alert: Credit Crunch Friendly Eco Hairdryer

BellaSugarUK — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 08:00:00 -0800

At a time of soaring energy bills, sky high mortgage re-payments and general economising, it’s time to invest in products that give genuine value for money. The revolutionary new Eco Dry from BaByliss (£19) is not only kind to the environment, it’s also good for your pocket too!

The Eco Dry uses half the energy of a standard 2000W hairdryer, whilst drying your hair just as fast — saving electricity and therefore saving you money on your electricity bill. Recent research conducted by BaByliss indicates that by using the Eco Dry for 10 minutes everyday, instead of your regular 2000W home hair dryer, saves approximately £10 per year on energy bills. This means the £19 eco-friendly hair dryer pays for itself in less than two years.

I was very impressed with the dryer too. It might not look as fancy as some high-end dryers, but it was certainly up to the job. Plus anything that makes you look more beautiful without costing the earth is good by me. How about you, would you be willing to make the switch to using this product?

Bella Brand: ZO Skin Health

BellaSugarUK — Thu, 20 Nov 2008 02:00:00 -0800

Recently I was lucky enough to meet with skincare guru and expert dermatologist Dr Zein Obagi to talk about how to prevent skin ageing. Dr Obagi is often referred to as a maverick and a visionary; with a vast array of experience working with plastic surgeons, doctors and dermatologists he is undoubtedly one of the leading experts in skin health. Dr Obagi is also a charismatic lecturer and teacher, as well as having successfully corrected a wide range of skin conditions for his clients, which range from facial melasma and acne scars to deep wrinkles and unsightly age spots.

This month he has launched ZO Skin Health, which is available in the UK exclusively at Harrods and Selfridges. Unlike traditional anti-ageing brands, ZO Skin Health aims to set off a reaction whereby the skin nourishes, repairs and maintains itself. For what to expect from the line plus Dr Obagi's philosophy behind the range, just

Trend Alert: Feathery Friends

FabSugar — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 08:00:22 -0800

It's all about texture, and more texture. Meet my new feathery friends. The hybrid of feather and fluff makes for a fun vintage look. Check out how Kate rocked an extra voluminous bronze Burberry frock, while Nicole Kidman radiated in a white shaggy mini by L'Wren Scott at the Australia premiere. If you're not keen on wearing this look head-to-toe, try separates like Tomei in her Alberta Ferretti skirt. Take the plumage and shake a tail feather.
