How-To: Make Frightfully Cool Fake Blood
Take a tip from these delightful zombies — good fake blood can be tricky to make, especially since most recipes leave you with something too bright and runny that stains everything. Never fear, though, I've hunted down a recipe for fake blood that's non-toxic, won't stain skin (though it will stain clothes, so watch out), and is thick enough to apply anywhere. Plus it's super easy to make and there are only three cheap ingredients.

From making your own bubble bath to a wide variety of ideas for creating your own body scrubs, isn't it apparent that I love me some DIY formulations?

Viktor & Rolf Try to Outdo Flowerbomb With Eau Mega
Flowerbomb, Viktor & Rolf's first fragrance, has been a cult hit since it came out a few years ago. But this week, the brand quietly released its second scent, Eau Mega.

Reader Hottpink sung the praises of this moisturizing cleanser, and here's what she had to say:

As the head makeup artist on ABC's crime dramedy Castle, Debbie Zoller creates everyday makeup looks for the show's main characters. But, seeing that the program is not without its fair share of murder mysteries, Zoller must also create blood spatters, prosthetic detached fingers, and mangled body parts, often working in the most unusual of situations.

Bella Brand: Saffron James
Former fashion magazine editor Katherine Growney grew up on the picturesque island of Hawaii, eventually landing writing jobs in New York City, roughly 5,000 miles east of her hometown. It wasn't until she began working as a beauty editor at Elle that a chat with a fellow staffer began the sparks that eventually would lead to the start of her own business.

16 Sexy Silver Foxes
Recently, I caught a rerun of Paula's Party on the Food Network, where silver-haired TV personality Jay Manuel, of ANTM fame, dished out hair color tips to fellow silver-haired host Paula Deen. If I'm not mistaken, I believe he said he uses a toner by the name of "Silver Lady" to get that distinctive lustrous shade. This got me to thinking about other silvered stars.
