Holiday Makeup: The Golden Girl
When it comes to holiday makeup, all that glitters truly is gold. There are few shades more universally flattering, and the light-diffusing properties of metallics make skin look soft, warm, and undeniably inviting. There's no better time of year to deck yourself out in a little royal glitter, whether you want to glow in soft candlelight or correct the harshness of fluorescent office lighting.
Are You Over the Gold Beauty Trend?
I love that metallics have made a huge comeback, but what I had expected to be a blip in time has lasted well over two years. With some of the collections I've been able to take a peek at for Fall 2008 (especially the one from Chanel), it looks like heavy metals are here to stay, especially decadent gold beauty treats.
I had a love affair with gold polish ever since I saw Heidi Montag and Lauren Conrad from The Hills rocking gilded nails, but now I'm getting a little bit tired of it.

The $650 Orlane Crème Royale
The skincare masters behind Orlane, a Parisian high-end beauty brand, has developed an extremely decadent antiaging cream fit for a princess.
Crème Royale is made from a blend of ancient Egyptian and Chinese medicines such as royal jelly, a pure-honey extract, which helps brighten and hydrate skin and boost longevity, and liquid 24-karat gold, which contains firming, antiwrinkle, and antioxidant benefits.
The result is a deep-penetrating and intensely hydrating cream that promotes healing and prevents sagging.
