Choosing a nail polish for your wedding day is about the biggest nail decision you'll ever have to make. These nudey-sheer shades that I've chosen are some of my all-time favourite classical colours. Pick a buff shade if you have pale skin, a pinkier shade if you have medium skin, or a peach shade if you have darker skin.

Calling all sun goddesses. You know that I'll never advocate baking yourself in the sun, and that's why I'm such a proponent of SPF. 'Tis the season to get your glow on, so let's practice some safe sunning by means of bronzers.

Lily Cole joined the Rimmel family this year alongside Kate Moss and Sophie Ellis-Bextor. The flame haired model is now appearing in their ad campaign for Lycra pro nail polish.
The new nail colours are different to the standard polish because they feature a maxi brush that ensures the whole nail is covered with one sweep!

Grunge goth beauty was never supposed to be about the money, so what's with this season's Glam Goth makeup looks (not to mention clothes, thanks Luella) costing so much? I'm not one for scrimping and saving on makeup, but as we are sliding into a recession it makes sense to worry our pretty little heads about prices, every now and then.
Cue my credit crunch-friendly pick of the best products to get autumn/winter's soft goth look, on the cheap.

Kate Moss has one of those faces I never tire of seeing. Whether she's posing moodily or doing the sexy-schlubby thing, she always looks intriguing.

OK, so I'll admit she looks a little scary in this picture, but Sophie Ellis Bextor was working the bright lights, bold colour trend to the max, as she partied at G-A-Y, this weekend.
I'm definitely not suggesting you go all-out, like Sophie, and copy her drag queen-esque false eyelashes, or rather scary wide-eyed look – but it's great to see a normally fresh-faced, girl-next-door type, working a more on trend, makeup look.
As the new face of Rimmel, you'd expect that Sophie may have been learning some makeup artist tips, as well as how to take her makeup up a notch, for a big party night.
