Top 10 Emmy Awards Looks You Can Wear Now

Not a celebrity? Doesn’t matter! We share how to make red carpet hair and makeup looks wearable for every day

Sure, it would be nice to walk the red carpet like Heidi Klum, Kim Kardashian or Drew Barrymore, but most of us will never get the chance. However, that doesn’t mean we can’t have red carpet-worthy style every day, right? That’s why we pulled together easy-to-do tips from celebrity hair and makeup artists for our favorite Emmy Awards looks. See looks

Thank God it’s Friday! The Emmy looks were much more wearable than the VMA’s. Enjoy the beauty bubble and I look forward to meeting you this Sunday at the Arizona Bridal Week event in Tempe at Mad Cap theatre. Which, if you’ve been around for a while, you’ll remember that as the old Harkins theatre, just behind P.F. Changs and next to Chase bank. There is a parking garage conveniently located next to it!

Remember! I have two demos at 11 and 1:15 pm, and the bride who comes up to have her make up done in the demo gets a free Skindinavia bridal makeup spray.

Plus! I have 2 free V.I.B. passes ready to give away! Email for details!

Quiz: What Is Your Must-Shave Profile?

Find out if you’re a silky smooth goddess or a shaving slacker with this quiz

Are you obsessed with being flawlessly stubble-free? Or do you neglect your pretty legs? Take this quiz to get tips, tricks and great product advice customized for your shaving habits. Take the quiz

Adventure is afoot! The beauty bubble today details what you MUST shave in order to survive. I have some opinions about this and love that there is a country song or maybe it’s an album where the singer says “I shaved for this?”

Which is aprapo to the saying, “I put makeup on for this?”. Last night was Amy’s surprise birthday party and she was beyond surprised. In fact, while I was rushing her and driving faster than normal which means I was nearing the speed limit from the bottom side of the numbers: she asked herself “I put makeup on for this?” .

Little did she know that in moments she would walk into our favorite spot to 18 of her friends and family. It was so awesome!

Speaking of awesome, shouts and kudos to photographer Jason Greenbaum for his snaps at the All 5 After 5 Retail Therapy event hosted at Banana Republic in the Kierland Commons shopping center just north of Scottsdale.

Now…some samples and giveaways are coming in and I’ll pass them along as they do.
Plus, I have the “Everyday ladies guide to Fall beauty trend 2009″ coming out this week.
Until then, enjoy the shave quiz!

Thanks for your great comments about the Alba Botanica Rainforest line! I too am enjoying it!
For Back to School this year, there is an amalgamation of styles. There are not the definitive lines that we have seen in previous years and there are so many “celebrity” combinations of actors/musicians with designers.
I’ll get you some pics to compare with, but in the meantime, remember to focus on what makes you feel your best and look your best.
Just because everyone is wearing a certain style or look doesn’t mean that you do…pick what works for your personality and style.
In fact, start your own trend! Because wearing a ton of black rubber bracelets had to start somewhere, right? Enjoy the beauty bubble!

10 Most Controversial Beauty Products

See which skin care, hair, body and makeup goodies TotalBeauty.com readers can’t see eye-to-eye on

Normally, readers generally agree if a product is good or bad and why. But sometimes they have extreme opinions on products, or they simply can’t agree if a product is worth buying. Here we share the most hotly debated products on TotalBeauty.com. See products

For me personally, the beauty product not worth purchasing is battery operated, pulsating mascara. There are several different brands out there to buy from $15-$40 and personally, none of them are worth it to me.
