Men’s Grooming Tips – Back to the future: hair pomade

June 11th // 1 Comment

Star Trek, William Shatner and Chris Pine[Image via LikeAWhiper]

We’re not sure which Captain Kirk we like better – William Shatner or Chris Pine – but we know who has slightly tougher hair. In Pine’s universe, there’s pomade. Poor Shatner had to make do with hair spray. (AND they made him wear mustard, a shade that’s hard to pull off no matter how good-looking you are, or which orbit you inhabit.) Anyway, we love the Aveda Light Elements Defining Whip: Rub a dab between your palms and rake your fingers through your hair. The result: rumpled and bed-heady, at warp speed.

Trends and News – Shipley and Halmos for Uniqlo

June 10th // Comment Here

Shipley and Halmos is one of my favorite up-and-coming labels. The collection features an impressive lineup of well-tailored pieces with a subtle edge. And the design duo of Jeff Shipley and Sam Halmos apply that same philosophy to their recently released capsule line for Uniqlo. You’ll have a tough time picking between the playful jumpers, the silk blouses, and the super-sexy draped dresses. I certainly couldn’t decide!

    Women’s Beauty Tips – Sexy, eco-fragrances you’ll love

    June 6th // 1 Comment

    They’ve long been known for turning out the most gorgeously scented, eco-friendly candles, soaps and drawer liners, so it’s no surprise that the Soap and Paper Factory’s recently launched Solid Perfumes feel similarly decadent. A mix of pure jojoba, beeswax and fragrance, the fragrances are especially brilliant for chemically-sensitive types: The good-for-you formulas contain no alcohol, phthalates, parabens or petrochemicals. I especially love the Jasmine , Rosewood and Orange Blossom scents – they’re nicely subtle, summer-perfect and only $18 each.
