Revision Skincare, in existence for over 15 years is a line that is commands respect. Known in the med-spa, physician and high end, advanced skin care circuit, I was thrilled when I heard about a new three-in-one powerhouse product. Bad-ass sunscreen, moisturizer and subtle tint all in one. Music to my ears. Less is more.

And it delivers. Light, very matte ( I prefer a dewey look and I ordered my non-matte version today ) and somehow, just blends into skin perfectly. Magic. I am impressed and thrilled that I have my summer base. YAY!

Most winning drugstore find of the week. IRENE GARI Cover Your Gray Touch Up Stick.

My low find of the week!

I have a persistent gray hair situation. It grows like weeds. I have to stay away from color for another week as my hair was BURNED in a tragic Brazilian Blowout gone wild scenario two weeks ago.

What to do, what to do?

While at CVS picking up the usual, ya know, diapers, clorox and graham crackers, I notices something in the hair dye dept. – this long thin box of a containing a wand and the words COVER YOUR GRAY. It looked so tacky and horrible but I remembered one colorist once saying to me – just paint it in if you are desperate. So, for $3.99, I figured WTF.

It's brilliant. Totally effen amazing. Not tacky at all. A gorgeous brown, goes on like mascara and it sounds horrible but it's not and it WORKS!! Honestly – it's brill. I must stock up. Got it at CVS on West 3rd/Fairfax.

The box looks a little diff than this.

Juliet Has a Gun – A new perfume from Romano Ricci

June 2, 2011

Juliette Has a Gun Parfums takes a modern twist on the world of fragrance. The line is created and designed by Romano Ricci, great grandson of world-renowned haute couture designer, and grandson of a perfumer.

Launched in 2006, Ricci's philosophy approaches perfumery as an inspired art, drawing inspiration from the popular Shakespearian heroine, Juliette. Juliette goes wild as she is transposed into the 21st Century, armed…with a gun (the gun being a metaphor for the perfume). Juliette intrigues the world with her captivating and seductive scents – symbolizing the liberation of women from men and sometimes with a taste of revenge.

This romantic collection includes five original scents, and a purse fragrance in the shape of a bullet; with more weapons of mass seduction to come.

Juliet Has a Gun Parfums is available at www.juliettehasagun.com and Henri Bendel stores
