What: the first vibrating power mascara from Lancome
The promise: lashes look extraordinary extended, separated and multiplied
Availability: November 2008, limited one day launch on July 31st
Price: $34

Power mascara? Vibrating wand? As someone who poked her eyes one too many times with regular mascaras, I should be running away from this one. I don’t even wear mascara everyday, but curiosity got the best of me and I decided to check it out.

The ‘power’ part was exactly as I imagined. You can hear the motor buzzed as it moves the wand, up to 7000 micro oscillation per minute. As prospective buyers can’t personally tried it on (for health reason), the make up artists will show you how it looks like on their lashes - one eye with and one without. I wasn’t sold until one Lancome lady took off her mascara and put Oscillation on for me. I could see how her lashes lengthen and curled with several swipes of the wand. That’s exactly what I wanted - the curly long lashes I don’t naturally have.

So I went home with the most expensive mascara I ever buy. I don’t think I’ve ever read instruction that carefully before putting any make up on before. As I pressed the button, the wand moves up and down and I swipe it from root to tip as instructed.

If you’re a perfume maniac, you will love Glow, Living Beauty. The new concept store opened a few months ago houses a wide selections of fragrances as well as a few cosmetic brands such as Shiseido, Guerlain, Makeup Factory etc. When you enter the store, you will see pretty much the same brands you see in other department stores, but walking past the DKNYs, the Armanis and the Escadas, you will see a little corner that I would call paradise.

Pertengahan tahun ini rasanya seperti menjadi moment dimana para designer lokal unjuk gigi. Jum’at malam, 2 Agustus 2008, Arantxa Adi atau yang lebih dikenal dengan nama panggilan “Acong” menyelenggarakan fashion show dengan tema “Contrast” di ballroom Hotel Mulia Senayan.

Show yang baru dimulai pada pukul 9.30 malam ini menampilkan karya-karya Acong baik dalam ranah women’s wear maupun men’s wear. Koleksi women’s wear tetap mendominasi show kali ini mengingat Acong hanya menyajikan sedikit koleksi men’s wear yang—jujur—tidak cukup meninggalkan kesan bagi penikmat fashion mengingat garis rancangnya tidak terlalu kuat dan memiliki statement. Beralih ke koleksi women’s wear, Acong lebih banyak menyajikan gaun-gaun pesta yang terkesan glamor dengan sentuhan payet yang minimalis pada beberapa koleksinya. Infusi Yunani juga begitu terasa pada beberapa gaunnya yang mengingatkan kita pada romansa Aphrodite. Acong jarang sekali bermain dengan motif ataupun corak di dalam koleksinya kali ini, justru lebih banyak bermain origami sederhana pada beberapa karyanya.

In an attempt to shed the baby weight (and after getting annoyed by the many slimming pill offers I received when I went to ITC), I desperately picked up a copy of SHAPE magazine on the way to the parking lot. And look what I found, a review about FD that makes me forget about the ‘encouraging’ “Ibu mau tau cara ampuh untuk membakar lemaknya nggak?“..”Boleh coba obat kurusnya bu?” comments from the salesmen and saleswomen.. ..so thanks to SHAPE that has made my day! We, at Fashionese Daily really appreciate the love..=)
