Looking for an extra sparkle in your eyes? According to Mami Magazine, “Designer Anthony Mallier from India has created ‘Sparkle’ contact lenses to make your eyes “Sparkle like they’ve never sparkled before.” Imagine having tiny Swarovski crystals beaming out of your eyes? Sounds insane but at the same time hot, the Swarovski crystals surrounds the edges of the lenses to create that “sparkle”.
The ‘Sparkle’ contact lenses are the second place winner in the ‘Crystal Vision’ competition co-organized by designboom and Swarovski. Mallier took the ‘Crystal Vision’ theme literally when he designed the crystal eye ‘bling’. The competition had 4074 entries from 92 countries.
I wonder if these are for sale anywhere, being a color contacts lover I’d def like to own a pair- probably cost an arm and a leg! Hotness! If anyone knows any other details about these, please let me know! Anyone work at Swarovski knows?

Besides all the GO International designer collaborations at Target, the mass retailer also partnered with three premium beauty lines by celebrity makeup artists Napoleon Perdis, Petra Strand and Jemma Kidd to create their first designer makeup collaboration. The collections are a more affordable and slightly different versions of their existing prestige lines. Instead of marking it at discount prices, many of the new products are priced on par with top-of-the-line counterparts sold at Neiman Marcus and similar stores. Testers will be readily available for customers which is great because it’s very important to be able to try the colors and textures on the skin.
“JK Jemma Kidd takes a heavy fashion positioning, where each of the 95 products were inspired by the catwalk (Kidd is a former model). JK includes lip, face, eye and cheek items, as well as makeup tools. Prices start at $14 for I-conic Eye Pencil Liner with a built-in sharpener and go to $36 for a Smoky Eye Palette. The color items, Kidd said, have been designed with strong pigment to produce bold statement colors.”
Pixi by Petra Strand consists of 101 pieces and is a “take on the original’s ‘skin-loving’ positioning, and infuse beneficial ingredients into sheer shades.creates a flawless, photo-perfect finish that leaves women looking like themselves, only better. The collection ranges from $12 to $39.”
NP Set by Napoleon Perdis’ “masstige” collection consists of 85 pieces. The NP Set is more fast-paced and playful than his eponymous line, which is sold at his four concept stores in California and in Sephora. The NP Set products retail for $12 to $30.
The collections are available at Target stores and Target.com now. If anyone tries it let me know how it is! Thanks to readery lucy92 for the tip.

As I mentioned before I think hair is one of the most important accessory you wear everyday, if you have a bad hair day- no matter what you wear you still wouldn’t feel good. So spending extra money for hair products is necessary. My samples of the FHI Heat Professional Brush Series arrived a few weeks back and I’ve just started using the brushes. The new brushes features the Nano-Fuzeion™ technology- the process employs tourmaline, which creates negative ions. “The negative ionization seals the hair cuticle, especially in the presence of heat, locking moisture into the follicle and resulting in strong, supple, glossy hair.”
I personally never really paid much attention to my brushes but after using these new brushes, I’m glad I’ve upgraded. My old brushes does not have a good grip and the bristles get are all bent from the heat and falls off quickly. These new FHI Heat brushes are lightweight and features vents along the core for air pass-through while blow-drying, as well as comfortable, soft-touch handles. I also like that they’re anti-bacterial as I share with the whole family and heat-resistant- they utilize FHI Heat’s thermal plastic bristle. Each brush retails for $19.99, not cheap but with all that technology fused in one- pick one that fits your hair needs the most and you’re good. According to Les Haverty, Artistic Director for the brand, he recommends the Paddle and Round styles for blow-drying, and the Cushion style for finishing.

On Sunday I met up with YM and Mark after lunch to played Wii Fit (I’m still aching) and Mario Kart, my body is still aching- its sooooo fun! Afterward, we met up with Rosena and Sunny at Dave & Buster’s (courtesy of Dave & Buster’s / Mark) for my good friend Helen’s farewell dinner! Helen is off to Asia to get more materials to produce Redpanda Village bags, I’m so excited for her but I’m going to miss her! Come back soon!
After dinner, we decided to watch The Dark Knight. I really wanted to watch it in IMAX but it was still sold out so I finally gave in and watched it! The movie is so amazing, Joker (Heath Ledger) is fantastic- it makes me a bit sad that he is no longer here (RIP) but we’ll never forget! I hardly ever watch movies twice in theaters but this movie I can, looking forward to watching it again in an IMAX theater.
