<p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">More than any other beauty product, I love mascara. I’m not the biggest fan of wearing falsies, but that’s definitely the look I go for—my lashes just can’t be long/full enough! I have a handful of faithful favorites, but I’m always on the lookout for something new and different to try out. This Givenchy mascara is just that—it has a unique ball-shaped brush that allows for the most precise application.</p>
<p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle"><span><span>2.<span> </span></span></span><strong><a href="http://www.michaelkors.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml;jsessionid=WRBWERLAGPUTACQAAJYHN0A?itemId=prod5290002&amp;parentId=cat7902&amp;masterId=cat152&amp;cmCat=cat000000cat101cat152cat7902&amp;index=2&amp;tid=P9" target="_blank">Michael Kors Bermuda Moisturizing Body Lotion</a></strong>, $28</p>
<p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">I dream of jetting off to Bermuda for a luxurious and exotic getaway, but that trip is currently firmly rooted in my fantasy world. Lucky for me, I can get a little feel of the island life with Michael Kors’ new destination fragrance—Bermuda is captured with a blend of hibiscus, passion flower, and cedar wood. I’m coveting this enticing scent in its body lotion form so that I can smell great while helping my skin feel great, too.</p>
<p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle"><span><span>3.<span> </span></span></span><strong><a href="http://sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P53001&amp;categoryId=C10465" target="_blank">GO SMILE AM &amp; PM Whitening Protection Fluoride Toothpaste</a></strong>, $30<strong></strong></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">It’s one thing to have a set of pearly whites, but I also want mine to be as healthy as possible. This great day-and-night duo can maintain whiteness and keep my smile sparkling, but more importantly, the fluoride in it will prevent decay and strengthen the enamel of my teeth.</p>
<p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle"><span><span>4.<span> </span></span></span><strong><a href="http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/urban/catalog/productdetail.jsp?itemdescription=true&amp;itemCount=10&amp;startValue=1&amp;selectedProductColor=&amp;sortby=&amp;id=14071617&amp;parentid=W_ACC_COSEMETICS&amp;sortProperties=+subCategoryPosition,&amp;navCount=3&amp;navAction=jump&amp;color=&amp;pushId=W_ACC_COSEMETICS&amp;popId=WOMENS_ACCESSORIES&amp;prepushId=" target="_blank">Cupcake Lip Balm 4 Pack</a></strong>, $10</p>
<p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">These lip balms from Urban Outfitters come in precious mini-cupcake containers and are so adorable, I’ll feel like I’m indulging my sweet tooth—but without any guilt! They come in four delicious flavors: raspberry cream tart, cream tart, chocolate cream puff, and strawberry cream tart. Dessert, anyone?</p>
<p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle"><span><span>5.<span> </span></span></span><strong><a href="http://uma.chanel.com/-makeup-nails-nail-colour-le-vernis-nail-colour-/product/MANPR010" target="_blank">Chanel Le Vernis Nail Colour in Gondola</a></strong>, $23<strong></strong></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">Nail polish is a beauty product that even the most color-shy person can have fun experimenting with. I personally embrace colors with reckless abandon, but while I’d probably never try out mint green lipstick, I <em>am</em> currently on the hunt for some nail color in that shade. So it makes sense that I’m lusting after Chanel’s latest polish additions, and in particular for the beautiful, rich plum-wine color, Gondola.</p>
<p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle"><span><span>6.<span> </span></span></span><strong><a href="http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/catalog/productdetail.jsp?id=943422&amp;parentid=ACCESSORIES-HAIR&amp;pushId=ACCESSORIES-HAIR&amp;popId=JEWELRYACCESSORIES&amp;sortProperties=&amp;navCount=15&amp;navAction=top&amp;fromCategoryPage=true&amp;selectedProductSize=&amp;selectedProductSize1=&amp;color=046&amp;colorName=TURQUOISE&amp;isSubcategory=true" target="_blank">Serpentine Shimmer Headband</a></strong>, $32</p>
<p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">I don’t often do much to my hair, but that doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate a good hair accessory when I see it! This beautiful headband is composed of sparkling gold beads and peach-colored glass ovals, and I think it’s almost reminiscent of a delicate tiara of the fairy princess variety. It’d be the perfect finishing touch for practically any outfit for those days when I feeling more regal than usual.</p>

<p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle">This gorgeous purse is perfectly summery and a beautifully eye-catching shade of yellow—which is already enough to make me want it. Add on that it’s made of a high quality silk satin from Europe, and that it has a magnetic flap, a pretty bouquet of flowers, and pockets inside… I’m sold!</p>
<p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle"><span><span>8.<span> </span></span></span><strong><a href="http://www.brownsfashion.com/product/97028.htm" target="_blank">Stella McCartney Frill Bikini</a></strong>, approximately $230<strong></strong></p>
<p class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast">The nautical trend is one of my absolute favorites—it’s easy and classic, and the colors are always great. Stella McCartney seems to love the trend just as much, and one of my favorite nautical items from her designs in this adorable sailboat and seagull print swimsuit. The cut is unique, and the frills add the perfect girly touch!</p>

One solution is to stop administering our normal hair routines, but we all know that isn’t going to happen. We could also get the damaged parts cut, but we really don’t want to lose any precious length.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There are also plenty of products now that help you treat damaged hair, but here’s a solution that won’t cost you much <em>and</em> will be more than easy to fit into your daily routine: swap out your old brush for a <a href="http://tinker.com/event/TweetsOnBeauty/goody" target="_blank">Goody</a> <a href="http://goody.com/Products/Styling%20Tools/Brushes/Paddle/Paddle.aspx" target="_blank">Styling Therapy add + shine Jojoba Oil Infused Brush</a>. It comes in three styles—Styler, Cushion, and our favorite, Paddle—and is designed to heal dry and damaged hair.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">How so? The jojoba oil lends shine, reduces split ends, and conditions your hair with a moisturizer similar to the natural oils produced in the scalp.<span> </span>The bristles are soft and pliable, so you won’t be pulling your hair out (in either sense!) anymore. <a href="http://tinker.com/event/samirarora/scarlett_johansson_celebrity" target="_blank">Scarlett Johansson</a> is a fan of the brush, and with all its benefits, we can definitely see why!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left">Goody add + shine Jojoba Oil Infused Brushes are $11.99 each, and you can visit <a href="http://goody.com/Where_To_Buy/addshine_paddle.aspx" target="_blank">Goody.com</a> for a list of retailers.</p>

<p style="text-align: left">London is chock full of beauty rebels—at any given moment you&#8217;ll see shaved scalps paired with long curls, two-toned mohawks, bull-style nose rings&#8230; wearing this inky gel eyeliner, I&#8217;ll fit right in. Nothing says I&#8217;m a bad girl like thick wing-tipped eyeliner, à la <strong>Amy Winehouse</strong>.</p>
<p style="text-align: left"><a href="http://www.theoutnet.com/product/32063" target="_blank"><strong>Alberta Ferretti Mythology Chiffon Dress</strong></a>, $1273</p>
<p style="text-align: left">Being the party girl that I am, I&#8217;ll probably end up hanging out at Movida, London&#8217;s most exclusive nightclub. This flouncy Grecian-inspired mini-dress embodies the exact look I&#8217;m going for: easy, breezy, beautiful, &#8216;Incredibly Chic&#8217; girl.</p>
<p style="text-align: left"><a href="http://www.adamobydell.com/" target="_blank"><strong>Dell Adamo Laptop</strong></a>, Starting at $1999, order now at <a href="http://www.adamobydell.com/">AdamoByDell.com</a></p>
<p style="text-align: left">As a writer, my eyes are always peeled. I&#8217;m constantly on the lookout for the next story to break, or a celebrity spotting to tweet. Lugging a regular laptop around gets tiring, and writing on my iPhone isn&#8217;t conducive for my (already poor) eyesight. This time around I&#8217;ll be traveling <em>and</em> typing in style with the super sleek Adamo—better known as the world&#8217;s thinnest laptop. Dell&#8217;s newest offering weighs just 4 pounds, and runs at lighting speed, thanks to its Intel Core 2 Duo Processor.</p>
<p style="text-align: left"><a href="http://www.moroccanoil.com/en/our-products.html" target="_blank"><strong>Moroccanoil Intense Curl Cream</strong></a>, $30, available in salons only—see salon locator <a href="http://www.moroccanoil.com/en/component/locator/?view=choice" target="_blank">here</a></p>
<p style="text-align: left">I&#8217;ve fallen off of the straight hair wagon—it was a <em>way</em> too much maintenance for me. Plus, I&#8217;m a curly girl at heart; I&#8217;m all about brilliant bounce and boing! Infused with Moroccan Argan-oil, this non-greasy cream is nourishing, moisturizing, and softening. Palming it through my lazy ringlets transforms them into silky spirals, just like I like them.</p>
<p style="text-align: left"><a href="http://www.aerosoles.com/product1.asp?P=RATATOUILLE" target="_blank"><strong>Aerosoles Ratatouille Sandal</strong></a>, $50</p>
<p style="text-align: left">When overseas, nothing is more important to me than comfort. Between working and sightseeing, I&#8217;ll be on my feet for roughly 16-hours straight. This cute snakeskin sandal is stylish enough to wear out to dinner, but comfortable enough to walk from Wimbledon to Big Ben in.</p>
<p style="text-align: left"><a href="http://www.bagborroworsteal.com/handbags/chanel-quilted-flap-handbag/14387/1/972002" target="_blank"><strong>Chanel Quilted Flap Bag</strong></a>, $100 per week, $295 per month at <a href="http://www.bagborroworsteal.com/ui/welcome" target="_blank">Avelle.com</a></p>
<p style="text-align: left">When it comes to purses, it doesn&#8217;t get any more timeless and classic than this statement showpiece. Carry it to the office, to the pub, to the club—you&#8217;ll <em>never</em> have to switch bags. Plus, this steely gray is such a versatile color; it truly goes with everything. And why buy when you can borrow? Avelle (née Bag, Borrow, or Steal), makes it possible for you too to have a Chanel on your doorstep in less than 24-hours flat—at a price you can actually afford.</p>
<p style="text-align: left"><a href="http://us.lizearle.com/products_details.php?range=43&amp;groupid=4&amp;mnuid=1" target="_blank"><strong>Liz Earle Instant Boost Skin Tonic Spritzer</strong></a>, $8.50 and <a href="http://www.korresusa.com/product/5005/lip-butter" target="_blank"><strong>Korres Lip Butter</strong></a>, $9</p>
<p style="text-align: left">I fly across the pond quite often, and every time I land in Londontown, my skin always feels unbelievably parched. Cabin air is<em> ridiculously</em> dry, so this time I&#8217;ll be prepared. Every couple of hours I&#8217;ll mist my face and neck with Liz Earle&#8217;s revitalizing rose and aloe vera spray, and I&#8217;ll dab on the wild rose Korres lip balm. I&#8217;m hoping to deplane looking just as gorgeous as I did when I boarded.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Traditionally, we girls have spent a lot of time, effort, and <a href="http://tinker.com/event/kkancler/money_topic" target="_blank">money</a> for nice, shiny nails—think weekly <a href="http://tinker.com/event/TweetsOnBeauty/manicure" target="_blank">manicures</a>, base coats, extra-glossy polish, top coats—the works. But right now, there’s an alternative that’s shining in the spotlight (so to speak). Matte <a href="http://tinker.com/event/TweetsOnBeauty/nail_polish" target="_blank">nail polish</a> is a quickly growing trend right now, and although we’re not sure we can give up our love for shine, we think it may be one of those things you just have to get used to. And matte polish definitely isn’t dull—it’s just more about subtle luster than in-your-face light reflection. If you’re into the idea, we suggest trying these:</p>
