Weekend Roundup - May 1

What a great week in beauty blogging land! If you tuned out, you missed some fabulous features on makeup, skin care, and hair styling. Here are a few must-reads to tempt you this weekend.

Gaia got brave at The Non-Blonde and and showed us close-ups of her eyelashes with two Chanel mascaras: Inimitable in Noir Obscur and Exceptionnel de Chanel in #10 Noir. Head over to see the comparison. While you're there, check out Gracie wearing Youngblood Crushed Mineral Blush.

Kari at Fabulous Over Forty tried out Clarisonic's new Opal Sonic Infusion System, with anti-aging sea serum for the eye area. It's the latest addition to the much-loved Clarisonic family. You will covet the Opal after you read her post!

Anne at BeautyXposé and I had our makeup perfected last weekend by Renato Almeida, National Makeup Artist for Shiseido. Renato used the fabulous new colors from Shiseido's Spring 2010 Collection. You have to see the eye shadow that we both loved - and the results!

Kelly told us what she would buy for Anne's mother, Connie, with a $100 gift card from Sephora. See what made the shopping cart for Connie's summer at Gouldylox Reviews!

Debbi at DivaDebbi spent at third of her youth doing what we all did: trying to get bronze. Now she has found Rephase D-White from an Italian anti-aging line to help undo the damage. She is thrilled with the results!

Cindy made some awesome product discoveries this month - from blush to hair to books. See what she's loving at Prime Beauty.

The swatching queen, KarlaSugar, got her hands on the new Tom Ford Lipsticks! Bet you'll pick out at least one of these beauties at The Next Best Thing to Going Shopping Yourself.

Last week, I fell in love with Shu Uemura Art of Hair Ample Angora Volumizing Light Foam. Today, my hair stylist was equally impressed. You can read about its wonders here at Best Things in Beauty.

Have a beauty-full weekend!
