HOW TO: LEAVE LIQUIDS BEHIND
Being a bathing beauty isn’t easy for a girl on the go. The solution for most is tiny travel-size bottles or tubes of our favourite body washes and lotions. But that doesn’t leave our change of clothes for après workout safe from spills and with revisions in airport security happening almost monthly, you’re still going to have to check it or part with it. To avoid having a bottle of shampoo explode in your gym bag or scrambling to fit a tub of exfoliator into your checked baggage at the airport, FrontRow suggests some of these liquid-less essentials.

INDIGO GIRLS
We already know blue is a big colour for 2010, but seeing the indigo eyes on the Fall 2010 runways of Derek Lam, Diane von Furstenberg and Jason Wu inspired me to try the trend in real life. Not wanting to sport an 80s type blue shadow, I looked to Canadian cosmetics brand Vasanti and their spring Hamptons Eye Colour palette. The palette has a denim hued blue with a touch of sparkle. The shade brought out the green in my eyes, and made a smokey impression all night long. A beauty editor friend of mine even made some lovely compliments on my new favourite shade.

FOREVER YOUNG
With the majority of anti-aging products aimed at women closer to their 40s, it leaves girls in their 20s and 30s often waiting until the damage is done before they can tackle the signs of aging. We couldn’t have been more excited when Orlane’s Anagenèse 25+ line came across our desk–have we found the fountain of youth?
The Aganenèse 25+ line is aimed at 25 to 35 year olds who want to combat invisible aging that begins in our mid-20s, as well as prevent those fine lines from eventually appearing.

LONDON FASHION WEEK PARTY BUZZ
Despite a somewhat somber start to London Fashion Week, with the shows always come the parties. The week’s after-hours festivities kicked off with Naomi Campbell’s second fundraiser of fashion month, a party that attracted London’s fashion glitterati including Kate Moss, Sir Philip Green and muse to the late Lee McQueen, Annabelle Nelson. The celebrities continued to celebrate fashion throughout the week at the Mulberry Party in The Orangery at Kensington Palace, where editors and tastemakers danced the night away with Alexa Chung, Amber Le Bon, and Olivia Palermo – all of whom were noticeably absent from the next morning’s 9am show.

LONDON FASHION WEEK: FALL 2010 HIGHLIGHTS
If there’s one thing London Fashion Week is known for, it’s talent, energy, and unambiguous trendspotting. This season was no different and the rainy city showed that it still has a few surprises up its sleeve. The biggest buzz went to the relatively unknown 37-year-old Turkish designer Hakaan. The new master of chic body-con, Hakaan drew Paris Vogue editor-in-chief Carine Roitfeld and Kate Moss to his front row; a move that shocked and surprised attendees on the very first day. Another fan-favorite show was Canadian-born designer Erdem Moralioglu, who presented a collection of attention-grabbing dresses and separates in warm autumnal colours and prints. It is no surprise though that the biggest and most exciting show of the week was Burberry. The large scale, A-list filled show was extremely notable because, really, nothing could be better for fall than shearling jackets, aviator overcoats, and chic winter boots.

DISCREET AND CHIC
There’s always been something elegant about carrying a compact. What’s not so glam is skin drying out or looking chalky after a touch-up. The Vitalumière Èclat compact by Chanel is the ultimate compact for discreetly applying foundation, while wanting to look flawless on-the-go.
