M.I.S.S. NYFW: Boots Protect & Perfect Skincare Line

Tuesday, September 16th, 2008

Boots, a popular health and beauty company based in the United Kingdom, has come stateside to gain the cult status that is has in Britain. The last time I went to London I had several friends ask me to bring back Boots products, so I was happy to learn that now ladies on this side of the pond can get these great products. As one of the sponsors of NYFW, Boots had a booth at the tents where it showcased and highlighted products from it’s Protect & Perfect skincare line.

One of the things that makes Boots products great is that they are not tested on animals. Instead, all of the products are tested by the end users: 4000 women test the products to ensure quality and credibility. The products are hypo-allergenic and contain ingredients that protect your skin from damaging free radicals like the sun and pollution. The Protect & Perfect skincare also

[c]ontains lipo-peptides and white lupin extract to strengthen and protect the collagen and elastin content for firmer smoother skin[, while] Pro-retinol Vitamin A [h]elps normalise the skin’s surface by promoting cell turnover and encouraging the formation of newer cells for a smoother, more youthful appearance. . . . This innovative formula works to reduce the appearance of pores, fine lines and wrinkles, while promoting elasticity and firmness.

One year ago, a beauty survey was conducted in Britain to determine the credibility of “age defying” treatments. Boots came out in the lead and was the only formula proven to improve the signs of aging in as little at 4 weeks. Soon after the Protect & Perfect creams were sold out all over the U.K. I was lucky enough to get my own jars of the Protect & Perfect day and night creams. I’ll let you know how my skin looks in 4 weeks. In the mean time, if you want to try out for yourself you can find Boots at your local Target or online at Target.com.

Target Bullseye Bodega - Two Days Left!

Sunday, September 14th, 2008


A few days ago we gave you a sneak peak of the Target Bullseye Bodega and we had a chance to take a look inside and take some pictures for you to check out in case you couldn’t make it. I stopped by the 57th & 6th Avenue location in midtown and the store was full of shoppers with steady traffic streaming in and out. The store supervisor noted that when they opened at 10 am on Friday, there were over 60 people in line. The other 3 locations in Soho, Union Square and East Village also reported a great turnout.

The Bullseye Bodega’s are stocked with the best of Target’s collaborative designer products for home, beauty, fashion and accessories. Some of the collections are available at the Bullseye Bodega stores before they hit Target shops nationwide including Sigerson Morrison shoes, Go International by Jonathan Saunders and handbags by Anya Hindmarch. If you haven’t stopped by the Target Bullseye Bodega you definitely should check it out. It’s great visually, you can get some great products before the masses and the tote bags you get with purchase are adorable AND reusable!  For more information, locations and operating hours click here.

The Man With A Plan

Johnathan Saunders is on fire.

Not only has he moved his show from London to New York, but he has also inked a deal with Gola for a line of shoes - and now comes word that he will be partnering up with Target for a limited edition collection for Target’s GO International.

Sources tell WWD that the young Scotsmen is in talks with the mass retailer for a capsule collection that will probably follow the highly-anticipated Jovovich-Hawk line.

We really hope this rumor is true. If not, the very busy designer’s Topshop collection hits stores later this month. It will feature “jersey dresses printed with bold, primary color shapes.�

Wow, those would look great with our Gryson for Target distressed leather bags. Yes, we totally have our fingers crossed for this one!

Soap & Glory For Target

Soap&Glory has created alot of buzz amongst some of the most popular beauty blogs lately. For example, the editors at Girlawhirl.com have said:

Ever since [girlawhirl] tried Marcia Kilgore’s latest creation, Soap & Glory Cosmetics when they were introduced in England last summer, she’s been dying to have the fun, hard-working and well-priced bath, body and beauty items available to her here, instead of carrying back multiples or asking London Super Pals to bring them for her when they visit her in the states…�

Basically, you know how you stock up on wet n wild lip chaps and maybelline mascaras even though you have your unused fifty dollar lipsticks just collecting dust in your makeup bag? Well, this company agrees that some of the best beauty products are the least expensive and have decided to stay with a more affordable price point without sacrificing quality. Cool, huh? If you’re interested, Soap&Glory products will be hitting Target shelves anyday now!

The long anticipated Alice Temperley for Target collection is now available at Target.com! I’ve received several emails days before the official launch (September 16th) telling me it has dropped at certain stores but I never had a chance to make it down. Luckily most of the stuff I wanted was online, I honestly never have any luck in shopping for GO Designers at my local Target! Target.com offers free shipping for the purchase of $50+ so I rather avoid the long lines and disappointment at stores haha, for Target purchases I’m more of an online shopper.
