Music's latest It girl has taken to the scissors and
chopped off her lush black hair. Katy's long and blunt
Louise Brooks style bob looks sleek and much more sophisticated than her typical long waves. Perhaps it's her sudden breakup that preempted the change, or, it could be a desire for a new image in the new year.

Hair extensions can
either be clipped in, bonded, braided, sewn or weaved into your hair. Fake ponytails are typically attached by a giant claw, but falls are solid hair pieces that get attached just under the crown of your head to add length, thickness and volume. Last night at the
Bride Wars premiere in New York, actress Anne Hathaway arrived with a rich brown fall that added a certain 1960's polished mod-style glamour to the red carpet.

I'm not the biggest fan of coloured dry shampoos or even
coloured mascara for that matter, but when it comes to shampoo and conditioner, I've found that choosing a product that has colour enhancing capabilities is quite helpful.
They help keep my freshly dyed hair from fading and looking dull within a few short weeks, and I like how the pigment adds a touch of thickness, moisture and a ton of shine. Lastly, and best of all, because of all of the scale in our water, a colour enhanced shampoo and/or conditioner also helps to counteract brassiness in blondes, red tones in brunettes and rusty effects in redheads.

Earlier this month
Scarlett Johansson decided to darken up her hairdo, and now check out Swedish actress Malin Akerman. This typical funny blonde who's appeared in
Entourage,
The Heartbreak Kid and is most well known for her dastard and non-sisterly behaviour in
27 Dresses debuted a brand-new, bronze-copper hair colour at the Capri Hollywood International Film Festival over the weekend.
I think the shade gives her warm personality even more of an approachable feel and I especially like how she's decided to go for something new when we least expect it.

I've just given out tips to the binman, postman and my trusty Fed Ex delivery team to whom I owe much gratitude to for always delivering my beauty goodies on time. Now it's time to think about the beauty service industry, namely the professionals in my life who I visit regularly for manicures, pedicures, facials, haircuts and massages.
While it's a lot of extra money to spend, it wouldn't seem right to overlook them.

Well well, here's a quickie way to earn some money just before the holiday season.
Feelunique.com, a beauty products website, is offering you the chance to participate in their
pay per wink advertising program — and all you need to do is flirt!
The company logo goes on your eyelid, and by batting your lashes, you can earn 10 pence per eyelid — per wink — up to a total of £100 (that includes both of your eyes).

Last night at the HFPA Salute To Young Hollywood Party in Los Angeles, actress Rumer Willis arrived at Nobu with a slightly more brownish shade of red hair than we've seen in the past few months. It's hard to believe that before September, she was a
dark brunette. This fair-skinned beauty really likes to play with colour; whether it be her hair colour or the tint of her
contacts — now that's what I call daring!

Talk about ewww de eaux!
Marie Claire just reported on the first ever fragrance launch from fast food chain, Burger King. Believe it or not, this whopper of a fragrance mimics the smell of a flame-broiled Whopper!

We all know how important it is to prep your sin before you apply foundation. I always opt for a smooth and creamy base style because the moist and
dewy look makes me feel oily and dirty instead of ethereal and glowing.
Also, I've totally ruled out the matte look because of my rather large pores.

To wrap up this years
best of beauty polls, I wanted to find out your favourite brand of liquid eyeliner. From
Amy Winehouse to
Lauren Conrad,
Kate Moss and Dita Von Teese, everyone has been seen wearing a cat-like winged-liner look. Vote below to let me know your tried and true brand based on consistency, staying power or even the precision of the applicator brush.
