I love looking through ads in fashion magazines. That is probably my favourite thing to do when it comes to magazines to tell the truth. I was actually surprised that I am not the only one according to your reaction on Twitter.

So I thought I’d show the latest makeup ads that I really loved.

The first one is the promo photo with Scarlett Johansson for the new Dolce & Gabbana mascara which is called Secret Eyes.

Her makeup is so classy and elegant and the outfit is very Dolce & Gabbana, love it.  And I just like everything about this photo in general.

This mascara will be out in September and will be available in black and brown. It should be  a lengthening one.

I am sorry for the lines, I had to scan this photo from the magazine.

The other one is this one with

I love haute couture for the beautiful makeup looks. It’s is always such an inspiration, I can look at the makeup for hours, honestly.

There is nothing quite like makeup at Dior Haute Couture. I am always very excited to see the new looks from this show.

These two are my absolute  favourites, so amazing.

It looks like dark navy blue will be a big trend this Fall. I actually like it as I love navy blue on myself ( I have brown eyes) and it looks great on a lot of people if you use the right shade.

I have to  say that I really love this new Blue Tie Dior Makeup collection for Fall 2011.

The star products of the collection are definitely the two gorgeous palettes  with four eye shadows and one lip gloss in a chic metallic compact.

I really like this new Dior’s  Lady Dior  Palette which is inspired by the famous Lady Dior bag.  Not only it is inspired by the bag itself but also by the history behind it. As you may know, one of the reasons why this bag became famous was  because of the Lady Diana, who got her bag from Mrs Chirac  in 1995.

You can get yours from 15th July exclusively at Selfrigdes for £61.50. This is a limited edition.

I don’t really do nude lips, there are several nude lipsticks that I like but I rarely use them. My everyday lips would be baby pink or clear glosses or the new glossy lipsticks. I also love light coral and peaches and bright matte lips but light pinks/clear glosses would be my choice for an everyday look.

There are so many that I love but I have decided to choose only eight. I love high end glosses for my personal use but I understand that not everyone can afford it so I’ve chosen three much cheaper lip products that I love, too.

Since these are my favourite products I have already written about all of them so I will just include the links to my reviews.

My favourite gloss of all times would have to be Chanel Mica glossimer which you can probably tell by how well used it is, my second favourite is KissKiss Crystal Pearl by Guerlain.

My most favourite affordable lip gloss is Demure by Rimmel which is discontinued but I have backups.
