Everyone from Isaac Mizrahi to Serena Williams, Rachel Zoe to Rami Kashou hooked up with one of these networks, bringing their delectable goodies to the masses. One of the most exciting collaborations was between Molly Sims and HSN - Grayce by Molly Sims proved to be a totally stellar art deco-inspired jewelry collection. Click through to learn more.

Iman Is Messing With My Mind On HSN

Visual Vamp — Mon, 19 May 2008 09:29:12 -0700

I finally got my big ass out in the yard and tried to weed whack. I was going good for about 15 minutes, when the thing started smoking and throwing off sparks (it's the kind you plug in), and stinking like a poor burning thing. The hubs came out and pronounced it DOA. It's a piece of crap, but I don't think it helped that he left it out in the rain the other day. He poo-pooed my concern, saying the rain would clean it. So there I am like an old peasant woman pulling weeds by hand. And I was trying to rig up a fountain, which failed because the urn I'm trying to use has a hole in it, and stuffing it with a piece of pink foam rubber did not do the trick. So I got squirted and made the pig mess of a mud yard worse. I did a poor white trash thing and laid some pieces of plywood down and set my plastic Adirondack chairs on it, trying to visualize a deck situation. Right now it's hopeless. We have Bed and Tango guests coming Thursday, and I guess I'll just have to let them have the wrong impression of our yard in the hood. Anyhoo, exhausted and prone on the couch, barely able to flip channels, I stall on Home Shopping, and there's Mrs. David Bowie, Iman talking. At least I think she was because you could barely see her lips move, and she never changes her expression. She looks like Maya Rudolph on SNL doing her. Iman was hawking her line of Global something. These big purses were on for about ten minutes, and I swear to God, I started to think about buying one! Well, you get the free make-up too! It's that voice, mesmerizing me into buying this. What do you think, is it ugly or not ugly? Cholo saved me by licking my my face, and bringing me to my senses long enough to change the damn channel. Big Iman purses (you can put your lap top in it) about $140. at HSN HERE Please visit my blog http://visualvamp.blogspot.com

8 Must Have Beauty Gadgets!

D-Lee — Fri, 18 Dec 2009 09:56:21 -0800

If you're like me, you have about a hundred beauty
products and gadgets in your bathroom vanity -
yellow MAC eyeliner anyone?

Thanks to modern technology we can do so many more
beauty procedures at home rather than dolling out
the moola to the dermatologist or the plastic surgeon.

Here are 8 high tech gadgets that can save you time
and money - something we can all use!

OR......... A GREAT GIFT IDEA!!! Hmmmm?

SAFETOX Although Botox seems to be everywhere, it still requires you to make an appointment, go to the doctor, get briefed, do the injection (ouch), and then repeat the process a few months later. It’s too much. Instead, just lock yourself in your bathroom (so you won't scare anyone) and strap this gadget to your head. The Safetox device works on relaxing, as well as stimulating, certain muscles in your face in order to get similar results to the big "B” – minus the needle. safetox.com

LIGHT STIM If you've ever experienced the great results from photo rejuvenation on your face while getting a facial, then you’ll love this. Now you can take that same technology home with you and reduce fine lines with this magic wand. lightstim.com

WELLBOX Getting a little cheese on you're thighs? I've been working out, but I don't think I'll ever be able to fully rid myself of cellulite. However, I do feel like this gadget may help. This is the first at-home lipo-massage treatment kit that claims to help zap away unsightly areas. wellbox.com
l

nono HAIR REMOVAL SYSTEM This device uses what's called Thermicon to help reduce your visits to the waxing room. Pass the cell phone-sized gadget over the preferred spot to get rid of unsightly follicles. sephora.com   HSN.com   my-no-no.com

Dr. KERN HOME SUNLAMP This sunlamp  has the strongest wattage and covers a broad area of your face and neck. But don't forget, tanning = wrinkles.
drkern.com

PERSONAL UV MONITOR This is awesome! Input what type of skin you have and what type of UV protection you have on into this device. When it’s time for you to get out of the sun, it will beep. It’s sun protection in the palm of your hand. shopping.com

ANYTHING CHI Chi is the company that makes the hair styling gizmos that make you think, OMG $300 for a straightener? Yes, their products are that good. They do the curling, fluffing, straightening, and lifting you need at no expense to your hair's health. This new wet to dry flat iron is really FAB!
amazon.com     misikko.com    ebay.com

THIS IS THE BEST! I USE THIS! JONATHAN SHOWER WATER PURIFICATION SYSTEM It’s hard to get up on time every morning, but this pampering device makes the process slightly more enjoyable. This gadget purifies your shower water, meaning no chlorine or heavy metals. You can spend even more time in the pool this summer and still have soft, shiny hair.

EXCLUSIVE: Behind-the-Scenes of Jennifer Lopez’s “My Glow” Campaign

kty — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 11:32:49 -0700

Nope, that’s not one of her own adorable twins, Emme or Max, that Jennifer Lopez is cuddling up to, but for her newest ad campaign, for J.Lo My Glow, the singer clearly has family on her mind - and she’s giving us an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the shoot. In a series of images for the new fragrance (click through below to see more), Jennifer naturally assumes a maternal role in domestic scenes meant to reflect the coziness of the new floral fragrance. “The inspiration for the fragrance My Glow came from where I am right now, a place of happiness and fulfillment at this intimate stage in my life,” she explained in a release. “There is a special glow that women get when they’re pregnant and when they are falling in love with their babies. I wanted My Glow to be for all women to be able to connect with this intimacy and love.” The fragrance will make its debut, exclusively on HSN on October 7th with a specially-priced 1.7 oz. eau de toilette spray, body lotion and shower gel for $49.50. Tell us: Will you try Jennifer’s My Glow?

It Cosmetics--Body and Face

prettyinpink86 — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 18:14:19 -0700

From their website...."My Naughty Mouth" kitMy new beauty obsession!!! It Cosmetics makes makeup for your face AND body. Kits have waterproof bronzers and highlighters, instruction books, brushes, etc. so that you can contour your body to create six pack abs, cleavage, defined legs, pouty lips, etc. It's pretty amazing. I bought the kit called "my naughty mouth" and the one called "my beautiful breasts." The "naughty mouth" kit comes with a palette of all blue-based lipsticks, a blue based lip gloss, and blue-based balm. Apparently blue based lip shades make your teeth look whiter. I had no idea, but now I see a huge difference when I use these as compared to my normal MAC shades. Kit also comes with a 2 sided lip liner. You put the neutral shade under your lip and a white one right above your top lip. It looks like I bleached my teeth and got lip injections.
The breast kit is what I LOVE though. I'm an A-cup, and this makes me appear to be a C!!! It's all just using bronzer and highlighter. Seems like optical illusions through makeup or something?? I'm obsessed because I wear it to the beach and it's waterproof, so I can swim the whole day and I appear to have much larger breasts. I'm excited to try their other products (perhaps I'll give myself a six-pack next? he he!) Anyways, it seems like a pretty innovative brand so I'm anxious to try their stuff and see what else they come out with.
I ordered my two kits from the Home Shopping Network:

Tori Spelling: I'd Love To Be in 90210 Remake

justingirl1989 — Fri, 21 Mar 2008 05:08:17 -0700

Tori Spelling would like to return to her old zip code.

The actress has yet to be contacted by the producers of the Beverly Hills, 90210 remake the CW is developing, but Spelling, who played Donna Martin on the original show for 10 years, is ready to step up if she gets offered a role.

"My dad always wanted to do a new version of 90210, so I'm sure he will be beaming from above!" Spelling, 34, tells PEOPLE, referring to her father, the show's producer Aaron Spelling. "And I'd love to somehow be a part of it. That as well would make my dad proud!"

So what kind of role does she envision for herself?

"Well, I am a mom now, proud to say, but obviously too young to have a teenager, so maybe I could be one of the main character's young step mom," says Spelling, who is expecting her second child. "Playing the funny sex ed teacher at the high school would be funny, too, considering Donna Martin was America's most infamous virgin."

She adds: "The show was a huge part of my life. Ten years! I miss it dearly."

The actress first heard of the remake while doing interviews for her book, sTori Telling.

"I thought ... it's about time," says Spelling, who next appears on television on Friday on HSN with her own jewelry line. "I'm surprised it took this long for them to make a 90210 spin-off."
