How to look like a Bond girl
Sunday, November 4, 2012
From the moment Ursula Andress emerged from the ocean in 1962's Dr. No, we’ve admired and envied the Bond girls – each one as charismatic and startling as the last. And though the actresses may have changed over five decades, the Bond girl beauty formula remains the same: flawless skin, a perfect pout, glossy locks and seductive eyes. So, to mark the film franchise’s 50th anniversary, here is a guide to achieving classic Bond girl glamour in just a few easy steps.
No Bond girl worth her salt would be caught with less than flawless skin that’s the perfect accessory for lighting up the screen… sometimes literally! Shirley Eaton, who played Jill Masterson in 1964's Goldfinger
, is one of the most iconic Bond girls despite having a screen presence of hardly five minutes – mainly thanks to the gold paint that dresses her skin in the powerful death scene. While head-to-toe gold may not be an achievable look, why not take a cue and use an illuminating formula like Oskia’s Get Up & Glow or Jemma Kidd’s Make Up Dewy Glow All Over Radiance Creme for instantly radiant skin?
The ideal Bond girl’s eye makeup looks natural yet sophisticated. And the best way to achieve that is by using a lengthening mascara like Benefit’s They’re Real! or L’Oreal’s Waterproof Lash Out Extra Extending Mascara. As for the eyeshadow, most Bond girls are particularly partial to a lightly smoky eye, so get hold of the MAC Carine Roitfeld Jungle Camouflage Full Face Kith! And remember that the ideal 007 girl’s eyebrows must be perfectly defined, so keep the Make Up Forever Brow Seal close at hand!
One of the key qualities any Bond girl needs is a killer pout, with red lips being favoured by Sophie Marceau (Elektra King), Eva Green (Vesper Lynd) and Talisa Soto (Lupe Lamora) and many others. Check out this post to on how to get the ultimate red lip!
An immaculate manicure wouldn’t hurt when pressing the emergency button on James Bond and OPI has the perfect solution right in time for the film franchise’s 50th anniversary. Named after the hottest James Bond films, the limited edition OPI Skyfall Collection has 12 awesome shades to play with. Severine (Marlohe) wears the aptly named Skyfall shade on long, almond-shaped nails throughout the latest Bond flick… and look out for the shot that shows the underneath of her nails painted with Goldeneye. For a split second it looks like a gold finger!
Of course, all Bond girls show off their deliriously hot bods in sexy bikinis and a shimmery golden tan. James Harknett from Sienna X tanned the Skyfall
cast and gave the down-low on getting the look: first, you need to exfoliate with a body scrub to remove any traces of dead skin. Once you’ve applied your self-tanner, top off with Sienna X Radiance Body Balm to highlight your best assets with a luminous shine.
When it comes to hair, Bond girls can be blonde (Britt Ekland), brunette (Olga Kurylenko) or redheads (Gemma Arterton) but in terms of length the pixie cut seen on Halle Berry is more of a rarity, with voluminous tumbling tresses tending to be the norm. And the secret to achieving this look is to go easy on the hairspray. You want touchable, free-flowing hair that’s begging for Mr. Bond to spontaneously grab and mess up. After you’ve styled your hair, gently work in the John Frieda Frizz Ease Secret Agent Flawless Finishing Crème with your fingers for a sleek, shiny finish.

Never get cramps again!
If there is one thing that unites women across the world, it’s the sheer agony of period cramps! Fortunately, nature has put forth a bevy of cures that soothe the agony and women everywhere turn to these potent pain-busting potions when even the prescription-strength tablets fail to work. And they are always willing to share their communal knowledge as I have found out on my wanderings through the globe. Here are the top 5 tried, tested and timeless teas and tisanes that are a part of indigenous knowledge from times immemorial.Pour a cup of boiling water over one tablespoon of freshly grated ginger. Allow the ginger to steep for at least 5 minutes, then strain and drink as a tea.
Place one tablespoon of dried oregano in a tea ball or a small square of muslin cloth. Pour a cup of boiling water over the oregano and allow it to steep for 5 minutes. Remove the tea ball and drink the tea while it is hot. Repeat if necessary.Pour a cup of boiling water over one tablespoon of fresh chamomile flowers (or half a tablespoon of dried chamomile) and allow to steep for 5 minutes. Then strain out the flowers, add some honey and lemon (to taste) and drink while hot. Voila!Put 2 teaspoons of powdered ginger, 5 whole cloves and one cup of water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and allow to simmer for 5 minutes. Strain and drink while hot.Place a quarter cup of white overproof rum (bonus points if you can get your hands on Wray & Nephew’s 151-Proof White Rum) and some ice cubes in a cocktail glass. Add a splash of water and a twist of lemon. Repeat judiciously! This really works… so well, in fact, that it’s my favourite remedy of the lot!

Top anti-aging creams for the under-40s
Last month, I saved up all my pennies (and dollars and Euros and every other kind of currency I could get my hand on!) to buy that Holy Grail of anti-aging moisturisers: the Crème de La Mer. So, imagine the horror when my face exploded in a splatter of ugly and painful zits within a week of applying this wonder cream to my skin. This was not the La Mer promise. Had the cream successfully managed to dupe millions of women across the globe only to have it’s true colours revealed on my face?
No! The La Mer promise was well and alive – for the right women in the right age group, explained one dermatologist after another. The problem was actually with me. Lured by the seductive sound of super-smooth skin that looked 10 years younger, I had ignored one key element: my actual age. Which, it so happens, has everything
to do with how well an anti-aging product will work.
In our 20s and 30s, explained the skin doctors, skin is pretty good at taking care of itself as the body is still producing the right amounts of oil, water and collagen. However, in our 40s these natural resources start drying up, leaving skin dehydrated and low on nourishing elements. This is when the thicker emollients and hefty doses of collagen – such as those found in Crème de la Mer – are needed to compensate for the shortfall. And since mature skin’s natural oil and water content has begun to decrease, these creams are absorbed relatively quickly.
On the other hand, when youthful skin gets coated with these same rich emollients, its already well-hydrated pores become clogged. The result? Ugly whiteheads and painful zits. So, in summary, Crème de la Mer and other such potent anti-agers can be great for the 40-and-over set, but for anyone younger, they are usually counter-productive. That’s why, if you are under 40, it’s best to choose lighter hydrators, antioxidants and natural collagen-boosting ingredients that won’t weigh down your face or clog your pores… like these 5 options!
Unlike the original version, which is thick enough to heal cracked heels, the lighter formula of Rosa Arctica Lightweight Creamis unlikely to clog pores, even with the greasiest of complexions. As for the potency, don’t worry… it’s still based on the DNA of the Resurrection flower, which can thrive in arctic weather for over two years. US$60
A lightweight version of the patented Pro-Xylane-Wild Yam-Soy-Sea Algae-Barley cult concoction, this milky lotion delivers all the plumping, firming and skin-clarifying benefits of its heavier counterpart sans the creamy consistency. US$160
The Oil Absorbing Lotion is a lightweight, oil-free version of Crème de la Mer that contains the legendary Miracle Broth of the original but combines it with smart algae to help control excess oil. US$230
This Vitamin C Serum contains 7.5% Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) to reduce discolouration and brighten skin. It also contains Hyaluronic Acid to retain skin’s natural moisture and collagen to enhance skin’s firmness and elasticity, making it particularly good for skin that’s suffered extensive sun or smoke damage. US$45
Its supercharged blend of antioxidants, anti-inflammatories and a mild retinol base makes the Glow Ruby Crystal Retinol Hydracremegood for everyone, but great for people under 40,” says dermatologist Fredric Brandt, M.D. US$65

The no-shampoo shampoo
Last minute dinner plans and hair that looks like crows could be breeding inside its murky depths? This happens to me at least once a month and since I hate dry shampoo (how does one ever get the gritty, dandruff-like stuff out of the strands?) it’s revival time for grandmom’s 5-minute hair-pick-me-up. And it’s simple…

Take a sturdy hairbrush and force the bristles through an old stocking or panty hose. Brush your hair normally and watch all the icky stuff transfer from your scalp and strands on the fabric. When the cloth becomes dirty, remove it and replace with another piece and continue till hair is presentable. This is a true life saver!
MAC makes Halloween super-simple!
So, now that you have stocked up on the Halloween beauty goodies, it’s time to figure out some makeup looks for full-on dramatic effect. And MAC is here to help with four looks that evoke some very of-the-moment characters. Terrific last minute inspiration, complete with face charts and product recommendations!With the newly released Marilyn Monroe collection, it’s no surprise that the beauty brand has created a Halloween makeup look based on the cinematic icon, complete with smokey cat eyes, sculpted cheekbones and red lips.
And, of course, what would this year’s Halloween be without Catwoman as played by Anne Hathaway in The Dark Knight Rises? Winged eyes and bold red lips courtesy of Ruby Woo… that’s all it takes to channel one of the biggest movie moments of the year.The 1920s are one of the biggest trends for Autumn-Winter 2012, so be the most fashionable party-goer by channelling The Great Gatsby’s Daisy Buchanan with thin eyebrows, dark lips and dressed-up eyes.
If you are not over The Hunger Games yet (I am!), get into the Capitol spirit with Effie Trinket’s pink eyeshadow, purple lashes and lilac lips.Which of these looks would you like to channel? I am personally leaning towards Daisy Buchanan… there is something about the ’20s that’s completely irresistible, isn’t it?
