Beauty411 Named Top 50 Beauty Blog by Konector!

Beauty411 was recently named a Top 50 Beauty Blog by Konector, a company that analyzes online influence.  An article in the July 24, 2009 online edition of Women's Wear Daily also discussed the report and the impact of beauty bloggers.

This is amazing news and I'm tremendously honored to be in such great company.  Many of the other blogs/bloggers listed in the Top 50 Beauty Blog report are friends and mentors.  My heartfelt congratulations goes out to each of them.

This has been an exciting year of growth at Beauty411, where it's my goal to bring you the best in makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty.

Thanks to everyone who reads Beauty411.  I appreciate and value your support!

 

Beauty411 in Woman's World Magazine

If you're out shopping this weekend, check out the June 22nd edition of Woman's World Magazine on newstands now, where Beauty411 is featured in The Best...Self Tanner column. 

Interviewed for my thoughts on the best self-tanning towelettes, I picked Comodynes as my favorite. Comodynes towelettes are easy and convenient to apply, provide good color with minimal odor and are easy on the budget at about $12.99 for 8 sheets. 

At the time of the interview, I hadn't had a chance to try the Kate Somerville Somer 360 Tanning Towelettes.  The results are equally as good as Comodynes and the towelette is larger, but the Somer 360 Tanning Towelettes are more expensive.

If you're a self-tanning fan or if you've never tried one and need some product recommendations, pick up this week's Woman's World Magazine.

Beauty411 on All Lacquered Up!

If you're a nail polish fanatic, chances are you're already a reader of the All Lacquered Up blog.  If you haven't checked it out yet, today's a great day to do that.  Michelle has a featured called "What's On Your Nails" and today she's profiled me!

Here's a snippet from the interview:

ALU:  Do you have a favorite nail treatment you think my readers should know about? Why is it so fab?

Beauty411:  A couple of favorites. The Seche Vite Topcoat, which I learned from reading your blog and talking to you at the Total Beauty Summit! It's now something I use regularly. I also like the Lippmann Start Me Up treatment set/products.

I'm a Blogging Babe on Glamour's The Girls in the Beauty Department Blog!

Take a minute to check out my interview with Beth, one of Glamour's Girls In The Beauty Department bloggers!  It was so much fun talking about my favorite beauty products and the inspiration behind Beauty411; thanks for featuring me!

Here's a snippet from the interview, but make sure to check the complete interview here!

TGBD: Our readers recently told us what shades of eyeliner they like to wear. What are your faves?

Nancy: I love Bobbi Brown Gel Eyeliner; my absolute favorite shade is Black Mauve Shimmer Ink. Another favorite is Chanel Black Shimmer. I can't wear black liquid eyeliner; on me it's scary looking and aging. I'm better off tightlining or for a more dramatic look, doing the "Rihanna reverse eyeliner" on the bottom lash line. I think that using the new Estée Lauder Duo-Tone Eye Pencil in Aqua Teal would be a great look for summer.
