Well, right now at Elizabeth Arden, with coupon code BEAUTY25, we score a FREE 4 piece Deluxe Beauty Box.

The box is pretty cool, it includes a Double Density Maximum Volume Mascara, an Eyeshadow Quad, Mediterranean Eau de Parfum Spray, and a Ceramide Plump Perfect Eye Moisture Cream SPF 15.

As these are all items I’m a fan of anyway, it’s a doubly good deal – especially if you were going shopping there regardless!

Essie is hands down, one of the finest lines of nail polish on the market. The price is very reasonable, and the fact that most professionals use Essie should speak highly of its quality. Essie’s Winter 07 collection is in salons now, and is a beautiful collection of silvers, plums and festive reds!

From now until December 16th, you can get 10% off your purchases (of $40 or more) at essie.com by using the discount code BLG8, so pick up some stocking stuffers, or some beautiful holiday colors for yourself!

Blog. To me, the word most resembles the sound someone makes to indicate that she desperately needs the Heimlich maneuver. It also reminds me of elderly European men on street corners, who emit guttural explosions (Blech! Blugh! Blog!) to pass the long afternoons. Still, I rather like it since it well represents the way we spit out info. Apparently, the word affronts Anna Wintour enough that she has appealed to her Vogue staff to come up with a chicer mot—as was reported by Page Six. Perhaps the winner at Vogue will receive a free pass to eat a Kit-Kat without being fired. Want to weigh in? Visit TheStylephile.com and post your best idea for a substitute word for blog in the comments section beneath this post. The winner will receive a gift bag filled with make-up (MAC, Nars) and other great goodies hand-picked from my beauty closet.

Anna Wintour sort of cracks me up. She reminds me of my grandmother – everything must be “just so,” and it never is. Personally, I am rather attached to “blog” these days, but if you have a great idea for a new word, maybe you can swing my vote. In case you are unaware of where the word came from in the first place, “Blog” is a shorter, friendlier version of the words “web log” (and the condensed, weblog). A blog is a sort of online diary, updated frequently (hopefully!), with the most current information on the front page at the top. You are visiting one now.

Not so often I get to talk geek on eBeautyDaily. w00t!

I am sure all of you flat iron fans out there know all about the Sedu irons, and their wonderful reputation as the hands down best iron out there. They have a new model that has launched, the Sedu Revolution Iron.

This iron is designed for not only doing straight hairstyles, but the plates are curved on the edges, which makes curled hairstyling possible as well. I think the flat iron has just about outdated the barrel curling iron – if not, I don’t think it will be long! This is a graphic from Folica that shows the features of this iron that make it a great tool for curling – notice the curved edges of the plates (which keeps it from making a crimp in your hair when you use it for curling), and the grooves (in red) on the iron itself that hold your hair in place (keeping it from exiting the iron on the ends of the plate.

This iron uses tourmaline technology – this is a bit from them as to how that is beneficial to your hair:

The Sedu Revolution heat styling tool uses a recently developed process that utilizes nano technology to micronize particles of tourmaline, infusing them directly into the plates of the styling appliance. Tourmaline – a semi-precious gemstone known for its negative ion properties – in this superfine, micronized form, exudes a potent mass of negative ions, enabling the moisture to be sealed directly into the hair’s cuticle. This increased amount of ionic energy allows the hair appliance to give incredible ‘slip’ through the hair, while the revolutionary curved plates allow for added versatility with one styling tool.

It should definitely be noted, that while these types of irons definitely minimize damage to your hair, that any heat styling tools have the potential to damage. Sedu (and many other manufacturers) has a line of protective styling products, and I always suggest you use one when heat styling your hair.

I have been dying to try a Sedu iron for so long – they are on sale right now at Folica, for $129.95 with free shipping and a free heat proof mat/wrap combo product to protect your surfaces from the intense heat of the iron – the special offers end “soon” (don’t know how soon), so if you have been lusting after Sedu like I have been – hurry on over there and pick one up. Then, come tell me what you think about it!
