Your Red Lipstick Day at Harrods
Posted May 18, 2010
For any Londoner or London visitor, Harrods is the beauty destination. The diverse offer and the ranges of exclusive products do push Harrods on the top of the game. As we all know nothing is standard in this very unique department store. Following tradition, May 2010 is once again a month where beauty and skincare are highlighted and therefore Harrods has decided for the second year to partner with Look Good… Feel Better, the cancer support charity. We have all seen the damage caused by cancer treatments on a woman’s skin, hair and life. It is very difficult to find the strength to go on when you cannot recognize yourself in the mirror. Look Good … Feel Better and Harrods have come up with an initiative that prove to be very successful last year and are therefore reconducting it in 2010. If one can support this charity throughout the Month at Harrods and donate, there is one heyday, 27th May when the best of the best make-up artist talents from around the world will join forces to help raising money. By showing you how to perfect this season’s hottest lip trend and turning you from a faded beauty to a glamorous woman. Personal consultations will be available from top international and catwalk make-up artists including Pat McGrath’s protégé Emma Kotch for Dolce&Gabbana, Mary Greenwell for Chanel, Jamie Coombes for Dior or Claire Rae for Lancôme.
The perfect red lips can take you very far so before you head out of the Harrods Store; do not forget to leave your print on the KISS & MAKE-UP WALL. It is new this year, for £2, you will receive a mini “lip-over” plus an invitation to imprint your kiss on a Harrods “kiss Card” with a message of your choice. The KISS & MAKE-UP WALL runs from May 15th to May 27th.
For more information please visit: harrods.com or if you happen to be in the store, catch one of the Harrods “Red Lipstick Day” mobile make-up team who will be walking around with “usherette” trays full of every shade of red lipstick.

This charity organization helps women manage the visible side effects of cancer treatments by offering a free and incredibly valuable service providing skincare and make-up workshops in 58 hospitals and cancer support centres nationwide.

At 27, Dolce&Gabbana have achieved an impressive status, client base and cult following. The brand’s capacity to take the artistic traditions and aesthetic of Italy and make them their own is unsurpassable and highly romantic to fashion lovers. Their idiosyncratic designs, ironic take on classic dress and the brand’s emblematic items have all contributed in making Dolce&Gabbana a household name. For this instalment of our archive lead considerations of what makes up the Dolce&Gabbana DNA we concentrate on maybe one of the strongest statement the designers have made over the years: the corset.
When I was a child, my parents used to take me to a little village, where we would have almond “granita” and collect fresh water form a little drinking fountain, afterwards. This little place is called Scopello and it was time for me to return to my childhood and explore as an adult.
The scenario is…you are only in London for 24hrs. This doesn’t have to mean being stuck in your hotel wanting but not knowing what to do. Enlightened travellers continually ask the question - What would a Londoner do? Have no fear Luxury London is here…
There’s no need to go far afield to exotic locations to find adventure. In recent years adventures have been rediscovering urban winders right on our very doorsteps. Urban Exploration, known also as Urbex or UE, is an (often illegal) activity that explores unseen or unknown sights in the urban environment.
It appears that Ivan Olita’s scouting has led him straight to New York City’s very own scout, a movie location scout to be exact. Nick Carr’s job means that he gets to explore every nook and cranny that NYC has to offer, allowing him to discover the hidden details that many wouldn’t see. Ivan Investigates…
Whilst collaborating with Swide for The Matt Silk Collection SS12 video, Luca Finotti gave us the chance to get him in front of the camera for an exclusive interview. Whether it’s talking about his love affair with the camera, his views on what ‘ugly is’ or how he keeps himself sane, the up and coming fashion director was as natural in front of the camera as he is behind it.
The Cannes Film Festival is the epitome of European high glamour on the French Riviera. Sun, surf and…suits. Swide catches three stars who put their best foot forward in Dolce&Gabbana. Gerard Butler, Mathew McConaughey and Zac Efron got suited up to face the onslaught of press photographers that infest every event at Cannes.
Kylie Minogue has had a very very good week indeed. Sparkling brighter than ever at the Cannes Film Festival premier of ‘Holy Motors’, wearing Dolce&Gabbana, and then causing explosive reaction throughout the internet when her new single and video ‘Timebomb’ was dropped today.
