A Handsome Newfound Love...*kyoku.

Happy one more time, as for the past who knows how many seasons, to be directing beauty at the Carlos Campos' Fall/Winter 2011-12 fashion presentation. As a makeup artist, you are always looking for the ideal makeup/skin care sponsor to go hand-in-hand with the designer's vision; for example, the minimalist designer paired with the minimalist makeup line, and so forth. Well, this season I have made a match in heaven, Carlos Campos and *kyoku for men, my newfound love!

*kyoku for men is man's man line. Founded by Asim Akhtar, the son of one of the founders of StriVectin, *kyoku was inspired by the healthy living of the people of Yuzuri Hara, a village just about two hours outside of Tokyo, Japan. In this village, diabetes, heart disease and Alzheimer's are simply non-existent. But, the added bonus of living in Yuzuri: flawless skin.

The skin care line is infused with amazing ingredients like bamboo extract to pump up your skin's hyaluronic acid (the stuff babies have abundantly in their skin, hence their soft derriere) and volcanic ash for deep detoxification of the skin. It's like having a going-away-detox-program but at home, like Charlie Sheen sans lost episodes of "Two and a Half Men", twitching and texting.

Those who know me well are aware that I'm not a morning person, although I'll definitely wake up happy for some "sake infused shave cream." Oh yeah! One of my favorite products from *kyoku. You bet I'll follow up with some extra Mimosas and I'll be a happy morning-er.

The eye fuel? A double whammy. A winner! One pump bottle that divides into two separate chambers: one pumps the uplifting eye gel and the other the eye radiance creme. Voila! No tired glances at the show.

I hope you can join me this Saturday, February 12th, for the Carlos Campos' Fall/Winter 2011-12 fashion presentation at Exit Art (remember to RSVP). We'll be having fun, for sure, and the men will definitely be that man's man all women want and men want to emulate.

I have to say, I'm in love with *kyoku for men. I hope you fall in love too!

Oh! Soon to come exclusively at Barney's NY.

De Compras - Part Deux. Lo que no cupo en Magacín.

Foto: Ivonne Carlo Photography !Hola a tod@s y feliz año 2013! Les deseo paz, amor, éxito, abundante salud... y que seamos mas comprensivos, empáticos... para así entender que no todo cabe un una pagina web. Por eso aquí les dejo con las imágenes y enlaces que no cupieron en el articulo original " De Compras " por Larissa Vázquez Zapata , editora de Magacín . Espero les guste esta extensión, que es todo lo que se lee en cursiva. Karlo Karlo, maquillista puertorriqueño residente en N.Y., comparte sus gustos. Mis lugares predilectos para hacer compras: 1. El mercado de pulgas de Brooklyn ( enlace en articulo original ) . No hay nada que me fascine más que la amalgama de lo nuevo y vintage; la idea es combinarlas, que se seduzcan, así se enaltecen respectivamente. Entre el regateo y el eye candy, uno de los mejores pasatiempos sabatinos. 2. Florencia, Italia. En The Mall, ubicado en Incisa, Val d'Arno ( enlace en articulo original )...

And they lived happily ever after, drank Bellinis (the signature drink at Cipriani) , danced amongst lovely and beautiful people with wonderful hearts at the "ritmo" of Marcelo Cunning, and above of all, they were happy to save lives. Here is the veredict...

Fashion Night Out...

Ruben Toledo, Isabel Toledo + Karlo. (Remember, 'click' on any photo to enlarge.) Fashion Night Out was a success! Although it went unpredicted it was lots of fun. We were supposed to map it like this: Barney's, Bergdorf, Louis Vuitton, and then see my friend Olivier at Longchamp. But the Universe intended us to do something else, just Barney's... surrounded by glory; Ken Greene & Douglas Muller of the Hudson Valley Seed Library , Valerie & Jean of 'Ideiosyncraticfashionistas ', Rod Keenan , millinery maste,r and Ruben & Isabel Toledo who graced us with their passion, style, and wonderful sketches. Side note: For the record, I think Isabel Toledo and Ruben are the hottest couples right now in the contemporary art world. Talent, passion, style, vision, 'cultura'... what else can you ask for? Woof! Ken Greene, Douglas Muller, Maria LaBoy & Karlo. Jean & Valerie from 'Idiosyncratic Fashionistas' Ruben Toledo, his ...
