Apparently that means citrus, rose water, wild violets, amber and jasmine. Which is what beauty products smell like, apparently, because in order to help direct the perfumers who created her new scent, Jennifer Aniston brought in her fave hair serum and a lotion (as well as a candle) for inspiration.
So in THAT case—even though I’m not really Team Aniston, I’ll bite. For years I’ve said that beauty companies should bottle the scents they put in their products… so maybe it’s finally happening! (Not just the reverse situation, which I wrote about earlier today.)
Anyway! Let’s take a closer look at the bottle, which Jen showed off at the London Harrods launch. It’s now just called Jennifer Aniston, not Lola Vie, as reported earlier. Which I think is a smart move, branding-wise, because why else are they doing this at all if not to capitalize on her star power? (And probably Marc Jacobs, who makes the similarly-named but far prettier-looking Lola, is pleased.)
And now for a full-body shot. It must be said that I am supremely jealous of this (41-year-old!) woman’s figure. Damn.
So… will you be checking out Jen’s scent or is do you think it’ll be a snoozerama just like her movies?
People magazine’s annual beauty barometer is out tomorrow, and while the usual suspects (Julia Roberts, Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Aniston, Jennifer Lopez, Halle Berry and Scarlett Johansson) are on the list, I’m more interested in the newcomers.
That would be Zoë Saldana, Sofia Vergara, Katy Perry, Amanda Seyfried, Kristen Stewart and Jessica Szohr.
Oh, and some kid with great hair named Justin Bieber. (Maybe you’ve heard of him?)
I’m going to go with Zoë and Amanda as my favourite new faces… but tell me what you think:
So Jennifer Aniston did her usual last night: glowy tan, understated makeup and to-die-for blonde highlights. It’s boring, but it works—and I can’t say I wouldn’t do the same if I were in her shoes.
Let’s take a closer look at the hair for a minute. We know, of course, that Jen is a natural brunette, but doesn’t this look like she was born with it? I’m guessing that her hairdresser does an all-over demi-permanent colour to warm up her ashy base, and then adds tons of verrrry fine blonde highlights all over in various shades, staggering them at the roots so they don’t look too obvious. She never makes the mistake of going too blonde; plus, there are lowlights (look at the ends of her hair and you’ll see).
It’s an art, people. But it’s damn hard to find a hairdresser capable of this. In Toronto, the closest I’ve come is my girl Joanna at Taz Hair.
