Splendora Newsletter, September 16, 2005
| | Some of you may have noticed that we dropped the "Friday For Play" from our newsletter and replaced it with the less catchy (generic) title: Splendora Style Forecast. The change was necessary to avoid brand confusion and streamline our online channels. But, don't worry, we'll continue to entertain you every Friday and tell you what's what for the weekend. |
| A TOAST TO US  The upcoming episode of Oprah's interview with Jennifer Aniston features the duo toasting with glasses of champagne. And although the toast is probably to something like "newfound independence" or "reclaiming your spirit," you know that Oprah and Jen are actually thinking, "Here's to us making more money in syndicated television than anyone else." Word. See Oprah's 20th Anniversary Premiere Promo |
| THE SPLENDORA SUPER TAB  In a week where we thought no amount of gossip could trump Britney giving birth to her first child, P.M.S. (Preston Michael Spears), we were hit with a colossal wave of choice celebrity news. Early yesterday we were treated to photos in the UK's Daily Mirror of Kate Moss blowing lines, an event about as "shocking" as Naomi Campbell chucking a phone at her assistant. And in another stunning turn of events, Renufffde Zellweger and her honky tonk hubby of 4 1/2 months are seeking an annulment. The best part about this story is that Zellweger is citing "fraud" as the reason for the split. What happened? Did Kenny promise that he would take the cowboy hat off before bedtime and subsequently refuse? Did RZ discover that Kenny's stalker hit "You Had Me From Hello" was actually about Tom Cruise? Enquiring minds want to know. There was just so much scandal to go 'round that we had to create our own super tabloid cover (at left) to fit it all in. |
| Splendora at the Beauty Buffet  Beauty expert and longtime Splendora veteran, Hillary Clark, has launched her own make-up line: Beauty Buffet. This ingenious line is a buffet of scrumptious products--for eyes, cheeks, and lips--which you can mix and match in a chic, quilted patent leather palette that looks more like a fashion accessory than a practical pan. But beyond the packaging, Beauty Buffet is one of the best make-up lines we've tried in years. The consistency of the eyeshadows is silky smooth and the glosses are yummy smelling. Sophisticated colors like Luxe, Jalouse, and Come Hither look gorgeous on every skin tone. We fell in love with a shimmering ruby rose, chocolatey smelling lip gloss that looked amazing on every girl in the office. So, how cool is it that Hillary named it Splendora? Buy Splendora Gloss |
