Last Friday I had the honor to be a presenter at the CEW Beauty Awards at the Waldorf Astoria. I can’t even begin to explain how excited I was and how big of a deal this was for me. Everyone who’s anyone in the beauty industry is there. CEO’s of every company, their PR and marketing teams that I work with daily and everyone in edit. Literally, the Waldorf Astoria ballroom is full of about 1,000 of beauty’s best. Let’s put it this way, it’s an honor to be invited every year, but to be ask to present is the biggest honor. This is the first year they had members of the industry present. Mario Cantone from Sex and the City hosted as he does every year and let’s just say he decided to have some fun introducing me.

Wednesday night I had the pleasure of joining MAC Cosmetics at Anything Goes on Broadway to celebrate the launch of their new collection inspired by the show, Hey, Sailor.

The look embodied the 1930′s classic theme of the show: romance, hope and happiness, but what caught my attention was that every woman in the cast wore an effortless red lip that lasted through all the kissing and didn’t transfer onto the man.

Every once in a while you need to have “the talk” with your man. Well, “the talk” I have with Joe is always about skin care! Time after time, as men’s skin care brands send new products for him to try, we have “the talk” about why he should be using necessities like eye cream and exfoliator. This week, after two years, I conquered the exfoliator quest! Ladies, it’s not “exfoliator” it’s “grit.” You know, the gritty stuff that gets rid of the gunk in your pores. Whatever works! Here are my top grit picks for your man (Joe approved).
I can’t even begin to tell you how many questions I receive daily from women and men (yes, men too) about beauty and grooming. So many that it encouraged me to start a “Dear Jeannine” column. They come in from all angles: Facebook messages, emails, Twitter DM’s and even Linked In. I’m honored and humbled and love answering them! If you have a question, the best way to submit is to go through BeautySweetSpot’s Facebook Fan page. From now on I’ll be answering them all and occasionally publish Q&A’s on the site. Here’s the first one:
I’m so honored and excited to be a presenter at the CEW Beauty Awards this year! For those of you who are unfamiliar with the event, it’s like the Oscars of the beauty industry. This Friday, Mario Cantone from Sex and the City will be hosting (again) and I’ll be presenting awards in several categories to some of my favorite brands. For now, I’m practicing, “And the winner is…” Stay tuned for details from the event! I can’t wait to show you what I’m wearing!
