This season, AK-47 and I headed backstage at Venexiana to talk with make-up artist, Lisa Aharon about the make-up for Venexiana Fall 2012.
Daniela Giacomorro means to the world to me. If you’ve read any of my previous “works” you’d know that I don’t hesitate to shine a murderous light down upon worthless [monsters], and I couldn’t be happier to throw a light from a different direction, to give it my best shot to propel this woman straight through the Heavens.
If I had not spent countless late night hours over many, many months alone with this woman while the rest of you sleep, I wouldn’t have written a single word…But because I have, I’m going to tell you something about her. Daniela has Muscular Dystrophy. She has two beautiful daughters that will never, ever let her be alone. Her heart is built out of a fiber that doesn’t exist anymore. Her love is what dreams are made of. She has never judged a soul, and all souls are welcomed by her. Daniela and I have an inverse poetic bond. The world tried to kill me and the world wants to kill her. You can find us drinking wine and telling the universe to go f* itself on a nightly basis.They only way to keep Daniela strong is through Stem-Cell treatments. These treatments are $25,000 a pop, which means that, if she’s lucky, we might make it so that she won’t be in pain every time she tries to stand up. A single treatment makes an angel walk gracefully across a room. A single treatment makes a Seraphim’s eyes not need to pretend that it doesn’t hurt to raise her children up into the air.

Beauty is relative and ideas of what is attractive vary throughout the world. Allure magazine recently compiled various views on what physical characteristics are most striking and what makes some self-conscious. They polled 2,000 men and women from across the country to gain insight into current views on body type, age, and hair color. The results are quite surprising.
According to the mag’s study, curves account for what women feel most conflicted about. A whopping 73 percent of women say that a curvier body type is more desirable. Yet, 85 percent of women wish they had smaller hips! But hips aren’t the only body part that women stress about. 35 percent say that their mid-section is what they would like to change most.
Another rough subject is aging. A stunning 93 percent of women feel that aging is difficult to accept as the pressure to stay youthful has more weight than ever before. It’s highly likely that African-American women account for the 7 percent that are content with aging. That’s because they are three times as confident as Caucasian women. More after the jump…
On Monday night Nivea launched their ‘Million Moments of Touch’ campaign by hosting a celeb filled party at the Empire State Building. Speakers included Dr. Drew and dazzling power couple Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O’Connell. The event offered a plethora of free Nivea products, cocktails, and a view that only the 61st floor of the Manhattan’s tallest skyline could give. The theme of the night was touch. The world is dominated by cell phones and the internet. For this reason interpersonal communication and physical interaction, such as hugging and hand holding has been neglected. Nivea’s new campaign is an attempt to encourage more PDA! It is often the case that work and obligations leave little time for romance. Couples often find it difficult to set aside date nights and other designated portions of time for communication.
It has been reported that over 60% of both men and women have a desire to be touched more by their significant other. That’s why the skin care company is offering free date nights for couples through Facebook. Couples can enter to win a date night sponsered by Nivea! Enter here for your chance to win and don’t forget to take some time away from your cellphone and the internet.
