Gloss Gawking

Gloss Gawking

I have to admit something. I'm a beauty stalker. I know, sounds horrible, right? I promise it's all for a good reason though. I'm a beauty product developer and it's kind of part of my job. The more I know about a person's beauty habits the more I'm able to come up with ideas of newer, better, products. All in the name of research :) You know those people who apply their makeup on the commute to work? Well, my eyes are all over that! I just can't look away! I try to be as discrete as possible about it but I know that the poor women probably feel my stare.

Well, I'm happy to say that now I have a new way to satisfy my obsession and perhaps spare a few poor NYers from my morning gawk. Emily Weiss, former Teen Vogue super intern {you may remember her from The Hills} created Into The Gloss, a fresh new take on beauty blogging, and I cannot get enough of it!

Here's Emily's take on what makes her blog stand apart from the other countless beauty blogs out there...

IntoTheGloss.com is a blog dedicated to Beauty, from the Inside. No, not from within, although that’s great too—Inside in this case means Inside the fashion industry and on the street. You’ll find influencers from editors to stylists and models divulging their carefully curated products, routines and inspirations. You’ll find makeup artists, hair stylists and myriad other specialists talking about what makes them tick, their top tools, and their visions of what’s to come. You’ll see backstage. You’ll see product highlights. And you’ll see the new kids on the block— the assistants, the up-and-comers—along with the intriguing characters out and about, who are shaping our idea of modern Beauty.

The best thing about ITG is the access Emily has to all of these "influencers", top editors, models, stylists, etc. They really open up to her and dish all things beauty. In turn, she presents the info in a refreshing, approachable fashion. My favorite category is “The Top Shelf" where fashion isiders such as Julia Restoin Roitfeld, Lauren Santo Domingo, Jen Brill, and Karlie Kloss open up their beauty cabinets, drawers and bags to reveal their skincare, make-up, hair and nail routines. Surprise, surprise, right? A beauty stalkers dream!

Before I go today I was wondering if you'd indulge a beauty stalker a bit and reveal a few of your beauty bests. What are your faves? I'd LOVE to know! :)

Hope you all have a beautiful day! And happy last day of March!
