NARS is one of my favorite makeup brands but unfortunately it isn’t available locally at beauty stores in Dubai. And while you can purchase it on trips to the US/UK, there are certain times you just can’t wait (as I can see from the search results bringing you to the website)! So here’s a few ways you can buy NARS products without ever leaving Dubai:
Even though I’m a die-hard Dubai-an, sometimes the city seems a little too tidy to me. I miss the graffiti that I got used to seeing all around while living in Los Angeles. So if you don’t have graffiti in Dubai, what do you do? Bring the world-famous graffiti artist FABEL to Dubai!
In association with CKone, Fabel will be visiting Faces and Sephora in Dubai this coming weekend to personalize CKone Shock Street Edition bottles. For every CKone Shock Street Edition Eau de Toilette purchased (AED 230), FABEL will graffiti your name in the back!
I’m a sucker for personalized gifts and this would make a great addition to any perfume addict’s collection! So don’t forget to mark the following dates in your calendar to meet FABEL!
Faces Mall of the Emirates on Thursday 28th of March from 5-9PM
Sephora The Dubai Mall on Friday 29th March from 3-5:30PM
Sephora The Dubai Mall of Saturday 30th of March from 4-8PM
I’m a big, Big, BIG Katy Perry fan. My mornings seem incomplete without blasting “Teenage Dream” or “E.T.” these days. And if her music isn’t enough, I absolutely adore her OTT pin-up girl style. While it isn’t my personal style, I admire her confidence that allows her to work any outfit she is wearing.
Now the queen of glam has released her first scent, a fruity, floral-scented Purr. I’ll be honest, I haven’t managed to check out the scent yet, but with a bottle as gorgeous as this, is there any reason not to buy it?
Purr is exclusive to Sephora Middle East and is available in two sizes: 50 mL for AED 170 or 100 mL for AED 245.

I’m a big fan of vampire-themed shows. While my personal favorite is The Vampire Diaries, the show that resurrected the vampire genre on US television has to be True Blood. The racy and raunchy TV show has a lot of fans out there and it isn’t surprising that the beauty industry found a unique way to promote the premiere of Season 4, set to debut June 26, 2011.
Tarte Cosmetics and Sephora are collaborating to produce three special, True Blood-themed beauty products: a cheek stain, lip stain and a palette. Tarte lip and cheek stains are highly-rated and I’m expecting these limited edition products to be a hit and sold-out in record time.
So far no word on if this collection will be available in Dubai and it seems highly unlikely since Tarte products are generally not available here. But if you happen to be in a Sephora in the US soon, check out the new collection. And we at Dollz in Dubai wouldn’t say no to special gifts of the Tarte for True Blood Lip and Cheek stains!

Tuesday Tip – Issue 6 – Wake Me Up
It’s been a jam-packed few weeks so I apologize for the limited posting. I don’t function very well on limited amounts of sleep. Thankfully, I can turn to my makeup stash to make me look a little more rested than I actually am.
The trick to makeup when you are tired is to go with the less is more and avoid piling on the foundation. To look more awake, you need to emphasize the brightness and try to fake a glow in your complexion. My knight in shining armor is Benefit’s High Beam. High Beam is a pink liquid highlighter that can be used all over your face. To acheive the bright-eyed look, dab some High Beam in the inner corners of your eyes and blend. You can also dab some onto your cheekbones and the bridge of your nose. In case you have more yellow tones, go for the golden version of this, Moon Beam.
And I leave you with the only song that could force me out of bed as a child. Gotta love the 80s!
Benefit is available at all major cosmetic stores including Sephora and Faces.
