I adore Sonia Kashuk's line of incredible (and affordable) makeup, brushes and wildly chic, travel-inspired accessories. So when I heard she was coming out with bath and body products, I knew they would be good. And it turns out they're even more fabulous than I imagined. The scents are sophisticated and expensive-smelling (yes, expensive has a scent: just think of Chanel), and the packaging is beyond gorgeous. (Kashuk used the same design firm as Oribe.)

I had a really hard time deciding on a favorite fragrance, but I finally chose Red Promisia -- a combination of jasmine, sandalwood, and vanilla. Picking a single product proved too difficult, and since the price is right, I'm getting one of each.

If you're not familiar with Dr. Brandt -- the superstar dermatologist responsible for Madonna's eternal youth -- then you're missing out. The man knows his stuff. His latest collection is DNA (Do Not Age), and the science will blow you away.

After five years of research and six patents, Brandt developed DuoPearl technology. The serum is made of little "pearls" of ingredients that burst when you apply it. (Keeping the ingredients separate means maximum results.) The best part? You really, truly can feel it working -- tingling and tightening.

And in case my endorsement isn't enough, Madonna's also a fan. "I love how tight my face feels after applying more than I probably should," she said in an interview with Harper's Bazaar.

You know how when you go swimming or take a bath (or -- the worst offender -- do dishes without gloves) with a fresh manicure, and you inevitably emerge from the water with lackluster nails? Well, Sally Hansen is going to change all that. They developed this polish specifically for shine retention. It starts out super shiny, and it stays super shiny. It comes in 29 colors, and even has nail-moisturizing ingredients. I'm ready to paint my toes and go on a beach vacation. Who's with me?

After 15 years of a Katie Holmes obsession (to call me a "Dawson's Creek" fan would be an understatement), I finally got to meet her (eek!). I hung on every word she said -- the most important of which was her endorsement for this dry shampoo. To paraphrase: she loves dessert, and this smells like dessert. She's obsessed -- and I'm as starry-eyed as ever.

As soon as I got my hands on the dry shampoo, I went to town. While it didn't give me Holmes's hair (she's got at least six inches on me), it gave me volume, texture, and made my hair smell deliciously like mango and coconut -- just like Katie's.

I'm a nut for the holidays. Christmas music in October? That's me. Decorations? I'm putting them up this weekend. And I'm equally gaga for holiday-scented candles. If it smells like a tree, cranberries, or gingerbread I want six.

Still, my tiny New York City apartment can easily be overwhelmed by artificial holly scent, and then my husband and I both wind up with massive headaches. So I look for subtle, natural holiday-ish candles instead. The latest from Red Flower -- dubbed Wanderlust, which I love -- is exactly that. It's a tinge of holiday. (Think Trans-Siberian Orchestra instead of Mariah Carey.) It smells exactly like the Christmas tree farm I used to visit with my family when I was a kid. I want seven of them.
