Thanks to the same company that produces the wrinkle-filler Botox, an eyelash boosting drug could soon be fluttering its way through our beauty stores, creating super-long Jessica Rabbit-style lashes for all brave enough to harness its power. Promising to enhance sparse and thinning lashes, Latisse will first be made available under prescription in America and daily use will apparently encourage regrowth of hair follicles. A word of warning though the product’s company has explained that any part of the body exposed to the cream could show hair growth. Scary stuff, huh?!

Loving this Peacock painted bangle, £9.80 at Accessorize.

The super-flare is back with a vengeance. And thanks to denim hero label Siwy, one particular style of the sixties and seventies jean cut is top of the must-have list for the fash-pack. Style A-Listers Kate Moss, Sienna Miller and Nicole Richie have all been seen sporting it… and we can see why. If you’re going down the flare route, this is the one – the 24-inch leg opening and snug thigh and bum fit will more than likely give you a clue as to why. £156.60 at ASOS.com

It seems you can buy anything from Ebay these days – even a germ ridden tissue used by Scarlett Johansson is up for grabs! The idea of selling a used tissue came to the actress during an interview on the Tonight Show with host Jay Leno. Johansson was explaining to Leno how she’d caught a cold from Samuel L Jackson whilst filming their new movie, The Spirit, and came up with the crazy idea that a tissue she’d been using would probably be worth a bob or two since it contained the germs of both Jackson and herself. We kid you not… All proceeds raised from the sale of the snot rag will go to charity and fans have been bidding round the clock – the highest bid currently at $4,050… Fancy that.
