Victoria Beckham Dermalogica
In Victoria Beckham’s new book “That Extra Half and Inch: Heels, Hair and Everything in Between,” Dermalogica products and skin treatments are repeatedly recognised as the must have skin care items you should not live without. When performing her skin care rituals in the privacy of her own home, Victoria chooses Multi Vitamin Power Recovery Masque. “I love face packs too and try to do two a week using Dermalogica’s Multi Vitamin Power Recovery Masque, which I call my little ambulance in a tube.” Dermalogica’s Multi Vitamin Hand and Nail Treatment “lasts you through the day.”
Best quote in the book “We all make mistakes from time to time. I once wore an Armani dress to a Dolce & Gabbana party! How dumb was that?”
Book Press Release
That Extra Half an Inch by Victoria Beckham
Michael Joseph, £20
I have no qualifications to write this book; that’s why I’ve got someone else to do it for me. But let me share my insights anyway. First I’d like to knock something on the head. The idea that, once you have a bit of money, you start wearing couture and stilettos all day and live on caviar and champagne is just nonsense. They’ve both got far too many calories.
My own inspirations come from Grace Kelly, Jackie Onassis and Giacometti sculpture, but this book is not my attempt to tell you what or what not to do. It’s my last chance to cash in on what remains of my fame before David retires.
Even though I do love getting dressed up, jeans remain the staple of my wardrobe. They’re so easy for staff to throw in the washing machine when they get dirty. Jeans that sag at the bottom are a nightmare and I was thrilled when Rock and Republic allowed me to use the GCSE in textiles that I nearly passed to put my name to a design that someone else made. You won’t be able to afford them, though, so you should go to Gap.
“Victoria is a fashion icon and she spends a lot of money in our shops” – Christopher Bailey, Burberry.
I’m a great fan of vintage T-shirts. A word about vintage, though: it’s easy to get confused about the difference between vintage and second-hand and that’s because they’re basically the same. If you want to be safe, look for something that’s ridiculously overpriced. Blouses and halter-necks don’t really do it for me, though you can wear them if you want to look like you shop at Primark, but nobody should be without a £1,000 Chanel cardigan. Have a look in charity shops if you can’t afford a new one.
Think twice before wearing a miniskirt. You might look like Naomi Campbell, but more likely you’ll end up looking like that minger Jordan, who never slept with David no matter what she says. And going out wearing no knickers underneath – I’m mentioning no names here! – just makes you look like a right slapper. Try wearing a pencil skirt, like me. They are so classy – especially if you buy them from Roland Mouret or Alexander McQueen. Empire-line dresses are also perfect for those bloated days when you’ve eaten breakfast.
“I am grateful for the possibility of being close to Victoria’s credit card” – Roberto Cavalli.
Every girl should have masses of accessories. I couldn’t live without my Manolos or Christian Louboutins and I never go out without throwing on my Chanel sunglasses. Make sure you always take a friend with you when you go shopping – it’s so useful to have someone to carry the bags – and remember, if you can’t find exactly what you’re looking for, there are plenty more outlets in Paris, Madrid and New York. The one accessory over which I would advise caution is a tattoo – I love mine and David’s to bits but you should always check they’re spelt right.
Your bra doesn’t have to match your knickers, but make sure you buy one that fits. Not everyone can aff ord a boob job – not that I’ve had one, mind, and even if I had, I would never have one as obvious as some people I can think of – and there’s nothing worse than a bit of droop, if you get my meaning, girls! And do keep your thongs inside your jeans, unless they come from Agent Provocateur.
You can never spend too much money on hair and beauty products, unless you haven’t got any. Using cheap shampoo makes your hair lifeless – and no one wants to look like they’ve got extensions. Finally, don’t be afraid to be yourself. We all make mistakes from time to time. I once wore an Armani dress to a Dolce & Gabbana party! How dumb was that?

The secret to a natural look. Beauty Tips For Skin
The best thing you can do for your skin is to to take care of it. Here we share our secret to a natural finish and how to keep your makeup lasting longer. We share what we know about achieving your perfect look.
Achieving The Beauty Basics
To prepare your skin for your makeup, always start off with clean, moisturized skin. You’ll find that your makeup glides on and blends more easily.
Keep your skin free clean by using a gentle cleanser in the morning and at night. When cleansing your face, do so gently in upward motion stokes
Freshen up your skin with a toner containing ingredients that suit your skin type.
Indulge your skin and keep it hydrated with a moisturizer that are compatable with your skin type. Make sure your daytime moisturizer contains SPF to protect your skin from the sun.
Treat yourself to facial 2 to 3 times a week. Use a mild cleanser, then exfoliate with a gentle scrub that contains exfoliants that are round and non abrasive.
Apply a facial mask after exfoliating. Always rinse off thoroughly.
The secret to a natural beauty look.
Apply your foundation to cheeks, forehead, and chin using a foundation brush, sponge, or clean fingertips. Blend the foundation all the way to your natural hairline with long, light strokes.
Continue blending around the jawline and onto your neck to achieve a natural look. Check your face and neck in natural light to make sure the foundation is completely blended in all areas.
If under eye circles or red spots remain, do not add more foundation, instead, try a concealer.
Concealer is more heavy than foundation, allowing fuller coverage of trouble spots and red areas. It can be used over foundation or on its own.
Since the skin under your eyes is more transparent, it tends to look dark. To even out the tone, concealer is a must. Using liquid concealer, gently pat over dark under eye circles, then blend with your finger.
To cover trouble spots and imperfections, apply a thicker cream concealer onto the blemish or flaw. Then lightly press with a makeup sponge.
The perfect all day flawless finish.
A light even dusting of loose powder sets foundation and concealer, giving your face a velvety, more natural finish.
Dip your powder brush in loose powder and shake off excess to avoid uneven distribution, then apply powder over entire face and neck.
To maintain a perfect finish throughout the day, apply pressed powder using a sponge or clean powder brush.
