The Law of Attraction
Aphrodisiac, a new perfume from LUMAR OF BEVERLY HILLS, was created to help women increase confidence and desirability. The inspiration? An ancient bath oil recipe used by royalty. The seductive ingredients include rose petals, amber and white tuberose, whose carnal scent is a natural aphrodisiac. The silky formula also hydrates and restructures the skin. lumarofbeverlyhills.com —M.D.

PUT A CRIMP IN IT
At Betsey Johnson's fall/winter '08 runway show, Redken stylist Ellen Lawlor worked a crimping iron to create lots of volume. To duplicate the look, try the Hot Tools Helix Convertible Flat Iron and Crimper Kit with interchangeable plates. hotus.com —M.D.

WHAT'S IN A NAME?
Ever wonder where PRAVANA got its name? Company founder Steve Goddard's daughter Faith, 11, came up with the name of the haircare brand by combining Prada and Nirvana. Later, when Goddard found out that pravana actually means "source of all things" in Sanskrit, he was sold. —M.D.
