But that's because it's Björk and she's exceptionally the exception to most things classic. The green of-the-moment is slightly glimmery and more a gentle wash of sage than a sharp hit of astro turf…

BEAUTY NO-NO’S

BEAUTY NO-NO'S - THAT RUIN YOUR LOOK Dear Sharon: I am faced with a beauty crisis that may ruin my love relationship. I always line my lips with a dark brownish lipliner and fill in the center with a pale pink lipstick.

Perhaps, this is Yvette's feeble way to manipulate the spotlight. Since I'm not a shrink, I will not dare to go there. In social situations, a quick (emphasis on speedy) at the table touch-up of lipstick is okay, but better off reserved for the ladies room when it comes to a business meeting. Lips should look approachable, engaging, and alluring-they are the
