MAKEUP
• Avon signed Jordin Sparks as the new Chief Inspirational Officer for Mark, the brand’s teen-targeted line. Lauren Conrad also promoted the brand, though Avon never gave her a title that included the word “inspiration.” [WWD]

FRAGRANCE
• These little paper-flower earrings are designed for you to scent with your own perfume. Thank God — we have always wanted that. [Now Smell This]

SKIN
• The Delightful Shape gel cream from L’Occitane claims to firm skin and reduce appearance of cellulite by promoting skin circulation. Right. [British Vogue]

• Earth Day is twelve days away, so it seems about time for a report that claims the number of new environmentally friendly products has grown over 200 percent since 2002. In 2007, 328 green goodies launched, compared to five in 2002. It’s a bit sad that no one gave a crap five years ago. Then again, it wasn’t quite so chic then, was it? [Cosmetics and Toiletries]

HAIR
• Legendary hair colorist Jet Rhys’s spring must-haves include Angel perfume by Thierry Mugler and the Crystal Gel Treatment by Malibu Wellness for hair. [Daily Obsession]
