• The Bobbi Brown holiday collection includes a limited-edition Copper Diamond Shimmer Brick, which comes in candlelight, gold, copper, beige, and sand shimmer shades. Bronzing isn’t just for summer, after all. [Beautiful Makeup Search]
SKIN
• Soap company Caswell-Massey stocks the favorite soaps of past presidents. They say Washington was a fan of the citrus-bergamot number Six, while Eisenhower favored the Almond Cold Cream and JFK liked the spicy Jockey Club. Sounds like a good gift idea for history buffs. [Valet]
