Alec Baldwin’s Plastic-Surgery Plans; Tina Turnbow to Design Makeup for Tarte

PLASTIC SURGERY
• Alec Baldwin on plastic surgery: “I’m not saying I wouldn’t do something! I intend to do something. I probably will. Let’s put it this way: I wouldn’t rule it out because … You don’t think I wake up every day and wish I looked like this and this and this? But I can’t let that bother me.” [Us]

FRAGRANCE
• Perfume critic Chandler Burr on celebrity fragrances: “It is the single best tool for monetizing celebrity that’s ever been created in the history of the world. It is a kind of financial alchemy the likes of which we’ve never seen.” [NPR]

• Professional perfumer Lynn Harris, 41, trained her brain to recognize 1,000 smells. During school, she suffered migraines from sniffing too much, and now she can no longer cook with garlic or eat Indian food because the scents are too strong for her delicate olfactory glands. [Independent UK]

NAILS
