“All metallics are neutrals. So it is absolutely fine to mix gold and silver; you just want it to look like it has purpose.”

EMMA STONE
Emily Jean “Emma” Stone (born November 6, 1988) is an American actress. Born and raised in Scottsdale, Arizona, Stone was drawn to acting as a child, and her first role was in a theater production of The Wind in the Willows in 2000. As a teenager, she relocated to Los Angeles with her mother, and made her television debut in VH1’s In Search of the New Partridge Family (2004), a reality show that produced only an unsold pilot. After a series of small television roles, she won a Young Hollywood Award for her film debut in Superbad (2007), and received positive media attention for her role in Zombieland (2009).
The 2010 teen comedy Easy A was Stone’s first starring role and earned her nominations for the BAFTA Rising Star Award and a Golden Globe Award. This breakthrough role was followed by the commercially successful film Crazy, Stupid, Love (2011), and a supporting part in the critically acclaimed drama The Help (2011). The actress received wider recognition for playing Gwen Stacy in the 2012 superhero film The Amazing Spider-Man, and its sequel in 2014. She was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for the role of a recovering drug addict in the black comedy-drama Birdman (2014). Her Broadway debut came in a revival of the musical Cabaret (2014–15). Stone won the Volpi Cup for Best Actress for playing an aspiring actress in the musical La La Land (2016).
One of the highest-paid actresses in the world in 2015, Stone has been nominated for an Academy Award, two British Academy Film Awards, and two Golden Globe Awards, and has won two Screen Actors Guild Awards. Aside from her acting career, she promotes several causes, such as increasing awareness of breast cancer.

GUCCI: GUILTY PLATINUM EDITION
Gucci presents two new limited editions of Gucci Guilty (2010) and Gucci Guilty Pour Homme (2011) fragrances. Gucci Guilty Platinum Editions are available from September 2016 in metal bottles redesigned so that instead of gold and metallic gray they are colored in platinum, featuring glass windows with an interlocking G. Apparently, the inspiration comes from the urban and romantic universe of the creative director of the house, Alessandro Michele.
Gucci Guilty Platinum Edition retains the original floral and spicy composition. The top notes include geranium and pink pepper. The heart contains lilac and peach. The base includes amber and patchouli. The fragrance is available as a 50 and 75 ml Eau de Toilette.

PAT MCGRATH: NEW LINE METALMORPHOSIS 005
McGrath finally reveals her latest need-it-now creation from Pat McGrath Labs: Metalmorphosis 005, the brand’s biggest launch yet. “It’s the full kit to eye heaven,” McGrath says of the shimmering cream and powder shadows that, through the purest of pigments, allow her to perform breathtaking alchemy. Fans who missed out on the first limited run of Gold 001 will be thrilled to learn of its rerelease, along with three new shades: a burnished copper, burnt bronze, and that soft silver. “Everyone was so insane for the gold, I thought, how far can I push these colors?” McGrath adds.
Quite far, it turns out, with a glob of clear Mehron Mixing Liquid to shift the shadows from sheer to opaque with a bit of blend—taking them from barely there shimmers to seemingly molten metals. The ultimate felt-tip black liner—one end skinny, one thick and slanted for “super-editorial” looks—is the cosmetic cherry on top.
Launching November 15, Metalmorphosis 005 will be available as cream-and-powder sets in individual colorways with the aforementioned mixing liquid and the Black Dual-Ended marker (also sold separately, for true eyeliner devotees), or as the coveted complete bundle aptly titled Everything, destined to become an instant classic. “Pop it with your finger on the mouth with lip balm,” McGrath says of the bold shadow’s surprising ease and versatility. “With bare skin, that’s the modernity. Isn’t it major?” Resoundingly, yes.
