When people are talking about winter scarves, the warmth is probably the only function they can imagine. However, a new developed silk scarf also brings skincare and fashion to you in the winter. After reading this, you will understand how this magic silk scarf works for your skincare and fashion.

New Winter Fashion Silk Scarves
The reason for the word “New” is that the silk fabric itself of this scarf has been developed just recently. This new technology changes the appearance and the feel of the silk fabric. The common image of the silk is sheer, shiny, smooth, and silky. Now the big change is that the silk fabric has cashmere or wool appearance and cashmere-like feel and softness. The technical term for this process is napping which is a finishing process and raised the surface fibers of a fabric by means of passage over rapidly revolving cylinders covered with metal points or teasel burrs. This raised surface totally changes the appearance of the silk. Combined with designer selected woven patterns, those new scarves really bring a fresh wind to our fashion accessory world this winter. In addition, the hand plaited fringe adds more charm to your dress.

How Skincare works
People who have a dry skin usually do not like winter because the dry winter makes the skin even worse. Besides the cosmetics, lotion, what else can we do? Yes. The winter 100% silk scarves are your smart choice. You can see the difference what the silk brings you. First, silk is the most hypoallergenic of all fabrics because it is a natural protein and contains 18 amino acids. Second, silk is both highly absorbent and easily discharging humidity. So it can keep your skin moisture and absorb extra humid while letting your skin breathe. The silk smooth feel makes it the lowest abrasion of all fabrics. Now enjoy your moisture and resilient skin with those luxuriously soft but affordable silk scarves.

What those scarves bring to the fashion world
Silk takes color very well and is easy to work with in weaving so the new silk fabric can bring a huge selection of patterns and color combination. No matter women or men, young kids to senior, people can always find their choices. Also the finely hand plaited fringe is definitely an added value for your dress. Moreover, the special silk feature of draping well and unnecessary thick like wool makes you no more bulky in the winter.



Paris Fashion Week has come and gone! Not to be outdone by the Italian fashion industry, leading Parisian designers unveiled très magnifique collections bolstered by breathtaking sets (à la Karl Lagerfeld’s iceberg runway at Chanel). And hairstylists and makeup artists worked their magic to pretty up the statuesque models who attired in the designs in noteworthy looks.

From bodacious buns to theatrical makeup to intensely teased strands to modern takes on classic ‘dos, the runways of Paris Fashion Week were filled with head-turning beauty. Read on for the details on four gorgeous (and a few outrageous) trends from over the week in Paris.

Big, Bold Buns: We are definitely fans of a chic chignon — but the beauty teams at Chanel, Nina Ricci, and Karl Lagerfeld maximized the ‘do for the catwalk and paired it with standout makeup including smoky eyes, blonde brows and bright red lips, and strong eyebrows that framed golden lids. To achieve volume at the crown, lead hairstylist Guido Palau for Redken at Nina Ricci, boosted strands with Aerate 08 Bodifying Cream-Mousse and set with Forceful 23 Finishing Spray.

Such a Tease: Heavily, textured hair is a major trend on the fall runways, so it was no surprise when we saw models donning teased tresses at Christian Dior and Comme des Garcons. While the hairstylists at Dior went for a more perfected look accentuated with fishtail braids and berry stained lips, the models at Comme des Garcons wore pastel-colored puffs that reminded us of cotton candy. Their designers gathered luxury Christian Dior Accessories Online Store for the bodacious hair. Fashion Christian Dior accessories and fashion Christian Dior handbags gives the models fashionable type. You can get more Christian Dior new products on Christian Dior Accessories Online Store.

Sideshow Glamour: Let’s face it — there are beauty trends that aren’t made for day-to-day wear. But that doesn’t take away from the tremendous detail that produces astonishing hair and makeup masterpieces. From the over-the-top pinned curls and “tanned” complexions at John Galliano to the Bantu knots and pale skin at Comme des Garcons to the messy, kohl-rimmed eyes and red pouts at Vivienne Westwood — Paris Fashion Week served up extreme beauty.

Ladylike Perfection: ‘Dos like the flip, ponytail and slickback will never go out of style, and the beauty teams at Chloé, Louis Vuitton, and Balenicaga perfected these retro styles. To create a classic ponytail that complemented the 1950s inspired collection at Louis Vuitton, hair stylist Guido Palau for Redken, curled the ends and concealed the elastic holder by wrapping it with a piece of hair. Glass 01 Smoothing Serum was the key to a sleek finish. Celebrity makeup artist Pat McGrath took the look at Balenciaga up a notch by painting a few models brows a bright, pastel color.
