Sex and the Mole!

Oh the horror! The internet is still buzzing over the sudden disappearance of Sarah Jessica Parker's (famous?) mole. Some argue that the mole on her chin was as much a trademark for SJP, as the Manolo's worn by Carrie Bradshaw on HBO's Sex and the City! Despite our obvious weakness for a well placed beauty mark, we're not so sure this is a story worthy of such scrutiny. Earlier controversy regarding SJP's looks have included being voted un-sexiest celebrity & calling her face horse-like. Those of us who are fans ("loved you since Square Pegs!") know her true appeal is her ability to wear a dress, in rockin' heels & inspire the kind of dressing that only seems to exist between the pages of a fashion magazine, all the while charming us with her warm personality (Posh Spice take note!). To me, her mole, like her sex appeal or the horsey-ness of her face shape is simply not on my radar! So get over it people, it's SJP not Cindy Crawford!

Want to rock a beauty mark in support of the mole? Here are a couple of tips:
  • Use a pencil to create the iconic beauty mark. You don't have to use black, you can use a brown or bark shade to create a more natural looking mark.
  • A beauty mark is a great way to hide a blemish on the face.
  • Sport the beauty mark when fully made up. Don't try this look on a fresh, makeup-less face.
  • After applying the tell-tale spot, use a loose powder to set your look.
