On style, she rules

I saw a celebrity wearing gold eye-liner and no eye-shadow. She had applied only a little and it looked really cool. Where can I buy some?

The Dictator rules: How old are you? Twelve? When are you going to learn that starlet styling doesn't always translate into real life, especially if you're following Christina Aguilera's lead. They have professionals to help them with their make-up. Gold eye make-up ranges from pale yellow, prone to resemble advanced conjunctivitis, to flattering bronze. Sonia Rykiel solves the problem with a different gold tone on either end of its eye-pencil ($144; Sa Sa, 38 Russell Street, Causeway Bay, tel: 2451 1088). Go for a medium gold like MAC's metallic gold eye-pencil ($120; MAC, shop UG43, Festival Walk, Kowloon Tong, tel: 2265 7218). If you can handle it, go for the popular liquid eye-liner by Nars in Showgirl gold. The eye-liner comes with a brush ($260; Nars, shop B3, The Landmark, Central, tel: 2523 3805). I'll admit, gold eye-liner could look good worn with brown eye-shadow after the sun's gone down ... in the dark.

As winter is subsiding, where can I find 'a jumper shaver' to shave bobbles off woollies? Nothing too expensive please!
