Don't you just love hearing about things we can all agree on?  So when Cosmo asked some fashionable stars to pick their all-time favorite beauty choice, we were all over it!  Check out some of the celebs who have been linked together through their fave beauty pick (see the products below!):

Leighton Meester and Rihanna agree that CoverGirl LashBlast Mascara ($5.99 - $6.79 at Amazon)is "best in show!"

"

Kimora Lee Simmons and Christina Applegate gave Creme de la Mer ($130 to $1390) their kudos.  Says the fabulous Ms. Simmons:

It's super luxurious...There's nothing else like it."

 

Pink and Jennie Garth agree that Smith's Rosebud Salve ($5 at Amazon)rocks the vote.  Have you ever tried it??  Handy little multi-tasker, if you ask me!  Swipe it over your eyes for a dewy look or rub it on dry elbows for instant moisture!

Carmen Electra and Victoria Beckham both voted for Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant ($17 at Amazon).  (Sometimes I wonder how Posh is able to keep up with her kids in those mile-high heels--and very active little boys at that!! Goodness gracious!).  Here's what Carmen says about the mutually-celebrated cream:

It's amazing for travel to hydrate lips and skin."

Mischa Barton, Rihanna, Rachel Zoe, Joely Richardson, and Monica Bellucci are all enjoying Milan's Fashion Week. Several of these celebs attended the Dolce and Gabbana show yesterday afternoon. Tonight's festivities included hitting up the red carpet for Vanity Fair's FabFive party. I can only imagine what their schedules all look like!!

As usual, the ladies looked absolutely fabulous. Mischa comfortably took a chance with her hair and shoe selection. Did she make the right decisions?

Personally, I think Joley and Rihanna both hit it out the park. Any favs?

Rihanna is set to follow in the footsteps of fellow pop star Gwen Stefani and launch her own clothing range. The Disturbia singer has confirmed she is working on her own designs. Anyone excited? I know she has quite the following and can be impactful on trends.

This isn't the first time Rihanna has dabbled in the fashion industry. She has already put her name to a range of umbrellas earlier this year to coincide with her international hit of the same name.

"I can’t say when it will be released, but it’s definitely going to happen. I’m not one to rush into anything. I want to take my time."

Earlier this year, Rihanna hinted she was pondering a fashion line, saying,

"There might be a clothing line on the horizon, maybe underwear."

The star has also previously teamed up with retail chain H&M to design a range of casualwear as part of the Fashion Against Aids campaign.

I know it's already been debunked, but there is no way Rihanna doesn't have money. She has her hand in everything these days. That has to result in a pretty penny.

Rihanna was spotted in the Le Marais area of Paris, shopping for a new pair of glasses. After changing into a fabulous purple sweater (isn't that a great color on her), she leaves her hotel to explore Paris more.

It's no secret that when you start out in the music industry, you become whatever product your record company deems fit... even if it's not exactly who you are.

Rihanna experienced this transformation and even lost the right to choose the color of her lipstick. She played along until the day she chopped all her hair off. A record company exec told her she had to put extensions in her hair, and she wouldn't allow it. It was the first thing she did for herself to reclaim who she once was before fame entered the picture. 

"In the past I had no say in how I was presented. Those decisions were made for me, right down to the colour of my lipstick. I was in Paris and I fancied a change of hairstyle. I had my long locks cut off and came away with this cute bob. Someone from my record company saw me and said, ‘It looks nice but it’s just not you. We’ll have to put extensions in.’ I was completely crushed.

"That’s when I realized things had to change. I make my own decisions now."

Last months reports were circulating (started by Rihanna's former manager) that the Umbrella singer was closing in on broke because she wasn't handling her spending well.  Rihanna says that's all untrue.  In a recent interview she opened up on money, the paparazzi and relationships.

On business:

"You can't get away from the business side. It takes over. The minute you get into the business side, it becomes you. I get business reports all the time because it's my money. And I stay on top by living it, breathing it, thinking about it every day and every night."

On being overworked:

When I first started, I didn't know what to expect and I went with the flow. I got burned out, but I thought that's how it was supposed to be. Even Jay looked at my schedule and thought it was crazy. I don't ever want to hate what I do. I don't ever want to say, 'Ugh! Another day of this!' I just want a gentler pace that allows me to recuperate and still love and enjoy it."

On paparazzi:

"Barbados should be off-limits. It should be a getaway for me. My family lives there. It's sacred. But these people follow me all the way to my home, all the way to the beach. It sucks.

I spend most of my life in the public eye, but I don't want to do that all the time. I don't always want to be in front of a camera or looking my best. Sometimes, I just want to be me. But that's hard when people wait outside my house and chase me. They follow me, they yell at me, and I can't stop them. So I live my life. As I said, it sucks. But I need to focus on me."

On people who think she has a great body:

*SIGH.  As if these two need another reason to be pitted against each other.  It's bad enough that the media has them constantly competing but now their record labels have done the same thing.  Rihanna is releasing her 8th single, entitled Breakin Dishes, on the same day that Beyonce releases her two new singles If I Were A Boy and Single Ladies. 

Personally, I like both their music so I'll probably get all three songs on iTunes.  What about you?

What do you think?! Rihanna took on Vogue, a Madonna classic. Did she rock it?

I can't even stand it, so much talent and diva power in one room!  Music royalty, Mariah Carey, Rihanna, Beyonce and Nick Cannon were photographed leaving rehearsals for Fashion Rocks at the Rockefeller Center.

I love how in every photo we see of the two of them Nick is always holding Mariah's hand and guiding her.  He looks so in love. :)
