"The tagline over at Beauty411, &amp;amp;#8220;Get savvy. Get gorgeous. Get on with your life,&amp;amp;#8221; says a lot about Nancy, the woman behind the everything-you-need-to-know site. She&amp;amp;#8217;s just a no-fuss, straight-talking, product-loving kind of blogger with a keen eye for trends and a lot to say about them. Find out more about her, including her recent obsessions and the one product she never leaves the house without, after the jump.TGBD: So talk to me about your background. How did you decide to start the blog? Nancy: My background is in sales, but I worked as a cosmetics department manager some years ago. I started the blog because many of my friends would ask me what skincare I was using, what would I recommend for them, what was the latest and greatest in the cosmetic world--that I finally decided it was easier to put it all in one place. Once I started blogging, I discovered I really liked it as a creative outlet and it took off from there. I&amp;#x27;ve met so many great people through Beauty411, it&amp;#x27;s amazing. TGBD: How did you come up with your tag line (&amp;quot;Get savvy. Get gorgeous. Get on with your life&amp;quot;)? Nancy: We&amp;#x27;re all so busy these days, myself included. I just don&amp;#x27;t have the time to spend 2 hours looking up product information. I need to (basically) get the scoop, get the goods and get on with it. So my tag line is a variation on that theme. I want my blog to be a place where you can find information on the latest products, how to use them and where to buy them. And maybe discover some products you didn&amp;#x27;t know about in the process. TGBD: What recent product launch have you been the most psyched to see? Nancy: Right now, because of the technology and my love of skincare, I&amp;#x27;m probably most intrigued by the new Lanc&amp;amp;ocirc;me G&amp;amp;eacute;nifique Youth Activating Concentrate. I&amp;#x27;m also anxious to try the new Anew Clinical Derma-Full X3 Facial Filling Serum. Looking forward, I can&amp;#x27;t wait for the new Guerlain G. lipstick, which looks gorgeous and the Chanel Fall Color Collection. TGBD: Our readers recently told us what shades of eyeliner they like to wear. What are your faves? Nancy: I love Bobbi Brown Gel Eyeliner; my absolute favorite shade is Black Mauve Shimmer Ink. Another favorite is Chanel Black Shimmer. I can&amp;#x27;t wear black liquid eyeliner; on me it&amp;#x27;s scary looking and aging. I&amp;#x27;m better off tightlining or for a more dramatic look, doing the &amp;quot;Rihanna reverse eyeliner&amp;quot; on the bottom lash line. I think that using the new Est&amp;amp;eacute;e Lauder Duo-Tone Eye Pencil in Aqua Teal would be a great look for summer. TGBD: What one product you never leave the house without putting on? Nancy: Sunscreen. Right now I&amp;#x27;m using and loving the new La Mer The SPF 30 UV Protecting Fluid. TGBD: What do you do when you want to pamper yourself? A mask? A bubble bath? Book a massage? Nancy: My idea of pampering is a facial. A facial at a destination spa is even better. One of my favorites was a cranberry facial at the Peninsula Hotel in Chicago. TGBD: And finally, what if you could have a lifetime supply of any three products, what would they be? Nancy: Just three? You&amp;#x27;re killing me! My can&amp;#x27;t-live-without products are: Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation; the Chanel Smokey Eye Quad and Kate Somerville ExfoliKate. They&amp;#x27;ve stood up to numerous other products and are still favorites. Thanks, Nancy!
