Three beauty products you can't live without
In recent years Vampires have been portrayed as funny, think Once Bitten starring Jim Carey; buff - as in Blade's Wesley Snipes and Jessica Biel; even kitschy, a la Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Fast forward to 2009 and the vampire du jour is ... pretty?
Yup, thanks to the overwhelming popularity of The Twilight Saga, the allure of the vampire is spurring everything from scents to cosmetics. And since we're not too cool to be inspired by movie looks we've loved (hello Heathers, Mean Girls and Sex and The City), we've rounded up our favorite Twilight inspired products.
The TwilightBeauty site, launched in conjunction with The Twilight Saga: New Moon, which opens in theatres nationally today, features must haves that are oh-so-wearable for even the day walkers amongst us.
Here's what we love, and why.
