INDULGENCE IN A JAR

And you thought caviar was an indulgence? Now La Prairie Switzerland, a cosmetics name synonymous with luxury, is reinventing "indulgence" with its Skin Caviar Luxe Cream and Skin Caviar Eye Lift Cream. The skin creams are a concentration of caviar extracts and sea proteins, combined using phytotherapy and bioengineering technologies. The firming treatment provides skin with nutrients to hydrate, nourish and pamper the skin. The Skin Caviar Eye Lift Cream is designed to defeat fine lines, wrinkles, loss of firmness and puffiness around the eyes. The eye cream retails for $275; the face cream starts at $350. Think that's a chunk of change? Check out the 150-milliliter Skin Caviar Luxe Cream that comes inside a collector's edition Swarovski crystal-encrusted jar. It'll be available in November and December for $2,000. The Skin Caviar products are available at Bloomingdale's, Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue stores.

SERVING UP MOISTURE

Dry skin craves moisture, so give it what it demands with Clinique's new Supermoisture Makeup foundation with humectants. It's combined with a creme-gel formula to provide intense hydration and impart a radiant, healthy glow -- an ideal solution for dry- to combination-skinned women. Clinique's manufacturing process gives the foundation a soft, mousse-like consistency and glossy appearance that's akin to soft-serve ice cream. And dry skin will eat it up. Supermoisture Makeup is available in 17 lightweight shades -- for the fairest to the darkest complexions. Retail price is $22.50 for the 30-milliliter tube, available at Clinique counters nationwide.

CLEAR SHINE

Want the shine but don't care for the color? John Frieda has created a product that will make hair shinier and softer without boosting its color.

Luminous Color Shade Clear Shine contains a blend of shine enhancers and lightweight silicones that mend hair to make strands look smoother and shinier. It's priced at $9.99 and can be found at mass retailers nationwide.
