Shakira launches own beauty range

Hip-shaking singer Shakira has teamed up with Spanish cosmetics giant Puig to launch her own line of beauty products.

Antonio Puig (pronounced pooge) founded the company - now one of Spain's biggest couture and cosmetic groups - in 1914. Its product portfolio includes Paco Rabanne, Nina Ricci, Carolina Herrera and Payot.


And now it's added Shakira to its ever-growing brand list. The star says of the range: 'I'm very excited to be able to express myself through another creative medium.


'My feeling is that personal care and beauty should be effortless and accessible for everyone.'

Shakira's Boob Power

Some peeps' gravitas can be found in their heads, or even perhaps their legs. For Shakira, it's her jugglies that wield the greatest authority. Or her booby carriers, to be more precise. We recently brought you news of Shakira auctioning off her 2007 Oral Fixation tour wardrobe on eBay's Giving Work website.

Well, the bidding jungle is now well under way, with one suggestible fan shelling out a whooping £1,500 for Shakira's bra. You wouldn't catch us forking out that kinda money for a bosom holder, or even a more tempting item come to that - say, Brad Pitt's underpants?


Anyway, we digress. Shakira, who famously sang the words, "lucky that my breasts are small and humble, so you don't confuse them with mountains", has now discovered her rack ain't so retiring after all. Its money-swilling power says it all. Still, everything goes to a good cause.


The Shakira auction, in aid of her Bare Feet Foundation which aims to build a school in her native Columbia, has so far raised £30,700. It's due to end this Sunday, with guitars among the items still up for bidding.
