Since space was tight for last week's column, here are more of Health magazine's eighth annual Healthy Beauty Awards winners, with the magazine's comments.

• Mascara: Ramy Triumph Mascara ($15; www.ramybeauty
therapy.com). Rather than add another coat to lashes at the end of the day, try this clear, water-based formula designed to thicken, lengthen, hydrate and declump tired lashes.
• Shampoo: Garnier Fructis Body & Volume Fortifying Shampoo ($3.99; drugstores, mass merchandisers). Fructose and glucose coat hair shafts for more volume, while vitamins B-3 and B-6 strengthen strands and lock in moisture.
• Conditioner: Burt's Bees Grapefruit & Sugar Beet Conditioner ($7.99; drugstores). You'll be able to run a comb through even the kinkiest of tresses after using this lightweight conditioner. Essential oils including lemon, lime and tangerine are to thank for the unmistakable shine that looks glossy but not greasy.
• Styling product: Pureology Dryshine Styler ($20; www.pure
ology.com, check for local stores). This gold-flecked pomade has heliogenol, an ultraviolet-protecting sunflower-seed extract that prevents color-treated hair from fading in sunlight.
• Body lotion: Vaseline Intensive Care Renewal Age Redefining Body Lotion ($3.99; drugstores, mass merchandisers). This daily body lotion has a potent mix of anti-aging ingredients — collagen, proretinol, UV protection and alpha hydroxyl acids — that have been proven to fight age spots, wrinkles, dryness and dullness.
• Moisturizer: Patricia Wexler MD Dermatology Universal Anti-Aging Moisturizer SPF 30 ($39.50; www.bathandbodyworks.com). There's no need for three separate products; this rich facial cream packs sunscreen moisturizer and anti-aging ingredients.
• Lip cream: Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Plump Perfect Lip Moisture Cream SPF 30 ($27.50; www.elizabetharden.com, department stores). Smooth this primer over clean lips (be sure to include the skin around your mouth), and you get anti-aging benefits, sun protection and a plumper pout.
• Eye cream: Prescriptives Intense Rebuilding Eye Cream ($65; www.prescriptives.com, department stores). Pat this cream on clean skin twice a day, and after a month, the skin around the eye will look plumped and smoother.
• Sunscreen: Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry Touch Sunblock SPF 55 ($9.49; drugstores). Micronized silica powder absorbs excess sunscreen oil, so it dries almost instantly.
• Foot cream: Feet by OPI Double Coverage ($12.95; www.opi.com). Shea butter and silicone create a silky layer without feeling tacky, while peppermint protects against odor.
• Hand product: Carol's Daughter Lemon Ginger Mint Manicure in a Jar ($10; www.carolsdaugh
ter.com). The natural butters and oils in this cream are mixed with sea salt to exfoliate dead skin from hands and cuticles while at the same time buffing nails.
Coming soon to a Target near you
Fashion devotees are in for a treat. A Proenza Schouler capsule collection is coming to Target next spring.
The possibility of a Target landing has been the talk of the industry for months, even though designers Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez were quite vocal in their concerns that it might dilute their label.
Perhaps the designing duo, who have developed a cult following since 2003 when they accepted the Perry Ellis Award for new talent from the Council of Fashion Designers Association, decided they couldn't buy any better press than to have their clothes at Target for the masses. Especially since it's a short-lived venture.
The collaboration is part of Target's Go International program. In stores now are Behnaz Sarafpour's designs.
