With Hollywood Fashion Tape women’s accessories, you’ll always look great while never having your own wardrobe malfunction!

Products We Love

The Original Hollywood Fashion Tape:

36 Strips

Holds Your Clothing In Place!

Hollywood Fashion Tape® is the easy-to-use, clear double-stick, “do everything” apparel and body tape!

Hollywood Fashion Tape’s specially formulated adhesive is gentle on skin, hypoallergenic and leaves no residue on fabrics. The clear tape doesn’t cover up the skin’s natural color and is more discreet and fabric-friendly than safety pins.

How does it work? You get 36 pre-cut, 3-inch disposable strips (3” x ½” actual size) in each box. Each strip of tape contains a removable backing on each side. You simply peel the backing from one side of the tape, press the tape firmly to your skin or fabric, remove the other backing, and apply the item to be secured. It’s as easy as peel, stick and go!

“The stars’ secret” to always looking perfectly put together is finally revealed!

Hollywood Sweater Saver:

Removes unsightly pilling from clothing!

1 Pumice Stone

Nothing says clothing has seen better days like a rash of “pills”—you know, those annoying little fiber balls that seem to grow on sweaters, fleece wear and even blankets, giving the appearance of permanent goose bumps. Your bumpy clothing winds up in the “give to charity” bag well before it’s worthy of cast-off status, and you wind up spending money on new sweaters over and over.

The brilliance of the Hollywood Sweater Saver lies in its simplicity. Lightly skim the palm-size, practically weightless pumice stone across the pill-laden fabric and watch those vexing bumps disappear, revealing in mere moments your like-new sweater, coat or blanket. Compare the Hollywood Sweater Saver with more-expensive, battery-operated pill removers whose blades grab and snag your sweater’s fibers while ineffectually trying to cut off the pills.

Hollywood Goes Commandos:

Panty-free comfort!

5 Garment Protection Shields

Women’s underwear: It’s come a long way, baby. From chastity belts with padlocks to bloomers to above-the-navel granny briefs to bikinis to thongs, our undergarment evolution is moving steadily toward giving us less fabric and more freedom and choice.

Hollywood Fashion Tape has partnered with Jo Bernard of The Commandos Group, Inc., to add Hollywood Goes Commandos — the sexy, healthy, disposable panty alternative — to our fashion roster. Made of doctor-recommended 100 percent unbleached, un-dyed, breathable cotton, these self-adhesive pant patches allow you to “go commando” while retaining the all-important cotton crotch. Hollywood Goes Commandos provides a clean, healthy barrier of protection between you and your jeans, shorts, leggings, workout pants, etc., with nary a thong-related wedgie nor panty line in sight! They come in packages of five, they’re easy to apply and remove, and most importantly, they empower you to dress as you want.

Hollywood Hidden Secrets Bras:

Available in Black or Nude (Size A, B, C, D)

Strapless, Backless Bra

The amazing strapless, backless bra offers stay-in-place fit with underwire support making this bra perfect for daring backless, strapless styles! The light padding offers a bit of a boost and the deep plunge design is ideal for low-cut fashions.

Simply place Hollywood Hidden Secrets cups on your breasts and hold in place. Remove the nearly invisible, self-adhesive, hypo-allergenic sides and press firmly to your clean, dry, lotion-free skin. Store with liners back on the silicone adhesive sides and you’ll be able to reuse your bra up to 10 times!

Hollywood Squares Deodorant Remover:

Deodorant Remover

1 Reusable Foam Sheet

Hollywood Squares will help you win the Battle of the Blotch!

It’s an all-too-familiar problem: You pull that slinky black dress over your head only to discover white deodorant smudges starkly standing out on the dark fabric. No need to despair — Hollywood Squares will help you win this battle of the blotch. Our specially fabricated pink foam square removes that unsightly residue in an instant, and there’s no need to use water. Just rub it briskly over the spot and watch the white spot disappear.

And deodorant mark obliteration is just the beginning. Hollywood Squares gets rid of most make-up powder along your neckline and picks up those pesky pet hairs on your clothes, too. This portable, palm-sized, reusable foam fashion saver fits beautifully in your purse for a quick touch-up anytime.

Hollywood Fashion Tape has EVERYTHING that you need to become Red Carpet Ready!  Don’t get caught with your own wardrobe malfunction!

This time of year it is very imporant to keep your skin moisturized.  Cold weather really dries your skin and can cause breakage that just doesn’t look good.  We’ve put together a list of some Winter Must-Haves to get you through this dry, cold time in your lives. 

Lips

In cold weather, lips have a tendency to dry and “crack”.  It is imporant to keep lips hydrated with lip balms or you can also use a lip shimmer or gloss to add some sparkle. 

Our Favorites:

Burt’s Bees Beeswax Lip Balm 

How it Works

Give your lips the soothing feeling they deserve. This natural lip balm is loaded with coconut and sunflower oils, rich in vitamins and essential fatty acids, to nourish, condition and soften lips. Beeswax seals in hydration. We’ve even added peppermint oil for a refreshing tingle.

How to Use It

Apply balm liberally to your lips as often as needed, particularly in dry, cold or windy conditions.

Featured Ingredient

Beeswax — A natural wax made by bees in the cell walls of honeycombs, this substance is a natural emulsifier used in cosmetics.

Hands

Just like lips, hands tend to get extremely dry and crack during the winter months.  For extremely dry hands, we recommend the Borghese Spa Mani Restoring Gloves.  For your normal dry hands, we recommend hand lotions.
