New Budget Beauty Favorites

May 15, 2013 bath and body

Flower Lash Knockout Volumizing Mascara in Brown has been my daytime mascara pick for the last couple of weeks. I am liking the softer look of brown, but still with some pretty serious fullness. The formula contains Red Seaweed to strengthen and protect lashes. Enriched with Vitamins C & E for antioxidant protection. And [...]

Marvelous Moxie From bareMinerals

May 14, 2013 lips

I’m not really a lipstick girl. My lips are usually so dehydrated that the thicker formulas look flaky, so I opt for a nourishing gloss. But when one of my favorites, bareMinerals, came out with a lipstick that promised to be like “butter”, I was keen to give it a whirl. Marvelous Moxie Lipstick [...]

The love affair with Net-a-Porter’s new beauty department continues. They have continued to add brands that are unique and luxe, curating a collection that is distinctive and irresistible.

NEW: Hourglass N° 28 Lip Treatment Oil

May 3, 2013 lips

Oil is no longer a dirty little word. We use it after showers, to cleanse skin and to hydrate. Oil’s properties make it particularly well suited to the delicate lip area. So no wonder I am loving the Hourglass N° 28 Lip Treatment Oil so much. Like its big sister No. 28 Primer Serum, the [...]

Secret Agent Beauty – Kiss-Kiss Rendezvous Agent in Golden Spy

April 23, 2013 lips

What can I say? I love shiny things. Especially when it comes in the form of a lip gloss really unlike anything I have ever seen. This Secret Agent gloss available at Ron Robinson has golden flakes suspended in a clear gloss. While the gold isn’t really visible on lips, it does add a dimensional [...]

NARS Satin Lip Pencil

March 14, 2013 lips

Remember this post about NARS Lip Pencils? I was distinguishing the Gloss and Matte Velvet Lip Pencils, which I both adore. But after this dry winter, my lips didn’t quite perform as well with thicker, drier formulas. I have been riding this trend of luscious, creamy lipsticks that are full of pigment like these and [...]

mark. Make It Rich Lip Color Crayon

March 6, 2013 lips

True confession here: I would much rather wear a neutral lip gloss than a bold lip any day. That being said, in the interest of blogging and all, I am constantly trying out the latest and greatest lip products with a pop of color. (And don’t put it past me to rock a bright pink [...]
