Inspired by Pastel Makeup for Spring

April 23, 2013 eyes

Spring has me craving pastels. I love the look of a light feminine face as we welcome the warmer weather. It is also a great time to experiment with lighter versions of bold shades like mint green eyeshadow – surprisingly beautiful! Here are my picks for some of the Easter egg inspired shades: Laura Mercier [...]

Best Bronzers

July 6, 2012 face

Despite my incessant application of SPF this summer, I still have a little color on my face. But that doesn’t mean I don’t need the help of a little bronzer. I am committed to the belief that we can have that golden summer glow without baking unprotected for hours on end in the sun. These [...]

Channeling James Bond, a mirror pops up when the compact is opened. The case is very heavy, yet with some serious glam. My lips have been exceptionally dry [...]

Guerlain ‘Terracotta – Terra Inca’ Khôl Kajal

August 10, 2011 eyes

I love a tight, neat pen liner but sometimes you crave some smudge and ink. And inky eyes are definitely “in” for the fall. So heavy your hand and don’t look back. And might as well do it with a cult favorite. The Khôl Kajal by Guerlain reminds me of a crayon, and I couldn’t [...]

Guerlain Four-Color Eye Shadow Palette

August 9, 2011 eyes

I am somewhat new to Guerlain cosmetics, but so far, they have impressed me completely. I was sold on the new Four-Color Eye Shadow Palette for Fall 2011 because they are seriously mistake-proof, blendable, simple and a mix of finishes. For those who want a finished look with more dimension to their eyes without a [...]
