You guys...July is here!
That means that we are in the thick of the summer AND the heat! I love it!
It also means that the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is literally right around the corner — as in the pre-sale starts in just two days — July 12th! This is not so good for my wallet, but easy for my July makeup wishlist!
If there is one thing that I HATE in the summer, it is a thick, sticky body lotion.
It is hot enough, and I don't want something heavy sitting on my skin, feeling like it is clogging up my pores. Enter the brand new REVOLUTIONARY Body Yogurts from The Body Shop. To say that I am obsessed with the new refreshing gel-creams and the game-changing formula is an understatement.
Summer is not only here, but the temperatures are SOARING for most of the country. We are currently enduring an extended heatwave. I, for one, am not complaining. I really like the hot weather!
When it is extremely hot outside, I always hear stories of people keeping makeup to a minimum. I often wonder why! The right products will keep your makeup in place all day.
This is the year of lipgloss and I am thrilled. NARS is finally on board with a bigger and badder gloss that is so shiny; it has a lacquer effect with a comfortable feel. To say that I am obsessed with the new NARS Full Vinyl Lip Lacquer might be an understatement.
With the summer vacation season in full swing, it's time to start stressing over what makeup to pack for those weekend and week-long getaways. I swear it's the worst part of a vacation.
Urban Decay has done the hard work for us this year by creating the ultimate globe-trotting go-to makeup collection.
I'm talking about the one and only Urban Decay Born to Run Collection and this makeup collection solves all of our vacation packing problems. With an eyeshadow palette, lipstick in new shades, eye pencils and a travel-size setting spray to keep makeup in place for every adventure, get the Born to Run Collection into your carry-on stat.
We hear about fancy skincare ingredients all the time and I am sure you have heard about charcoal in skincare. But just how effective is charcoal for your skin? Well, let's break it down.
Is charcoal the secret to great skin?
There is a new brand that has taken the beauty world by storm and that is FARSÁLI.
If you haven't heard of FARSÁLI or tried one of the cult beauty oils or Jelly Beam Highlighters, you are missing out on some really innovative beauty products. I've tried a few of the products and I can tell you without a doubt that I highly recommend taking a look at this brand.
Just in case you've been living under a rock and haven't heard the most recent MAC Cosmetics news, let me the first to tell you that MAC has launched a collection in honor of the one and only Aaliyah. I also need to tell you quickly that the MAC X Aaliyah Collection is available now so get it while you can.
Aaliyah is an icon who was unstoppable. Her groundbreaking work in R&B music and film continues to inspire to this day. Countless fans continue to celebrate her and the 90's glam through this inspiring collection that truly represents who Aaliyah was.
The MAC X Aaliyah Collection contains an array of products from a must-have Eye Shadow X 9 Palette and Bronzing Powder to Lipglass, Lipstick and Lip Pencil.
L'Oréal Paris is taking us to Paradise this summer and I, for one, am not complaining.
Playing off the success of the brands highly successful Lash Paradise Mascara (1 sells every 5 seconds), L'Oréal Paris is upping the ante with this new lineup of Paradise products.
