For the Makeup Loving Mom!

When I give my Mother-in-Law gifts sets of Makeup, her daughters fight her for every single item. "You won't use that, Mom", or "That color is not you!" is what I hear from them arguing for at least an hour after she opens it. It is so cute, and she always wins, keeping it all. I never fail when it comes to giving her makeup, and  if your Mom loves makeup, you won't go wrong with any of these picks.


Bring on the Caribbean Heat!

It is so nice and sunny and warm here in New England, that I thought it was about time to break out this new beauty from LORAC. 

lorac_carribean_heat.jpgThis Caribbean Heat Bronzer Palette has three complimentary shades in it to give me the most beautiful, bronzy glow. I just swirl the great little bronzing brush that came with it, all over the powder, and apply. I then used just a bit of the lightest peachy/pink and put that up higher on my cheekbones, over my chin, nose, forehead, and on my brow bone. It is a simple, but beautiful bronzed look.

This palette is just onto shelves now at Beauty.com or Sephora for $28.00. 

Bring on the HEAT!
