Friday Finds: November 30, 2012.

This week, I discovered a few new items. Some are especially great for the holidays, and a few are some that I have wanted to try for quite some time.

1. Maybelline Sequins by Color Show - $3.99
These beautiful sequined nail top coats are perfect to jazz up nails for the holidays. In my book, I could wear sequins any day of the year, so I would wear sequins on my nails (or anywhere else for that matter) any day of the year. The unique transparent suspension gel holds the sequined pigments in their truest form for crisper color and an super glossy shine. The formula is even made to resist chipping, so the look lasts days. Choose from eight sequin-laden shades:

  • Ruby Rhinestone
  • Lavender Sparks
  • Silver Gleam
  • Gold's Night Out
  • Sea-Quins
  • Rose Bling
  • Sapphire Masquerade
  • Cocktail Dress

2. L’Oréal Paris Voluminous Million Lashes Black Diamond Mascara - $8.95
Not only will lashes look bigger and bolder while wearing this limited edition mascara, but eyes will sparkle extra pretty with the silver shimmer that is inside the formula. The effect is subtle, but just enough to draw just a bit of attention to the lashes. It is the perfect holiday effect!

3. Josie Maran Bear Naked Wipes - $12.00
I have really fallen hard for Josie Maran Cosmetics and have never tried these wipes - one of their most popular products. I love the naturally fresh scent and feel of the super soft wipes as they remove every trace of makeup from my face at night.

4. Philosophy Candy Cane™ High–Gloss, High–Flavor Lip Shine - $10.00
Tis' the season for candy canes. I adore the strong peppermint flavor of a candy cane, but can most definitely do without the calories. When I saw this, I knew I had to have it with the hopes that it will curb those cravings while satisfying the need for the peppermint flavor. I am happy to report that it does, and makes my lips super shiny too. I've been applying it on top of my gloss all week.
