For the guys:

GUESS Seductive Homme Blue

Bold, masculine and powerful,Aqua Rush embodies what it means to be a man who lives life to the fullest.  Available at Macy’s department stores and other fine retailers nationwide.

These are all fairly affordable and smell great.  It might sound funny, but my 80-year-old mother-in-law loves the Playboy VIP for Her fragrance because it is light and fresh.  It is really nice!

The Pacifica fragrance is the opposite, but no less lovely.  It is rich and fall-ish.  It will also be great for cold winter nights!

And stand out for me (and on my hubby) is the Nautica Aqua Rush.  The bottle is really cool and so is the scent!

So try a new scent — and enjoy!

Switch Up Your Skin Care Routine With vbeaute, Yves Rocher, SkinCeuticals and Lumene!

Over the past couple of months I have been trying some new (to me) skin care. These products are great for women who need anti-aging benefits, including wrinkle-smoothing and 0il-controling benefits.

vbeaute It Kit

Vbeaute was founded by Julie Macklowe — a former fashion socialite who managed a multi-million dollar hedge fund. Searching for the perfect skincare, scientists introduced Julie to the Swiss botanical stem-cells from the Alpine Rose plant, one of the Longevity Botanicals that have developed near miraculous anti-aging abilities as they’ve adapted over centuries to the harsh conditions such as cold, UV and severe dryness in the High Alps.

“My chemists were able to infuse the original recipe with 21st century bio-chemical power that makes our exclusive vComplex a breakthrough. vComplex allows healing, anti-aging and DNA protecting abilities that track with your skin’s own cellular needs. No matter your age, climate, stress level or lifestyle, v gives your skin exactly what it craves.” The vComplex is a potent Swiss cellular concentrate based on Swiss Alpine Rose Botanical Technology (ARBT), an age-antagonist that provides antioxidant protection in relation to UV damage. Age-altering ingredients. Serious skin treatments. Innovative technology that works on a cellular level. vbeauté helps correct the sins of the past and protect the skin of your future. Prevent premature aging before it has a chance to happen; put time control in your control. V is your victory over time.

The It Kit® ($165 USD) is a customizable skincare system that houses the products you need to give your skin the treatment it deserves. An elegant gunmetal clutch, the It Kit® holds your five skincare essentials, easy to take anywhere, anytime. With a patented design, the It Kit is refillable; perfect on-the-go sizes of your favorite products are available for replenishment.

Includes Undercover Agent® (anti-wrinkle protecting serum), Rub Off™ (Gentle Facial Exfoliator), Evidence Eraser® (Gentle Foaming Cleanser), Buying Time®(Everyday Creme) and Eye Never® (Nourishing Repair Eye Crème). Learn more at www.vbeaute.com.

Yves Rocher Hydra Vegetal Instant Anti-wrinkle Moisturizer

Yves Rocher Hydra Vegetal Instant Anti-wrinkle Moisturizer ($27, $14.85 on sale) —Targeted moisturizing for wrinkle-prone areas! The Instant Anti-Wrinkle Moisturizer provides deep, intense and lasting moisture and instantly smoothes wrinkles upon application

This is for Normal to Combination Skin and the formula was tested under dermatological supervision.  Includes botanical-based ingredients: maple sugar extract, organic agave sap extract, betaine, witch hazel water.

I love the instant smoothness that this gives without being sticky or uncomfortable on the skin, like some other instant wrinkle smoothers. Purchase at www.yvesrocherusa.com.

Lumene Vitamin C+ Dry Skin Comfort Radiance Cocktail

Lumene Vitamin C+ Dry Skin Comfort Radiance Cocktail ($21.99 USD) — Active ingredients from cloudberry brighten the skin, improve moisture balance, and protect against the harmful effects of the environment. Highly conditioning cranberry seed oil combines with cloudberry to help nourish and vitalise even the driest skin.

I shake this up and apply it lightly on my skin at night.  The next morning, my skin is radiant and not at all greasy.  Purchase this at CVS stores, www.drugstore.com.

 

SkinCeuticals Blemish + Age Defense

SkinCeuticals Blemish + Age Defense ($80 USD) Designed specifically for adults, this targeted, oil-free approach to treating adult acne and signs of aging uses a 1st-to-market acid blend combining 2% dioic acid with an alpha- and beta-hydroxy acid formulation designed to prevent acne, minimize hyperpigmentation and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Salicylic acid and LHA combat blemishes; glycolic and citric acids treat fine lines, wrinkles, and roughness; and dioic acid fights acne, reduces excess sebum production and prevents hyperpigmentation that can cause skin to appear prematurely aged. This highly effective, efficient treatment is ideal for acne-prone, aging skin.

NOTE: Proven as effective as the leading prescription drugs, BenzaClin & Tretinoin, in new clinical studies. Available at www.SkinCeuticals.com

Enjoy!

 

 

Temporary Life And Blog Changes

Hi All!

Last Thursday we had a house fire.  Everyone is okay, but our kitchen is destroyed and everything else is smoke damaged.

To my awesome readers, I will be trying to review products that I had and have used.  I don’t know when, but hopefully soon.

And to the wonderful brands that receive products from, I will try to review the products that you sent if I have tried them.

I am obviously going to be dealing with our house cleaning and reconstruction, but I still love beauty products and will be trying to post when I can!

Thanks!

Smize Big With New Fall Eye Products!

Yes, I am watching the new season of America’s Next Top Model, but more importantly, my big brown eyes look fab with my new fall eye products!  My fave’s are:

Eye Majic Instant Eye Shadow ($2.49 for 2 in a box, $$5.75 for 5 $10.95 for 10) and — is the first “hold-and-press” eye shadow applicator that imparts high-pigment colors so anyone can achieve precise, flawless, eyeshadow looks in 10 seconds!

These are very easy to use.  Just press on lid, then take an eye shadow brush to blend it in around the edges.  Fun and really cool!  Currently there are 15 different kits that include matte and pearl colors options. Purchase at www.eyemajic.com.

 

Smashbox Photo Op Eye Shadow Trio

Smashbox Photo Op Eye Shadow Trio ($28 USD) A color-coordinated eye shadow trio. Create beautiful eyes effortlessly with Smashbox’s award-winning eye shadow trios. These perfectly coordinated hues take the guesswork out of choosing what shades to wear together.  Each trio features a base, contour, and highlight shade for mistake-proof application. Plus, three shades in one pot equal a travel-friendly necessity for the girl on the go. Peel back the shade label for easy-to-follow Get-the-Look application tips.

The palette above is called Shutterspeed.  It has been my everyday look for over a week now.  The gray with the beige colors is so pretty!  But if this isn’t the color combo for you, there are 16 to choose from! Purchase at www.smashboxcosmetics.com or www.sephora.com.

Pixi Beauty Shade Quartette

Pixi Beauty Shade Quartette ($22 USD) — A tone-on-tone wheel of coordinated shades for the ultimate natural eye.  Custom mixed formulas from satin to iridescent are super silky and give instant lustre. Suit-all shades transition easily from day to night and blend like a dream. With added coated mineral pigments to reflect the light plus good-for-you nutrients.

This is available in 3 natural palettes — Shades of Nude, Shades of Peach and Shades of Taupe (left to right in photo above).  I have the Shades of Peach which is soft and shimmery on — perfect for the current trend of pale, sheer eyeshadow.  Pare it with a strong eyeliner, lots of mascara and a stronger lip — pretty for fall!   You can purchase at Target stores or www.pixibeauty.com.

Tarte Amazonian Clay Eye & Cheek Palette

Tarte Amazonian Clay Eye & Cheek Palette ($44 USD) — A stylish mirrored clutch featuring eye and cheek essentials formulated with Tarte’s biggest beauty breakthrough: Amazonian clay.  So pretty you’ll want to take it out of your purse for frequent touch-ups, this faux-snakeskin adorned palette contains six Amazonian clay eye shadows that deliver the perfect amount of creamy matte perfection or subtle shimmer.  Also inside are two Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Blushes in one original, bestselling shade and one new shade. Amazonian clay works to nourish lids, reduce surface oil, and improve overall texture for easy application and better wear.

Tarte has some of the best wearing shadows out there.  Highly pigmented and so long-lasting.  The colors in this Palette can be used for day or night — just change up the colors.  The blushes are super pretty as well, but be careful — a little goes a long way!  Available at www.sephora.com.

Smashbox Image Factory Waterproof Shadow Liner

Smashbox Waterproof Shadow Liner ($22 USD) A stay-put waterproof eye shadow and long-wearing liner in one. Give eyes soft definition wherever, whenever with this travel-friendly, mistake-proof shadow liner. The creamy waterproof formula glides on effortlessly for endless possibilities.  Smudge as a liner or blend as a shadow with included smudger for allover, longwearing color. Light-reflecting pearls give high-drama color and shimmer, while emollients create a silky, creamy texture.

I have been using this liner in Metallic Bronze.  It is so versatile and easy.  I apply the liner as a shadow and smudge it all over my lid, then line my upper and lower lids with the same pencil.  So pretty for day or night!  Purchase at www.smashboxcosmetics.com or www.sephora.com.

Face Stockholm Lash Booster

Face Stockholm Lash Booster ($34 USD) — Get noticeably longer, thicker and fuller lashes after only one day of use! This revolutionary, strengthening and lengthening mascara with Booster Complex – a blend of rich vegetable waxes and polymers – nourishes and stimulates the growth of eyelashes.

Use Lash Booster as your everyday mascara for at least 60 consecutive days and get clinically-proven, measurable results:  lashes up to 1.5 mm longer and 15% fuller!

I have been using for only a week.  I have noticed that the mascara lengthens and thickens my lashes, but it has not been long enough to notice lash growth.  If I do in a couple of months, I will let you know!  The good news is that it is not irritating my extremely sensitive eyes (lash growth products usually do!) Purchase at www.facestockholm.com.

Enjoy your beautiful eyes!

I have been using the oil diffuser for about a week.  The first few days, the scent was rather weak, but now I can really smell the Lavender & Juniper Berry in the room that I have it in.  It is a very comforting and homey scent.

The unique, refillable Glade Expressions® Oil diffuser can found at most grocery stores and mass retailers. The stylish Glade Expressions® Fragrance Mist can be found at most grocery stores and mass retailers, as well as in some drug stores.

New Lip Looks for Fall!

I never wear very dark lip products because they tend to travel down my lip and make me look older. But, in the fall I like to go a bit darker than usual with darker pinks, roses and nudes.

The following products are new this season (or just new to me) and are a fabulous and glamorous way to change-up your lip looks!

Laura Mercier Crème Smooth Lip Colour in Antique Pink

Laura Mercier Crème Smooth Lip Colour ($26 USD) Laura introduces a luxurious new lipstick that gives lips the ultimate in colour, texture, and finish. In one smoothing swipe, the crème formula envelops lips in rich colour with a semi-lustrous finish. The cushiony, lightweight texture feels comfortable, while pure Olive Oil and Vitamin E nourish lips. Features an elegant, modern case with a metalized finish.

  • 0.05 oz Lip Wand in Pink Peony, a pink
  • 0.05 oz Lip Wand in Berry Flush, a berry
  • 0.05 oz Lip Wand in Perfect Rose, a rose pink

I love all of the colors, but they are a bit brown-based and I think the Pink Peony is the softest and prettiest shade.  If they feel a bit dry on, use a gloss over it and the color will stay a long time! Purchase at http://www.qvc.com!

Enjoy!
