Valentine’s Day Lipstick!
Happy Valentine’s Day! Hope your day is filled with lots of love, sweet treats, and maybe a perfume bottle or two. 
Still on the hunt for a great gift? Don’t forget my Valentine’s Day Gift Guide! The photo above reminded me of my own lipstick “heart look”. I used Make Up For Ever Rouge Artist Intense lipstick for this fun look. First, I applied 47 all over, and then drew a chunky heart on the inner lip with 9. I used 46 to line the heart shape, to make it stand out. Up close, the heart is obvious, but from a distance this little design made the lips look extra pouty!

Deluxe Travel Brush Collection, Laura Mercier Holiday 2012
One “resolution” I have every year is to travel more often. I think this is perhaps a common desire, as the holiday collections of many cosmetic companies include mini versions of their pro-quality brushes. I do my best to point readers in the direction of one “ultimate” travel-sized makeup brush set each year. My pick for Holiday 2012: the Laura Mercier Deluxe Travel Brush Collection. [Read more...]
Laura Mercier Signature Candle In Fresh Fig

Laure Mercier Signature Candle, Holiday 2012
I’ve never been a big fan of EATING figs, but when this Laura Mercier Signature Candle in “Fresh Fig” is lit in my home, the scent makes me smile all day!
The style of this 7.5 oz, dark brown glass votive is minimalist, and would work with virtually any décor. I’ve perched my sample on a console table in my entryway, to ensure that every guest in my home is greeted with this warm, festive scent. While the candle is unobtrusive in appearance, it is amazingly fragrant, and adds a touch of sweet holiday comfort to many rooms despite the fact that I only own one! [Read more...]
