How adorable is Cargo’s new Safari Kit ($34)? Not only do you get a cute little cosmetics bag that fits perfectly into your purse or carryall, but it’s stocked with five essential products for you to create the perfect beauty look on the road. They are: Mini-Cargo mascara, Eye-Shadow Duo (khaki/gold combo), Mini lip gloss in Serengeti, Coral Beach blush and Khaki Eye Pencil. LOVE!
What: Rimmel Moisture Renew Lip Gloss, $8 at select drug stores.
Why we love it: New from Rimmel London, we’re fans of this new cream lip gloss which is packed with collagen, vitamins A, C & E, hyaluronic elixir and pepties, developed to reduce dryness. The colour is bold and ultra-glossy, yet not sticky. Perfect for your Valentine’s Day pout!
Wondering what was that famous gloss Angelina applied to her pout during the Globes show? It’s Chantecaille Brilliant Gloss in Love ($28). This pretty pink gloss is perfect for a red carpet event…like your wedding day! If you want it, be prepared to wait a wee bit though. Since Angie famously waved that Chantecaille wand on Sunday night, Love is completely out of stock EVERYWHERE. According to the company’s website it will be back in March.
It’s that time of year when the best beauty stuff of the year hits shelves and NARS Holiday is one stellar collection. There are so many gorgeous goodies in the line that are bridal-worthy. Here are my top picks and why I love them. Read the rest of this entry »
Earlier in the summer I got a chance to preview Smashbox’s fall collection and meet their fantastic Pro Lead Makeup Artist Lori Taylor (who later shared some bridal beauty tips with me — so stayed tuned for that). I was really impressed with the collection and couldn’t wait to try every single product they had. After some testing (we got a chance to try everything right there), I’ve narrowed down the items I think are best for your wedding day. Here are my picks:
1. Photo Finish Targeted Pore & Line Primer, $37
If you don’t know anything about Smashbox, chances are you know about their signature primers. This particular primer is great if you’re having a summer celebration or have oily skin. It’s an ultra-concentrated mattifying formula and developed to target the oily t-zone, crow’s feet and around the mouth. You can use it in addition to your standard primer and of course, under your foundation. Read the rest of this entry »

Did you know Juicy Tubes is celebrating its 10th anniversary? It’s hard to think it’s already been that long since the yummy glosses hit the beauty scene. When I bought my first tube it was a splurge for me at the time and I was obsessed. Today I have even more reason to be obsessed as Juicy Tubes has also gotten a makeover, both inside and out.

I am a MAC girl. Always have been and, probably, always will be. Don’t get me wrong, I love all other eyeshadow and eyeliners from other brands, but when it comes to foundations, blushes, concealers, and okay the occasional two to three eyeshadows, MAC’s my go-to beauty shop. Not to mention, they always come out with the cutest limited edition collection items, like that Hello Kitty set a few months back. My only dilemma is that they’re LIMITED. But, anywho, just received this recent release entitled MAC in Lillyland. Read the rest of this entry »
