I’m not usually that particular about my blush (eye makeup, that’s another story). However, recently I was introduced to Yves Saint Laurent Variation Blush and I fell in love with it.

This blush uses a combination of matte and iridescent textures that capture the light, producing gorgeous color. Available at Saks Fifth Avenue for $44, this blush comes in 9 terrific shades, ranging from neutrals and pinks to reds and browns. My personal favorites are “Pink Delight” for daytime and “Cinnamon Rose” for night.

I have this rule of thumb… try out drugstore brands first and see if they work. If they do… I have saved myself a ton of money. If they don’t, then I move on. I actually saw this idea used on a British TV show last year. The family had to decide if the food product was a generic brand or the higher priced item that had a name well recognized. The kids didn’t like the idea at all but were surprised when they couldn’t tell the difference (in some cases). I have noticed the same thing happen with some of my …read more

It’s time for another stroll through Sephora to see what they have that I/We might want. Thank goodness we have access to Sephora on-line.

Today, I have fallen in love with another product from Two Faced. It’s called Glamour Gloss and this company is  rapidly becoming a favorite of mine. To start off, I have already picked two shades for me that will be …read more
