Current Favorites | The (mostly) Skincare Edition

Okay short attention span friends, here is the finale to my Current Favorites. AND, lucky for you, one of my shortest videos yet! (high fives self). I posted my Current Makeup Favorites last week (watch and read it here!) But now here is all the goop skincare wise (mostly) I’ve been slathering onto this body as of late. The video has the scoop, but there’s some sneak peaks and an abbreviated rundown below! I have not used faked tan since I turned myself into a streaked orange mess in grade school (which ultimately resulted in wearing long pants and sleeves in 90 degree weather). Since my wedding was coming up I wanted to add a little bit of color to this strobelight complexion of mine. I found some easy success with St Tropez’s In Shower Tan. A little pricey, but pretty fool proof for the tanning idiot like myself. Hair wise, I’ve been slipping some of Morrocanoil’s famous Hair Treatment on to these tresses of mine. The scent reminds me of walking the Jasmine lined streets …

Current Favorites | The Makeup Edition

It has been a bit (to say the least) since I sat down here and gushed about all the things I’ve been loving as of late. It’s been so long, and I’ve found so many things I want to rave on about, that I thought it better for all of our attention spans to break it up into two parts. Here we have my current Makeup Favorites, or rather, all the shit I’ve been painting onto my face for the last 3 or so months. There’s some sneak (photo) peaks below, but the video has the full scoop! A huge percentage of these guys I actually wore for my Wedding (mainly all the Lancome bits). That Teint Idole is no joke, it might not actually be 24hr wear but it sure got me through at least 10-12 hours of looking photo worthy! They didn’t just grace this face for my nuptials, I’ve been loving them all on the regular as well. The Juicy Shaker for instance has made my purse its’ home this summer. Cocktail inspired lip wear …

Caudalie Vinoperfect Radience Serum

Caudalie, named after a term used in wine tasting, is a luxurious skincare brand out of France you’ve probably seen a million times over by now…. And just like the taste of wine, as I’ve aged, I’ve grown to appreciate more and more. I’ve really enjoyed using the Moisturizing Sorbet and Cleansing Milk in the past, and am a big fan of the Lip Balm. Funny enough I haven’t used the Beauty Elixir which seems to be the most popular and known product of Caudalie. I got a sample of Vinoperfect Radiance Serum* this past fall, used it all up, slapped the full size on my amazon wish list, and Voila! my Fiance got the hint and it was in my hands for Christmas. Caudalie claims that the Vinoperfect Radiance Serum will boost skins radiance, reduce the appearance of dark spots, and promote a more even complexion. The serum is based around Caudalies patented Viniferine. Derived from the sap of grapevines, Viniferine, is supposedly the most effective natural molecule at fighting off dark spots and boosting radiance by lightening …
