Giorgio Armani Orient Excess Clutch & Palette
I’m a little hesitant to take a step back into 2014, but this lovely Giorgio Armani Orient Excess Clutch & Palette from their last Holiday collection only arrived the weekend before Christmas, and I didn’t have time to review it. Sometimes life takes over, and you just need to let go and go with the flow. […]
My Picks from the Burberry Winter Glow Collection for Holiday 2014
It is just 2 more days til Christmas! Are you back with your family and preparing for the big feast? The lil bub fell sick again last week, and between sharing some soup with him and my own marathon bout of the flu, I’m down as well. Oh well, it can only get better! And […]
Tralalaa… this Christmas Manicure of Mine!
I’ve been counting down to the day I could pop into my nail salon and get a set of gel manicure done. Just so I can stop worrying about chips or touching up my manicure every single evening (because that’s how rough I am with my nails!). But having gel nails meant no more swatching […]
Doll or Frost Up with The Body Shop Holiday 2014 Makeup Collection!
I’m not going to lie about it, the last time I touched any makeup items from The Body Shop was decades ago (yes I am that old!) when I was in high school. I mean no self-respecting grown woman confesses to using The Body Shop makeup, right? WRONG!! If you’ve been dabbling in high end […]
Shiseido Sparkling Party Palette for Holiday 2014
I can’t believe it is the final weekend before Christmas! Have you gotten your party outfit and makeup all planned? If you are still casting around for ideas, do take a look at Shiseido’s Sparkling Party Palette. Very few palettes out there are truly all-in-one (most lack either a cheek or lip color), but this […]
Cle de Peau Beaute Celeste Collection for Holiday 2014
I know I’m running very close to Christmas, and this may not even arrive in time for you to do your holiday shopping… but hey, some things are better late than never. And who says all the holiday sets are meant only as gifts? I love hoarding all the limited editions even though I may […]
Shiseido Maquillage Snow Beauty for Holiday 2014
Shiseido traditionally releases a special limited edition face powder every year for the Holiday season under its Maquillage line, and this year is extra special. The Maquillage Snow Beauty face powder is not only a setting powder, it has skincare properties as well! And the last time Shiseido introduced a skincare powder 5 years ago, it was […]
This Beauty Addiction of Mine…Tokyo Jazz for Holiday 2014
It has been a year since I last dabbled with some Addiction makeup, and though I loved both Departure and Romantic Mind when I first received them, looking back now I think I may have been more in love with the novelty of them. There have been so many excellent eyeshadow reformulations this year that […]
NARS Algonquin Nail Polish for Holiday 2014
Just as I’m missing a good purple polish for this holiday 2014, NARS turned out something quite beautiful and unexpected. NARS Algonquin Nail Polish is part of the Laced With Edge Holiday 2014 Collection. It is a cool silvery lilac with multi-hued shimmers. I see pink, purple, blue, green…… As a result of the silvery […]
SUQQU Christmas 2014 Kit B featuring Ex-23 Tsukianzu
Suqqu really surprised me this year… it is not often that we find a beauty company turning out something new every season. I’m not just talking about new color palettes, but actual new products and formulas. Last Summer we saw that ethereal semi-transparent shimmer coat in Ex-20 Natsubotan; last Fall was the double whammy of […]
