Melvita’s New Nectar de Roses
I have to admit that while I consider it a bonus when a product is organic/made with mostly natural ingredients, it’s not something I actively seek out.

Andrea Perma-Lash Individual Lashes: Drugstore Genius
I’m a pro when it comes to putting on false lashes – even though I only do it once in a blue moon (aka for a photo shoot or special event).

Sephora + Pantone Universe Limited Edition Collection
Pantone, the color forecasting and matching firm, has teamed-up with Sephora for a limited edition collection inspired by what Pantone has deemed the color of 2012, Tangerine Tango (“a vibrant orange reminiscent of the radiant shadings of a sunset”). Now orange isn’t my shade when it comes to my face, but the collection extents far … Continue reading “Sephora + Pantone Universe Limited Edition Collection”
