May Favorites

01. Clarisonic Mia  

If you don't have a Clarisonic, I highly recommend that you go buy one! I never had acne during those awkward teenage years, but I somehow developed an awful case about 2 years ago.  I wanted to die. I tried everything short of wearing a paper bag over my head everyday.  I've been using this Clarisonic for 3 months and my skin has vastly improved. I think with more time my skin will return to normal.

02. Essie in Power Clutch

I just love this color. Every time I try a new nail color I end up going back to my bottle of Power Clutch.  It's edgy without being office-inappropriate and it matches with everything.

03. Femme Couture Lip Luster in Copper Frost

I bought this in the beginning of May for a special occasion.  I don't usually wear lip gloss. In fact, I haven't bought a tube of gloss in over 3 years. Lip glosses are a huge turn off to me because they taste funky, they're sticky and they don't last very long.  To my surprise this one tasted (mildly) of vanilla and there was no sticky feeling.  This color adds a nice sheen to my lips and I've used it so much this month that I've almost gone through half a tube.

04. Mineral Fusion Lengthening Mascara in Graphite

I've been having allergic reactions to drug store mascaras for ages. I honestly thought I was developing allergies, but then I realized that I only clawed at my peepers when I was wearing mascara. Once I realized that I tried a million mascaras from the drug store, all to find that my eyes were itchy beyond belief.  My all time favorite mascara is Giorgio Armani's Eyes to Kill, but it's pricey.  I found this Mineral Fusion Lengthening Mascara at Whole Foods and I decided to give it a try. It's 100% natural and guess what? MY EYES AREN'T ITCHY.  This mascara doesn't do anything extraordinary to my eyelashes like the GA Eyes to Kill, but it's half the price and NO ITCH and no clumping. So I am very happy for now!

05. Live Love Dream fragrance by Aeropostale

I came across Live Love Dream when I stopped in Aero to grab some camis and decided to give it a try.  This perfume is yummy, light, fruity and floral.  It's the perfect scent for Spring/Summer.

06. Yes to Cucumbers Calming Shower Gel

I love the Yes to line of products, which you will soon discover.  I started using their cucumber shower gel end of April/early May and I LOVE it.  It has a light, clean scent and is really gentle on my skin.  This shower gel is a winner.  If you have sensitive skin and/or like to use natural products, definitely check out Yes to!
