NARS Tinted Moisturizer - Pure Radiant

This product combines my two face makeup priorities: 1) it moisturizes and 2) I barely feel it on my skin. For someone looking for light coverage and an overall even tone, this is a great purchase. The colour match is better than anything else I've used.
I use a pea sized amount of product and get full face coverage. It's pricey but I think it's going to last me well. I have pretty sensitive skin and have found this product comfortable to wear. No break outs or hives! :-)

I'm an avid home manicure gal. I change my polish as soon as it chips and actually really enjoy painting my nails at home. The only part of the process I dread is the drying time. I have tried a variety of top coats (Insta-Dri Anti-Chip Top Coat is my former fave) and have yet to find anything that dries as quickly and as shiny as the Seche Vite polish -- it almost feels like a gel top coat, minus the UV requirement. Great purchase for anyone who enjoys a good home manicure. -
Yves Saint Laurent Glossy Stain

Years after braces corrected my overbite, I still wasn't a huge lipstick fan. I found that typical stains dried my lips out and glosses caught my hair. On a recent trip to NYC to visit my bestie, she gave me this glossy lip stain and I've never worm a product other than Blistex more consistently. The formula remains moist without being tacky and delivers saturated colour that works for day and night. At $36 a pop, it's definitely and investment but I'm seriously considering sticking with it once my hand-me-down runs out! -
KÉRASTASE Resistance Blow-Dry Primer for Damaged Hair

I got a couple samples of this product from my hairdresser 3 haircuts ago. I resisted using it initially because I assumed that the product would be heavy and leave my finer hair weighed down. Boy was I wrong! The product goes on to wet hair prior to blow drying and essentially vanishes apart from noticeable shine and improved texture, post blow dry.
I have't purchased yet (I have a sample hoard!) but I very likely will once I run out! Great find (despite the higher price point).

After bouncing around between drugstore brands and beauty desk buys, I came across BENEFIT's They're Real! Lengthening Mascara thanks to a Sephora birthday bonus. The first thing I noticed was the intensity and depth of formula. I got great length and definition for my lashes without the clumps.
Though it's a little pricier than I'd like, the product lasts me about 3 months and stay smooth and usable until the last lash swipe!
