Good morning, everybody. I'm getting ready to pack for this trip to the beach and very excited to leave the city for a few days. I'm going super minimal in that regard and trying to shove everything into a tote. What do you really need for a long weekend at the beach besides a heap of magazines, a great book, and a bathing suit and some cute dresses and sandals?
Well one thing I do know I'm bringing are my most basic makeup items- if you are like me, you've been craving makeup this summer that is less makeup like and more natural. Summer is not the season to load on the layers when it comes to your face, and I have to say- the new line from the facial gods over at Perricone MD is simply some of the best stuff I've ever tried.
I am massively in love with their "no blush" blush in warmy rosy pink, which, when dabbed on, creates a lovely flush that works with your natural pigment and coloring for a just pinched appeal. Also HIGH on my list of bests is their "no mascara" mascara- it's more lengthening than thickening but provides just the right amount of darkness to enhance your Lord given fluttery bits. I'm obsessed,and apparently it's a great conditioner and strengthener so this one is a must get because neuropeptides are your pals. I've yet to try the foundation or lipstick, but needless to say, I'm sure those are perfect as well. It's all avail exclusively at Sephora, and it's a fabulous and exciting new line.
And when it comes to lipstick, give Make Up Forever's Rouge Artist Natural a go. I love a more natural lipstick and find N9 in Copper Pink to be just perfect when it comes to a slightly rosy lip that is not too "lipsticky". f you are a Nars Dolce Vita fan like I am, you will love this. You're welcome. Oh, did I mention it smells like Dr. Pepper? Love it. Super Lip Smackers vibes.
And that's what's up my pre-beach product lovin' for the day. Yours, in stocking up. XO
