My March Beauty Must-Haves

Every girl wants to look tan and smell good. Well, at least I want to look tan. I recently attended a few beauty events and recieved some of these goodies in my gift bags or as gifts.  For me there is nothing more important than being tan so self tanners are essential in my beauty regimen as well as a good makeup remover(who is tired of their eyelashes falling out when they take their makeup off?), some matching perfume and hand cream, and argan oil for the hair. Here are a few things I have recently been using and I highly reccomend!

1. St. Tropez Tanning Lotion – specifically created to deliver a richer, deeper tan. Infused with aloe vera and long-lasting color—simply smooth it on for an ultra-even tan. The innovative Aromaguard™ fragrance technology eliminates the tell-tale self tan aroma by a minimum of 70%. sephora.com ; $32

2. Estee Lauder Gentle Eye Makeup Remover – This gentle, lightweight formula works quickly and gently to thoroughly remove powder eyeshadow and other eye makeup. neimanmarcus.com ; $20

3. Jergens^® Natural Glow +FIRMING Daily Moisturizer – gradually creates fabulous natural-looking color with a subtle skin-darkening complex. your local drugstore ; $9

4. Josie Maran Argan Oil – although it can be used on your skin to hydrate, I personally use it in my hair to give any split ends I may some oompf! sephora.com ; $48

5. Burberry Brit Perfume – Fresh and playful, the fragrance is a classic, green-oriental blend of lush fruits, sweet nutty essences, and soothing amber, vanilla, and Tonka bean ; sephora.com, $51

6. Burberry Brit Lotion – Burberry Brit body lotion gives a touch of moisture and fragrance for any place that needs to be softened and refreshed ; target.com ; $20

So…whaty do you all reccomend to add to my beauty routine? Always looking for suggestions!

Trend Talk – Ombre

The Ombre Lip.

By now we are all aware that Ombre Hair is IN. How many of us have seen someone with ombre lips? I recently was at an event and spotted someone with ombre lips so of course, I had to ask them “why?” Personally I was not super attracted to the style because I think it makes someone look a little like a clown and I could just see myself walking into work and everyone staring at me. The ombre wearer told me it was the “next trend in the makeup world” but I am just not sure if this one will stick. Maybe I am just not bold enough to give it a try.

I want to know – what do you fashionistas think about Ombre Lips!?!?

What’s In My Bag?

One of my favorite things to do is organize my bag. I know it sounds boring, but it’s something I do often as I change which hangbag I carry at least once a week. The key to your handbag satisfaction is being organized. I suggest putting your things in smaller bags (the bag within the bag) and your makeup in a cosmetic case. My bags within the bag are from Michael Kors, Tory Burch, and Vera Bradley and they are key to being able to know where all of my things are!

Here’s what’s in my bag…So what’s in yours?!
