One Bag & Three Beauty Obsessions

BAG:

Reed Krakoff Gym Bag: Granted, this is probably the fanciest gym bag EVER but I’m in love with it and clearly, wouldn’t actually use it at the gym. 

BEAUTY:

Jouer Everyday Classic Wear Mascara: I’m a big fan of Jouer so obvisouly, this mascara didn’t let me down. It’s my favorite deep, dark black and it doesn’t flake!  Perfection.

Kate Somerville Dermal Quench Liquid Lift Advanced Wrinkle Treatment: Aside from just LOOKING cool, this anti-aging product turned Kate’s popular DermalQuench treatment into an at-home product!  

Suave Keratin Infusion Dry Shampoo: I’m an avid dry shampoo user and I love that this particular dry shampoo is keratin-infused, adding even extra benefits for the hair.

One Bag & Three Beauty Obsessions

 

I haven’t done One Bag & Three Beauty Obsessions in awhile, BUT it’s back.

Bag:

 

Beauty:

  • Narciso Rodriguez for Her: My perfume staple since college, this fragrance is a winner EVERY time.  The men love it. Trust.
  • Kate Somerville Exofilate Body Intensive Exofoliating Treatment: An intensive exfoliating treatment on my face?  Absolutely not.  On my body?  Yes, it’s a different ball game.  I love a good body slough and this stuff does it’s job.
  • Bumble & Bumble Prep: Lately I’ve been all about the prep.  I’ve been using a makeup primer and now, I’m also into the hair styling prep.  Bumble & Bumble’s products are fantastic so I wasn’t surprised when I started using and loving this prep product.

One Bag & Three Beauty Obsessions: Be&D

So, as a reader favorite, I really do need to do more of these.  Here’s my latest One Bag & Three Beauty Obsessions, featuring an amazing leopard bag from Be&D.

BAG:

 

BEAUTY:

  • Stila Eye Shadow in “Kitten”: There’s a reason when something is a cult-favorite classic.  I wear this eye shadow to work, to Target on a Sunday or to a bar on a Saturday night.  It goes on smoothly, doesn’t crease and lasts all night.  I couldn’t be happier with an eye shadow.
  • Redken Time Reset Youth Revitalizer: A woman needs a good deep conditioner in her life.  I’ve tried them all but this one is different…in a good way.  It’s more of a decadent mask that provides a dose of peptides and ceramide for targeted hair follicle repair.  My hair has never been easier to detangle.
  • Clinique Superdefense Age Defense Moisturizer SPF 25: My skin is D-R-Y and with this comes a need for a serious moisturizer.  This moisturizer is serious for sure and I love that it has SPF 25 to protect you from sun damage (aka skin cancer and wrinkles) on top of it’s super moisturizing properties.

One Bag & Three Beauty Obsessions: Moni Moni

Welcome to my second feature of One Bag & Three Beauty Obsessions, the Moni Moni edition.  And away we go…

BAG:

  • Moni Moni Gypsy Bag – This chocolate brown bag makes me want to squeal.  I’m really into the long strap these days and when I recently spotted Emmy Rossum carrying the brown wonder, my thoughts were confirmed.

 

BEAUTY:

  • Philip B Chocolate Milk Body Wash & Bubble Bath – We all know how much I love beauty products that smell like food.  This chocolate-scented body wash (and bubble bath) is a nice treat in the shower and really wakes me up in the AM.  On top of smelling delish, it also boasts good-for-you skin ingredients like cocoa butter and aloe.
  • Prtty Peaushun Skin Tight Body Lotion – As a super fair girl in LA, sometimes I’m a little self conscious about it. I recently tried out this tinted body lotion, created by celebrity makeup artist, Bethany Karlyn.  It’s fab because it has subtle light-reflecting particles that give skin a flattering glow.  As a bonus, special ingredients lift, firm, tighten and diminish the appearance of cellulite, stretch marks and varicose veins.  Score.
  • Fresh Eat Pray Love Collection Eau de parfum – I just recently wrote about my “Eat Pray Love” screening experience and I’m now officially ob-sessed with the Fresh fragrance collection for the movie.  “Eat,” my personal favorite, is Italy in a bottle.  The scent indulges in Italy’s most addictive desserts and wines and boasts notes of bright Italian lemon and basil balanced with creamy textures aimed to smell like cannoli and tiramisu.  And to top it off?  Sparkling prosecco and limoncello…ahhh, I’m brought back to my days of backpacking around Southern Italy.  I can smell the limoncello now.

One Bag & Three Beauty Obsessions

So I’m starting a new feature called, obviously, “One Bag & Three Beauty Obsessions” where I’ll be featuring my purse and beauty favorites.  The first is a special batch that I’m especially obsessed with.  Let me know if you agree!

BAG:

 

BEAUTY:

  • L’Oreal True Match Roller – What’s not to love about a paint roller for your face?  Truth be told, I hate most foundation.  This version makes it easy to get that flawless application and yeah, it is that fun to put on.
  • DuWop Reverse Eyeliner – I complain time and time again about my eyeliner running down my face.  And now I finally found a product that not only prevents running by creating a barrier, but it also helps prevent fine lines and wrinkles by plumping them up.
  • LUSH Mint Julips Lip Scrub – Is it wrong that I keep eating this off of my lips?  I can’t get enough of this chocolate and mint sugar scrub.  Seriously, it’s like a snack.
