I’ve blogged before about white eyeliner but I only recently tried my hand (no pun intended) at WHITE NAIL POLISH, inspired by my favorite TIC TAC flavor, Freshmints. At first glance, I kinda felt like I had applied white out on my nails, circa high school when you were bored in class, but after a few minutes I decided that I liked my white nails, especially after adding a little sparkle to my ring finger.

Look into a fun vacation. I’m really into The Grace List, a new take on a private members club for a new generation. The Grace List connects its vetted membership base of “Urban Affluents” through one-of-a-kind trips and destinations, like an annual 65 person, 7-yacht holiday to St. Barths over New Years and trips to F1 Grand Prix and Art Basel and more, in addition to annual houses in Telluride and the Hamptons (with full staff & ‘satellite’ office capabilities so members can work remotely). Done deal. (image via TheGraceList.com)

Green has been, and always will be, my favorite color and when I say I had a childhood obsession with green, I’m not joking around. According to my mother, I ONLY wore the color green (and some shades of teal and blue/greens) for the first four years of my life. I also had a pair of green Nike sneakers that I literally wore until they fell apart. Basically, when I decide I like something, I like REALLY like it…and you’ve gotta respect that quality about anyone.

It’s April favorites time! Here are the products that are really making me smile this month:
Blackheart Beauty skull nail polish: The bottle alone is brilliant.
Jouer Cosmetics Tinted Lip Balm in “Bellini”: I’m loving this glossy lip balm…also, of course, named after one of my favorite cocktails.
Herbal Essences Shine Collection Shampoo: Hi, 1997. This is Jamie…and I miss you.
Narciso Rodriguez For Her perfume: Hands down, my go-to fragrance…and it’s pretty irresistible at that.
LATHER Coconut Foaming Body Scrub: It actually smells and feels like coconut, which I love.
For someone who lives in Los Angeles, I really do NOT spend enough time in the ocean, and yeah, I’m hoping that will change this summer. In the meantime, here are some awesome ocean-inspired beauty products that I adore.
Deborah Lippmann “Mermaid’s Dream” nail polish: I’m pretty much obsessed with this color and plan on wearing it all summer. I’m a sucker for anything mermaid-related. Fact.
Aqualillies for Tarte Amazonian Clay Waterproof Eye and Cheek Palette: I love anything Tarte but this palette definitely takes the cake. It’s a great combo of neutral eye colors, mixed with brights for your cheeks.
SachaJuan Ocean Mist: Summer in a BOTTLE. That’s really all that I have to say.
AHAVA Dead Sea Salt Bath Salt: I still have dreams that one day I might be able to swim in the Dead Sea (thanks for nothing, Birthright! lol) But right now, I’m happy settling for this bath salt product, straight for the ocean I want to swim in.
Kiehl’s Cryste Marine Ultra Riche Lifting and Firming Cream: My oh my, Kiehl’s…clearly I was excited to try this because, get this, the cryste marine flower grows on rock formations aside the Mediterranean Sea and is known for its unique ability to boost cell renewal for a supple skin effect.
Bumble & Bumble Seaweed Shampoo: I love the look and feel of this mild, moisturizing, daily shampoo that has marine extracts that feed roots, adds shine and keeps scalps happy.
Tone Ocean Therapy Deep Sea Extracts & Pearl Extracts Body Wash: This is literally the ocean, only cleaner and more fun to wash with. It’s got pearl extract, sea kelp and vitamin E, all great for the skin…mermaids everywhere are totally jealous.
