I love a drugstore steal as much as the next as the next gal. Especially when it frees up money for more important things…like shoes. So without further ado here are the drugstore beauty finds you must have this summer
Whether it’s a first or last day, summer is the best time for having a proper date night. You want to look both effortless and chic without constantly thinking your hair is in frizz-mode and your makeup is melting off
I love a good trend as much as the next gal, but after a certain age I have found they don’t all like me. Therefore, I say you need to be comfortable in your own skin and know what works on you and what does not. Trust me there have been more than a few times I almost left the house wearing something I was not 100% confident in, so I took it off and have never regretted it. Some friends pointed out trends like the return of Dolphin shorts (the ones Chrissie wore on Three Is Company in the 70’s), over 100 coats of nail polish so your nails appear to have multi-colored snails on them (Google it, you’ll vomit) and overalls (which I maintain only look good on the under 10 set) – but I have not personally seen these too much. These following trends I would never even consider. Neither should you.
When I received an email about new customized skincare inspired by Kiehl’s Since 1851 heritage, I had to check it out for myself. Kiehl’s has been providing solutions to unique skincare needs since 1851! Now they are offering their 165 years of expertise to create in-store custom-blended formulas in the original New York City apothecary complete with one-on-one skin consultations. Apothecary Preparations pays homage to the days when Kiehl’s was still an apothecary and its founding family created tailor-made skin and hair remedies for customers using high concentrations of effective natural ingredients blended with pharmaceutical actives.
I’m a huge fan of baby wipes. Even though my boys are no longer babies, I still keep them handy because I can no longer live without them. However, do I use them on my face? Um, no. Now there are makeup remover wipes which I am obsessed with. Why? Well I used to just wash my face and use an eye makeup remover, but the first time I tried one of these wipes I was amazed at all the makeup that come off (even eye makeup and lipstick). Was I just washing the makeup into my skin? Probably. I feel this important first step makes my skin much cleaner before I wash it and use my skincare products before bed.
