Fake it til you Bake it

Living in the northeast this winter has been pretty brutal but walking around pale as a ghost is even worse and I can no longer try to fight the winter blues. I finally whipped out my spray tan bottle last night and went to work. My all time favorite spray tan is Fake Bake. It's an aerosol bottle and the color is instant and fast drying, not orangey or streaky. I sprayed it all over my face, neck, and decollate, waited 10 minutes and went to bed. Woke up this morning with a sun-kissed bronzy glow! The real mystery is why I spent the past winter months without my Fake Bake?! 

Suggested Retail $27.99

Lights On!!

Just sampled a new lipgloss that actually has a mirror and LED light as part of its design. My initial reaction when I heard about this new innovation went a little something like this.."umm.. really? Who would actually buy this?" And then I was given one as a gift and I'm loving it! No longer need to whip out my mirror when applying my lipgloss and I'm done trying to maneuver using my blackberry as a light source! This is a very creative and practical idea and the gloss itself is pretty awesome. It's infused with almond oil, jojoba, vitamin E, and lanolin. They even have a plumper formula for those who want fuller lips.

OPI SHATTER

For all those obsessed with OPI Black Shatter and still cannot seem to get their hands on it -- DON'T FREAK OUT! The company is releasing more and almost every nail salon that is trying to stay in business was wise enough to pre-order a collection so they can please all their shatter-obsessed clients.. yes that means you! *Just beware of getting a mani/pedi done at a salon that seems to have used their Black Shatter one too many times.. the effect isn't the same once the polish has been thinned out a lot* Best way to avoid this problem?? Hunt down every beauty supplier you come across until you have your own bottle!


And speaking of Shatter-obsessed..I have some amazing news! OPI will be releasing a Silver Shatter along with the Pirates of Caribbean collection sometime in May!! There will be six bright pastel colors and a silver shatter to go over.. Just when we thought OPI couldn't get any more genius.. way to keep us on our toes ;) One more reason to be excited for spring!
