Gift Guide: Beauty Treats


I think that beauty items can be a really great gift.  Everyone loves something new and it's also a gift that is a little bit of an indulgence so everyone doesn't always buy fun cosmetics for themselves.  The first thing I would do is get an annual membership to Birchbox.  It's a $100 fee or $10 a month (for women, men are $20 a month) and the recipient receives a package every month with sample size items and something full size items to try.  It's soo much fun!  I have it and love it.  After you receive the cool items you can go to the site and get a discount on the item you fall in love with.  It's GENIUS!  

If $100 is not in your budget.  Or, you don't think your friend/family member will like samples every month.  Here are a few fun options to consider in the beauty department.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE all things Josie Maran!  This is ONLY $28 and the bag is just too cute with the Moroccan theme!  This would be great with a Moroccan style mirror and a Moroccan theme book.  You see I like the theme gifts:)

I want to try this soo bad!  I love anything that fills in the eyebrow easily.

Anything with the signature print/logo for Henri Bendel is tres' chic.

Lovely lipgloss works for anyone. 

I've been wanting this color so bad lately!

Color Blunder




Do you ever wonder what colors to wear each season? Well, stress no longer...just flip through a magazine and check out what the nail companies like OPI are advertising...my boss made a great point a couple of weeks ago that the ads have all the trendy colors each season...so I did my research and found that she was right...if you aren't a magazine freak like me...just check out the popular colors at the nail salon while you are getting your mani and pedi...
*For fun, go to OPI and literally try-on many of the colors available on a virtual hand...it's kind of fun.
