Beauty Buy: Eyelash Curler


Today I made a trip to Saks... seriously, what 18 year old girl actually goes to Saks? (more down below). Anyways, I was originally going to check out and buy a new Chanel Rouge Coco Shine lipstick (which I totally forgot about) and was browsing through the beautiful colours when the lovely assistant Paige comes to help. She directed me to a red lipstick I was also going to pick up for my mom and subsequently showed me the Chanel lash curler or Recourbe Cils de Chanel, if you will. I have seen this lash curler before and was in dire need of a new one so I thought if you're going to get a new one anyways why not get this one? So I purchased it and so far it is far superior to any other curler I have tried, just like Paige promised. I will report back within a week to corroborate my initial claims.

Back on the subject of Saks, I absolutely love this store and have loved it even since I first walked through the across the grand department store, past all the scary employees on the way to Chanel when I was 13. Anyways, I feel like, if anything, more mature or middle-aged women shop here. Nordstroms is more of a younger vibe but Saks to me is more elegant and pristine in its own way. Not hating on Nordstroms... love that place also. Saks is just a whole lot more intimidating if it's your first time. So question of the week... what was it like for your first time in Saks or a luxury department store or just any department store?

Everyday Makeup Routine

This is my current everyday makeup routine for the past 6 or so months. Enjoy!



Everyday Makeup Routine


This routine is simple and easy. I start out by moisturizing my dry skin and lips with simple Chapstick and Yes to Carrots moisturizer. I then swipe on some Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua (I'm B30) and conceal any standout spots with my trusty Kat Von D tattoo concealer (which works like a dream at concealing). Next, I move to my eyes and fill in with Maybelline Master Shape Brow pencil in light brown and work Diorshow mascara in Chesnut (swear by it!) through my lashes. Lastly, I powder some Nars Orgasm blusher on my cheeks and add Chanel Rouge Coco Shine in 54 Boy to my lips for a light and moisturizing finish. And voila!
