Charlotte Tilbury The Dolce Vita Luxury Palette

Saturday, December 31, 2016





Good morning!  Today I wanted to show you something I picked up recently while out shopping with a friend- The Dolce Vita Luxury Palette by Charlotte Tilbury. My inner magpie was immediately drawn to the bronzey, sparkly shade and I thought it would make a lovely look for New Year's Eve.

Makeup Travel Bag - Winter Edition

Merry Christmas! Happy Hanukkah! (belated) Happy Winter Solstice!

I hope that if you're celebrating, you're surrounded by the love of family and friends! I myself have kicked off a three week long vacation, city hopping around. I thought I'd show you some of the stuff that I packed since the last time I showed you what was going into my travel bag, I was headed somewhere tropical. This time around, we're headed for colder climates  so I have very different skincare and makeup needs.

 I've been blogging for so long (7th bloggaversary crept past me last month, how crazy is that) that a clear pattern of my shopping habits has emerged. Every year without fail, I go through an indie eye shadow phase, I vow to start (and subsequently abandon) a serum with Vitamin C, and I buy some handcrafted brushes. I'm a little ahead of schedule this year, having already splurged a bit on brushes well before the new year.
