everyday essentials
Beauty product junkie? Guilty! I have about 20+ different eye shadows and lip glosses in every single shade imaginable. Needless to say I only use about 2 of them on a regular basis. Let's just say I like having options ;)
Fresh Lip Treatment in Rose-My all time favorite! Simply the best! I am somewhat of a lip balm addict and this one definitely tops the the list. It moisturizes and protects with spf 15. It is a lip balm, not a lip stick or lip gloss It has the slightest rosy tint so if you like having a natural look with a little color this is perfect!
Shu Uemura Eye Lash Curler
Guarantee you will find this in every makeup artists' bag. It gives you the perfect natural curl, unlike other ones i've tried that give more of a crimp.
step 1- curl lashes starting at the base and squeeze
step 2- repeat with a slight tug as you curl from base to the end of lashes
complete with a coat of mascara (see below) and quickly curl again with less pressure so your lashes don't get stuck on the eyelash pads or get clumpy
L'oreal Voluminous Million Lashes Mascara- the tiny bristles get to every lash and separates making this the perfect mascara!
Cheapie but goody! Felt tip eye liner pens are an easy way to draw an exact line especially if you're no expert.
Cover Girl Line Exact liquid eyeliner pen
YSL Touche Eclat- A cult classic! Doesn't really have the consistancy of a true concealer but perfect for under the eyes and outer corners. Instantly wakes you up!
Bronzer is a must! I hate a matte powdery finish. Especially in this cold weather. Just makes you look dehydrated and older than you really are! I prefer a glowy dewy finish. I alternate between the two. Both give a peachy bronzy glow.
Lorac Blush Bronzer Duo in hot and spicy
Lorac Tantalizer Baked Bronzer
My signature scent is Marc Jacob's Daisy. A light mixture of sweet and floral that is fresh and not over powering. Usually i just spritz a tiny bit behind my ears. When it comes to fragrance LESS is more. Especially if you're using other products that contain a scent (ie lotion, hair serum,deodorant)

Natalia Vodianova
Natalia on the cover of Vogue Mexico January 2011. Breathless and amaaaazing! Don't really have to call it a come back because she never left!
As the camera clicks, a true supermodel has the ability to become a chameleon in each photo. Natalia's delicate features are sweet and youthful. Her wide set eyes and porcelain skin is almost doll like. But when the set calls for sexy seductress... she is able to vamp it up and give us her best pout in no time. She may look like a princess, but fierce like a queen.

arm candy
Great things do come in small packages! I've always had such a hard time finding a great little evening bag or day bag that wasn't completely oversized...simply because I can't fit all of my stuff in there! However it may be time to downsize because this season's best bags are pint size. While it may not be practical to carry one of these everyday, on occasion they can be quite the statement maker to any outfit.
