J'Adore Dior! Lip Glow And Rosy Glow Blush For Summer Sizzle

PINK LIPS + PINK BLUSH equal summer sizzle and look FAB on every skin tone.

Sure, you might have to adjust the pink to fit your unique complexion, but it is a universal shade that flatters every woman's skin, when it comes to makeup.

Dior makes gorgeous makeup, and no, it isn't the cheapest, but if you have the $$$ to splurge, then we think the stuff is splurge-worthy.

We, especially, LOVE the Dior GLOW line, like these two:

Rosy Glow Healthy Glow Awakening Blush in Petal.
.

I know, $44 for a blush compact sounds crazy BUT----it's really pretty + made beautifully. We found it here at Sephora.

Dior Addict Lip Glow in Pink.

Also at Sephora, for $33.

It's a nice, soft, sheer pink with a satin finish.

Ripped Knee Thigh-Baring Jeans Still Hot Trend

For some strange reason, I happen to LIKE the ripped knee, thigh-baring jeans trend.

The look has been around for about 2 years now and is STILL HOT, because supermodel Alessandra Ambrosio was showing off the ripped jeans just 2 days ago as she left the Balmain fashion show in Paris with her daughter Anja.

Take a look. And she's wearing that classic military-syle Balmain blazer ($1,677), this time in Nude.

I think it's a SEXY style, but I know lots of people who hate disheveled, ripped jeans, especially baring the knees and thighs.

Balmain's little darling, Kim Kardashian  was ALREADY sporting this fashion trend back in Spring 2014, and I LOVED it then.

Model Gigi Haddid has also worn the look with a simple white blazer + white trainers.

 

Now, you can make your OWN ripped knee, thigh-baring jeans with a pair of scissors + a little imagination.

And no, the big holes do NOT have to match perfectly.

 And if you can afford to purchase an authentic 6-Button, Double-Breasted Balmain Blazer, then good for you,  and click here.

Let it RIP, ladies!

Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara Really Delivers For All Women

I'm ALWAYS on the hunt for mascara that REALLY defines the lashes.

I got lucky yesterday; my friend Nina who LOVES all makeup---especially mascara, gifted me with an adorable pink tube of lipstick packaged in a cute pink box.

Hmmm. It read in gold lettering:

Better Than SEX.

Yup....That's the name of Too Faced's mascara, and it comes with a unique, wide hour-glass-shaped mascara brush.

Nina promised me AMAZING lashes.....and she was right!

Better Than Sex mascara TRULY delivers for All the ladies:

Longer, thicker, separated lashes.

Take a look at the model wearing it:

A very build-able mascara and one that LENGTHENS beautifully, in the same sense of L'Oreal's Telescopic mascara.

I found a pretty pink tube of Too Faced Better Than Sex here at ULTA ($23).

It's worth the splurge, ladies.

Maine Chaga Products For Collagen-Boosted Complexion And Smoother Skin

Chaga might not sound too pretty, because it's a medicinal mushroom growing on decayed birch trees, but it's been found to be FULL of precious antioxidants, which makes for more beautiful skin when added to skin care formulations.

Wild Chaga found in Maine happens to be one of the more potent varieties out there, so this appears to be the BEST chaga around.

So, I asked my New England friend Rebecca Webster what all the beauty hype was about the chaga mushroom and learned plenty at her company website MyBerryOrganics.com.

The company believes in + sells natural, organic skin care products, teas and supplements. And they've been receiving a lot of BUZZ lately and with good reason.

If we look at the beauty science of the Chaga mushroom without getting too complicated, we find it contains a valuable component known as betulin. When that is converted to betulinic acid, the skin care rewards are there.


That means:  Improved skin tone + clarity with the stimulation of collagen production, making for a younger-looking, smoother complexion and wherever else you apply it to the body.

Who doesn't want more amazing + supple skin?




Rebecca Webster was generous to send me a couple of  her wonderful + exclusive Maine Chaga products:

1. Maine Chaga Age-Defying Face Serum.($38). This quick-drying serum contains 200-plus antioxidants with Melanin, Vitamins + Minerals + Amino Acid Complexes.

2. Maine Chaga Face + Body Cream.($35). This rich yet lightweight cream contains the full Chaga benefits with Green Tea, Chamomile, Cucumber, Shea Butter, Aloe, Jojoba, Coneflower, Grapeseed, Safflower, and Sesame.'

I found the serum + cream work EXCELLENT together. I LOVE the serum on my face + neck. It makes for an effective facial primer, smoothing the complexion and adding a perfect layer for foundation + other makeup with a pore-less look.

The face + body cream is terrific for areas that need extra hydration like on my decollete. I am hoping, this can soften the sun spots I have accumulated over the years. It feels like silk and leaves your body + face feeling ultra-smooth.

And you can be assured that the chaga her company is harvesting and processing is the real deal:

" Our processing facility is registered with the FDA, registration #18195837554.
My Berry Organics/Maine Chaga has been inspected and licensed by the State Of Maine..." 

If you're looking for better skin tone + texture, I would definitely, try these Maine Chaga skin care products.This is nature at its best, These are authentic, healthy face + body formulations that have been carefully prepared.

I've been using both products for almost 3 weeks now, and my finicky skin has responded WITHOUT irritation.

I think you will LOVE Maine Chaga products.
