Can you believe that 2017 is right around the corner? I feel like just yesterday we were starting 2016 and I was making resolutions and celebrating the beginning of another fabulous year ahead. So many wonderful things have happened this year and I am so thankful for each of you who make this blog possible. Some days I get home from my full time job and feel like crashing on the couch but on a typical day I get home from work and go straight to my desk for hours to share the fabulous products, outfits, designers, everyday life happenings, travel and fun things going with you!
I have tried a lot of new beauty products this year and wanted to share my top 10 today with you!
1. Creme de La Mer :
This is the absolute best moisturizer I had ever used. I get super dry skin during the winter season and noticed a huge difference in my skin immediately after using. Not only does it work wonders by moisturizing the skin, it also improves firmness and appearance of lines! Creme de La Mer will be on my bathroom counter for the rest of my life.
I first tried this body wash on a trip to Old Edwards Inn a couple of years ago and loved it so much I made it a point to stop by the gift store before leaving the trip to get some big bottles to take home. I have tried other body washes since but always come back to this one! I am in love with all of their fragrances but my current favorite is Pink Pepperpod. I’m literally obsessed, like so obsessed that I would drink it if I wouldn’t blow bubbles all day. Ha! You can try out all of their scents here.
3. Estee Lauder Double Wear Nude Cushion Stick :
This liquid makeup is a new favorite that I just recently discovered. I love that you can touch it on and blend it all in one! This liquid make up lasts all day without having to do any touch ups. Apply it once in the morning and you are good to go.
4. YSL Shocking Mascara :
Literally the best mascara ever! I have tried many mascaras in my lifetime and can honestly say that I would be fine never trying another kind. This mascara exaggerates lashes and adds volume while still looking natural. I LOVE this stuff!!!
5. StriVectin Hair Volume Tri0 :
If you are looking for body and bounce, this is for you! I can’t ever have too much volume and tried this out for the first time this past summer. This trio gives you a thicker and fuller look while leaving your hair smelling fresh and clean.
6. Bed Head Bubble Wand :
I can’t live without this curling iron! I use this daily to give my hair a more natural and wavy look and its only $29!
7. Bobbi Brown Beach :
I love a light, clean scent so when I first came across this one I knew it was perfect for day or night! Bobbi Brown Beach has notes of sand jasmine, sea spray and mandarin and reminds me of a summer day on the sand.
8. Anastasia Dip Brow Pomade :
I have naturally lighter brows and first tried this after getting my makeup done at Sephora one day! This dip brow pomade gives you perfectly defined brows and provides color and structure. It is the first brow product that I have honestly come to love.
I have tried many highlighters in my lifetime and found this one last year. I love that it gives a natural glow while not making your skin look too glittery.
10. St. Tropez Bronzing Mousse :
This stuff is amazing! I didn’t spend much time outdoors this past summer but still got the perfect tan with this bronzing mousse. I love that it does not smell like a self-tanner and looks very natural. I had many people ask me if I had just returned from vacation after using this!
