Do you want perfectly dewy looking skin? It doesn't happen overnight, but you can get it! Start off by making sure you're drinking at least 8 glasses of water daily.
Then, make sure you clean your skin really well twice a day - I really love the Soniclear. I have both this and the Clarisonic and they both are great at cleaning your skin. The main difference between the units is that the brush on the Soniclear has antimicrobial properties that prevents bacteria growth. When you factor in the cost of brush head replacement, the Soniclear is going to be cheaper in the long run.
And, for the month of March, through this link only - you can get the Soniclear bundle that includes:
Soniclear with 2 brushes - one for the face and one for the body
Other products that I love include the Shiseido 'White Lucent' Brightening Line - I've been using this line for the last 5 years and I love how gentle and moisturizing it is.
I'm such a sucker for pretty stationery. Pretty cards and papers definitely can brighten someone's day - take a look at some of the gorgeous cards that we've found for you:
Do you have a pair of nude sandals in your closet? If not, you really should consider picking a pair up for this spring/summer. So very versatile - it matches every outfit and elongates your legs. Seriously, who doesn't want longer looking legs?!
So many pairs of nude sandals - here are some places that I like to look/shop:
Happy Monday Lovelies! I hope you all had a wonderful and restful weekend. Here are some fun St. Patrick's Day items for you - my daughter just informed us this weekend that we have to build a leprechaun trap. Thankfully, building these kinds of things is the husband's department. My job is to cook up a wicked corned beef and cabbage dinner. How do you celebrate St. Patrick's Day?
Rompers and jumpsuits are everywhere this season and promise to be a must have for spring and summer. Easily transition from day to night in them by changing from flats to heels and from a satchel to a clutch. Definitely do get yourself one if you haven't already! Which one is your favorite?
Let's face it - being a mom is hard hard work. I have 3 little rambunctious monkeys who I love oh so dearly. Add to the mix - piano lessons, school meetings, room mom for both the older kids, Mommy & Me Gymboree class 3xs a week for the little tyke, and church service projects, you have one exhausted me who is always running on fumes. And I run a company on top of running the household. I am so very thankful that I have an amazing husband who is always happy and ready to help out with anything - from technology for my company to throwing in a load of laundry.
My lifesaver for looking like I got more than 4 hours of sleep? Good concealers for my under eye circles! I've tried plenty and my favorites are the ones that I've profiled above.
The Clinique All About Eyes Concealer is great because not only does it cover dark circles well, it comes in 8 different shades. And at $18, also very affordable.
The Bobbi Brown Tinted Eye Brightener does a great job at concealing dark circles, but it also has a great applicator tip to really get into the tiny areas under your eyes. Love that it comes in 10 shades.
The Yves St. Laurent 'Touche Eclat' Radiant Touch works for more than just the under eye circles. Perfect for the hollow of the chin, the contour of your lips, and the sides of your nose. A little more spendy at $42, but it works well for the rest of your face.
And the final one that I just LOVE - the Cle de Peau Beaute Concealer. It is expensive at $70 - but it is the BEST. I certainly don't use it all the time - only when I'm going out for a work function, a nice dinner out, or for a fancy event. It has won major awards year after year for being one of the best concealers out there. It does hide all imperfection, blends flawlessly, and comes in 6 shades.
I loved redesigning my daughter's room - everything is pink, white, and girly. We love it - next - we're going to have a pretty chandelier installed. Here are some beautiful ones - currently 20% off and the sale ends tomorrow.
