Just got this from the après chic collection. Put it on today paired with the perfect cheek blush and I'm tickled pink. It is gorgeous!!!! I'm an nw25ish....depending on what day of my weekly spray tan I'm in. It is the perfect color for me.....happy happy highlighter:)

Shampoo -Wen by Chaz Dean - Summer Coconut Mango Cleansing Conditioner
rated 3 of 5

I'm on the fence....I think this is a love it or hate it product. I caved and bought the system from and infomercial after watching it countless times on qvc. I got the summer mango coconut and love the smell. It does glide through my hair in the shower and although I didn't think my hair would feel clean because I work out every morning and my hair is all sweaty, it does end up feeling clean. I air dry my hair and it does seem to take 2x longer to dry now, and I can say I can use about half the recommended amount. My hair is stick straight, half way down my back, thin and color treated. I would say it has less flyaways and does feel pretty silky, but I have had the same results with bed head recovery. Overall I like it.....so far (I'm about a week in)

Eye Shadow -MAC - Vex

Love, love .....did I mention love! This color looks amazing over any eyeshadow! It completely transforms and color and always looks great. I love it when I overdo a smokey eye and just a sweep of vex brightens up the whole look. Great as a highlighter too!!! I've used it over club, fig1, even old gold pigment. Happy, happy shadow. A must have:)

Mascara -MAC - Extended Play - Endlessly Black
rated 5 of 5

I usually am not a fan of Mac mascara. The only one I like is false lash by Mac.....like, not love. This one seems to be the hg for me. I have oily lids and long lashes that usually make for a black line on my lids about half way through the day. This does not transfer at all on me and I love the wand! Nordstrom had buy 2 get one free last weekend so I stocked up and now have three!!!! Happy happy mascara:-)

Loose Powders -MAC - Prep + Prime Transparent Finishing Powder

The hg of setting powder. Could not live without! I'm very shiny in my t zone and this keeps me shine free all day. Here is a helpful hint.....when you first open it, only remove half of the black sticker that covers the holes. So you just cut the sticker in half, leaving the other half over the holes. This keeps it from flying all over in the package!

Lip Gloss -MAC - Boy Bait Cremesheen

My all time favorite Mac gloss. Whenever I put on a lipstick I don't love a quick swipe of boy bait and it's perfect. It goes well with all my Mac lipsticks. My favorite is snob with boy bait on top!

Primer/ Corrector -Clarins - Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch

Just tried this last week....turned 40 a few months ago and started noticing under eye wrinkles that were driving me nuts. A little dab under each eye and the lines are almost gone. I have used it with or without concealer and it looks great either way......will repurchase way before I run out!!!

This stuff is magic. I got the shampoo and conditioner. I have thin, long, straight hair that is damaged on the ends from lots of coloring and color changes! A tiny bit and I can comb through my ends without breaking and my hair looks shiny and healthy. Happy, happy hair :-)
