I hope you all have a most awesome and safe New Years celebration. I myself am off to a Kundalini** Yoga Celebration this year, something different for sure, but I’m still hoping to wear my glitter blazer anyway! Also, thank you so much for following and reading my blog in 2012, its been an amazing experience, cheers to a new year and new posts!

See you in 2013!

** Hari NYC, is not where I will be doing Kundalini this year, but Hari is my most favorite Kundalini teacher ever and she is the most wonderful and sweetest person too. If you are in NYC don’t miss the opportunity to go to one of her classes, really trust me, your life will be changed.

dabu2

Dabu Nail Hardener $6.91

I found out about Dabu a long time ago. Nevertheless, this top coat blows all other top coats out of the water. While I can’t say much on shine (all top coats loose shine within a day), what this one does, that blows all others away, is really keep your polish chip free for days. FOR DAYS!  Continue reading →

malin+goetz

Malin + Goetz Lip Moisturizer $12.00

burts bees

Burt’s Bees Tinted Lip Balm $7.00 in Rose, Tiger Lily and  Hibiscus

I love a good cheap thrill, and these are rather awesome. I hate the original Burt’s Bees lip balm. When people love it, I just know they need to have their eyes open to other greater lip balms that are out there.  I think the Burt’s Bees original is overly waxy and for me it leaves white ring around my mouth if I am not careful. So when I picked up these guys, I was hesitant. Continue reading →

Dr. Alkaitis Organic Nourishing Treatment Oil $79.95

You know when you have a blemish, and you try to kill it via popping, squeezing, masks, drying spot treatment etc., and then your left with a whopping dry spot on your face. Flaky and weird and 100% not a surface suitable for concealer. Continue reading →
