Hot under {$100}: Beauty Gift Guide and Sephora Gift card winner

December 18, 2013

First off, congratulations to…

…Sharon at The Tiny Heart for winning the Sephora gift card!

Thank you for being an Instagram follower! Please e-mail me at [email protected] within 3 days with your email address so I can send you this gift card!

While we are on the subject of beauty, I love to give and receive unique or interesting beauty products. I mostly order and like to share a few staple items but like to try out new collections such as the lovely Marc Jacobs for Sephora line or much talked about products like the Hourglass Immaculate liquid powder foundation (any product that supposedly improves my skin is worth a try!) Palettes are a great idea because they offer a range of colors and starter sets or brushes are always useful for the amateur beauty queen.

Here are my beauty picks any makeup lover would love:

1. Laguna Winter SURF 4FREE nail color trio, Mary Jo Matsumoto, $36

2. Benefit they’re real! mascara, Macy’s, $23

3. Urban Decay Cosmetics Naked 3 Palette, Ulta, $52

4. Stila Collage of Color Lip & Cheek Palette, Sephora, $10

5. Stila Tools Of The Trade 5-Piece Luxe Brush Set, Macy’s, $28 (from $115)

6. Marc Jacobs Beauty Enamored Hi-Shine Nail Lacquer, Sephora, $18

Gift Guide: Fun gifts for the home (and under $50)

Great beauty picks, I would certainly love the Urban Decay and Stila Palettes. How are you doing hun. Whats the weather thee like?

Thank you Sam! I definitely want to try the Urban Decay and Stila palettes as well. I’m doing well. It is freezing in NYC (literally!) Sunday was nice and at least it was above freezing temperatures. But it definitely felt like holidays and even snowed. I’m just not used to the cold anymore!

I’ve been seeing blog posts on that Naked 3 palette and let me tell you it is GORGEOUS! Such soft colors. I think anyone could wear. I’ve had my eye on Naked eyeshadows for awhile. I think I might splurge in the new year for that one.
