BURBERRY KISSES

burberry-kisses-2resized

I am always on the prowl for the next best lipstick, and I’m already obsessed with the new Burberry Kisses. So pucker-up worthy! The Brit label never ceases to amaze me, especially in the beauty department. The collection of 28 shades is so effortless, easy, and totally kissable. Here, I’m wearing my 2 new favorite shades. Nude Pink No.05, for it’s natural, fresh look. So chic against the light grays, and whites of my wardrobe (hence this stunning fluffy Burberry coat!)  And you know how I love a good deep red! Oxblood No.97 is a must-have. It’s a deep red shade with a purple undertone that flatters literally every skin color. It’s the fact that they’re made to have buildable color that has drawn me to this collection. I’ve discovered that I can just lightly dab on the color for a stained lip look. The second swipe gives me a richer shade, and the last swipe gives full-on bold, LET’S PARTY color. It really does feel like second skin, and it’s all about lightweight layering. The lighter my makeup is, the better I feel.

Burberry Kisses lipstick in: Military Red No.109. Nude Pink No.05, Oxblood No.97, and Rose Blush No.89

MY SKIN FORMULA

nordstrom-beauty-1resized

I’m all about experimenting with new beauty balms, and day creams. Now, I’ve kicked it up a notch with face OIL. Something I never thought I’d put on my skin. When it works, I stick with it. My makeup artists on set are always throwing a new product in my face: “USE THIS.” Immediately, I’m typing it down in my cell phone, looking it up on Shopstyle, ready to hit BUY NOW. After all of these years of modeling, I’ve narrowed down what it is that actually works. A lot of our skin is too sensitive for acne creams (hello dry patches, and yuckiness!) so I say, MOISTURIZE and let your skin be. These luxury beauty items make my face feel like a baby’s bottom. Soft, moisturized, and ready for whatever life throws my way! Ice, wind, snow, and sun…stop wreaking havoc! The Sunday Riley cellular face oil all you need to seep into your skin just before bedtime. The Estee Lauder DayWear moisturizer with SPF 15 is just what I like to use throughout the day whenever I need that extra sun protection, and moisture surge. Sunday Riley breathable tinted primer keeps everything looking in tip-top shape, masking and soothing the redness you can get from the cold. Trust me, less is definitely more so you don’t cause irritation. So I like to stick with: face oil, cream, and primer.

Take a peek at what’s constantly on rotation inside my cabinet. All of which you can get at Nordstrom!

EVENING FAVORITES:

THE EYES AND LIPS

makeup-musthaves-mainresized

I am such a beauty junkie. I just got back to New York City, and realized I had a giant tote bag of makeup I’ve collected this year. So many unopened packages and newly released products from my favorite brands I work with. That perfect, sparkling gold makeup palettes…a new shade for a new season. Those tubes of lipsticks in every single shade of red and pink. Those serums, creams, and sleeping masks promising a younger, more beautiful complexion. Believe me, I’ve tried it all. From getting my eyes jabbed at on set with the makeup artist…to taking those tips to my bathroom at home. I did learn one thing: less is certainly more. Especially for us girls on the go. So what do I carry if I’m pulling an all-nighter? I like to focus on the simple things. The eyes and the lips. But it always starts with perfect skin:

-Sunday Riley Juno serum and Good Genes treatment. These little magical potions are so worth every penny.

-Stila 10 in 1 beauty balm for coverage and sun protection. I normally use this under CoverGirl’s Aquafresh (I’ve used it ever since grade school. And what doesn’t break me out, is what I stick with. It’s the easiest compact ever.)

-Everything DR. JART. Because this Korean doctor know what he’s doing when it comes to skin perfection.

-Tom Ford Lips & Boys. Currently wearing the orange/red RAFAEL. I love how each shade is inspired by one of the boys in his life. This firey color is super fun.

-Stila Major Lash Mascara

-Aerin palette

Lately, I’ve traded in my liquid liner cat-eye look for some subtle shimmer, and a bare face. It totally brings out the color in your eyes, and I think the shimmer looks super fresh and pretty. I use my fingers from the Aerin palette and use the light brown shimmer all over the lid, and spreading out. Using the dark shadow on the outer corners, and on lower lids. It’s a sublte, more sultry way to give a cat-eye look. But most importantly? The lashes. Curl them daily, with a little bit of mascara.

Complete with a pop of lip, and a twist of your messy locks and you can easily go from the work meeting to the dance floor. A quick overnight fix.

Caldrea Garden Party

Caldrea’s Garden Party was a dream world. So incredibly beautiful and luxurious. Each room on top of the Garmercy Park Hotel representing each one of their fresh fragrances. Lavender Pine. Basil Blue Sage. Ginger Polemo. Some of my absolute favorites. Caldrea‘s eco-luxe home and body care items make everyday for me that much more sweet. They use the highest quality plant-based and sustainable ingredients. The Garden Party showcased their newest scent: Pear Blossom Agave! Their lotions always perched perfectly in my bathrooms. The candles constantly burning and glowing late into the night throughout my apartment. Romantic. I am beyond excited to also be using their laundry detergent. Only to make everything in my life makes my heart flutter! I definitely know what my stocking stuffer will be come Christmas.

Now peek into this magical Caldrea wonderland brought to life, complete with a walk through lover’s den. Each set like a dream come true. Crowned with fresh flowers the moment we stepped inside, it immediately got us in the party mode. Who said you couldn’t have a night in heaven?
