Things I Love – #5
Sephora Beauty Insider: if you’re a beauty product and make-up junky like me, consider joining the free rewards program at Sephora. Once you accumulate enough points you will be able to select free items and eventually qualify for free two-day shipping. 
Lacôme Bi-Facil Double-Action Eye Makeup Remover: gently removes even waterproof eye make-up 
Murad AHA / BHA Exfoliating Cleanser: this cleanser is nice during the winter because it helps to remove dead, flaky skin If your Mom didn’t tell you, I will – NEVER go to bed with make-up on, your skin recovers during the night and it can’t regenerate with dirt, oils and make-up clogging your pores. Your skin will appear dull and prematurely age if you don’t remove your make-up before going to bed. If you don’t believe me, read 6 Awful Things That Happen When You Sleep in Your Make-up.
Garnier Micellar Water: if you are too tired to wash your face, remove your eye make-up then wet multiple cotton pads with micellar water and wipe your face and neck until the last cotton pad is clean 
IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Cream: great for mornings since it smooths, brightens and depuffs 
Smashbox Iconic Photo Finish Foundation Primer: fine lines magically disappear and it creates a smooth base for make up to glide over 
Laura Mercier Eye Basic: a great eye primer, I’ve been known to just wear this without any eye shadow 
Yves Saint Laurent Touche Éclat Radiance Perfecting Pen: apply this under eyes, on sides of nostrils and center of chin to brighten your face 
Beauty blender: make this damp and use it to blend in eye primer, concealer, foundation, etc. 
Fresh Sugar Advanced Therapy Lip Treatment: this is very moisturizing, I apply it multiple times throughout the day and before I go to bed

Things I Love – #1
Neocutis Journee with SPF 30 – my tinted moisturizer for day. 
Crème de la Mer for night – it is expensive but if your skin is dry, there’s nothing like it. 
Nutrafol for women – this product has helped thicken my fine hair. Even though the recommended dosage is four capsules / day, I only take one capsule / day. It will take 3 – 4 months before you notice a difference. Side benefit, my nails are super strong and grow really fast.
Laura Mercier almond coconut milk soufflé body crème – this scent makes me smile. I get compliments regularly when I use this body lotion.
Lucia candles – I discovered these at a vineyard in Napa. The scents are very subtle, so consider using them in a small area like a powder room. I bought all three of these scents.
Gray Malin photos – I own both of these and I’m always changing my mind about which one I want to buy next.
