MY thoughts

When it comes to your skin there  are so many brands out on the market that it's hard to choose one or even be able to try 5 out of hundreds of them. When a friend of mine recommended Laura Mercier Mineral Powder (compact & loose available) several years back when the mineral make up boom happened, I thought to myself why not give it a shot. I was using Lancome at the time which I loved and used for over 10 years. I purchased the Laura Mercier and have been madly in love with it since! Not only is it mineral and doesn't clog your pores but it also lasts for 3-4 months longer than regular powders, which in the long run also saves you money. This particular compact is about 35$ which in my opinion is very affordable and long lasting. The coverage is incredible and the feel is very light. If anything out of all my make up that I use this is definitely my favorite item. Below are a few images of the compact in case you decide to go out and try it :)

 I just found out about this today and thought it was such a neat idea! Neiman Marcus and Target are collaborating with 24 CFDA Designers some of which include DVF, Marc Jacobs, Rodarte, Robert Rodriquez, Altuzarra, Tory Burch, Proenza Schouler, Marchesa, Oscar Del Renta, Brian Atwood and several others to bring together a 50 piece collections of clothes, accessories, home goods and more!  This will launch at all Target and Neiman Marcus stores on December 1st as well as online. Here are some of the items that will be featured in this Holiday collection.  Brian Atwood Gloves Brian Atwood sunglasses Jason Wu Marchesa Girl's Dress Marc Jacobs Clutch Marches Girl'd Dress Oscar Del Renta leash and collar Robert Rodriguez Dress Altuzarra How amazing are the little girl's dresses by Marchesa!!!! love!
