Saturdays At Shop This

 This Saturday we are manifesting spring with the chicest color of chartreuse. After having two very busy weekends in a row, I am ready for a little relaxation. 

Thinking ahead. Just a little number from the Oscar de La Renta Fall '26 trunk show going on at Moda Operandi. It's expensive, but the good news is that you only put 50% down now.

Dreamy and dramatic, these chic chartreuse chandleier earrings by Oscaar De La Renta, are just my style. Yours, too?

This spiral side table is a perfect perch for a pretty plant that is seeking spring's sunlight. Available in six colors.

This retro travel tote is 100% rattan. It makes me think of picnics in the park. Find it at Over The Moon, a wonderful website.

Serena & Lily's Sale is still going on. This chartreuse Beachcomber Cotton Throw was $178 and now is 50% off. Great for the guest room. 

This weekend wrap-up includes some Parisian Garden wrapping paper. It's just so sweet.... as is everything in this Etsy shop. A stylish source for personalized stationery, too. 

 

If you have been busy all winter working out, good for you! Pack the Vanessa Maxi for your Spring Break romantic dinners on the beach.

Pots with personality! Jonathan Adler's Dora Mar Planters will make all of your plants green with envy. Love!

Seeking Sun: Resort Ready

What's In My Makeup Bag?

 

I have always been curious about makeup. All the pretty colors called my name. My makeup muse was Twiggy, and my interest continues. You will notice that the majority of what I use is clean beauty.  Today I share my favorites.

~ Foundation ~

It depends on what look I want to achieve. For everyday at home I can be found wearing.....

Bare Minerals Complexion Rescue
This is really a tinted moisturizer, but it does have coverage. I am surprised what it does for my complexion. It also offers "mineral" SPF.  I use the shade "Natural Pecan." It does offer a natural glow. Very healthy looking on the skin. Find it at....

Ulta   and  Sephora  

UnCoverup Cream Foundation

I absoluely love this product. First of all, it features totally clean, skin loving ingredients. It is hydrating while smoothing fine lines. The coverage is perfect and lightweight (more like a gel than a cream). I wear shade 22.5, which is a cool buff beige.

RMS Beauty

Baked Balance & Glow Foundation

And for a quick easy foundation, Laure Geller's  illuminating  foundation gets the job done. I wouldn't be concerned about the word "illuminating."  The effect is very soft. It's a light to medium coverage that you can build upon. I wear the medium.

Laura Geller

~ Primer & Concealers ~

Wearing a primer has changed everything for my complexion! I have just started using it in the last year. What a difference it makes! I wear.....

      RMS Beauty Radiance Primer 

First of all, it is refillable, which saves you $10 each time you order. I can always count on my makeup staying put without reapplying. It also replaces moisturizer for me, with all of the skin loving ingredients. Totally clean, too!

RMS Beauty

ReFresh Eye Brightener Correcting Tint

My latest obsession. Wow! It is for taking away the dark circles under your eyes (if you have any.) The metal round tip is very cool to the skin. and helps in depuffing the eye area. I love the feeling. And the color that it deposits is almost magical. I use the lightest shade. My undereye definately looks better. After using it. LOVE!

RMS Beauty.  or  Shopbop

Soft Matte Complete Concealer

This product was highly recommended by Allure Beauty, so I tried it. It is fab! This is the concealer that I wear under foundation. Very buildable. I apply it with my fingers.

Nars Cosmetics     Ulta 

Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin Concealer

I found this product before RMS came out with their Eye Brightener. Love the wand , and it is super easy to apply. I only wear this under my eyes and over foundation.

Sephora      Nordstrom   

~ Contour  & Blush ~

How many of you contour your face? I have been doing it for over two years, and I think it makes all the difference in the world. It can slim your face  and add dimension. So simple. A swipte here and one there adds so much. 

Face Trace Contour Stick

Gucci Westman's Contour Sticks are the best in the business. Besides being smooth and creamy, they are all squeaky clean without toxins. I wear the shade biscuit. It is a light brown.

Westman Atelier

Nars The Multiple
This one product does so much. It acts as a blush, lipstick, and eyeshadow. It's so easy to use. They have just changed the formula. I hope that I like it as much as I did the old formula. I love the shade "Dazed" which is a peachy beige.

Nars      Ulta

ReDimension Hydra Powder Blush

I love this blush and it's luminous finish. And true to the brand, it is talc free and totally clean. I wear Crystal Slipper. The Blush is also refillable, which is genius. 

RMS 

~ Eyes ~

Straight Up Volumizing Peptide Mascara

I am on my 2nd tube of this fabulous mascara. I was a devotee of DiorShow mascara for years. Loved it, but it did smudge under my eyes.... a lot. This mascara does not do this at all. It's totally clean without chemicals to hurt your eyes. The brush is nearly identical to the DiorShow. One caveat. I do feel the need to use an eyelash curler with it. 

RMS Beauty

Mac Big Boost Brow Fiber Gel

So good. And comes in many colors.Easy to apply and stays on until you take it off.

Mac Cosmetics 

Too Faced Better Than Sex

Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner

After trying many eyliners, I have had the best results with this. It's almost goof proof. 

Sephora

Laura Geller Blend Away Beige & Brown 8 Multi-Finish Eyeshadows

Truthfully I don't have a favorite eyeshadow, but I do enjoy Laura's palettes. They are so reasonabbly priced with very wearable shades.  

Laura Geller

~ Lips ~

I stay loyal to very few lipsticks. 

Charlotte Tilbury Hot Lips Kim K

It's the perfect pinky nude. I love the satin finish and that gold case.

Ulta  

Mac Cosmetics Satin Creme D' Nude 

Most days this is what I am wearing. I love Mac's price points, and they are often on sale. If you haven't tried their bullet lipsticks, you will love the colors. There are so many.

Mac Cosmetics

Squaky Clean Liquid Lip Balm

There are many out there, and this is the best I have ever used. All lip oils feel great and offer shine. Most of them are weak on color, except for Gucci Wesman's. I wear Nana, a cool beige  with a touch of sparkle. It's so pretty.

Westman Atelier

Sara Happ Lip Gloss

This gloss is so good, you will wonder how you ever lived without it. Sara only makes lip products, so to me she is the OG of gloss. No dehydrating ingredients. Just good for you natural oils. I wear the Nude Slip and The Rose Gold Slip.

Sara Happ

Sara Happ Cherry Lip Slip

Same gloss as above, but in a fun cherry red. It gets special mention because it on sale. Buy One Get One for Free.

Sara Happ

There you have it. And yes, you will find every one of these in my makeup bag!

Bold, Bright & Beautiful For Spring

As I create this blog post, all I can see outside is white. Yes, I am in the middle of the Northeast blizzard, but safe and sound. Like every season, there are certain colors that trend. The primary and bright colors were what caught my eye the most. It's an optimistic take on life. Don't we all need that?

Sculpural Swing Coat

One of my favorite finds. It's made with textured Italian cotton, and looks so well done. There is  a dress and pants to match.
