Bobbi Brown Brushes

Your makeup looks only as good as the brushes you use to apply it. I have several, and they are all created perfectly to do what they say they will. Above is the Angled Face Brush. I use this brush for contouring.

Sun Kissed Matte Bronzing Powder

I received this as a freebie late last year. Generally speaking, I like all makeup to have a glow, and Bobbi has a bronzer that does that, too. I use this bronzer for contour, and the matte works best for that.

Vitamin Enriched Face Base

This one little jar has changed my skin and the look of my makeup. It's really two products in one ~ a moisturizer and makeup primer. It grips foundation as it nourishes and plumps the skin. It can keep my makeup on for 24 hours { don't ask me how I know that.} Best yet, I adore the uplifting scent of Grapefruit and Geranium.

Vitamin Enriched Eye Base

Another one of my favorites. It has transformed the look of concealer on my face. It revitalizes and hydrates my eyes for a smooth concealer-ready canvas. Wouldn't be without it, but I always buy it on sale.

Long-Wear Cream Shadow Stick

These slick sticks will light up your lids. I love the ease of application and the long wear. They will stay all day without creasing. I am a bit obsessed. I own the moonstone and dusty mauve.

Highlighting Powder

If you aren't using a highlighter, think about that. This is pink glow, but there are eight beautiful shades in all. I also use it just as a blusher. The powder is super fine. Love it!

Crushed Oil Infused Lip Gloss

If you have experienced sticky gooey lip gloss, this is not that. This formula plumps, shines, and nourishes lips. It's great. The colors shown are: 

Bare Sparkle - Champagne with pops of copper and gold pearl. Kir Sugar - Burgundy with gold, bronze, and silver pearl. Bellini - Neutral pink with gold and subtle red pearl. Colors are fab!

It's a decor detail that can really elevate your space.

Saturdays At Shop This

 

Later this week, the 27th to be exact, Paris Fashion Week begins. I always love seeing the new styles, the street fashion, and the photography of Paris. So today the focus of this post is Paris! 

I absolutely love the collaboration of Frame x  Ritz Paris. The pieces are super casual but fun to own. At least they are less expensive that a stay at The Ritz. See it all at Bergdorf Goodman

Balmain Paris Hair Couture: Found this fabulous stying comb in gold plate. I am not sure who needs this, but it so pretty. Almost a piece of art. 

Paris by Tiny Town: Expand the world of little ones with this magnetic toy set. Suitable for ages 3+

Ceci-Cela Patisserie: I am very lucky to live two minutes from a very fine French Patisserie. If you don't, Gold Belly can hook you up with Buttery French Croissants, Pain au Chocolat, Chausson Aux Pommes or Pain Aux Raisins. They are created by French master chef, Laurent Dupal. They are shipped for free, and ready to serve. Read more...

What To Eat In Paris Right Now, according to Musician Gracie Abrahams

 Palais des Thés: Colors of Tea Paris For Her. Green Tea flavored with Rose, Raspberry & Lychee. It's the prettiest tea ever, made in France. A great gift idea for the tea lover.

Paris Music ~ Not the kind you hear, but the type you wear. Jessica Matlin, Moda Operandi Beauty Director, swears by this fragrance. I love the simple bottle and the name. She says that it is one of those scents that becomes one with the body. It's created by Matiere Premiere.

Paris Chic:  Here's your next coffee table book, or a gift for the francophile in your life. It is an intimate and photographic look at daily life in Paris.

Chantelle: Channel your inner Parisian and step up your lingerie lineup. Family owned and based in Paris, this lingerie house has a focus on comfort and fit. I might add it is all so beautiful. It will add the ooh la la to your wardrobe. Shop it at Chantelle or Saks Fifth Avenue

Just Say Oui!  If you love this word as much as I do, head over to Clare V for some fashion and accessories featuring the word Oui!

Chanel: You can't talk about France or Paris without thinking about Chanel. My "go to" fragrance has been Coco Mademoiselle for many years. Their makeup is exquisite. On my radar is a new-ish product, the Water Fresh Blush. It is said to give you a natural flushed finish. I think I will try it.

French Girl Chic: Sandro Paris is having a big sale. You might want to check it out. Love their things!

Whatever you do this weekend, remember accessories are key!
