NEW: Makeup Setting Sprays from Urban Decay


With a reputation for being the best when it comes to long-lasting makeup (their Primer Potions are world-wide best-sellers), Urban Decay has partnered with Skindinavia to offer beauty enthusiasts an exciting lineup of post-makeup products. The triumvirate of setting sprays are packed with super-effective ingredients that address specific needs. All Nighter is great for all skin types and helps keep makeup picture perfect and in place all day (and night) long – even under harsh conditions like humidity, a good cry and sweating up a storm on the dance floor.

This formula is suited for athletes, outdoorsy gals and mature ladies dealing with pesky hot flashes. Finally, De Slick — for oily/combination and acne prone skin — works wonders to absorb excess oil and control surface shine. $29 each, urbandecay.com

NEW: Guerlain Terracotta 4 Seasons


I love all things Guerlain, and with the Terracotta collections, their bronzers have proven to be the best of the best. New for summer 2010, Terracotta 4 Seasons (which I believe will be a permanent line addition) is definitely new new favorite. An updated compact holds 4 exquisite bronzing shades that allow for the perfect level of bronze all year round.  In addition, these powders are formulated with pure gold, which illuminates the skin without shimmer for matte, radiant and never greasy or shiny-looking results. At $74, this is definitely a budget buster that's worth every last penny! Find it at select Sephora, Saks, Nordstrom and Bloomingdale's locations nationwide.

Scents of Summer...

Happy August! Can you believe summer is already halfway over? I know I live in the land of forever sunny & steamy, but there's just something about the months of July & August that make summer weather that much more special. In honor of my favorite season, I thought I'd share some of my favorite seasonally-scented products with y'all. 

Lilly Pulitzer Beachy

Watermelon, Citrus, Marine Air Accord, Jasmine, Tiare Flower, Frangipani, Salt Crystals, Amber and Vanilla mix together to create the essence of  Palm Beach, my home. It's not just a place, it is a state of mind. $48

Pacifica Hawaiian Ruby Guava Soy Candle


Let the sweet scent of ripe guava and bright pomelo whisk you away to a paradisical escape, even as Fall's leaves begin to change. This candle burns for 100 tropical hours. $16

Philosophy Coconut Frostin


Revel in the classic aroma of sunscreen with a super-moisturizing dessert for your skin. The essence of pure coconut will take you far, far away. Might as well put one of those little paper umbrellas in your drink, too. $20

Kahala by Demeter Fragrance Library

Sea salt and pacific ocean essence is captured within, and it doesn't get any more simple or perfectly summer than this. $20

Play (Hair) Ball!



Laid back, playful and sometimes even sexy, the ponytail is a summer hairstyle staple.

The baseball-sized orb bears 100 hair bands in aqua, orange and grey and should surely last way past summer's sweltering days.  $20 at bumbleandbumble.com

Nail Polish Picks: Duri Spring/Summer 2009

Lesser known than the big names like Essie & OPI, Duri is probably recognized most for their superb nail growth treatment, Rejuvacote. However, the Spring/Summer 2009 polish colors really caught my eye recently. With 12 shades that range from sassy to outright saucy, I've already added a few to my rapidly growing nail color collection.

My favorites include:

#506 Hawaiian Honeymoon




#507 Bachelorette Party



#508 Happily Ever After
