The colors and formulation of NARS’ nail polish line has always felt pretty luxe to me, and now, the brand has gone one step further to perfect the polish experience by reworking the formula for even longer wear and strengthening nails, but also boasts a brand new brush applicator, which in my opinion, is THE best. It really adorns the complete nail in polish with practically one swipe, and two at most to make sure you’ve got your digits 100% covered. Available now (as of today!), there are 43 shades total, with 19 of them new and 24 classics.
Also new is the 3.1 Phillip Lim for NARS collection, with nine wonderful shades that you will surely want to check out (my favorite is Gold Viper!). All are available at NARSCosmetics.com and at NARS boutiques and counters nationwide.

Natural, local, wonderful. With all of the choice in products these days, if a natural option is available, then my goodness, it is certainly going to always be the choice that I make for my body. Formulated by Clinical Aromatherapist, Kirsten King, the made-by-hand and Brooklyn-based brand Oille Natural (pronounced “oi-yell naturel”) brings lovely serums, room and linen sprays, and even soy wax candles to the forefront using certified organic botanical ingredients and essential oils to effectively treat and heal a variety of areas such as the face, body, and hair.
The sensory experience is brought full circle by the room and linen sprays and candles (don’t scents like lavender cedarwood and blood orange lemongrass sound amazing?), so that you can treat yourself to aromatic moments that lead to releasing, relaxing, and unwinding, even if it’s just for a couple of minutes.
Perfect for the summer, the Face Serum Healing Intelligence Recover includes ingredients such as macadamia nut, tamanu, lavender, and chamomile oils to promote natural healing for sun burned skin. As you can imagine, it also smells heavenly, and a drop goes quite a long way, letting your bottle last through the season, treating damage and inflammation as needed. With natural options as transparent and effective as these, giving your skin and body exactly what it has been asking for is easier than ever!
