Deborah Lippmann Jewel Heist Collection for Fall 2013

by

Glittered to the nines, the latest six hues from Deborah Lippmann, Jewel Heist,  is heavily, and heavenly laden with all things that sparkle in the nighttime, making the name rather apropos. The dark, rich shades are destined to be phenomenal for fall, kicking the nail obsession with all things that shimmer and sparkle into high gear. My favorite of the six is Va Va Voom, perfectly described as a “scintillating, sparkling sapphire,” with thick, chunky, saturating glitter running throughout.

Wear it alone, or layer over another opaque shade, such as the midnight blue hue of “Rolling in the Deep,” finished off with a clear top coat. The shades, which retail for $17-$19, are 5-Free (DBP, Toluene, Formaldehyde, Formaldehyde Resin, and Camphor) and also cruelty-free, bottled in these beautiful glass jars which are art in and of themselves! Find the Deborah Lippmann Jewel Heist Collection at specialty and fine retailers nationwide, such as Nordstrom, Bloomingdale’s, and online at DeborahLippmann.com.

At home, I never give my nails an ample amount of time to dry, pretty much defeating the purpose of painting my digits in the first place! At the salon, the nail techs carefully monitor that you’ve spent enough time under the dryers, which you can now do yourself, at home! For nail junkies, the Belson Profiles Professional Single Hand Nail Dryer, $24.95, at Folica.com is a godsend; super small, incredibly lightweight (at 2lbs), and portable, the dryer features a warm and cool feature, so that you can decide on a comfortable drying temperature, and is small enough to store almost anywhere, as well as portable for wherever you decide to do your nails in the house on any given day.

NIVEA Keeps My Legs Subtly Spectacular

After recently suffering a humiliating, yet hilarious “tancident,” which basically resulted in user error in application and color selection, I decided that it was time to find a self-tanning product that gradually produced a subtle glow, instead of a remarkably darker aesthetic, which also left a LOT of room for highly visible mistakes. All I ever wanted was some color on my legs, which never seems to happen, and always feel so ghastly pale to me. After testing a few gradual tanners, the best bet, for results AND value, ended up being extremely easy to identify. NIVEA’s Sun-Kissed Beautiful Legs, about $7.99, in the hue of fair to medium skin seemed to be created specifically for my dilemma, as it gradually produces the slightest change in tone, without staining my hands, or any fabric I come into contact with after application.
