my play furla

I’m so excited to share that My Play FURLA is now here and better than expected! The Italian high quality handbag and leather goods brand understands that fashion and options go hand-in-hand, so using interchangeable flaps and snap closures to swap out your handbag’s look is a no-brainer. The My Play FURLA program allows the classic Metropolis bag ($298 for a solid color) to be customized by swapping out its flaps (sold separately; $98-$178 each) that come studded, printed, embossed, and glittered to add more versatility to your look. My Play FURLA is available at FURLA boutiques nationwide and online at US.Furla.com.

[Red Apple Lipstick shades of Fierce, Rebel!, Sunkissed, and Rallye (Clear) Balm]

As quoted on BeautyHigh, one of my beauty resolutions for 2014 was to experiment with darker shades of lipstick, and upon seeing the shade “Fierce” by Red Apple Lipstick ($23.50 each), I knew it had to be on my must-have list! The brand itself certainly piqued my interest; a mineral-based formula and free of gluten, parabens, toxins, overall allergens, and soy, and Made in the USA,  I like that the brand features real women wearing the various lipstick shades on the site, as well as provides application tips for a stellar pout.

I found each product to as opaque, yet moisturizing as expected, and the clear Rallye Balm ($15) truly felt luxurious sliding on! The brand has great customer service and a generous return policy (return up to six months from the purchase date), while products (also includes makeup brushes, lipgloss, liners, more) are exclusively available through Red Apple Lipstick’s website.

#PGMOSTLOVED

This “P&G Most Loved”  collection (Proctor & Gamble) arrived on my door step this week, and I do have to say that each item holds a rightful, necessary place in my health, beauty, and even fashion routine. It would be silly to leave hope without a Tide To Go Stain Eraser Pen in case of any spills to quickly lift the stain, razors, and extra razor blades is super duper importance for hair maintenance (Venus Embrace for me, Gillette Fusion ProGlide Power Razor for him); growing out my bangs and keeping my look in place requires a little spritz (Pantene Hairspray Flexible Hold); while I see signs of exhaustion and aging around my eyes, the Olay Regenerist Anti-Aging Eye Roller is MANDATORY; and last, COVERGIRL Outlast Double LipShine can leave me with a clear, dewy wet lip look, or add in a bit of opalescent color for up to 10 hours of wear!
