{recent} beauty favorites

 

 

Happy Tuesday! I’ve been a busy little bee at my apartment the past few weeks trying loads of products to gear up for posts that’ll share my favorites for spring and summer! (Next up…hair care), but first here’s some little items that have me oo’ing and ahh’ing for all their genius little power.

// 1. Murad Clarifying Mask: Of all the masks I’ve tried (and that’s a lot!) this one definitely is a front-runner. It’s sulfur and clay based that works to purify and deep clean. I use it once a week and have found it really works to absorb excess oil & prevent additional breakouts.

// 2.Essie ‘Lollipop’: Talk about a stellar spring shade! This isn’t a new color for Essie, but it’s perfectly punchy and great for before I start to go all pink all the time this summer on my nails.

// 3. Bare Minerals Advanced Protection SPF 20 Moisturizer: I’m wearing moisturizer less these days because my skin has just been too damn oily (TMI?), but I’m dabbing this on for the weekends to provide a wee bit of coverage and the very necessary SPF. This is going to be a staple in my beach bag!

// 4. Bare Minerals Blemish Therapy: This guy is a little lifesaver. Similarly to the above in avoiding moisturizer for the time being, my derm told me last week to steer clear of all oil based products, concealers included. Therefore this guy came a the right time because its powder formula not only conceals and minimizes pores, it also treats throughout the day. GENIUS.

// 5. Benefit Cosmetics Dr. Feelgood: My mattifying saving grace, right here, ladies. Perfect for mid-day touch-ups and packed with Vitamins A, C and E. Can be worn with or without makeup so it’s really ideal in any situation….love, love, love.

brooklyn flea in fryes

Urban Outfitters dress, Levi’s jacket, Frye Jayden Roper boots (c/o), Kate Spade tights, Marc by Marc Jacobs Q Hillier bag, Ray Ban aviators

The team at Frye was kind enough to send me the Frye boots I blogged about here and I’ve had such a great time styling them, particularly with dresses as the weather transitions. And they are SO comfortable! Wore the above look when my friend Megan was in town the other week and we headed over to visit the Brooklyn Flea to peek at all the pretty baubles and treat ourselves to Dough (o.m.g.).

A few more snaps from the flea (hi Megs!) below as well…hope everyone had a great weekend!

blazers on the brain

 

I’m in love with practically every jacket and blazer that Zara currently has in store and online. The perfect layering piece, a colorful, textured or printed blazer is just what a springtime outfit needs as we transition into summer, don’t you agree?
