I hope everyone is having a great weekend. I’ll be attending The Makeup Show LA today for the first time even though this year marks the 7th year they have been on the West Coat. Stay tuned for a full recap of my experience. In the meantime I have a few reads that I’ve been loving this past week that I wanted to share.
  • Café Makeup reviews and compares the new Laura Mercier Face Illuminator Powder in Indiscretion to the previously released Spellbound
  • British Beauty Blogger has a preview of Chanel Les Beiges coming out this summer, I need one of everything please!
  • I have major envy of this beautifully edited and well organized makeup desktop on Tamira Jarrel (formerly Lipstick With Some Sunshine)
  • The RaeViewer has a gorgeous tutorial on how to use the MAC Nordstrom Naturals x15 palette
  • It’s been a while since I bought something from Clinique but the Nude Pop Cheek Pop Blush looks utterly gorgeous on Temptalia
  • Beauty Professor has 6 shades of Burberry Kisses swatched and reviewed
I love using Instagram as a way to keep up with my favorite reads in beauty, fashion, travel and more. A few that I’ve been loving:
  • @theglowedit Kate Rooney has some of the most gorgeous beauty images filled with amazing marble backgrounds, Jo Malone, Tom Ford Byredo, and much more 
  • @gossmakeupartist is always a fun one to follow, right now he has a sneak peek of Tom Ford Beauty Summer and it’s to-die-for gorgeous
  • @savinachaiyj has a feed filled with crisp and clean imagery of all things beautiful
  • @parisinfourmonths is forever a favorite and brightens up my day every day
  • @bigskymunchkins is a must for kitty-lovers, the new kittens are too cute for words
I hope you have a wonderful Sunday! (P.S. Above shown is Fresh Sugar Nude, in case you missed it, the review + swatches here.)

    • Sabrina March 30, 2015 at 1:25 am

      Thank you Casey 🙂

    I picked up four of the Clinique cheek pops and one of them is Nude Pop, so gorgeous.

  • Nicole March 29, 2015 at 11:21 pm

    Superb styling as usual!!! Do you have a source for that glass mug? It's gorgeous!

    • Sabrina March 30, 2015 at 1:25 am

      Hi Nicole, yes! Sorry I forgot to list where, I updated the post. It's a Nespresso mug from the VertuoLine set (linked above). I think it's exclusive online and to Nespresso boutiques.

    Tom Ford summer! Be still my beating heart! LOL As soon as I saw Wayne's preview, I started saving money. It's all about fun in the sun and sultry summer nights. That man certainly knows how to do sexy.

  • Eileen March 30, 2015 at 1:08 am

    Oh, I forgot to say that Beaut.ie has the TF collection, too, and you can see the new eyeshadow duos which come in a stack like the eye primer. There is a cream color in a jar topped by a "celestial " shade in a pan. I can hardly wait 🙂

    • Sabrina March 30, 2015 at 1:26 am

      Thank you!! I am heading over there right now, I can't wait for the launch either!!

  • The Beauty Professor March 30, 2015 at 1:20 am

    Hope you had a marvelous time at the show today, my friend!! Can't wait to hear about what you procured ; )

    XO,
