Friday Fab Five

Happy Friday Beauties! I hope everyone has wonderful things planned for the weekend. My bff is coming in town from NYC and I CANNOT wait to see her. It shall be a weekend of catching up, yummy food, tasty drinks and dancing. EEKKK! Anyways, I digress. Back to the post. Here are five fabulous products I am currently OBSESSED with...

1. Benefit Boi-ing Lemon Aid: I picked this little gem up a few weeks ago at the checkout like at Ulta. Does anyone else ALWAYS get lured into more purchases there, or is it just me? Anywho, this stuff is a two in one: Boi-ing Concelear and Lemon Aid eyelid brightener. I have always been a fan of their Boi-ing Concealer so the eye brightener is an added plus. This duo packs an extra punch in the morning when I could use some help in the eye department. Plus, the packaging is cute and totable and has its own mirror. Genious!



2. Butter London Trout Pout: This color pops against tan skin. The perfect coral color for my piggies in the summertime.



3. John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Luminous Color Glaze: It's no secret that I am a slave to the salon. Every 8 weeks (exactly) you will find me in the chair with Ms. Lilly working her magic. That being said...I am four weeks into my color and between shampooing, sun and everyday wear and tear my colored hair starts to lose its luster. But I don't fret ever since I found this magical littler elixir. It has just enough non-permanent color and shine boosters to put some pep into my hair. It also leaves my hair feeling nice and soft afterwards. I suggest using it 3 times a week, the more you use it the more intense the color deposit.



4. Bobbie Brown Beach: Since purchasing this perfume I can always seem to find a reason to smile mid-day. In the middle of a meeting or typing away at my desk, I catch a whif of this hypnotizing scent and I am immediatly back at the beach with a cold bevvy in my hand and the sun bronzing my skin. No joke, I have even zoned out a few times.



5. FRESH Sugar Coral Lip Treatment: I love love love the FRESH Sugar balms and have tried basically all of them. Well, except for plum...sorry this gal doesn't do purple lips. Anyways, when I found out they have added a coral balm to their army I was sold. And boy am I happy! This is a great shade for summer. Looks like sunkissed lips after a long day on the beach (but less dry and salty). The price is a little steep for a lip balm, but I promise you it lasts.
