I love scarves and I think they are so important and a fabulous addition to almost any outfit. It gives an extra kick and more style. Be sure to not overdo your look. It you have a print shirt do a plain scarf and if you have a plain color top do a fun print silk scarf. My favorite ones are from Thomas Wylde. My best friend Nicole Allowitz who is the stylist on Access Hollywood and a fashion diva got me into them. They make a great gift too. You can’t buy them everywhere so you have to hunt. It is worth it, I have found them on Haute Look! Her scarves are great when the weather is warm since they are thin but if it is cold out or you live in the cold then you can rock one for warmth and style! I would try a cashmere one with some fringe. They become a great thing to collect and they fit everyone!

Do you wake up in the morning with puffy eyes like I do (because I don’t sleep but still!!) I just found the best product that works to take the puff away, fast too!!!! It is called DePuffing action eye gel from Benefit. You literally feel it working within seconds. It has changed my life!  I put it on before I take my kids to school and now I don’t have to wear sunglasses at 8:00am if I don’t want too!!
Another one of my favorite products from Benefit that I use every day is their blush called Dallas. It is in a sassy little package (a cool square box with a horse on it) it is a really nice color.
Ooh La Lift is great to use after you’ve de puffed the bags and you put your make up on. You dab a bit under your eye and it brightens you up!!!!!!!!!!

EYE LINERS

I am a big fan of eye liners. I have small dark brown eyes and I love putting color on them to make them look bigger, from shadows, to glitter and liners and mascara.
My favorite old school cheapy liner is Cover Girl, perfect blend, in Blk/Brown. I use that every day under my eye to bring out my brown eyes.
I am addicted to Lorac’s Midnight sparkle glitter liner. It is a big fat pencil and goes on really easy. I put that over the cover girl.
Urban Decay black eye liner for the inside of your eye rocks!!! They also have incredible colors. They are so soft and go on so easily so you don’t feel like you are cutting the skin around your eye. I not only like the way it goes on, I like the way it stays on.
Stilla eye liners are super soft and smudgy and they have fun colors too.
Urban Decay heavy metal glitter eye liner is MY ALL time FAVORITE!!! I can’t live without it, I am addicted and I have to say that I put it on in the morning to go to work! I learned about it when I was a judge on Launch my Line and I have been in love ever since. I used to only wear it at night but I couldn’t enough! It just gives you that extra feminine sparkle that all women need!! It makes me smile. I get compliments on it all day from everyone!

I wanted to share some of my favorite products from Kiehl’s that I use daily. I just went to the Kiehl’s store which is on the famous Robertson because I was out of all my favorite products. My top favorite item is the liquid body cleanser. I hate bar soap and this is all I have used for years. My favorite scent is the gardenia, (so yummy), they stopped making cucumber which is such a bummer, coriander is great, grapefruit too (I hate citrus but I still like this one for some reason) and the latest I tired is Pear tree. Pear tree is sold as a hand soap but Nikki who works there told me I could use it the same way and it is awesome for bubble baths and washing.
Every night I take a bubble bath with the Kiehl’s lavender foaming relaxing bath.
French Rosewater toner is an oldie but a goodie which I use after I wash my face. The blue astringent herbal lotion is strong but good, I use that to get any extra makeup off my face. This is a great product for men too. My husband loved it!
Lastly, the line reducing eye brightening is a great eye cream that I use morning and night.
I am not a big products girl so when I find something I like, I am very loyal.  The people that work there are very nice and informative. I also find the store a nice addition to the street and I am proud to be their neighbor. A tip for all you girls… they have great products for guys. I love buying presents there for guys and they seem to love the products too. The musk oil is my favorite, it is so sexy and subtle.  They have cool masculine wrapping, a white box and big black satin ribbon.
They have great samples too, perfect for travel and then you can test new products out to see if you are into them!
