Weekend Shopping plus Kiehl's & MAC haul

Hello Lovelies, 

I had a fabulous weekend and I am kind of sad to see it wind down.  Oh well, although the work week is upon us the weekend will be back before we know it. Then it will be time to do it all over it again. 

Ok so I had a pretty busy weekend. I attended a beauty shopping event at Nordstom's on Friday. As I previously mentioned I love Kiehl's product for skincare. So I picked up a couple of my staples that I needed. I got the Kiehl's body spray in the Forest Rain scent. I love this scent it smells very fresh and its a unisex fragrance. FYI  I was sad to learn on Friday that Kiehl's is discontinuing this scent. So if this is one of your stables you might want to re-up before they are gone forever.

I also got Kiehl's Creme de Corps with SPF 30. This is a light weight version of the original creme de corps. However, I decided to try it for summer because this formula contains SPF 30. So we will see how that goes.

I also re-upped on my facial cleanser, which is Kiehl's blue herbal facial cleanser. I will be doing a review on this product because it is a miracle worker. I will also be doing a post on my skincare routine soon.

I also picked up some more MAC makeup. Ok MAC is my favorite makeup line. I got the stackable pigments from the new surf baby line. The name of the colors are summer stash. Guys, I thought this was an amazing value. Ok a MAC pigments retails for $19. So this stackable pigments includes 4 pigments for only about $30. So if you are into pigments you might want to check these out.

The best part of my Nordstrom shopping trip were the freebies I got. I got a bottle of creme de corps in the original formula ($30 value). I also got a nice tote bag with tons of great samples. ( I might be giving this away to one of my subbies). 

Earlier today I went shopping in Philadelphia on South Street. I stopped by a few great shops and got some pretty good things. 

I went to Beadwork. A store that sells beads (of course) & supplies to make jewelry, I got a couple beads for my Pandora bracelet. I loved this store. I gotta go back I am going to make myself some earrings and a bracelet. Maybe I will get into jewelry making.

Then I stopped by a few jewelry boutiques including Pnk Elephant and picked up a few unique pieces. I can't wait to wear them.  

I also did some consigning this weekend. I got a vintage Dior, that I love.

Well that's all for now. 

Oh Friday night I went to NegriI's Village in NYC & I had a blast. The food was amazing and the ambiance was great. After dinner I danced all night in the lounge that is downstairs. It's a great spot, if you are in the NYC area, check out it.

Well, that's it for now. I hope you all enjoyed this fabulous weekend. 

Take care

Product Review: Kiehl's Creme de Corps

Hello Guys, I hope all is well.  The weather has been beautiful lately.

Now that summer seems to have officially arrived. I thought I would share my absolute favorite body moisturizer for the summertime. My go-to summer lotion is Kiehl's Creme de Corps!

Creme de Corps is a light- weight unscented lotion. Although it is a light-weight lotion it is very creamy and goes on smoothly. I love the fact that it is unscented so it does not interfere with whatever fragrance I am wearing.  I never wear scented lotions during the day for this purpose. I use heavily scented lotions for bedtime moisturizing only. 

Anyways, back to Creme de Corps, the best part about this lotion is when you apply it your skin glows! I know it sounds cheesy but honestly your skin is left with this beautiful shine to it. It makes your skin glow as if you are sun- kissed. I love it. When I apply this to my legs and arms they literally are shining all day. 

Now I can imagine what you are thinking, if a lotion provides that much sheen it must be greasy. Nope, not all, this lotion quickly observes into your skin after application. However, it leaves your skin ultra moisturized and glowing. You do not feel sticky or greasy at all.

Creme de corps also comes in a light-weight formula and it also comes with SPF. The price ranges from $10 for a 2.5oz  to $72 for 1liter. You can purchase this item from a Kiehl's store or at a Kiehl's counter in select department stores.

For more information visit:  www.kiehls.com

In order for you to see how wonderful this moisturizer is you have to try it for yourself. One of my subscribers will be receiving a bottle of Kiehl's Creme de Corps (2.5oz). I will also be giving away 3 samples of Kiehl's products, a face cream, toner & a cleansing masque. Kiehl's is my favorite brand for skincare so I hope you enjoy the goodies.

Till next time
