Summer Beauty Goodies

It's been pretty warm here in Utah and I've found a few favorite makeup pieces that still make a gal look polished without layers of makeup!  I am always "glowing" (read: a sweaty Betty) for most of the warmer months, so tons of makeup just melts off my face as soon as I step out of the a/c!  These are all great options for the heat!

This Soft Matte Lip Cream from NYX is the BOMB.

It's totally build-able and gives this velvety color pop to your lips.

Add mascara and you're good to go!

Benetint Rose-Tinted Lip and Cheek Stain is the holy grail of a natural-looking flush!

It really stays put all day long and gives a soft color to your lips and cheeks.

SO. PRETTY.

 

Laura Geller Bronze-n-Brighten is a great way to add some "sun" to your face.

I like to sweep it on after I put on my sunglasses.  It sounds crazy, but adding bronzer to your temples, above your eyebrows, and just underneath your cheekbones makes you look like you have a natural tan!  Try it, it really works!

Wanderlusttimetravel from Your Desk

I am 100% positive a place like this doesn't exist, but I'll be here today while playing catch-up at work!  I've seem to have caught a summer cold and it's really putting a cramp in my style.  Do you have any cold remedies that help get you back on your feet?  I've been hitting the vitamin C and zinc pretty hard these past few days, but am still feeling, well, fuzzy.  Any suggestions would be very appreciated!

Little Birdie

I am loving these little bird silhouette tattoos.  I don't know if it's the summer approaching or what, but I am getting the itch to get another tattoo!  If you were getting a tattoo, what would you get?

Cut Offs

I am ready for cut off weather, what about you?

I'm thinking a big, flowy top with beat up, frayed cut offs 

should do the trick for me!

*Swoon!*

 

Having some serious wanderlust today!

Where would you go?

Last Day of Summer 2010

Can you believe how quickly summer flew by this year??

I was just getting used to the lovely warm evenings and now they're starting to get chilly again!

What are you going to do on this last day of summer?

Shug and I are going to work our butts off,

come home,

sit in our backyard,

drink a glass of wine,

watch Ruby run around,

and eat a big tomato salad

from our garden.

What are you going to do?
