Bobbi Brown Nude Finish Tinted Moisturizer

Bobbi Brown Nude Finish Tinted Moisturizer SPF 15 ($46) is a newly formulated nude, tinted moisturizer that was introduced for the Spring 2016 in 9 shade selections. As a fan of Bobbi’s original tinted moisturizer, I decided I wanted to try out the Nude Finish version as it did sound intriguing with it’s sheer, lightweight formula.

It’s not official but I believe Nude Finish will replace the original Tinted Moisturizer formula which appears to be disappearing quickly from a variety of locations. For example, Sephora.com only has a single shade in stock and Nordstrom isn’t carrying it at all.

This is a shame as I actually prefer the original formula compared to the new version.

Introduce Yourself to a New Gourmand Niche Fragrance

I purchased this item.

Twisted Lily Fragrance Samples

I think I speak for the masses when I say we each want to find our own individual, unique signature fragrance. That one (or two or three or four or five) fragrance that’s super special so special that it’ll have people question, “What are you wearing?”

There are tons of fantastic designer fragrances as well as celebrity fragrances and perfumes available on the market but many of them are pretty generic and aren’t terribly unique.

This is one reason I prefer indie and niche fragrances. Niche or indie fragrances always offer something a little different, something quite special, and in many cases something truly unique.

If haven’t yet ventured into niche fragrances here’s a good way to introduce yourself to them! Actually not only to introduce yourself to a new niche fragrance but how about introduce yourself to a new gourmand niche fragrance or several in fact!

Here’s how!

I can’t believe Easter is around the corner. It came so very early this year! Not to mention the very mild March we are having! I suspect April will be rainy though.

I thought I’d round up a few posts I did around this time last in makeup and beauty for you to have a look at! It’s kinda fun looking back on March last year’s releases versus the ones avaiable this year.

Urban Decay Gash Lipstick returned for Spring 2015 last year. God, how I love Gash! Truly a great lipstick! This March, we’re seeing UD XX Vice Ltd Reloaded Palette as the big one that’s on everyone’s lips. Will you be hauling it?

I was just discussing orange becoming a potential trend for Summer 2016 and go figure last year around this time I was discussing orange lipsticks and glosses!

Hard Candy has a lot on offer for Spring/Summer 2016 but let’s no forget how great the Hard Candy Plumping Serum Lipstick was! If you haven’t tried it you’re in for a treat!
