Japanese Influenced Cosmetic Line: Harajuku Lovers

Musician and fashion designer, Gwen Stefani's fashion line, L.A.M.B, produces a fun line of designs inspired by Japanese street style. Harajuku Lovers is a product of L.A.M.B. The delightful little fragrances are unique. They come in 5 different personalities, all appropriately named, with  small doll figurines as the cap to the bottle. You will want this collection for your tween or teen daughter..but why do they get to have all the fun?? I own three of the collection and have given them away as gifts...this is, for sure, is a bottle that you will never want to throw away!!!!  Keep to display in your bath or vanity. These girls are just too cute; you will want to keep them around for a long time.  L.A.M.B is an acronym for Love, Angel, Music, Baby, one of Gwen's slogans...the perfumes are named after each of one of these themes.

Sephora Product Picks

:::Recent Make Up Product Picks:::: 

I recently tried out Kat Von D's Sinner perfume when it came as a sample with one of my orders.  It is a wonderful mix of floral, cinnamon, creamy vanilla and musk. Love this scent!


Kat Von D 
Sinner 1.7 oz eau de parfum $55.00  sephora.com 

If you are looking for a precision liner that is a hybrid between a pencil and a liquid, then try out Kat Von D's Tattoo Liner. It is easier to apply than any liquid liner I've ever tried and this stuff does not budge!! It only comes off with eye makeup remover. 


Five different colors choices: Skater (dark blue), Biker (dark smoke), Lapdance (plum), Mayh (deep brown), and Trooper (ink black)
Sephora.com $18

Urban Decay Eye Primer in Sin (simmering champagne) $18

I am in LOVE with Urban Decay's eyeshadow primer potion. I
have read from several other makeup review sites that this is absolutely the BEST eye primer on the market. I haven't tested many different kinds, but I can tell you that this eye primer is the perfect base layer for your eye makeup (if you choose to wear shadows and liners), if not, it works beautifully as an eye brightener and highlighter. The only caveat to this product, and it is widely criticized, is that the applicator is a bit awkward. I usually put a spot of primer on the back of my hand and apply with my fingers.

NARS Blush

sephora.com $26.00

As far as blushes go, NARS has some of the best choices on the market. Universally flattering, with a peach flush and hint of gold shimmer, Orgasm and Super Orgasm are the most popular sellers.

NARS also makes a great bronzer/contour blush. Casino is my favorite. (dark brown with golden shimmer). Also comes in Laguna (lighter brown with golden shimmer) and Irresistiblement (desert glow).

NARS Bronzing Powder

Daily Candy: Crest Tooth Whitening Product Test

I am excited to write that I have been chosen to test a line of spankin' new not out on the shelf oral tooth whitening products by Crest. It is a new whitening enamel toothpaste, whitening oral rinse and strips. I tried the products today for the first time and mouth has never felt cleaner and I think my teeth are whiter just from today's application. I know there are a lot of whitening products on the market these days, so I am somewhat sceptical of "new and improved" varieties, but so far these new formulas seem to be working VERY well. I will post some pictures in a the coming days.
