WEEKLY STYLE LUST: TOP SHOP NEWNESS

 

So far this summer I haven’t seen many fashions that have excited me. Is it just me or does everything seem basic? Whatever it is, there was something about the print of this ensemble that caught my eye; and those of you that know me know that I am truly a sucker for prints. I thought this print-on-print outfit would look great complimented with colors of orange and pink. Product info below:

What fashions have you seen so far this summer that have excited you? 

WEEKLY BEAUTY CRUSH: OCC TARRED + FEATHERED

This week Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics, better known as OCC, released its new Tarred & Feathered Color Correcting Lip Balm Duo exclusively to Sephora.  Since the brand is celebrating its 10 year anniversary, it’s bringing back one of the products that started it all. This duo defines lips with 'Tarred' (in sheer, true black) or brightens with 'Feathered' (in sheer, true white) while leaving lips hydrated. It doesn’t look as scary as it sounds; take a look at what the product looks like on…

ADD IT OR PASS IT: INNOVATIVE BEAUTY

So, this week I came across two beauty products that I thought were pretty interesting. The first is the Cerafly, which is an FDA approved headband used for the prevention of migraines. The battery-powered device resembles a headband and is affixed to the center of the forehead using a self-adhesive electrode. This electrode then applies an electric current to the skin and underlying body tissues to stimulate branches of the trigeminal nerve, which has been associated with migraine headaches. Cefaly® is available by prescription-only and indicated for patients 18 years of age and older. It should be used only once daily for 20 minutes. ($299 cefaly.com)

The other product is called a Sun Glove by Bloxsun. The Sun Glove is a UPF50+ glove that protects against the aging and damaging rays of the sun. Unlike most cold weather gloves, these don’t cover your finger tips so you can go about your daily routine of texting, tweeting, and “Vining” without interruption. The gloves are made of 95% nylon and 5% spandex. ($40 bloxsun.com)

So, what do you think? Would you add either one of these innovative beauty products to your Beauty Closet, or would you pass on them and why?
