Finds of the Month

March’s finds come in very small packages but bear great potential and have been used non-stop. It was an off month for me, for the most part, but my dive into the world of beauty continues and new products must be tried to simplify life.

NARS Sheer Glow Foundation in Mont Blanc.
Let’s start with the foundation of the month. I previously did a post about concealers and primers and, coming up next, will do one on foundations. Since I’m trying out the NARS concealer (in vanilla) and primer, I decided it was time to try their foundation. At the store, a very nice woman tried two different foundations on me but we both decided this would be coming home with me. It’s very natural looking, blends in well but it has to be highly moisturized before and applied with your hands. Needless to say I’ve been using it all-the-time.

Bobbi Brown Natural Brow Shaper in Blonde.
Moving on to the eyebrows, this product was recommended by a friend and I’ve been applying it everyday after I fill them with a pencil. It’s sort of a creamy, shaping and defining gel that gives them a lighter color and combs them well. I simply love it and can’t recommend it enough.

Marc Jacobs Essential Hues 3 Piece Petites Highliner Gel Eye Crayon Set.
Still on the eyes matter, this Marc Jacobs set of eyeliner crayons has been life changing, literally. I would steer clear of eyeliners because I was very, very afraid, but these ones are so simple to apply that I can’t believe I’ve been doing it myself. Their texture is soft, the colors are amazing and just a little smudged make your eyes pop. I’ve been using the dark brown for an everyday look, the black for nights out and the lighter brown for a more neutral look.

Mophie Case.
Last but never least, early last month, I found out about these babies sent from tech heaven. They’re called mophie and basically, it’s an iPhone case (but they have for several other phones) with extra battery. My battery has been crazy lately and I feel like it doesn’t even last me a day, M was complaining about the same and I decided to surprise him for our wedding anniversary and just give him a little something (we had agreed on not gifting each other). Mine is this rose gold and M’s is black.
