laura mercier oil free supreme foundation
Another great foundation find this week laura mercier oil free supreme. The magic word is oil free because I can’t stand oily foundations they feel too heavy on the skin and look too shiny. This one has a matte finish. It’s silicone-free, fragrance free, and doesn’t rub off too quickly. Comes in 12 shades, mine is Honey Beige. $42. Available at Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Nordstrom, Bloomingdales and Sephora.

Valentino’s got such a signature girl now, every season I reinvent the hair whether it’s a twist, a braid, or a knot. It’s a challenge but what’s very nice about it is that it’s always very pretty, very soft, very feminine. It’s a great look for women.”–Guido, Redken Creative Consultant

Kérastase Fibre Architecte Hair Serum
Absolutely loving the Kérastase Fibre Architecte which is a dual serum that seals and repairs very damaged lengths and split ends (like mine, ha!).

…You’ll see that the clothes today are very embellished, very beautiful, very luxe. I didn’t really feel like another point of view was needed.
