On the 2nd day...

After taking the time to beautify your face a great setting spray is always an essential. The latest one we've been using is Urban Decay's All Nighter. Spritz this over your face and enjoy picture perfect makeup for up to 16 hours!



Sephora even sells a mini one for $13.00. Fits perfectly in your purse to take on the go. 

On the 3rd day...

Body Bling is always a staple in my kit. It makes it's most appearances in these drab winter months. I am loving the new formulation and easy-to-use tube. It is also still available in the Original and Platinum (for fairer skin) versions.

On the 5th day...

 L'Oreal's Voluminous False Lashes is an absolute must for glamming it up this holiday season.

The tube is filled with short and long fibers that grasp onto your real lashes and creates a lot of length and volume. It's great if you don't have the time (or patience) to apply the real thing.  

For best results we recommend applying two coats while lashes are still wet. Avoid using this product on your lower lashes. You don't want to risk the fibers falling underneath your eyes. 

For $10.00 this makes the perfect stocking stuffer. 

After all what girl doesn't love a great mascara?

After attending all the holiday parties this season your skin will be begging for a pick me up.
