12 Days of Good Gifts to Give and Get - featuring Laura Mercier Secret Brightening Powder

Hi ya Gorgeous!

Happy Thursday - whoa - this month is speeding by! How is your holiday celebrations going? Are you doing any new events or making a new tradition?  My family is doing the usual, but I swear, it feels like it is happening so fast!

I have finally gotten all of the lil wee gifts for my son's stocking and the funny thing about the stocking is that, it's the smallest yet it usually costs the most since I usually pack it full of gift cards to his favorite restaurants and game store!

So today in the 12 Days of Good Gifts to Give and Get - I am featuring the Laura Mercier Secret Brightening Powder.  Why? Because it's awesome. If you have not tried any makeup from Laura Mercier, it's time you do. I'm a huge fan of her powder, lipsticks. liners, and bronzer. In fact, her bronzer is my go to for most every day!

Secret Brightening Powder - # 1 ( For Fair to Medium Skin Tones ) - Laura Mercier 

Lighter-than-air powder sets and prolongs the wear of concealer, camouflage, and other under eye products. Instantly brightens eye area.

Brightening Finish

Transparent white powder has a brightening finish that instantly adds a lightening boost to the eye area, with a touch of sheer coverage. Works on any skin tone.

Just for Eyes

Micronized pigments won't settle into fine lines, accentuate shadows, or look cakey, even in the tricky eye area where many setting powders are less than ideal.

Please note, this is really intended for just under the eyes and anywhere that needs a highlighting, so it's not for the entire face - so why buy two different powders? Because this is something that takes great care of a delicate area on the face! It's worth it!

Hi, how is your holiday weekend going? I know that you like me are out and about enjoying the amazing weather and getting ready for a Memorial Day celebration.

Recently my pal Cheryl Rhodes gave me a bottle of the new Arbonne liquid foundation. Now, I had been using the Line Defiance in 6N, but it's been reformulated and I really like the difference. It has a look,slip and feel that is so similiar to Makeup Forevers' HD foundation though it's less money but just as much seamless coverage.

I like it alone and with powder over it and it wears and wears all day! So, if you want to try some, give Cheryl an email. Her link is www.selfdiscovery.myarbonne.com

She also has a business opportunity that may be a fit for you to get some extra cash coming your way.
Remember that on Monday, Memorial Day at 3 pm United States time ( pick your zone!) where ever you are in the world, take a moment of silence to remember those that have gone before you and fought for your freedom.

:) Catch up with you soon!

WEE! It's time for bronzer and if you are tight on budget, try this easy to use, pretty darn blendable product from Wet'n'Wild. Which as you may know, is a super affordable drugstore brand that you can find almost anywhere! There are two shades, a light and a dark and version and it has a small fleck of gold in it. I've tried it over my foundation and on bare skin and both looks worked; though the no makeup just bronzed looked was very casual. Meaning I had to double up on mascara.

Remember, powder bronzer can be used on the face and body, you just need to switch to a large puff or a very large brush if you are going to use the bronzer to color up your shoulders or legs. Enjoy the savings and the new makeup for your bag and vacations!
