Beauty Buys

I'm trying to catch up since I haven't posted in the last few days and have been busy with work as well as checking out what's in stores and getting ready for Fall (even though it's been in the upper 80's here in NYC). I've picked up a few new pieces which I'll share in the next few days/weeks, but I'm always sure to buy some new nail colors and blush for Fall. Not only do our wardrobes have to change season to season, but our beauty regimen needs to be tweeked a bit too. I headed over to MAC to pick up a new blush for Fall. I was currently wearing another blush from MAC but it was definitely more on the Spring/Summer side, as it was a peachy/coraly color. I absolutely loved how it looked with tan skin. Now that I'm getting back to my semi pale self, I decided to get back to a warmer more rose, mauve color. As usual, MAC came through for me and I picked up this awesomely lovely color shimmer blush form them. It's called Breezy and just perfect! It's the perfect shade and has a hint of shimmer which gives the color some depth. I wore it for the first time today and LOVE it! It made my whole face light up and gave me a certain ....glow. The color probably won't transcend as well in these pics, but I would definitely recommend checking this out if your looking for a new blush.


















I also picked up this super cheapie nail color ($1.99 in Duane Reade) that I really dig. It's an almost black color with a hint of green shimmer. So subtle, yet makes all the difference.
