Red, White, & Blue in the Face: Independence Day Beauty Picks
Friday, July 2, 2010 at 10:27AM As everyone gets ready for this weekend's festivities, I'm sad to say I haven't even found something I want to wear. I'm thinking a fun dress and wedges duo but haven't gotten the time to look! C'est la vie! Whenever I don't have the time to snag something new and fun to wear, I always rely on makeup to play my look up a bit!

The Balm's Mary-Lou Manizer
This all purpose powder comes in pearlescent ivory shade and can be considered quite the triple threat. Use it as an eyeshadow, a highlighter, or even just to add a little shimmer to your look. Plus it's smooth powder formula allows for easy application - especially for those on-the-go touch ups.

I wondered where I'd be able to fit blue into my look and when I stumbled upon this polish, all questions were answered! Fresh, bright, and oh so patriotic!
Dior's Serum De Rouge Luminous Color Lip Treatment
Image Courtesy of Sephora.comI'm torn. I love lipstick but NEED the moisturizing powers of lip balm! Fortunately, Dior has answered my wishes with this bad boy. Equal parts lip-saver and punch of color, my shade of choice is their new Red Serum #850. Did I mention it's packed with mango butter and is also SPF 20?
What are your favorite holiday-hued beauty picks? Please share! I love an excuse to try something new!
Have a wonderful July 4th!

You know how they say all good things come in small packages? That rule is kept to the tee when it comes to the Bon Weekend (Good Weekend) Kit from Sampar Paris. As a girl who's always on-the-go, I've been known to carry the full-size versions of my favorite products. (Since I'm always testing this or that, I like to use a fresh canvas!)
Each product has this amazing rose scent that's not too overbearing. Cleanse, hydrate, and renew your skin anytime or anywhere!
