It's that time of year when everyone is looking to spend their hard earned money on the indulgences they've saved up for! I've compiled my own list of the top beauty products that any fetch hunter should put at the top of their beauty list.
Diptyque Bais Candle ($60): Scented in Rose and Blackcurrant Leaves, Bais is an exceptionally high quality floral candle from the French candle maker. The limited edition black glass and wax makes this even more of a hunt for the fetchest amongst us. Unlike a lot of French scents, this isn't a strong, overwhelming fragrance, it is instead a very natural scent that imagines a fresh field of roses in any room. A wonderful addition to your bathroom or bedroom when you spend those extra 15-30 minutes pampering yourself. A jar of this will transform any room into the ultimate spa getaway.
YULI Cellular Lip Conditioner ($26): A oil-serum hybrid in a chic green glass bottle which protects it from UV damage and also mimics plants natural chlorophyll filters to keep the plant actives vibrational energy 'alive'. YULI's Conditioner reminds me of Aesops Lip Heal, but is a thicker more hydrating formula and loaded with a lot more high-tech plant actives. I love that they're a natural company so the entire formula is non-toxic and food-grade which is important since so much of lip products are ingested anyway. This bottle packs quick a punch from antioxidants to supercritical extracts, a must have for beautiful, healthy lips!
RODIN Crema ($80): The ultimate chic hand and body cream. Crema's thick white cream smells just like their renowned facial oil and absolutely smothers the skin with moisture. Add to that a beautiful and simple modern metal tube packaging and you have yourself the fetchest addition to any travel kit or beauty routine.
Red Flower Icelandic Moonflower Body Wash ($22): Kind of like the REN of the US, Red Flower's gorgeously scented Icelandic Moonflower Body Wash is not only hydrating, but the exotic Icelandic Moonflower smells exquisite. Also a natural brand, the honey base will leave skin supple and balanced and the delicious aroma will lift spirits and mood in one wash, guranteed.
Chantecaille Nano-Gold Energizing Eye Serum ($210): A golden stick with a gold roller-ball applicator, does it get more flashy than this? For the ultimate in eye relief, Chantecaille's Nano-Gold Energizing Eye Serum comes to the rescue. Tired, puffy eyes with dark circles are no match for the Nano-Gold Particles which promise to energize, fight oxidation and inflammation, and plant stem cells. Not only will your eyes look good, but you'll literally feel more energized just applying this cool serum.
Nasomatto Black Afgano ($185): Lady Gaga wasn't the the first one to market a scent that turned from Black fluid to clear spray. It seems in all facets of her work, she's derivative of the work of more credible artists and scent is just one of many more examples. Nasomatto's Black Afgano is a very grimey, green fragrance from this cult house. It's meant for the man who is unafraid to be represented by a unconventional scent. The signature note is raw Hashhish, and production of the scent was halted numerous times due to import issues of the main raw material. As I said before, this is for the brave: light, airy, subtle this is not, it is a smokey, statement making scent that you'll either love or hate. But I can guarantee no one will smell like you.
Giorgio Armani Maestro Foundation ($62): The new foundation from this house renowned for their "second skin" type products, Giorgio Armani's Maestro Foundation is regarded as the new "odd child" in the foundation game. For starters it is a hybrid foundation-facial oil, whereas traditional foundations have a water-base. This gives it a unique texture and what Armani believes to be a certain "lasting power" while remaining very natural on the face. It's a very sheer, light coverage foundation but definitely does give the perfect layer for those who, like me, have somewhat normal-oily complexion but don't want their skin to be dried out either. This revolutionary product will take some adjustment but will definitely keep you informed and ahead of the game, which is what we're all about here.
Sunday Riley Effortless Tinted Primer ($48): The innovative tinted primer that also lets your skin breathe, this is a perfect product for those of you who want a primer that provides some (light) coverage while letting your skin breath with its innovative use of silicones which unlike other primers on the market, will allow skin to breath a little more leading to a healthier complexion and possibly less breakouts. Can be worn alone or with a foundation, this tinted primer will compliment any beauty regimen or be applied alone for those 8am classes.
The Art of Shaving Horn Fine Badger Brush ($175): My favorite brush from this high-end company that focuses exclusively on mens shaving needs. The brush is thick and densely packed with fine hairs and the horn base is elegant and natural and doesn't show aging like how some plastic handles will over time. The brush provides a gentle exfoliating effect and also softens skin leading to an easier shave and post-shave skincare product regimen. The brush is made of pure badger hair which really helps to generate a full lather. The brush was made in collaboration with Gillette technologies for their expertise on giving the perfect shave.
By Terry Rose Balm ($60): A multipurpose balm for any dry place: lips, cuticles, elbows, hands, you name it! This is like a gorgeously chic and luxurious Aquaphor! It will hydrate and soften and give off a tiny amount of sheer. Now here is the best part: it smells of roses! I love my scents with Jasmine and Rose at the top. Rose is just so relaxing and luxurious so this completes the Bais candle from Diptyque quite perfectly. The rose is from this balm is just so lovely and the rose hued jelly is the perfect embodiment of the scent!
YULI Metamorphic Elixir ($50): An anti-aging elixir, this must be the Elixir of Life that the Spanish were looking for. YULI is one of the cultiest new lines out this year and they combine natural ingredients with innovative technologies in a very simple unisex packaged product. Their elixir contains Hyaluronic Acid, naturally derived bio retinols, Frequency enhanced water (which together with their botanical infusions generate really high vibrational energy that feeds and corrects aging skin). For the rose lover in me, this slightly pink hued elixir also contains actual crushed roses in its Eternal Rose Complex that has 3 different types of rose. Luxurious and decadent for the person wanting younger, smoother, brighter skin.
Investing in these products will make anyones beauty regimen chicer and skin will reward you for it!
