EOS REVIEW

EVOLUTION OF SMOOTH REVIEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HELLO PEEPS!!!!!! BEEN WAYYYYYYY TOO LONG BUT I'M BACK...

I'm gonna kick start my blog again by bringing to you my review on EOS lip balm.  I'm currently in the US for a while and at this time of year this Caribbean beauty gets all dry in these parts brrrrrrrrr!!!

So I waltz on into ULTA and see this cute looking lip balm in the form of a pink ball, low and behold it's EOS.  I purchased the Pomegranate Raspberry and I must say this is heavenly.

Now for all you health nuts this product is gluten-free, paraben-free, petroleum-free and phthalate-free.  It is made of 100% all natural, 98% organic, made from vitamin E, shea butter and jojoba oil along with the various berry and acai flavors.  It glided on smooth and kept my lips baby-butt soft all day long...

DEFINITELY A GREAT BUY and I will be collecting all 7 flavors.

NYFW MAKEUP: MARC JACOBS!

So for Marc Jacob's collection, he opted for a very 60s inspired look which is one of my fav looks so far.  A  banana-shaped line of shadow was applied with a brush to the crease of the lids for a very 1960s look, whilst dark liner was applied around the eyes.


Brows were heavily defined while skin and lips were of a pale/matte finish.....Great look for the runway!!!

NYFW SPRING 2013 DESIGNER OF THE DAY: BEHNAZ SARAFPOUR

Today I am featuring loved designer Behnaz Sarafpour......

She brought an ingenious mix of classic yet edgy, dipped in shades of yellow, pale pink and white leaving a somewhat angelic aura.  These feminine designs were set amid a very "Titanic" setting with the looming staircase and grand chandeliers, not forgetting the master ballroom......

Overall very simple yet bold pieces, would definitely love to get my hands on a couple....

NYFW SPRING 2013 DESIGNER OF THE DAY: ORGANIC BY JOHN PATRICK

So to kick off my series of posts on Mercedes Benz New York Fashion Week Spring 2013, we're going to take a look at ORGANIC by JOHN PATRICK.....

This particular designer caught my attention because his collection reminded me a lot of our Caribbean aesthetic with its fuss-free, layer happy lineup anchored in tone-on-tone two-piece suits paired with slouchy, wide-legged line trousers, flirty, high-waisted cotton minis, and dare-to-bare shorties.  Simply gorgeous, very easy-breezy, after all it is a SPRING COLLECTION and I do think he captured that perfectly.

In his latest eco-conscious collection is inspiration came from living in a commune in the summer of 1973.  A "Hippy-haven" he called it.










HIS MESSAGE: "Its not body-conscious but, conscious of the body"
