In addition to these sets, Nordstrom will finally let customize your own palette with 28 of their best selling shades to choose from and there’s new Dazzle lipstick and Dazzleglass glosses as well. I don’t have pictures yet but as soon as I do, you’ll see them.

Summer Fragrance Alert: Clean "Outdoor Shower Fresh"

Have you ever heard of the fragrance line "Clean?" If not you are missing out. I am one of those girls who liked to smell fresh and that is what their whole perfume line is about. They have fragrances like Simply Soap, Warm Cotton, and Fresh Laundry (which is perfect to spray on your sheets right before you have company or after you make your bed it's so inviting and gives you a warm and tingly feeling). I am enamored with this line as you can probably tell! 

They have a new limited edition scent, Outdoor Shower Fresh, perfect for the summer months it's not heavy at all, it's light, fresh, airy and just....and I don't want to sound cliche, but CLEAN!  It's Fresh, green, dewy, and exhilarating. This floral scent (but not punch-you-in-the-face-hello-my -name-is-floral) is inspired by the experience of showering al fresco, secluded by nature. Hello tarazan ladies! 

Heady exuberance and feel-good freedom have been captured and bottled in this crisp, clean, leafy-green scent. Extracts of water lily, violet leaves, and sparkling bergamot with hints of tropical rain accord and sandalwood blend into a refreshingly simple fragrance.

Clean Oudoor Shower Fresh is available now at Sephora, $69 for 60 ml Eau de Parfum. (via sephora)
LOVES IT!!! Have you tried this line??? If So what are your favorite scents! 

Don't be such a WALL FLOWER!

Okay shaving gods what on earth took so long!!!!! I having been waiting for years to see if any one of the shaving giants would finally have figured this out but they didn't go figure. They make little cartridge and razor holders that attach to shower walls but no-one thought to make a shaving cream that would do the same thing??? Tsk Tsk you guys should be ashamed; but ladies this little product is a shaving cream and razor juggling miracle! Not to mention it's more like a lotion and moisturizes skin too! What more can you ask for? 


I tried the lavender vanilla shaving cream. This cream is Ultra moisturizing for dry skin. The Bottle sticks to your shower wall for easy & space-saving dispensing. Shave cream is non-foaming and can be used dry or wet. Perfect for these summer months!!!! Exclusively at Target only!

A new Shimmer Brick ($38) I love these shimmering bricks I own 2 and now 3 this one is so perfect use as individual eyeshadows or blend for a golden shimmer I even sweep some across my decolletage when wearing a summery dress. Or you can use as a highlighter or as a blush! (Beach, a mix of warm bronzes)
