I question if the airlines have done studies on exactly how much the temperature on the mainland impacts demand for flights to the tropics, since it sure seems like there’s a connection to me. The chillier it gets, the more I long for the tropics.
And wouldn’t ya understand it? We went from upper-80s right here two weeks back to a week of 60-something-degree days, with a extremely chilly breeze, as well as so, of course, I can’t stop believing about warm beaches…

You understand that old stating about missing the beach, right? — “A trip to Sephora heals all wounds.”
Okay, so perhaps that’s not a genuine saying…but it should be!
Can’t you see it across the front of a Roxy rash guard? Or cross-stitched on a huge beach towel hanging on the wall of a surf shop?

Because not even Tabs can modification the weather condition (lord understands he’s tried), I headed to Sephora yesterday looking for beach-themed beauty…
And I started at NARS! — with the new $49 restricted edition beach enthusiast Set.
It includes a medium Laguna Illuminator, a mini Orgasm Blush/Hungry Heart Highlighter Duo, a Skorpios mini Soft Touch shadow Pencil as well as a medium Laguna Lip Gloss.

I’ve been meaning to swatch Laguna Lip Gloss for a while (every time I hear the name, I believe Laguna beach as well as state “Stephen!”). It’s a bronzed brown with golden shimmer.

It’s pretty, isn’t it? type of a less disco version of MAC Oh infant Lipglass?
I hope NARS releases a full-size tube…
On the topic of glosses, a couple others likewise caught my eye — the two new shades of the larger Than Life Lip Glosses in Gold Digger (a sparkling peach shimmer) as well as born This method (a light lavender pink).

Holy wow! just look at that restricted edition Laguna Illuminator. It’s $45, however that’s a ton of Laguna.
I was really marveling at it when I ran into a visitor named Mary at the Novato store! She was right next to me inspecting out the NARS blushes.
Mary, if you’re reading this, hi, girl! I hope you like your new pan of Amour blush!
After NARS, I felt a bit warmer, however not rather warm enough, so I surfed over to Hourglass…
Yup, I’m still crushing difficult on their eyeshadow duos (remember Dune?). They have one called Lagoon ($38) that totally reminds me of tropical waters…

See that crazy pigmented glittery black up there? It’s half of the Prism duo, which likewise includes a shimmery slate blue.
Yeah, I believe I requirement to spend some “meow time” keeping that one, too.
Oh — as well as if you’re looking for a great primer/serum, next time you’re at Sephora, ask them to make you a sample of the new No.28 primer Serum ($65).
It’s designed to do the task of a makeup primer while hydrating as well as protecting your skin once again “environmental aggressors,” as well as it contains a lot of practical components (28 of them, to be precise), like vitamins as well as necessary oils.
Compared to my routine hourglass primer, Veil, No. 28 feels a bit slicker, more slippery.
I like both, however I believe I prefer No. 28 for flash photography (or evening events), since it doesn’t contain sunscreen, so there’s no possibility of a white cast coming with in pics.
After checking out the hourglass area, I sauntered over to the close-by fragrance section to sniff some scents…
Since I lurves my Italian perfumes, I started with a huge whiff of Giorgio Armani’s Aqua di Gioia ($62).
It’s been out for a while, however I hadn’t gotten around to seriously sniffing it up until now.
The name, Aqua di Gioia, means “water of joy” in Italian. Sephora explains it as a “fresh aquatic fragrance,” as well as the official fragrance notes include mint, brown sugar, Italian lemon (better than other lemons, I suppose?), jasmine, peony, pink pepper as well as cedar.
Very refreshing…like taking a dip in a great body of water on a blazing hot day.
I likewise stopped to sniff one more Italian scent I’ve been loving lately, the new Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue Dreaming in Portofino ($50).
Like Aqua di Gioio, it whisks me away to a Mediterranean beach somewhere. With notes of citrus accord, pink pepper, geranium, amber as well as patchouli, I believe it’s aأعمق بت، والمسكير وكذلك الحسية من دي جيويو، كما لو كانت أكوا دي غيويا الشاطئ يوما، فإن الحلم في بورتوفينو سيكون الشاطئ في الليل.
