Beauty Contest

Mariobadescu is having a contest for acne suffers. Five winners will receive a consultation with one of the company's skin specialists and a customized regimen of Mario Badescu Skin Care products.

I've been using MB's acne line. I like the company's acne facial cleanser and glycolic cleanser. Good stuff. I also recommend their masks. Great products, reasonable prices.

A visit to Space NK


Tried a fun lip crayon today from Poppy King, Lipstick Queen.
Sadly I am not the lipstick queen.
Had lunch with a friend near 72nd street so I decided to pop into Space NK on Columbus Avenue. I really liked the crayon called mystery. It looks like a deep plum. But it is sheer and rich at the same time. A very pretty purple.
But, it was sold out.
Next time.

I also tried this Rachel Zoe-endorsed product called Glam Balm (Rodial). Very interesting product. It's supposed to give an instant lift to face and lips. But it also helps heal cracked feet -- so says the salesgirl. It felt wonderful on the lips. Very moisturizing. My lips felt well-protected. But I could not bring myself to purchase it because it was so expensive!

Later this week look for a post about Mario Badescu products. I'm using their Acne cleanser religiously -- well, sort of.
