Squeeworthy: Clinique’s Moisture Surge CC Cream

I can’t get enough of Clinique’s new moisture surge CC cream. It’s an instant complexion perfector designed to enhance skin’s natural radiance while leaving it hydrated and protected with SPF 30. I’ve been using it for the past week and it is my new favorite beauty product. Why? Well, my job requires me to drive all around the city of Miami working with children. That means a full face of makeup is just not practical, but at the same time, I want to look presentable. The CC cream helps neutralize my blotchy redness and leaves it more radiant and dewy (without looking greasy).  Plus, it keeps my ridiculously fair skin not only protected, but also healthy due to its antioxidants, such as Vitamin E.

But a picture is worth a thousand words, right? I decided to be fearless and post a picture of myself with a completely bare face right after a shower to illustrate how great the improvement was when I used CC cream;

Amazing, right? If you are as impressed as I am, mark your calendars ladies! This new product launches next month in April.

Melificent disclosure: Company provided me with the product in return for review above. However, all opinions are my own.

Lauren Shane for Vaunte

Vaunte is a great site where you can shop celebrity, stylists and celebrity stylists’ closets for a fraction of the original price. They just recently started a particularly amazing sale featuring Lauren Shane, a celebrity stylist and style blogger. Lauren started out as a PR assistant turned stylist at Diane Von Furstenberg, followed by a stint at E! as Giuliana Rancic’s wardrobe stylist. Yep, those are some chops.

And this is some closet. Which items would I snatch up?

1. State Stamp

I love sending snail mail, especially when it is adorned with special stickers and stamps. Receiving a package in the mail jumps up 10,000 more points when it is pretty to look at, so I am loving all over these state address stamps. And before you scoff at the asking price, know that they are each hand-lettered. Delicious.

What I Wore: Chunky Sweater

The hubs and I just can’t get enough of Bravo and all its ridiculously cheesy programming. Housewives, Matchmakers and just recently, Vanderpump Rules. It’s such a terrible trainwreck, but you cannot look away. Not even for a second. So, of course, today’s title line is an ode to the wonderfully douchey, Jax & the one thing we have in common: our love of a good chunky sweater.

Happy Hump Day: Sam Witwer

I love opening the floor to you guys to choose my hump day hotties because you always do a great job opening my eyes to new dudes. Just when I thought I had covered them all (impossible, right?), I am proved wrong. Sure, I may not like the US version of Being Human (I’m all UK, all the time), and my eyes may only be for one Aidan (Turner, that is), but I can agree with this choice. Sam Witwer, I think any girl worth her salt would choose you over Edward Cullen any day.
