I’m a sucker for the whole ‘kit’ thing, and I’ve always been an even bigger sucker for ‘gifts with purchase’ so when I got this mailer from Sephora.com in the box, I was instantly intrigued. Here is the rundown:

Flawless Face Kit ($159 Value) $65.00

What it is:
A set of products designed for a professional-looking makeup application.

What it does:
Laura Mercier Flawless Face Kit combines all of the essential formulas and tools needed to create a flawless face into one convenient travel-size zippered case. Prime, moisturize, and cover up your way to complexion perfection. It’s dermatologist-tested.

What else you need to know:
Available exclusively at Sephora, each bag contains a 1.0 oz Foundation Primer (Step 1), a 1.0 oz Tinted Moisturizer (Step 2), a 0.21 oz Undercover Pot plus Translucent Loose Setting Powder (Step 3 and 4), a Secret Camouflage Brush, a Camouflage Powder Brush, a Velour Puff, and an egg-shaped Sponge. Plus if you enter code “BACKSTAGE” at checkout, you will get a free Brown shimmerstick.

On the downside, it’s only good online at Sephora.com and comes in only 2 colors: “Nude” and “Sand” which is kind of a bummer if you are like me and have no idea if either one of those will match. But if you’re a repeat Mercier user, you probably know which you are and can get some good freebies!

greetings fellow beauts…

I received this email below regarding e.l.f. products. I checked it out and tis legit gals! I’ve never used this product and I am curious to know if it’s any good, especially if Nordstroms is taking it over. Any of our Spa-View”ers” out there try it? Let me know the verdict, if anything…the brushes might be a good deal. So have fun and stock up without breaking the bank for a change on beauty products. Check it!

Nordstrom is changing the logo on their makeup, so they’re sellingeverything that says “e.l.f.” for $1!!! (you still have to pay shipping, but it’s SO worth it!!) The make-up line E.L.F. ( Eyes, Lips, and Face) has been bought out by Nordstrom and will be re-packaged with the Nordstrom name on it. They are getting rid of all the make-up in ELF packaging.

However, even with that charge it’s cheaper than buying make-up anywhere else and it is fun to try things when you don’t have to worry about the cost! They have powder, mascara, brushes, nail polish, you name it ..
Just thought I’d pass along the good deal. Also, if you use the coupon code: CAROLINA you will get $ off your purchase.

happy beautyfying…Chastity

I was a late bloomer to the whole concept of high thread count sheets/linens, but seriously, the thread count number completely changed my life. Honest! I’ve noticed that the temperature of my body regulation is much more comfortable, those weird creases that I used to get in the morning are gone, and every time the sheets are laundered, they actually get softer. Go Figure.

I think I must have been in my last year in college when one of my best buddies B’s mom Sharon schooled me on the whole thread count phenom, and I just recently introduced a younger friend of mine to the major importance of investing in at least 2 good sets.

Here’s the best part though - you can find super great deals on 600+ count sheets online, as well as offline at places like Marshall’s, TJMaxx or maybe Ross if you are lucky. Tuesday Morning also has some really good deals on luxury linens for a fraction of a price - I recently came up on a pair of Kate Spade European sham covers for less than 2 bucks each! I also buy my linens from Overstock.com and sometimes SmartBargains.com for under $40 per set.

Oh Philosophy…you are going to make me eat my words, aren’t you? Blah. Ok so even though I totally hated the “Falling in Love’ line from Philosophy, I kind of am digging the skincare stuff. Thanks to some more fabulous swaps with the women at MakeUpAlley.com, I’ve managed to score some Hope in a Jar, which go figure, is probably my favorite face cream ever. It’s super light, but super moisturizing and has just the teeny-tiniest of sheen that makes your face appear as if it is dewey, even though you totally know it’s not. I just might have to actually dig in my pockets and buy a jar when this tester one runs out. Now you know it’s the bomb when you will actually bookmark the official site - which btw is offering free shipping on orders over $75 (doesn’t sephora offer free shipping over $50? Just asking…).

Anyway, for now, yes…there is hope in a jar in my powder room.

You know those super cute metallic studded hobo bags on all the celebs last season with the skull design? That was the doing of Alexander McQueen, the Tim Burton of the Fashion industry if you will (credit. moi of course). McQueen for MAC is a super cute shocking bright turquoisy, lime & sapphire type blue with fleshy toned lips to brighten your dreary fall day - I cheated and bought the Loreal HIP knockoff color pots in lieu of the MAC prices (yea, I got 6 colors in the same shade for under 20 bucks) BUT here is your chance, and mine, to actually WIN the authentic stuff! It includes limited edition shadows, lippy, mineralize face, eyeliners and a cute McQueen patent leather case with the skull design on it sponsored by Net-A-Porter (who finally invested in a fast server - thank GOD). Anyway, click here to enter - contest ends Dec 8, but hopefully the trend will not be out of style by then! Click here to enter and GOOD LUCK!

Yay! I loooove this time of year - the markets are full of pumpkin stuff all over the place, the Pumpkin Spice Latte is back at Starbucks (I had one yesterday before I started JC officially lol) and there are all kinds of yummy scented pumpkin products up for grabs.

I had a pumpkin facial last season at Burke William’s spa and they sent me home with a pumpkin enzyme peel mask which was pretty good. Pumpkin is rich in vitamins A, C and zinc and will get you glowing in a good way. I’ve got a coupon code for Spa-View readers to save 15% from Greatskin.com just use coupon code HW15 at checkout on any pumpkin products - and please send in your review for your favorite pumpkin stash!

“An evening fragrance of soft white flowers“…and I’m just totally asking, but didn’t I read somewhere that JLo is all divalicious about her dressing room needing to have fresh white flowers? Maybe I am mistaken, but it sounds kind of familiar.

Anyway, Here is my review plain and simple: I don’t like it, it totally doesn’t last and I’m really sad because I super love Jennifer Lopez, but sofar, I have swapped out both Glow and now I am about to put Still up for swap. Come on Jenny Lo-Lo make a nice refined scent to reflect your glamorous image that you have transitioned into so nicely! Viva Mujer!

Anyway, I saw this on FragranceNet.com for under $25 bucks if you don’t want to listen to me and try it out for yourself
