Cosmetic Case of the Mondays: Too Faced Sweethearts Perfect Flush Blush

I hope everyone had a terrific weekend!  I had a very impromptu trip to NYC to spend some time with Jared, and yes…Nemo.  Despite it being very chilly for this SoFla gal, we had a great time galavanting around in the snow, visiting with friends, and we were even able to help celebrate our friends Jessie and Ian’s engagement (congrats again!!).

So now that we’re just days away from V-Day, I figured it was the perfect time to test out the most adorable new blush on the market, Too Faced Sweethearts Perfect Flush Blush.  This trio of blushes includes rose, coral, and peach tones are jammed together inside a heart shaped box (cue to your ’93 Nirvana album), and blend together to accomplish the sweetest flushed look, or to use separately.  And since these are baked blushes, they are offer a subtle glow when used sparingly or are buildable for more intensity.

How sweet?!

Tonik, The Human Dog

So I was on the phone with Jared last night while he was away in Tallahassee and out of nowhere I hear him hysterically laughing.  I asked him what was so funny and he said for me to check my email immediately.  There I see a link to Tonik, Dog With ‘Human Face‘, or as I have renamed him Tonik, The Human Dog.  Just take a look at the Poodle-Shih Tzu mix from Mishawaka, Ind. who’s up for adoption.

Tonik

Is he not the funniest thing in the world?  Ok, borderline creepy, but hysterical nonetheless.

Hope you enjoyed the laugh!

Humpday Helper: V-Day Gift for Your Guy

Looking for a great Valentine’s Day gift for the man in your life, but not sure what?  Wish you could think of something creative and yet manly at the same time?  Are you still dying over the Lacquerous post from yesterday and trying to wrap your head around a nail polish rental company?  Well get ready to combine both thoughts and sign your man up for FreshNeck as the perfect V-Day gift!

FreshNeck

What’s FreshNeck you ask?  Well the men finally get to benefit with this subscription-based men’s accessories exchange service that lets you rent ties, bow ties, pocket squares, cufflinks, and tie bars for a membership fee starting at just $15!  It was originally launched back in December 2012 by David Goldberg (seen in picture above), now 31, so that men can focus on their appearance and accessorizing just as much as the ladies, but without breaking the bank.  Think about how many times you’re nagging your guy about what he’s going to wear to the next wedding you two are attending or how you hear him complaining that he needs more ties for work.  Now you can help him look sharp while saving!

FreshNeck My Closet

How it works: Similar to Netflix, FreshNeck allows you to access 3 (or more) items of your choice and the items are mailed directly to your door, which you can keep until you wish.  When you’re ready for something new, simply mail back the items in the pre-paid, pre-addressed envelope, and wait for your fresh duds to arrive.  No late fees ever!

FreshNeck Tie Detail

FreshNeck Features:

- Reservations: If you need something specific for a special occassion (wedding, date, charity event), simply reserve it, and they will hold onto it until you are ready for it.

- Try-Before-You-Buy: Did he receive a lot of compliments on the tie he wore?  One click lets you keep it, for a discounted price.

- Recommendations: The entire Collection is linked, so they’ll help you select a pocket square or cuff links to pair with that beautiful tie.  Brilliant.

- Incredible Inventory: They feature well-known national brands like Hermes, Prada, Versace, Brooks Bros, Vineyard Vines, Rag & Bone, etc.  They also reserve some spots for some up-and-comers you may not yet know, often handcrafted in the USA.

So do you not think this is the coolest gift for your guy??  I certainly do!  And for the men that read my blog (I know you’re out there!) this could be a great thing to purchase for yourself or feel free to forward this to your gal.  As if it couldn’t get better, Live Love Lipstick readers can take advantage of a special 25% off the first month of any plan with promo code LLL25

Lacquerous

So there’s a new online company out there that has definitely sparked my interest!  It’s called Lacquerous, and it’s basically Netflix for nail polish.  Have I sparked your interest yet too??

How it works: Request a membership from Lacquerous.com and once you granted membership you then select nail polishes to your Lust List, which will help the masterminds behind the company figured out what you like.  Then for just $18 a month, you will receive your choice of three designer nail polishes.  Use them at the salon or at home, and once you’ve used them you can ship them back (via your pre-paid packaging they arrived in) and wait for your next three to arrive!  Fallen in love with your color?  Some are even available for sale!

Choose from the following brands to get your paws looking lust worthy and red carpet ready: Chanel, Dior, Tom Ford, Dolce & Gabbana,  MAC, Deborah Lippmann, NARS, and Butter London!

Lacquerous

Request your membership for the new cool club in town today!
