Thé S’il Vous Plaît!! BELLOCQ
Tea is one of my favorite things. I love drinking Chai to perk me up, Chamomile to help me wind down at night and anything with Jasmine just because I can SO…while going through this month’s Women’s Health I saw an ad for BELLOCQ and FELL IN LOVE.

Goddess Beauty: Winter Essentials
Embryolisse Lait- Crème Concentré
I only need a TINY bit of this but it makes my skin look and feel great especially for those chilly mornings. I get mine from RICKYS NYC and you can find it here and here.
Ben Nye Blue Neutralizer in # 3
For my lovely dark circles. I’m don’t really like wearing foundation every day (never mind I always end up buying a new one every season…) but I like to use this to correct the darkness under my eyes. It makes me look more awake instantly. I love the Bobbi Brown correctors in Dark Bisque and Dark Peach but this Ben Nye one works just as well and is half the price. Find Ben Nye corrector here.
Wet N Wild Megashield Lipcolor Bare-ly Legal 364S
This very loved (can you tell?) gem is half lipstick half lip balm and all awesome. It keeps my lips moisturized and adds a nice hint of color. I get mine at CVS. Find it here.
Estee Lauder Sumptuous Bold Volume Lifting Mascara
I used drugstore mascara for years and I usually love any from Maybelline but they dry out so quickly. I love the look I get with this Estee Lauder and it lasts at least 6 months (I’m pretty sure after 6 months you’re supposed to change them anyway). I usually buy mine at Macy’s you can also get it here.
Loreal Infallible Lacquer Liner in Expresso
When I feel like being more dramatic I add some of my favorite liner to elongate my eyes and give them a more almond shape. The brush pictured here is a random nail art brush I got at a beauty supply when I still lived in NYC. For a drugstore eyeliner this stuff stays put even in this crazy Miami weather.

Goddess Things: Henna…..Fail
Now….this is not the beautiful henna I did today with the paste I mixed yesterday. Pictured above is henna from my very first attempt at henna in 2010. Today was a disaster 🙁 it was the first time I was using a cone, my own homemade cone (I only used the bottles with the metal tips before) and…..it did not go as planned. I did manage to get one design on my feet but I’m too ashamed to show it lol..so…it’s back to the drawing board. I’m thinking of ordering more henna here and trying it again. Maybe I’ll re-watch some of these awesome tutorials like this and this that I found this weekend too…..
