On location…where are YOU headed for Spring Break?
For most of the country, warm weather is just around the corner and even if the snow is taking its sweet time to thaw, spring break season is rife with opportunities to grab some Vitamin D in more tropic environs. Consequently, this post feature one of my favorite go-to makeup looks for times with sun and salt water abound. I also am sharing a glimpse sales I’m shopping!
Kindly scroll on for more details, swatches and images of the products in action, as well as my weekend sale shopping guide and the Bottom Line…
The FOTD products.
// THE PRODUCTS // Even skin with a rosy, dewy glow, burnished lids and pinky nude lips…this look can be achieved in under 10 minutes and lasts the day, even in the warmest, most humid weather.
*Sisley-Paris Concealer #3 (reviewed HERE): I used a touch in my under eye region and appreciate that this crease-resistant formula also contains skincare benefits.
*Sappho Bronze Goddess Compact (reviewed HERE): Impressive clean ingredients meet stunning color payoff in a true brown tone that will flatter a spectrum of skin tones.
*Koh Gen Do Gloss Film Powder #123 (reviewed HERE): I use this silky powder daily to set and touch up…it truly offers perfecting coverage without any sign of a powder finish.
Hourglass Scattered Light Glitter Eye Shadow in Foil (reviewed HERE): I tapped just a smidge of this ultra-reflective, true gold hue on the center of my upper eye lids; it delivers just the right amount of warm light to the look.
Tom Ford Fiber Brow Gel in Chestnut: Forever on my brows to add volume, depth and hold, I have gone through at least 4 tubes of this wonder formula and have a 5th on backup…don’t want to be without this ever.
Dior Rouge Dior Lip Ink in 325 Tender: I was intrigued by the liquid pen vibe of this liner and would classify it as a precision stain. Tender is a resplendent brown nude that defines the lip line without looking conspicuous, making it the quintessential companion to pinky nude lip color.
*Nude Envie Lipstick in Mesmerize (reviewed HERE): I adore this peachy pink nude lipstick from the venerable Nude Envie line. The shade has formidable color payoff and a creamy finish that makes lips look plush and healthy.
Dior Lip Maximizer in Pink Holographic: I used a mix of this plumping shade with iridescent pink undertones and the gloss below to deliver a serious wash of shine.
Dior Ultra Gloss in Nude: More pink than its name implies, this milky gloss has no shimmer but plenty of reflective potential…brilliant!

// STYLE NOTES // Underwire bikini, relaxed cotton button-down, cutoffs and really great pair of sandals…what else does one need on the beach?
Vince Westport Sandals: I purchase these on a whim and am so glad I did…they are fresh and casual and extremely comfortable and the platform heel gives a bit of height. They run true to size in my experience; I got mine in a size 7.
Underwire Bikini: I love this update on a traditional two piece…the wires offer support and a sophisticated edge. Additional options HERE and HERE
