Regardless of whether I wake up with five minutes to get ready or 40, I never leave the house without curling my lashes. Why? Because it opens up my pretty peepers. I’ve been using my Chanel Eyelash Curler for quite some time but when this Georgie Ultimate Eyelash Curler showed up on my doorstep (c/o Neiman Marcus), I was willing to give it a try. To note, this lightweight high-precision curler is padded with organic blue chamomile to condition natural lashes. It gently curls all of your lashes (yes, even the tiniest lash) without crimping or pinching, thus making my morning routine a cinch. I never pre-heat my curler so my method is pretty straightforward: place the curler near the base of your lash line and gently squeeze for three to five seconds. I usually like to walk the curler up my lashes to help capture any strays for a unified look. Pair this with your favorite mascara and I promise, this powerful duo will make you look ten times more awake.
Winks by Georgie, Georgie Beauty Ultimate Eyelash Curler $18
What’s the holiday season without a trip to the big city? On Friday, I packed up my bags, stashed all the makeup I could grab and hit the road with my boyfriend and his family. Normally when I’m packing up my must-haves, I’m always playing “eenie meenie miny mo” with my overflowing vanity of makeup products. But thanks to a sweet gem I found in the swag bag from last week’s beauty and spa media event (you can check out my video recap here), I was able to fit all the makeup and jewelry I wanted. I was even more delighted when I realized this deluxe weekender Sonia Kashuk Cosmetic Bag, is available at Target and priced perfectly for just under $30. This weekender has small and large zip compartments, not to mention removable velcro in-and-out cases for simple cleaning. Talk about some bang for your buck!
The past two times I went to NYC this year, the majority of my time was spent hopping around the city for Fashion Week shows so this trip was a nice break from what I usually do. Check out my weekend activities in the big apple below!
