Creme Cheek Color in Praline c/o Laura Mercier

Laura Mercier’s new Creme Cheek Color in Praline for the spring 2014 season is the perfect hue for the season’s color palette. This dark peachy color plays well with both orange hued lipsticks as well as shades of pink. It also works beautifully with neutral eye shadows and natural eye shadow looks. Perfection!

The creamy texture of Laura Mercier’s Creme Cheek Color is new for me. I normally use a powder cheek color with a brush. The creamy texture is amazing because it goes on smoothly and lasts all day without needing to be reapplied like the dry powders I am used to using. This is a huge plus for me! Also, despite the fact that it is a cream, Laura Mercier’s Creme Cheek Color does not clog my pores; it is lightweight! Love that!

I am now a huge fan of Laura Mercier’s Creme Cheek Color and look forwarding to trying new colors every season! For spring 2014, Praline is the perfect hue and will match both brightly colored apparel as well as pastels. I look forward to wearing Praline everyday this season!

Laura Mercier’s Creme Cheek Color in Praline is priced at $24  and can be found online here and here.

“Petal” by Dolce & Gabbana is a classic pink nail polish which is the perfect hue for the spring season. This medium pink shade plays well with spring 2014’s color palette of both bright colors and vivid pastels. “Petal” could be considered a neutral pink which makes it work with both cool and warm colors making it an easy color to wear everyday.

Dolce & Gabbana “Petal” is long lasting; I wore the nail polish with one base coat and two coats of color for seven days before seeing a chip. Love that! This is the perfect, classic pink nail polish to keep in one’s nail polish collection and enjoy for seasons come.

Dolce & Gabbana “Petal” nail polish is priced at $24 and can be found online here and here.
