Make a Brilliant Beauty Statement This Fall with TARINA TARANTINO!


Celebrities, fashion stylists, and editors across the globe know Tarina Tarantino as the haute designer of whimsically sophisticated jewelry for girls of all ages. This fuchsia-tressed former makeup artist shares her passion for self-expression and playfulness with a complete cosmetics collection, available only at Sephora. It’s makeup that makes a statement — like any great accessory would.

Tarina Tarantino’s beauty line was inspired by the richness and radiance of her own handcrafted jewelry, and this fall, the entire line is taking a daring turn with a bold new look that brings it to a whole new level. Sleek graphite-colored packaging, jewel tone accents, illustrations of iconic Tarina designs and new must-have palettes add a multi-faceted dimension to the line. The luxe, long-lasting formulas remain the same, luxuriously infused with crushed pearl, micronized diamond powder and finely milled gemstones to reflect the brilliance, luminosity and sophistication of a jewel.

In celebration of Tarina Tarantino Beauty’s new look, six Jewel Shadow Palettes will premiere this fall. These gorgeous vanity compacts each feature five coordinating eyeshadows with shimmering gemstone powders and a high intensity, long-wear formula that leaves your eyes sparkling like jewels. The glamorous oval shape of the compact also makes it easier to see the whole surface of your face when applying your makeup on the go. Choose from: Wonderful (shimmery forest greens, golds and browns), Lovely (pearlized grays, silvers and creams with matte black), Magical (pearlized pinks, taupes and plums), Delightful (pearlized beiges and pinks with matte chocolate brown), Fantastical (pearlized mauves, creams and plums, and Dreamy (pearlized coppers and golds with black with gold sparkle).

Chaz Dean WEN Fall Ginger Pumpkin Cleansing Conditioner Review


Fall Ginger Pumpkin Cleansing Conditioner ($32) perfectly captures the essence of Autumn with deeply rich scents of pumpkin, vanilla, clove, ginger, and cinnamon. This limited edition blend eliminates the use of stripping agents, detergents, harsh chemicals, and sodium lauryl/laureth sulfates so that your hair and scalp maintain their healthy, natural essential oils.

In the past, I've heard nothing but good news about the WEN Haircare products, but never bought into the hype until I recently had the opportunity to try out one of their products myself! I love the smell of pumpkin, but I've never tried any pumpkin hair products before. I'm hoping that they don't make this particular scent a seasonal product, because it smells too darn good! Sadly, the scent doesn't linger on throughout the day. I like that this cleansing conditioner gives my scalp a nice, tingly feeling. It also makes my hair unbelievably soft, shiny, and manageable. Worth the splurge!

Clarins Instant Liner Review


I couldn't imagine myself being without a good liquid eye-liner since it's the staple product to almost every look of mine. Therefore, I have tried many! Sadly, I only have a few favorites since it's hard to find a good one. Luckily, the Clarins Instant Liner ($26) has become one of my new favorites. I generally apply it on in the mornings before taking my son to school. By the time the day is about over, it almost looks just as good as when I first applied it on! The soft, foam applicator enables you create a smooth, uninterrupted line. Also, it dries rather quickly, which I find is a plus!
