Holiday Party Prep 101



Yule-time soirees offer the perfect opportunity to glam it up and experiment with new fun make up looks. And AVON is, as always, a fantastic resource for quality, affordable products that pack a mean beauty punch.

True Color Eyeshadow Quad in Metal Eyes: I love eyeshadow kits that tell you where to apply the color- a simple aspect that really helps yield stellar results. The mix of silvers and golds in this kit is also great for creating your own look. I am super into the sparkly white Snowglobe highlighter and the perfect moody pewter, Night Star.


True Color Eyeshadow Single in Bronze Luster: Bronze is so rich on the eyes and a unique take on the more traditionally festive silver and golds. It's also a great choice to make your green or blue eyes really pop.


Ultra Color Lip Crayon in Reddy for Me: Although I'm not a lipstick/lip color person, this chubby crayon option was a breeze to put on, left a nice pop of gold-flecked color, and lasted quite a while.


SuperShock Gel Eye Liner Pencil in BlackOut: Ever since Sephora SO rudely messed with their eye liner formula and thusly ruined my LIFE, I have been on the hunt for a new, intense, long lasting, black eye liner. And this stuff is the JAM. I love everything about it—it goes on smooth, the color is awesomely inky and it lasts even when applied to the inner waterline. Oh, but you know what I don't love? The fact that I carried it with me so often that I lost it! Arghdsdfjvldfjsdv!

AVON products can be found through your local representative or online at avon.com

Dope Soap


Soap and Paper Factory Bella Collection is the lovely little swag that stocking stuffers and hostess gifts are made of.

Now available exclusively at Anthropologie, these wholesome indulgences for hands and home are hand-crafted by founders Shannon and Lisa. They boast all-natural ingredients and adorable, individually designed packaging.

The three lush fragrance options Bella, Midnight, and Close are guaranteed to please even the most discerning noses. I was given Midnight—fresh cut gardenia mixed with calming jasmine. SOOOO very good. And the adorably boho label is almost too cute to destroy by opening!

Stock up on these fab soaps and candles and you'll surely be the hit of the holiday season!
