My Current Obsessions

Heyyyy!!  Sorry to leave you all for so long! I took a little hiatus but I'm backkk!!  For my first day back I decided to feature some of my current obsessions!!  And trust me they're good ones, so grab a pad of paper to write down the info...and your wallet, because you're going to want all them all!! 

Starting off with beauty... 
I've got three things that will leave you feeling like a new, sexy woman. The first is by Glamglow. It's call Supercleanse and it is beyond amazing!!  It's a daily treatment cleanser that helps with problem skin, skin imperfections, and pore refining.  Even if you don't have any of these issues this cleanser is guaranteed to make your skin feel brand new!!  To use Supercleanse you apply 2-3 pumps on your fingertips and begin to massage gently over dry skin. Once applied, wet your hands and begin to rub in circular motions to create a foaming later, make sure to keep it away from your eyes.  Continue adding more water to your face and massage in a circular motion.  Then rinse off with warm water and pat dry.  Trust me your skin has never felt so good!!  I saw results after the first use, which is why I became obsessed with this product.  It's a new product from Glamglow and can be purchase at Sephora. It come in one size, 5oz, and costs $39.00.  It's a little pricey but totally worth it!!  To find the product just click on the embedded links located within this post under Superclean and Sephora and it will take you right to the gritty details, reviews, and purchase info.

My second beauty obsession is Yves Saint Laurent Volupte Tint-In-Oil.  It comes in eight shades.  I chose Cherry My Cherie.  I love it because it keeps my lips moisturized while providing the most beautiful tinted color.  The best part is it lasts all day, even through sipping on your favorite latte!! Now that's lasting power!!  You've heard of oil treatments for your face, now meet one for your lips. This is also found at Sephora.  It comes in a 0.2oz tube and costs $32.00.  It's a big pricey for lip tint gloss but a little goes a long way, and like I said, it has staying power, so it's totally worth the cost!! Just mentioned above, to find the product click on the embedded links located within this post under Yves Saint Laurent Volupte Tint-In-Oil and Sephora and it will take you to where you need to go.

My last beauty obsession is Tom Ford's Black Orchid perfume.  If you want to stop traffic this is your new signature scent!!  It's sexy, subtle and like nothing else you've ever smelled!! Its sultry woods and rich fruit accords help bring our your skin's natural perfume.  And the bottle is so sleek and sexy!! The best part is a little goes a long way!  One spray lasts all day!!  Like my other two obsessions, this is also found at Sephora.  It comes in three sizes: 1oz costs $75.00, the 1.7oz costs $112.00, and the 3.4oz costs $159.00.  Steep prices I know, but as I said, it has staying power.  I bought the 1.7oz about 6 months ago and still have quite a bit left.  It's a splurge but let's face it...you're worth it!!  To find this product do what you've done for the previous two products, click on the embedded links located within this post under Tom Ford's Black Orchid and Sephora.

Now on to my fashion obsession....

Meet Rue Gembon!  And to say I'm obsessed to sort of an understatement.  I got my first dose of Rue Gembon in my last Nina Garcia Quarterly box- a set of ear jacket earrings.  It was love at first site!!  I went to the site to see what else Rue Gembon had to offer, and well...one short month later I own over $600 worth of their products- from rings, to earrings, to bracelets and necklaces, I have it all. Well not actually all, there are a few pieces I have not bought yet but it's only a matter of time before those become mine as well!  See, obsessed!!  All day everyday my jewelry is Rue Gembon!  If you love jewelry, which I know you do, make sure to check out the Rue Gembon site (I've embedded the link throughout this post, under Rue Gembon and also each jewelry piece name).  Below are just a few of my new beauties...
On my wrist the Mae.  She is awesome!!  Her clasp is magnetic so it she's easy to put on, and though she looks like a bracelets stack (containing a few bracelets) she's an all in one- so you get the look of the stack without the annoyance of a stack-looking beautiful when you put it on but having all the bracelts run over the top of each other.  Mae retails for $52.00 but is currently on sale for $26.00 (which is 50% off)!!!  Rue Gembon jewelry goes quickly so head on over to the site and grab your Mae before it's too late!!!

My finger party features Fie, Polly and Morgan.  All are polished gunmetal- the new alternate to silver.  All of the rings are adjustable so you don't have to worry they won't fit or have to go through the trouble of guesstimating your size.  Unfortunately Morgan is sold out (the double bar on my middle finger) but make sure to check back to the site often because Rue Gembon frequently re-stocks their most popular sellout a.

 Fie is the midi-ring on my index finger.  She actually comes as a pair, but since I take my own photos I had to use my other hand to snap the picture, so her counterpart wasn't able to make it in the picture since I'm wearing it on my other hand.  The stone in the middle of Fie is an oval shaped crystal set in a minimal claw.  The materials of the ring are nickel and lead safe which is awesome (actually all their jewelry is nickel and lead safe so fear not!). 

The last lady to the finger party, but certainly not the least, is PollyPolly is a multi-finger ring which I am in LOVE with!!    Polly retails for $75.00.  The last time I checked the site it said "low stock" with regards to Polly so if you want your head over quickly! The crystals are set in a delicate pear shape design and like all their other pieces, adjustable to get the right fit for wherever on your hand you wish to wear it- some days I wear her on my ring and middle finger, sometimes I switch it up and wear her on my middle and index finger.  That's the great part about Rue Gembon jewelry, among other things, their versatility!!  Adjustable, timeless and able to be worn with your favorite white tee and jeans, or your sexiest bodycon dress for a night on the town.  To find any of these rings click on the embedded links within this post.

Before I end this post I thought I would tempt you with some more Rue Gembon- trust me there will be other features in future posts so you will get to see a lot more of my collection.  I couldn't leave without showing one of my favorite necklaces.....

Meet Kimberly!  Before I go on and sing Kimberly's praises I should probably point out that the girl in the picture is me and I am wearing Kimberly. I don't make cameos in my post pictures often; in fact I think this may be the first time, so I thought I should mention that. Ha Ha!! Ok, now that's settled on to Kimberly...
Kimberly retails for $60.00 but is currently on sale for $42.00 (30% off)!!  She a bit glam and a bit rebellious and totally a must have!! She is silver plated brass metal with a minimal brushed bar set over a silver link chain. She also has an adjustable lobster clasp. I have a few Rue Gembon necklaces but I must confess so far Kimberly is one of my favorites!! If you want a little Kimberly in your life too click on the embedded links within this post.  Last time I checked Kimberly was also in low stock so if you want to make her yours hurry!!
