Kure Bazaar Nail Polish

Kure Bazaar Nail Polish is the first nail polish I've ever found that is eco-friendly and non-toxic! Their formula is up to 85% natural, based on wood pulp, cotton, wheat, potatoes and corn. The philosophy of Kure Bazaar is to create nail polish that will preserve the vitality of nails so that they stay smooth, strong, and healthy.  This sounded fantastic to me since I typically only leave my nail polish on for a few days for fear of yellowing or damaging my nails. I was impressed to find that Kure Bazaar has been featured in many well-known magazines in the U.S. and Europe (Vogue, Cosmopolitan, and Elle, just to name a few). 

Kure Bazaar offers a nice rainbow of colors, which makes it hard for me to choose which colors I like best! For me, this nail polish would be a "pamper me" item that I would splurge on as something special, as it is $16 for a 0.34 fl.Oz. bottle. I tried a fun summer color called Bohemian and was impressed with how quickly it dried. After two coats, I felt like I had the solid look I was going for--ultra shiny! 

Although Kure Bazzar is Paris-based, their products can be found in the United States! Visit these participating stores or check them out online at the site below.

Molecule Safari Sidewinder Cargo Skirt

I have been on the hunt for a versatile summer skirt this season and I have finally hit the jackpot! The Molecule Safari Sidewinder Cargo Skirt is fabulous. The idea behind their clothing line is to create clothes that are built for living without sacrificing style. I'm usually hesitant to order skirts and shorts online because I almost always need to try things on to know whether they are going to fit properly, especially length-wise. However, I gave it a try. I'd like to give a big thank you to Molecule.Asia for creating a skirt that is stylish AND long enough to be comfortable throughout any kind of day!

This skirt has a lot going for it, so allow me to give the highlights. The fabric is strong quality made with double stitched seams, which allows a little stretch to it (my hips say thanks for that) and is easily machine washable/tumble dry friendly.The sides of the skirt have flexi-zippers that can be adjusted for style or function, along with zipper pockets to keep things safe. The button pockets on the back of the skirt are flattering and create the right amount of shape without over-doing it. I especially love that I can dress it up with a cute top, sleek belt, and sandals, or create a more functional look for an active day with a tank top and flip flops. 

I wasn't quite confident on the waist size, but I ended up ordering the small because I was afraid the medium would be too big. (There's a 4 inch waist jump from S to M.) The skirt sits near my natural waist just as they said it would if you order your normal size, as a snug fit. It's definitely snug, but not in an uncomfortable way. They do recommend that you order one waist size up from your your usual so that the skirt sits down nearer to the hips for the most flattering look. No matter which way you choose, you really can't go wrong. The Sidewinder Cargo Skirt is available in S-XL, with six different colors to choose from. The only suggestion I would give to improve this skirt is to add a size in between the 25 inch (S) and 29 inch(M), and make the 25 inch the XS. I love this skirt so much that I've already begun looking at their shorts line!

Kinerase Gentle Daily Cleanser

Quite a while back I had found pamphlets in my dermotologist's office for Kinerase products with Courteney Cox as the spokesperson. Her skin has always looked flawless and I'd been intrigued with the product line, but was hesitant to spend the money. I recently decided to go for it and ordered Kinerase Gentle Daily Cleanser through SkinCareRX.com as a start. For my sensitive skin, my first priority has always been an effective facial cleanser.

Kinerase Gentle Daily Cleanser is described as effective for all skin types and free of skin-stripping ingredients that won't leave your skin red in the face. The directions say to pump twice and massage it onto damp skin for two minutes before rinsing off. I was a bit skeptical as to how my skin was going to react because it is so creamy looking. Generally, creamier cleansers aren't strong enough to prevent breakouts on my acne-prone skin. I've been using it for ten days and I am pleasantly surprised so far. My skin looks and feels clean without over-drying. It is incredibly soft and has a healthier look to it. What I am most impressed with, and frankly surprised about, is how moisturized it makes my skin feel without feeling greasy or heavy. It is also great at getting eye makeup off easily, especially my mascara.

Key ingredients:

Green Tea extract to soothe and calm all skin types and fight free radical damage; Citric Acid to act as a gently exfoliating antioxidant

Other Ingredients:

Water, sodium lauryl sulfate, cocamide DEA, cocamidopropyl betaine, glycol stearate, sodium laureth sulfate, camellia sinensis leaf extract, glycerin, citric acid, magnesium aluminum silicate, sodium chloride, diazolidinyl urea, iodopropynyl butylcarbamate
