Peter Thomas Roth Radiance Oxygenating Serum

I’m immediately intrigued by anything that promises to restore my dull, uneven complexion to youthful brightness. Bonus points if it’s void of ingredients that could make my skin sun-sensitive!

This Radiance Oxygenating Treatment seems to fit the bill – its special mix of ingredients claims to brighten skin by addressing oxygen depletion rather than relying on sensitizing lighteners and harsh bleaches.

Peter Thomas Roth Radiance Oxygenating Serum is available from Sephora for $65.

Daily Style: Alicia + Olivia Print Scarf

Scarves are all over this summer. I’m totally loving the way such a simple addition can dress up a seemingly simple summer outfit.

This scarf’s unique print and fun fringe caught my eye – paired with a basic black shirt, the scarf would add a fun, boho-chic vibe perfect for bonfires or nights strolling along the boardwalk.

Alice + Olivia Print Scarf is available at Shopbop for $117.

Fall is my favorite favorite FAVORITE time of year, especially when I have amazing fall makeup collections to look forward to.

In this collection you’ll find:

NARS Fast Ride Lipstick – $24

This seemingly dark purple may intimidate, but swipe it across the lips and its true shade is revealed: a sheer mulberry. A color that falls somewhere between an intense plum wine stain, and a moody, deep violet.

NARS Tokaido Express – $16

This new hue is a cult classic in the making. Named after Japan’s most heavily frequented high-speed rail route, this lacquer is an opulent blackened amethyst doused with ultra-fine gold dust particles.

NARS Silk Road Duo Eyeshadow- $32

This new shade mirrors the hues from traditional damask fabrics. Classic meets edgy in this new duo — an icy pink is paired with a warm rose gold with golden flecks.

NARS Brumes Duo Eyeshadow- $32

These new hues perfectly capture the moody shades of a cool twilight sky. Brumes pairs a velvety matte charcoal with a sparkling, blue state for a smoky eye that is both confident and serene.

NARS Indian Summer Duo Eyeshadow- $32

A typical Indian summer comes as a surprise, balmy sunshine meets brisk fall. Swipe the summery, frosted champagne shimmer up to the brow, and line the upper lid with the autumnal deep, matte mustard for a striking look, appropriate for every season.

NARS Mekong Single Eyeshadow- $22

This is the perfect addition to the NARS woman’s adventurous palette. The intense, blackened espresso hue scattered with rose gold is a study in contrasts. Applied liberty across the lid it exudes a sexy attitude, or applied lightly, a simple, fashion-forward sophistication.

NARS FAll 2009 Makeup Collection is currently available online at NARScosmetics.com.
