Hair: orofluido Beauty Elixir
Orofluido is a product of Spain and just as the name states, it is like "fluid gold". The three oils that make up Orofluido are Argan, Cyperus, and Linseed. The beauty elixir is alcohol free so you know it's good for dry hair types. I also use the Orofluido shine spray when I travel but unlike the elixir the spray does contain alcohol. Given a choice I prefer the elixir over the shine spray just because the elixir seems to instantly bond better with your hair. Trust me, your hair will not be able to live without Orofluido Beauty Elixir once you try it.

Scent: West Third Brand
Based out of Seattle, Washington, West Third Brand is an artisanal perfume company that creates their sinful and magical essences in small batches using old traditional methods. Vintage, Vintage, VINTAGE is key to their scents even down to the packaging which is what caught my attention to the product in the first place. Lately I have been infatuated with their Fleur En Fleur concoction. Fleur En Fleur is a Victorian scent with sweet floral hints of gardenias, orange blossoms layered with tuberose, jasmine, lily, rose, melon and wild musk. Victorian I said, well with all the craze going on with the Steampunk revolution I'm sure you can all find a following in this brand. Whatever your style forte may be, West Third Brand has a scent specially for you because their scents are as original as your lifestyle. One added convenience is that some of W3Bs scents are unisex which makes it great for you and your better half to share. Last month I took a trip to the National Stationery Show at the Javits Center in New York just so that I can catch up with the rest of the W3B line, and yes I was equally impressed and pleased with the quality of all their rich products. West Third Brand perfumes are long lasting. After a long day of work I find myself smelling just as fabulous as I did in the morning.

Skin: Physicians Formula 'Mineral Wear' Airbrushing Pressed powder
I'm not exactly sure what the secret is behind Physician Formula's pressed powder but the airbrushed finish effect is incredible and definitely not an understatement. Maybe it's the special Kabuki buffing brush included in the package, maybe it's the fact that it is mineral vs. talc but whatever the secret is I feel like my make up has just been applied by a professional. For my naturally tanned skin I use the Creamy Natural shade which blends in perfectly with my skin tone. Even though the powder looks lighter than my skin tone it blends in perfectly. Now that I am hooked on this product, I can't wait to try out other products under this line. Physicians Formula 'Mineral Wear' Airbrushing Pressed Powder.
