Creme de Pistache by Laura Mercier

Laura Mercier is an amazing brand that cover makeup , skincare , bath and body , everything with a twist of elegance yet simple and chic. Recently I decided I wanted to give my hands a little treat so I reached for Laura Mercier Creme de Pistache Hand Creme which is a deep penetrating cream that makes your hands feel super velvety ( not greasy ) soft and smooth as well a very very subtle yet well concentrated scent of pistachio made out of pistachio nuts , almods , praline and hazelnut with freshly whipped cream , overall a dessert for your hands. Creme de Pistache contains grape and olive oil to ensure moisture as well as soy proteins which are rich in amino acids to help repair hands hammered by the sun , cold or just a nice treat. 

This hand creme is formulated for all skin types and runs on the high price point as its a "high'end" brand , running at 2oz. for $15.00 YEAH very pricey but well worth it , its not a MUST HAVE just a treat.

You can find Creme de Pistache HERE or at any Macys that carries Laura Mercier cosmetics.

The packaging is very very nice and shiny , kinda that metallic'e finish 

very nice and sturdy

is actually the 1st time I ever see the "pumping" or "pouring" like this , instead of opening and squeezing out .....

you twist open and squeeze out

very nice concept nice and chic just like the rest of the brand 

Laura Mercier

The 1st time ever to shop Laura Mercier an what attracted me to this lady ?? YES youre rite NAIL POLISH ! I saw the review of Laura Mercier new collection from Youtuber ( Raeviewer ) and OmG I just had to have the nail polishes and a lip-pot-stain lol !!! Weeeel here are myyyy goodies

Luscious is a super cute jelly , that reaches full opacity with 3 coats ( for me ) but most of you guys can pull it off with maybe 2. Its a raspberry color with no glitter or shine to it :) very very flattering on any skin tone.

Cabana is the perfect coral not to orange not to red or falling into a pink , very very nice and brightening 

soft and delicate color always makes the hands look more femenine and the fingers appear to be longer :) 

This the lip-pot-stain lol ! is a lip stain in a potted lipgloss form and it does lasts a while on the lip and it doesnt have that sticky feeling. As far as the color , I dont consider it being a "coral" yet a very subtle red with hint of gold sparkle in it.

The Laura Mercier's girl was super nice to me and gave me some samples that so far so gooood I love them !! 

The clenser/exfoliator and the repair serum are the BOMB ! I havent yet tried the tinted moisturizer but as soon as I do Ill post my opinion on it :) 

Talking about packaging well is very clean and sleek nothing over the top , yet not being cheap.

Have a GR8 Wednesday !! week's almost over hang in there ! 

SEPHORA MICRO HAUL

Ok girlies so I have oily skin, and as you may or may not know its a pain in the bootey ! to keep your makeup looking FAV. and in tip-top shape , so not alone I have oily skin , its really sensitive as well , I have tried Clinique pressed powder ( broke me out ) , Sephora brand ( broke me out ) , Lancome ( broke me out ) and dont get me wrong the quality on all those products its AMAZING its just that they dont work it out with my face thats it. 

The last powder I was using was Neutrogena clear skin or something like that powder its not omg just came out today but its recent. WOW that thing killed my face , and I had hear so many good comments about it that I kept using fooling myself with the so awful lie " it gets worst b4 it gets better " thats a TOTAL LIE ! if it works it works period ! 

Well I did all my research and was brought down to 2 products, one was 

MAKEUP FOREVER HD SETTING POWDER 

I did use it but I hated it , maybe Im not a loose powder kinda gal but I had to return it , and you know it takes real hate to go and return something.

The quality was not bad just average , I typical CASPER white powder and I did not enjoy the look it had on my face. 

this is a tiny swatch on my hand it looks ghostly ! lol ! 

My product #2 was Laura Mercier translucent shine control pressed powder

This stuff is soo good and it sticks true to the words on the packaging, its translucent BUT of course like any translucent powder if you over apply it you will end up looking like Caspers momma.

I love that fact that my face stays shine free, its amazing ! 

perfect for setting liquid foundation and for touchups 

The packaging is really Laure Mercier like, pretty classy.

These were my freebies they were the body shop vitamin E moisture cream.

I hope that this helps you in case youre on the lookout for a setting powder.
