Banner Day in Beauty: L'Oreal Bare Natural Mineral-Enriched Eyeliner


Girls, it was a banner day in beauty here at the SPOT. First we finally tried out this lovely new earth-friendly eyeliner from L'Oreal, then we got the most lovely sponsor for a beauty event we are planning, and then at dinner my eyeliner actually turned heads. Kid you not.

L'Oreal's new Bare Naturale Eyeliner is super easy to apply, precise, and gentle on the most sensitive eyelids (mine puff up at the slightest mention of chemicals.) It didn't smudge on this the hottest southern summer day, and came off easily with my lovely Tammy Fender Cleanser-turned-eye-makeup-remover.

All three shades (Onyx, Slate, & Cocoa) are preservative, talc and fragrance free. These easily wielded wands are also made of 100% natural Gmelina wood. I've scoured the Internet and this pencil is sold out everywhere. Run to your local drugstore girls, run!

Put Some Juara in Your Jamu

Girls! All I wanted to do tonight was tell you about my new fave soap set from Juara. Then I stumbled upon this amazing video that elaborates on the awesomeness of the Indonesian Botanical phenomenon that is Juara.








Now that we've watched, and adored the video let's talk soap.




This adorable set of three gifts soaps comes with detachable quotation cards (below), and three superbly aromatic candlenut soaps. My love for Juara's candlenut line goes back a long way and this exotic soap set is the perfect introduction to the fabulousness of Indonesian skincare. With Candlenut oil, Rice Bran Oil, Shea Butter and Juara's signature scent, this is the perfect gift for you summer beach house hostesses.

Right now you can also enter the code "Earrings" at checkout and with a purchase of $50 you get a FAB pair of Earrings Free!!!! Enjoy!

Stunningly Beautiful Home Fragrance by Casa Di Francesca


This unique fragrance collection was inspired by Francesca, a true Renaissance woman, and one of the few women to tour Europe via the Grand Tour in the late 1600's. With Francesca's story as muse, Designer, Katie Borghese created Casa di Francesca, inspired by both the storied Italian lineage of her family, the Borghese's, and Katie's love of art and travel. Being a woman of Italian heritage who also loves art, designers and travel I couldn't help but hope this home fragrance would be everything it's rich history allowed for. And it is. Fantastic. The Wild Strawberry is currently blowing my mind and redefining the love I have for my own apartment home.

With a stunningly beautiful array of Italian-made diffuser fragrances, glass blown vases , and hand crafted accessories, Casa di Francesca makes otherworldly dreaminess a very reasonably priced element of home decor. Both the clear glass vases and the artful Murano Glass Diffuser Set, inspired by one of Francesca's most unforgettable memories - her trip to the beautiful island of Murano, house inspiring palletable scents. Reminiscent of the great glass artworks of Italy and famous throughout the world for the brilliance and ingenuity of its hand blown glass, the enchanting Murano vessels are simply beautiful. Enjoy!
