Last week was my birthday and when we got home from our trip on Saturday, my sister Teresa (who was watching our house and Chief) had all these breakthrough beauty products wrapped and waiting for me to open.
So thoughtful! And they are all things she uses and loves.
There are some affiliate links. Thank you!
1. Lighted Travel Makeup Mirror, 1x/10x Magnification
I could have used this on the trip…really makes those stray facial hairs show up :/ and I love that it’s rechargeable.
- Two-sided 1x/10x magnification is ideal for applying makeup, tweezing, or blemish control
- Daylight LED closely simulates natural sunlight
- Large 5 inch distortion-free view and slim for packing
- Long-lasting LED lightbulbs
2. TELETIES – Medium Flat Square Hair Clip
Teresa let me borrow hers for the airplane ride to Paris (since she knew I would have to sleep). So it was thoughtful of her to give me two in light and dark tortoiseshell. They will be good for yoga (especially lying down) and driving in the golf cart, too.
3. BIODANCE Bio-Collagen Real Deep Face Mask
I can’t wait to use this Hydrating Overnight Hydrogel Mask. Teresa says her skin is plumper after using it overnight.
4. Grande Cosmetics Grande BROW Brow Enhancing Serum
My eyebrows are getting thinner. This Brow Serum With Vitamins, Peptides, Antioxidants, Amino Acids should help!
5. Tarte Concealer
This works well on my dark circles (especially being jet-lagged right now). She gave me the travel size and I will buy it again.
6. Colorful Pajamas In A Matching Gift Box
Not exactly a “beauty product” but how sweet that Teresa gave me the same PJs she has. They come in a cute gift box, too.
Really Teresa, you overdid it! I love everything.
I found the perfect Hermes scarf for her in Paris as a gift for “holding down the fort.” It’s in the colors she wears. Hope she sends a photo of her in it soon.
She went back to San Diego yesterday but thankfully we will be together in California for Thanksgiving.
Do YOU have any breakthrough beauty products that you’d like to share?
Must be wonderful to have a sister! Love those pj’s! Are there retailers in Paris who sell Hermes or do must you go to the Hermes store? Do you have other sources you like in Paris for scarves?
It would have been fun to buy the scarf at the beautiful Hermes shop on St Honore but it was so easy to get it tax free at the airport shop.
Hi Mary Ann,
Thank you so very much for sharing your holidays.
Your sister is a sweetheart to be so generous. Also to gift her a gorgeous scarf from Hermes from Paris must had felt so meaning full. You are blessed to have such an in meshed family.
Thanks, Kathy.
Love it all! I want those gorgeous pjs!
I uses Alleyoop mascara it’s tubing so it stays on but is easy to take off with warm water. I also use a lash growth serum that is prescription. Together they really highlight my eyes which are my best feature.
I have to try that mascara!
How nice!
Ooohh, I’ll watch Chief in exchange for an Hermès!!
Ha! She even has to take him to the vet when he pulled out his back doing his zoomies.
Love those PJ’s!! Does Teresa need another sister?
Sure, Cindy!
What a generous & thoughtful sister! Have always wished I had a sister! Enjoy!
Teresa is the best 🙂
