    So Serious about Pink with @PinkHolidayLipstick

    There is an amazing lipstick brand called Pink Holiday. Founder Cara Nigro, who could never find the right shade of pink, decided to create a pink lipstick line with 21 perfect pink shades for all women.

    I wish I could stop at 21. I have a little obsession with pink lipsticks and I take it very seriously. After my stint in LA with FIDM beauty program, my collection and obsession became bigger than ever. Discovering a lot of then indie brands like Lime Crime and OCC opened the flood gates.

    My recent and newest addition to my ever growing collection is from Pink Holiday.  Unlike the neon vibrant, stain everything and your lips pink – these lipsticks give you just a hint of the lovely shade. Here are Seaside Splendor, Bermuda House and Capri Flower.

    They all have just a slight variation but I love them all – especially when you want to find the perfect pink.

    The Pink Holiday lipstick line is based on an extensive and yet very wearable palette of pinkshades for every woman, and transcends all ages and backgrounds. Personally influenced by jet-setting experiences and love of all things pink, the collection offers shades of from soft pale pinks, to neutral pinks, to vibrant, high energy pinks.

    Pink Holiday contains a high percentage of sugar Esther which helps create a film that avoids the loss of water, aiding in the protection against dryness. Our lipsticks contain moisturizing benefits to improve the condition of the skin barrier. The exclusive lipstick formula contains vegetal derived phospholipid, which improves moisture retention – high in emollient and softening properties. Our shades have been carefully formulated to ensure that they will be complimentary for women of all skin tones. Pink Holiday lipstick formulas contain a gellified system, which offers intensive moisture retention, superior comfort level and elevated adherence. All in such beautiful and glamorous packaging designed by the inimitable Chad Lavigne of Chad Lavigne LLC.

    A new candy store popped up in the neighborhood!  Stark white and full of delicious Swedish treats. The staff is friendly and the selection is amazing. I tried a little bit of every piece and my bill came to $3.68.  My favorite is the Cola Snake, the square marshmellows and coconut clusters.  I will be back for sure. *sweet & swedish*

    GMO free ingredients is very important and a great unique selling point. Being just down the street is also wonderful 🙂 Just to quench my candy cravings this summer. Sweet!

    I am obsessed.  Here is the new line up of New York based Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics for Spring Summer 2011.

    Wasabi green lips are super hot. This look is raw like yellowtail sashimi and one of my favorites from the new collection.


    Analog (Chocolate color) and Tone (Pinkish Vanilla) makes me think of desserts, milkshakes and ice cream cones. This summer is going to be so sexy!  Two-tone lips, twist cones and maybe a mixed boyfriend on the side.

    Interlace is the color of pure love.  My tanktop says it all. It’s a beautiful day. Jacob loves peach colored kisses all day.

    Orange you glad you came by?  This is Beta the pylon colored awesomeness.  Hits you like a bang bang bang

    Love makes you do crazy things. Red lipstick, late nights over the Brooklyn bridge and waking up with a smile on your face.

    I love OCC Liptars but you already knew that.

    Big thank you to OCC for fueling my obsessions.
