Are the crazy winter temperatures driving you to think warmer, spring-like thoughts? March’s arrival looks promising — Daylight Savings Time less than two weeks away and spring starts Sunday, March 20th. Plus, Easter, St. Patty’s Day, and the Philadelphia Flower Show (this year’s theme being is the centennial of the National Park Service) are giving me spring fever.
Last weekend’s trip to New York City, the warm temperatures made me ready to shed my ole winter coat and kickstart spring with my new walking shoes. While in Manhattan, those glittery heels wouldn’t allow me to walk by Sephora. The store was calling my name to come in and explore the fresh spring beauty colors and products. I couldn’t resist!
No one needs to twist my arm to go into a beauty store especially Sephora or Bergdorf’s beauty floor.
I guess you can say I’m addicted to beauty. Because at Sephora, my beauty rewards status recently reached Very Important Beauty status! Woohoo!
Sephora had a plethora of facial masks to consider. Since my concern is my oily skin, I focused on those masks that offered relief to my adult acne prone-skin.
I’m really looking forward to trying Sephora’s Green Tea Eye mask. One of the first sign of aging are under the eyes, especially if you suffer from allergies like I do. The Bosnia Pore-Minimizing Hydrogel mask should be a perfect fix for my oily skin. The charcoal ingredient is great for drying up excess oil and calming down those sebaceous glands that seem to occasionally get out of whack.
I love to try new facial cleaning products. I still get my 6-8 week HydraFacials. However, my regular at home routine includes a great cleanser, Peter Thomas Roth 24K Gold Pure Luxury Cleansing Butter. So far, my skin is loves the extra hydration, making it feel silky smooth.
Primers and blot sheets always work wonders for my skin. No more shine for me in the middle of the day, plus my foundation seems to last longer. The Tatcha blot sheets are fab, too. I love how large they are and I use both sides to absorb excess oil.
Cover/FX makes a lightweight mattifying primer with anti-acne treatment. The Stila liquid lipstick is a dream because it really does stay all day long.
I’ve already admitted that I got spring fever. What about you? Do you have spring fever? What beauty or fashion trends do you plan to try this spring? What warm weather activities will you participate in? Do tell!
Have a fabulous first week in March!
What a perfect mix of texture and metallic for all this crazy transitional weather we have in spring! So fresh!

Sed,
Hi! Thank you for your very nice compliment on the ASOS oversized jacket. I agree about the ups and downs in the temperatures, it makes it difficult to figure out what season we are actually in from day to day.
