Flaunt your spring colors with a NEPALI by TDM scarf!


A little pop of color to a neutral outfit is akin to having a small square of dark chocolate after a meal--it does the trick, without overdoing it! That said, this Rosa Brick-patterned scarf from NEPALI by TDM in silk chiffon is the perfect injection of color, and it comes in seven to-die-for colors. I'm loving this lime-y yellow/green, perfect to complement faded denim and greyish blues.  NEPALI by TDM scarves are made in Nepal by local artisans, and a portion of the NEPALI by TDM profits go to help support the women and children of Nepal with health care and education, so feel good about your purchase! It's $75.00 from NEPALI by TDM.

gloRoyal lip crayons from GloMinerals

gloRoyal lip crayons from GloMinerals featured on Shopalicious.com
It always seems unlikely that anything glossy could come out of a crayon, which immediately brings to mind a waxy, not-so-shiny finish. But along comes this gloRoyal Lip Crayon to defy my expectatons! These sharpenable crayons expertly apply a sheer, slightly shimmery color, in a gel-like texture which slides right onto your lips imparting a moisturizing, glossy shine with no sticky finish, or flavor. GloMinerals uses natural, high pigment minerals in a plant-derived formula including antioxidants and UV defense, so no need to worry about ingesting gobs of mineral oils and parabens found in so many other brands of cosmetics! So pick your shade, and stash one in your purse for on-the-go convenience! The gloRoyal lip pencils are $16.00 each from glo Skincare.

Nature Girl introduces I Am Wave Eucalyptus & Lavender Organic Bath Salts!

Nature Girl introduces I Am Wave Eucalyptus & Lavender Organic Bath Salts! featured on Shopalicious.comGrowing up in the West Indies, I've fond memories of swimming at the beach, drying off in the hot sun with little salt crystals forming all over my skin and hair, and taking little post-lunch naps under the swaying leaves of a nearby coconut tree... ahhh, the pleasures of childhood! Now, as a city-dwelling grown-up, the closest way to replicate that feeling of utter relaxation (and saltiness!) might be this new addition to Nature Girl's product line, I Am Wave, organic bath salts with a luxurious blend of sun-dried sea salts infused with Australian eucalyptus leaf and French lavender flower.

Avalon Organics Vitamin C Revitalizing Eye Cream from LuckyVitamin!

Avalon Organics Vitamin C Revitalizing Eye Ceam from LuckyVitamin! featured on Shopalicious.comOn a recent (and rare!) evening out in the NYC's Meatpacking District, I whipped out my ID to show the burly bouncer of a popular place where people were making their way up to a roof deck with sweet city views. He glanced at the ID, then raised his eyebrows and looked over at me and said "You look good, maaaan!" Now, I'm not going to disclose my age, but I have to guess I was at least a good decade older than any of his patrons that night. Eeek! Nonetheless, I'll take it as a compliment and assume that my eye cream is actually doing it's job. That said nightcream is Avalon Organics' Vitamin C Revitalizing Eye Cream, a luxuriously thick cream smelling faintly of oranges, which sinks right into the eye area, leaving no greasy residue -- very important for a contact lens wearer like me -- and resulting in no fine lines at all! Bouncers, beware! All-natural, and antioxidant-rich, it's $14.32 for 1 fl. oz from LuckyVitamin. Check out Avalon Organics entire line of antioxidant-rich skincare formulated especially to fight the aging effects of the sun.
