February 06, 2014 1:58 PM
1. Laura Mercier Foundation Primer, $33.00 - Fashion Week is a morning to night marathon, and this primer works well at not only priming your face for the days makeup, but also ensuring that it stays put from the first show to the last.
2. MAC Strobe Cream, $32.00 - Moistens, freshens, de-snoozes and de-stresses skin, while diffusing light for a flawless complexion.
3. Sara Happ The Lip Scrub, $24.00 - A winter essential to prep pout’s before any lip color action (Oh, hey YSL Glossy Stain!), it also works wonders on hand and cuticles in a pinch!
4. Dior Crème Abricot Fortifying Cream for Nails, $25.00 - Keep those cuticles from looking ragged with this nourishing cream.
5. Shu Uemura Art of Hair Volume Maker, $48.00 - Showering is hard, especially during the madness of fashion week. This volumizing click-brush of miracle dust is a last minute fix for over sleeping and perfect for strategic application in between shows.
6. EO Organic Hand Sanitizer, $1.95 - Our hair may be covertly unkempt but our hands will be germ free and smell like a lavender garden.
7. Caudalie Elixer, $49.00 - Inspired by Queen Isabelle of Hungary's elixir of youth, this refreshing spray is an instant pick me up when misted on the face and the back of the neck.
8. SK-II Facial Treatment Mask, $125.00 - This 100 percent cotton mask drenches the skin in the brand’s signature pitera fusion of vitamin, amino acids, minerals, and organic acids, while working to revitalize and infuse skin with intense hydration.
9. Yves Saint Laurent Glossy Stain, $35.00 - A gloss, a stain, a lipstick-this YSL lip product does it all. It brightens up your whole face and won’t budge for hours. Number 9 is an especially lovely color of red, but any shade is a winner.
10. La Prairie White Caviar Illuminating Eye Cream, $350.00 - All of those afterparties and late night events can take a toll on the skin, especially the delicate under eye area. This cream instantly lifts and reduces puffiness, while also promoting lightening of dark circles.
11. Cle de Peau Concealer Stick, $70.00 - This lifesaving concealer stick has won too many awards to count, and works amazingly well at blending imperfections without appearing heavy.
12. Frederic Fekkai Glossing Sheer Shine Mist, $25.00 - Keep this ultra lightweight mist in your bag for instantly shinier, healthier, more radiant-looking hair. Infused with pure olive oil, it provides long-lasting and brilliant shine to finished styles, and is perfect for touch-ups on the go.
