True Nature Botanicals Wellness Dead Sea Bath Salts

A great home spa companion during flu season, True Nature Botanicals just released a limited-edition Wellness Dead Sea Bath Salts ($48, 13.5 oz). 

Therapeutic essential oils of ravintsara, bay laurel, white pine, and myrtle are blended with Dead Sea bath salts. These precious salts were harvested from the southern part of the Dead Sea, which contain the highest amount of minerals. If you feel run down or just want to beat the winter doldrums, try this immune system booster soon!

Clarins Multi-Active Day & Night Creams

Clarins has reformulated their popular Multi-Active creams and just introduced six daytime and night options. Whether you've got normal, dry or combo skin, there's a face cream made just for your needs.

Encapsulated teasel extract, organic California poppy, and myrothamnus work together to reverse daily skin stressors, fine lines, and early wrinkles. The new Multi-Active Day ($56) comes in four options: All Skin Types, All Skin Types SPF 20, Cream Gel Normal to Combination Skin, and Normal to Dry Skin. The All Skin Types is perfect under makeup; I have a feeling the SPF 20 option will be quite in demand. Two options are available for Multi-Active Night ($56): Normal to Combination and Normal to Dry Skin. 

Available at all Clarins counters and www.clarinsusa.com.

NARS Spring 2016 Lipsticks 

Two wearable Satin Lipsticks ($28) are introduced within the NARS Nouvelle Vogue spring 2016 makeup collection. Both are decidedly neutral to complement the bolder shades of the spring eyeshadows.

Rosecliff Satin Lipstick.

On my lips, Rosecliff resembles a nude pink. Banned Red has a touch of warm brown, making this a popular year-round shade. Both have excellent pigmentation and if you're running low on these lipstick shades, now's the time to stock up! 

Banned Red Satin Lipstick.

NARS Tarvos Dual-Intensity Eyeshadow & Impassioned Blush

The NARS Nouvelle Vogue spring 2016 makeup collection has a good mix of bold and neutral shades going on. The seasonal colors certainly make the dreary winter days disappear for a while.

My favorites are the Tarvos Dual-Intensity Eyeshadow ($29) and the Impassioned Blush ($30). The icy mint hue is so pretty. Apply dry for a sheer shimmery finish, or wet for a high-shine look. Coupled with the subdued pink orchid blush, you've got the perfect spring look. I could see myself wearing this duo regularly for spring and summer.

The Nouvelle Vogue collection is available at all NARS boutiques and www.narscosmetics.com. It will be available at Sephora and department stores on February 1.

True Nature Botanicals Seed Serum

Each time I learn about a new True Botanicals product I get excited. The eco-luxe skin care brand loves to innovate and their limited edition Seed Serum is an excellent companion for any winter regimen. I have my usual arsenal of face oils but this one seems to be the most efficient at rejuvenating my skin from brutal winter conditions.

Fortified with ten potent seed oils, this serum is surprisingly light and absorbs easily. It contains concentrated amounts of plant seed oils of carrot, green tea, hemp, grape, chia, red raspberry, evening primrose, abyssinian, papaya, and blackberry. An essential oil blend of rose, sandalwood, frankincense and neroli delivers an elegant and healing fragrance. Some of the ingredients are hard to source, making it all the more precious. Indeed, a veil of nourishing luxury for the face! 

Available for $125 (1 oz) at truebotanicals.com.

You get a gorgeous mix of neutral and dramatic shades that's both office appropriate and perfect for date nights.

I have to say, this is an awesome palette. The colors are all flattering and wearable. I wish there was a dark teal or green shade for some variation but these are quite stunning. My favorite shades are Pistol Grey, Industrial Steel, Amethyst Ash, and Regal Blue.
