Dear Santa,

Quick question for you...May I receive fabulous gifts on the evening of Dec. 24th (they can be left w/my doorman - there is no chimney) even though I am Jewish?

Looking forward to your feedback!

I love new makeup, who doesn't? New color palettes, new eye shimmers, lip shades, face powder - I love trashing the old, mutilated makeup and replenishing my stash with sexy new shades for the holidays.

When I discovered Clarins Barocoo Collection, I instantly fell for the seductive palettes, the golden shimmers, the metallic mixture and raven black eye color. Smokey eye anyone?

This is one of those super chic, inexpensive makeup must-haves that can help you revamp your look for the holidays without breaking the bank. LOVE!

Vamp up your lips, mark your eyes with mysterious shadow and enhance your look with shimmer with a hint of blush.

Packing for my Thanksgiving weekend in NJ solidified what I already knew...I slightly overpack and frequently bring the wrong items with me. Hello, where are my socks? Favorite sweatshirt?

My motto is bring everything - spare nothing! However, when my suitcase looks like it may burst at any moment, it's time to remove a pair of shoes or two.

What skin-saver is not leaving my carry-on bag? Oh, just a little beauty essential that I discovered called Clarins Instant Light Eye Perfecting Base.

I have a Cinderella skin tone, so the majority of under eye concealers appear to make me look like I just left a tanning bed, but not this one. Clarins Instant Light Eye Perfecting Base blends easily with a super smooth finish. Application is seamless with Clarins' soft brush. I love that the applicator is attached and I give it a quick rinse after each usage.

This creamy, long-lasting formula leaves my under eye area moisturized and free from dark circles. Now, that's what I call a holiday miracle!

What's your latest beauty miracle?

*Please note: I did receive an editoral sample to test, however I only write about the products I love and truly believe in.

I love getting a manicure and pedicure! What girl doesn't love to be pampered?

So, I was more than excited to hear that one of my all-time favorite clothing and accessory collections, J. Crew, partnered with the nail polish gurus at Essie to create four oh-so-fabulous nail colors for         J. Crew customers-only!

These four shades compliment J.Crew's holiday collection, which is overflowing with glamour, sparkles, studs and shine. And while my husband wants to keep me on a "budget" this holiday season, he can't dare complain about $20 nail polish.

When was the last time you woke up with mascara smeared below you eyes and faded berry lipstick on your lips. You touch your eye lashes and your once soft and sleek mascara now feels crunchy like a bag full of Baked Lays.

It's common knowledge that one of the best ways to keep your skin looking young and healthy is to wash your face, removing all makeup before your head hits the pillow. Some makeup removers partially do the job, removing some but not all makeup, dirt and residue. Some leave your face feeling sticky, oily or dirty.

Then I fell for Shisedo's Instant Eye and Lip Makeup Remover. This dual-action, super soft makeup remover helps me remove all of my makeup without stripping my skin of moisture or leaving my face feeling like an oil slick. This moisturizing, multitasking makeup remover is on a my A-list this holiday season. This sensatve makeup remover is a must, especially during the holiday season!

Waking up with racoon eyes...never again!

What's your latest beauty life saver?
