Laura Mercier Spring (and a couple other new favorites)

What’s not to love about Laura Mercier? Her color is all about flawless skin and wearable formulas and shades. Spring is no different. Inspired by Spring Renaissance, expect youthful and fresh colors with lots of shine and glow. Laura achieved this with warm shades, luminous skin and corals and peaches.

“The Knot Dream Wedding” and Ralph Lauren Romance Plus a GIVEAWAY

We are sneaking up on the most romantic time of year. Not only is everyone buzzing about wedding season but in a couple weeks we have Valentine’s Day. Whether you love it or not, this story is heartwarming. What a wonderful way to celebrate love.

Wedding website, The Knot, just announced a program to create a wedding for one lucky couple. Wedding planner Marcy Blum will follow them through the planning process, allowing readers to vote on each element. This year’s winners of the “The Knot Dream Wedding” are Boston Marathon bombing survivors Rebekah Gregory and Pete DiMartino. The couple was cheering on Pete’s mother when the bomb exploded. They endured multiple surgeries and months of physical therapy, but the experience strengthened their relationship. When TheKnot.com’s EIC heard the couple got engaged, she knew they were the perfect “Dream Wedding Couple.”

And what better fragrance than Ralph Lauren Romance to be the sponsor? Just like the upcoming wedding, Romance is all about the essence of falling in love. The fragrance has that woodsy base that I always love balanced by florals like Sungoddess Rose, Marigold, Yellow Freesia, White Violet, Lotus Flower, Day Lily and rounded out with Ginger and Chamomile Oil.

You can already vote on the wedding location here. Starting Valentine’s Day you can start voting on things like the cake to the flowers to the dress! The couple’s reactions will be shown on The Knot LIVE, a show that is live-streamed on the website.

To celebrate, I’ve teamed up with Ralph Lauren to give away one bottle to a lucky reader. Enter using the widget below. Good luck! (US Only).

The Best Dry Shampoos On FOX23’s Great Day Green Country

I absolutely love getting a professional blow out (more on my new favorite place in Tulsa tomorrow on the blog)… to the point that it almost pains me to have to wash out all that beauty. But thanks to a huge influx of amazing dry shampoos lately, we have tons of options to eek out a couple extra days of the perfect style. This morning, I’ll be back on FOX23’s Great Day Green Country chatting about my five current favorite dry shampoos (see segment below).

Miranda Kerr is The New Face (and Hair) For CLEAR SCALP & HAIR

When it comes to hair, I will always be behind treating strands and the scalp. That is exactly the approach that drugstore brand CLEAR SCALP & HAIR takes with their line of shampoos, conditioners and styling products. This week, they announced that the beautiful Miranda Kerr will be replacing Heidi Klum as spokesperson.

You have to admit, she does have a great head of hair (and impeccable style to match). Kerr will star in a national advertising campaign appearing on TV, in print and on digital properties this month. Also this month, CLEAR is launching two new products. A little more info about the NEW Intense Hydration range hitting the shelves:

NEW CLEAR SCALP & HAIR Hydration Shampoo and Hydration Daily Conditioner protects hair from dryness, delivering a dose of hydration that can last for 24 hours.

NEW CLEAR SCALP & HAIR Deep Hydrating Treatment Mask provides hydration in just three short minutes and is great for healing dry, winter hair.
