Buscemi Bunny

Went to the Easter  Parade today. It wasn't your typical parade with floats and marching bands but it was very whimsical. I didn't know what to expect  but being a hat lover  I was in heaven. People walked up and down 5th Avenue wearing very elaborate Easter Bonnets.  Steve Buscemi was in attendance wearing a pretty dapper top hat. My brother and I had such a great time , we are thinking about participating next year.

Had an awesome Easter lunch with the little Bro at The Meatball Shop. The special meatball for the day was the Bunny Ball. I stuck to the classic beef ball since I spent most of that morning with bunny loving, bonnet wearing parade goers. The chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich was to die for.

The Face

The one piece of advice my mom always gave me was : "Spend money on your face its the first thing people see". I'm not sure if I have her to thank for my vain mind set. I pride myself on the fact that I look 22 and not 32..... call it good genes or an obsession with aging. The one thing I can not live without is my daily routine of putting on my face and nightly routine of taking it off.
Here are a few beauty products that I love.

1. Fake Eyelashes- MAC lashes #7 are my favorite but getting to the MAC counter isn't always convenient. So I usually pick up a pair of Ardell lashes ($4.00) at Bed Bath and Beyond. I tend to stick to #109, #136 or the Demi Pixies.

2. Lipstick- I've been sticking to a neutral eye and wearing a bold lip. Here's a little tip: use a toothbrush to scrub any dead skin off your lip before applying.

3. Sunblock- even though most liquid foundations come with SPF, I always make it a point to apply Aveeno Sunblock lotion. I use it all year round. Remember, your skin isn't something you can change.

4. Eyeliner- I read somewhere that men are attracted to lined lids. It enhances your feminine sensuality.

5.CeraVe- Always, Always, Always clean and moisturize your face!

6. Green Tea - Green tea has always been know to help reduce swelling and discoloration under the eyes. I usually make the tea and pour it into an ice cube tray. Whenever I feel like my eyes are in need of some TLC, I pop out 2 green tea ice cubes and hold them on my eyes for about 5 minutes. I also rub the ice cubes all over my face when I feel like I wake up with a puffy  face.
