with a quickness

last week, my schedule was packed solid.  i had long days at the office, headed home to get ready with a quickness, then headed straight back out to evening work engagements. 

suffice it to say, i'm on the go and i've come to rely on these two key products to keep me polished and ready:

1. Tom Ford eyeshadow quad in Cognac Sable

 

ugh, everytime i stop by the tom ford counter at neiman marcus, i end up leaving with something.  now, this would not be such an issue if every item was so darn expensive.  this eyeshadow quad is $75 but i already can't live without it.  a collection of warm browns that work perfectly together.  also, i'm ashamed to admit that i have not cleaned my brush collection in a very long time, so i've resorted to using the applicators provided.  they're not the best, but they do get the job done. 

 

 

2.  Benefit Go Tropicoral box

 



 

i picked up this adorable box set on my last trip to sephora, and i'm now seriously thinking about picking up the other ones (feelin' dandy and sugarlicious).  i use and love every single item in the palette, and end with the purse-sized gloss in my clutch for touch-ups.
