girlfriendbuys things we know you'll love

Ever dream of sitting in the front row of a New York fashion show with Gwyneth and Stella? Well, here is your chance.  (Okay, we can’t promise you the front row. Nor can we promise you Gwyneth or Stella.  We do promise, however, that you will have fun!) The Paramount Hotel in New York is offering a fantastic promotion for you fashionistas out there. 

The Paramount’s Fashion Night Out Package offers exclusive access to Fashion’s Night Out and Fashion Week events including the annual New York Fashion Week Style360 show. In addition to your deluxe accomodations, you will receive a free tote bag, plus a Grey Goose Le Citron Couture cocktail at the hotel’s Library Bar.

We have to say, the price…

Supergoop to the rescue! We adore these Supergoop! Sunscreen Swipes. They are incredibly easy to use, and you don’t need a significant other around to avoid a scorched back!  Two of these wipes carried us through an entire hot sunny day on a boat.  And isn’t that what we need when we are trying to relax – one less thing to worry about?  Plus, they are great to throw in your bag for those sunscreen emergencies! (you never know…) xoxo to supergoop.

it’s almost impossible for a short person to find a pretty long summer dress without it being overpowering.  after several summers of searching we found the absolute perfect long petite summer dress!  
Gap’s striped long racerback dress comes in a petite size and is light enough to wear on the hottest of days.  it is truly a pleasure to wear – in fact, if we could get away with it, we’d wear it every day!  and right now, it’s even on sale. this is almost too good to be true. especially now, today only , you can take an extra 30% off! use code GAPSAVENOW at checkout! wait until tomorrow or weds, use the…

not to even mention how tired we are of shaving! we were perusing the alarming cost of some of the women’s disposable razors out there.  we wonder what the price tag yearly is to purchase disposable razors that end up in a landfill?  well, every day we get closer to a solution and the state of the art home method of hair removal is this wonderful item: the Silk’n SensEpil. girlfriendbuys has a very special coupon code for you to take 12% off of the price for the month of July! Use code XTA9033XT at checkout. if you take the plunge, we’d love to hear about your experience! email us at maria@girlfriendbuys.com.

we are generally obsessed with lip stains.  personally I have them all over – in my desk at work, in my bag, in my car, in my makeup case.  so, we know a little bit or two about them.  we absolutely adore this Vincent Longo Lip Stain with SPF 15 . it comes in colors we love like nude and cherry that you can wear with anything.  they last, yet they are so easy to put on, you could even do it without a mirror!  they are light, yet the color looks just right.  they also look great over a matching lip liner….

Lucky Brand is having it’s biggest sale ever - their cleverly named 50% Off Sale. Who can resist that?

we tend not to use alot of concealer around here.  mostly, because our faces are usually buried in our computers, and its an extra step in the morning we just do not have time for.  however, one of us recently experienced a cosmetic disaster when our shih tzu scratched our nose by accident, and we must say, it was very unsightly! combine that with a facial mole removal and we really needed to find the best concealer out there.  we tried a few, and they lasted, like, 5 seconds.  then, we tried mally beauty cancellation concealer system. the scratch disappeared before our eyes.  and it…

when it’s hot outside and you are trying to get out the door – reach for perfect color in one step from stila. we use per suede and it is the perfect nude color – not too dark – but it (and you) are definitely noticeable.

one of the reasons we started girlfriendbuys was to tell you about those items that really are the greatest. and it cosmetic’s bye bye under eye is one of those products.  i have struggled with under eye circles for years, and after using this product for a month, one day, i realized that I had not thought about my under eye circles in quite some time.  because, they were gone.

we really struggle here finding time to workout.  with jobs, kids, husbands, family, friends and all of life’s other demands, it really perplexes us how we are supposed to fit in exercise!  for us, it has to be something we love doing and makes us feel good.  this kundalini yoga transformer all-in-one workout is a mind and body workout well worth getting up early for!
