A fun little (expensive) trip to Bergdorf Goodman...

What a beautiful day in NYC! Sunshine and cool breezes... One particular  breeze blew me right into Bergdorf while I was passing the time before an appt.  Ah... the smell of expensiveness wafted right up to my nosy nose as I made my way downstairs to the Beauty floor. Now as many of you know, Bergdorf's aint cheap and the products they carry are not your everyday Sephora brands.  As I came down the escalator, a lovely woman named Fifi stopped me and asked me if I had ever heard of Natura Bisse from Spain.  Well, being the beauty/skincare/makeup whore that I am, I gasped and said "No... but I would love to hear more about it!!"...  
The next 45 minutes was a blur, but I can tell you this. These products are absolutely luxurious. We tried creams and serums and eye creams and I finally fell in love with their Sheer Creme named the "The Cure".  It's an anti-aging moisturizer with SPF 20 and "self-adapting" pigment.  It looks like a foundation mousse and adds a hint of glowy color to your skin which is nice when you dont want to wear foundation at all.  The self adapting pigment works on every skin tone so keep that in mind.  
My skin can be very dry especially with the change of seasons and when I applied it, my skin brightened and thanked me dearly for the much need moisture.  It felt so good!  Now, I may have been hallucinating but I could have sworn my face plumped and looked ages younger but I have been known to imagine such things after an afternoon Pinot Grigio.
So, the kicker is that it costs.........wait for it...........wait for it................... 
$160 dollars!  YES.... I KNOW (stop yelling at me)!!! But I only have one face and I'm always ready for the next big thing even if it means I can't eat for a few weeks.. (thank God Im juice-fasting this week)!
Ok, so I will use my new Face care and will let you know the results over the next few weeks.  But remember, that is why Im here Glams! I am more than happy to be your Guinea pig when it comes to BEAUTY!!!  Stay tuned...
