MAKE IT A FABULOUS FALL WITH BEAUTY AND THE CITY’S BEAUTY BOX By Katherine Sloan

here are lots of beauty products out there to try and only sometimes do you find something about which to rave. Beauty and the City is a brand new line of vegan, eco-friendly, cruelty-free products that undergo absolutely no animal testing and are completely luxurious. With a reasonable price point you can indulge in stylish, fresh and rejuvenating lotions and potions that will literally make you sparkle. For a glow that can only be mimicked by fiery autumn foliage try Beauty and the City’s glowing products, including the Shimmer Spray and Glow Up Glitterstick in either silver or gold. For a bit of sparkle on your décolletage (or anywhere), spritz on just a bit of Shimmer Spray and you’ll certainly make a statement. For contouring on the cheekbones, nose and chin or simple highlights to make your skin shine, try the handy Glitterstick. This will add just enough sparkle to make any event extra special. We all want fabulous healthy skin and that starts with a good serum one can apply daily. With just a pump or two of product, your face will instantly feel rejuvenated with the CC Serum (with Vitamin C and citrus stem cells). Not only does it rub on effortlessly with a supple finish, the fragrance is divine: subtle but citrusy enough to imagine you’re in a grove surrounded by trees heavy with ripened oranges. For a perfect pout, try the sugar Lip Scrub and your lips will feel exfoliated, kissable and ready for the Vitamin C Lip Moisturizer enriched with antioxidants (and the most charming packaging that looks like a tube of neon lipstick and not your run-of-the-mill lip balm or salve). This gives your lips a moist look sans color so you can apply it around the house or when you’re on the town and feeling au natural.
