Beauty in New York City: grand opening

On September 16, Sephora opened their brand new store in the Meatpacking District on 21-27 Ninth Avenue in New York. Manhattan is already filled with Sephora stores, but none quite like this one. Everything about this Sephora is modern, chic and artsy.

Hello gorgeous!

The Mrs. at Beauty To Go

I'm in love with this store and you will be also. It's definitely one to check out if you're in the NYC area. It has a great feel to it and is such a gorgeous space. Ooo and FYI, the Armani foundation is fabulous.

Store Hours: Mon – Sun: 10:00am to 11:00pm

I had the fabulous opportunity to attend the press party for new Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics store in New York's LES (174 Ludlow St) on September 22nd. This is the first ever OCC store and let me tell you, it will not be the last. OCC is a cult favorite and an absolute must for makeup artists. Your beauty kit is not complete without their one-and-only lip tars. The brand 100% vegan & cruelty free. The store was packed with the people from all over including the creator, David Klasfeld. I got to chatting with him about the brand and he told me the reason he chose New York is because this is where he is from, so it's fitting that the first one should be here. He also intends to open more stores in the future: locations mentioned were LA and San Francisco (look out west coast!)

I met the fabulous, Queen of Blending, who might I add is an absolute sweetheart and a fellow blogger, Sooz from Solifestyle. The artists from OCC were the sweetest people and so passionate about their brand. It's wonderful to see a team take such pride in their product.
