The Wantable Company: Fashion, Fitness, Beauty, Accessories and Intimates @Wantableco @Dove

Subscription based companies having been trending now for some time, but the launch of The Wantable Company brings it to a new level. Style editors choose looks based on a short quiz taken by the consumer and 3 to 5 premium items are shipped to your home. Most companies offer one category, but Wantable offers fashion, beauty, fitness wear, jewelry and accessories.

What we like about the company is that shipping and returns are free, so if something in your package is not a favorite, then return it no questions asked. The brands are curated by the style editors who have expertise in what’s new and hot.

The first month is $40 and $36 every month after that. For $20 they will hand pick 5 items for you to try the first time around.

Recently The Wantable Company teamed up with Dove advanced care and they held a VIP event at The Trump Soho in NYC to introduce the new service and pair it with the new antiperspirant deodorant with 13 scents to choose from. Editors chose their own box to review, which was fitness based and we have to say we love ours.

Artis Introduces New Fluenta Brush Collection @ArtisBrush

Former MAC Cosmetics Executive Mathew Waitesmith recently launched a luxurious and super high tech brush collection. The shape of these brushes allows application to feel like using your fingers to give you superior control and flexibility. The elongated necks, aside from being artlike in appearance actually provide fluidity in applying the product.

Artis Fluenta brushes are composed of CosmeFibre with 250,000 individual fibres and they outperform standard brushes by being UV resistant, durable, and are resistant to chemicals found in makeup products. The best part is they are totally cruelty free!

The collection consists of 9 brushes ranging in price from $36 to $72, or $190 for the 5 piece set or $400 for the 9 piece collection.

The brushes are available at Bergdorf Goodman and Neiman Marcus.

Paula’s Choice 20th Anniversary Breakfast @PaulasChoice

20150617 094427

A few weeks ago we were lucky enough to be invited to a breakfast to celebrate Skincare guru’s Paula’s Choice 20 years in the business.

We were treated to a delicious breakfast at The Standard Hotel, in the Meatpacking district ,while listening to Paula speak about her favorite products and why she has been able to succeed in this very competitive and sometimes saturated skincare market.

Her favorite products include RESIST Vitamin C Treatment for brown spots ($55), The Broad – Spectrum SPF 43 Sunscreen Spray ($25), Clinical K Treatment Cloths ($32), and The SUN 365 Self Tanning Concentrate ($18)

One of her newest and best selling products now is the Resist Hyaluronic Acid Booster ($45). It works well on all skin types and visibly plumps skin with an infusion of a good dose of hyaluronic acid and sodium hyaluronic to diminish the appearance of wrinkles.

For people with acne prone skin or a problem with blackheads Paula’s Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BPA Liquid ($26) contains 2 percent salicylic acid (BHA) and has a pH that allows it to unclog pores and keep breakouts and blackheads from happening. It is fragrance free so if you if have sensitive skin or allergies it has proven to improve skin’s tone and texture.

Paula’s belief that quality effective skincare should be attainable and affordable is a major key to her success and longevity in the beauty business.

We were sent home with a bag full of goodies to try for ourselves including a bottle of Veuve Clicquot to celebrate the occasion.

Rooftop Bar and Lounge: Up on 20 Hyatt Herald Square @HyattHS

2015 06 05 11 36 56 500370706

Herald Square is known for its shopping, Madison Square Garden and flurry of activity, so it was a nice surprise to find a new boutique style Hyatt smack in the middle, but designed uniquely to give the visitor a tranquil and serene experience at the end of the day.

Up on 20 is the newly designed rooftop bar and lounge now open for the warm summer months. With unobstructed views of both the Empire State Building and The Freedom Tower it is the perfect place for both locals and visitors to come for cocktails and a meal.

The menu focuses on small bites and platters made to be shared as well as burgers and salads. We started out with spicy pork crackling which paired nicely with our first cocktail, The Rum Julep. We then tried the mini meatballs which were juicy and tasty and served with hoison and sesame glaze and baby leek. The shrimp ceviche with pineapple and chili was very fresh and perfect for a summer day snack.

The best part of the meal was the grilled beef burger with brie cheese, lettuce, tomato, and onion jam complemented with killer truffle fries.

The bar/lounge is open for brunch, dinner and for cocktails daily.

Up on 20 Rooftop Lounge: Hyatt Herald Square 32 west 31st. New York, NY 10001 www.upon20nyc.com (212) 330-1234

Boden Fall 15 Preview #BodenAW15 @Bodenclothing

Editors this week got a sneak peak of the Boden collection for Fall/ Winter 15 and the collection is hugely inspired by the 60’s trend with feminine florals, high waists and embellished shoes. We love the sparkly booties and maryjanes! The kids collection is adorable as well with great pieces for layering in many pops of color.
