Azalea Boutique

This past Saturday, we hosted a Barlow Trunk Show with the lovely Alice Barlow and Lulu Chang (of LuluAndYourMom).  There were gorgeous, lacy, leather, softer-than-butter designs here from Barlow, delish cupcakes from That Takes The Cake, Greyhounds courtesy of Devotion Vodka and a $500 outfit giveaway!!

We had so much fun chatting it up with Alice, getting fashion tips from Lulu, and sipping on refreshing cocktails–a perfect Saturday!

With the sun shining and Summer right around the corner, we were looking to get our skin ready for its debut.

Here’s what we’re obsessed with this week:

Jurlique — Herbal Recovery Gel

I am head over heels for this product!  Until Jurlique came into my life, I had no idea what my face was missing.  I applied the gel to my freshly-washed face and immediately reaped the benefits.  Because its a gel and not a creme, it leaves the skin feeling hydrated without weight or greasy residue.  As I applied a thin, even coat to my entire face, and felt it absorb almost instantly, I was left with a radiant glow; not a ‘fauxglow’ like the ones you get from shimmer powder or tinted lotion, but a glow that can only be brought about by strenuous exercise, a really great facial or Jurlique magic.  I can’t get enough!!

REN — Glycolactic Skin Renewal Peel Mask

Let me preface this by saying that I’ve tried nearly every mask we carry here.  This mask from REN is one of my favorites because its a gentle exfoliating peel. The natural, fruit-based enzymes ‘eat’ away all the dead, dull skin and leave my skin feeling velvety smooth, fresh, and radiant.

Malin + Goetz — Detox Face Mask

I don’t wash my face everyday and also tend to fall asleep with my makeup on, all the time.  I love this mask because it helps me fix all of the damage I’ve done.  I prefer to wash/exfoliate my face first and then use this to hydrate and refresh my tired skin.

Our fave hat. We all love it. See it on Lesley, see it on Brian! From Grace Hats $44.

On the other hand, Takashi prefers antlers (not for sale)…

Good things occasionally do come to an end – we wish Pam the best of luck and we’ll miss her terribly at Azalea. Party on, rock and roll! Pam, you know that this is NOT really goodbye though.

Pam’s idol: Hello Kitty. This cake comes from Citizen Cake and it was delicious. To bad we had to eventually chow on the face…
