Too Faced La Creme

I am utterly blessed with some world class Girl friends. Life without them would be unimaginable. One of the most special bonds I share is with the women I grew up with in Great Neck, Long Island.
Our town was very different from the one it has become. Though it was a fairly homogeneous affluent Jewish Community, we were oblivious to who had what, skin color or ethnicity. Our biggest concern was who was going to win the annual North-South football game, (North of course...) and what party we were attending on Saturday night.
I spent part of this week with two of my GN besties, Barbara and Alison. Alison lives in Massachusetts, so we spent some time in the neighboring town of Wellesley, which is utterly charming.
I was amused to see how many of my DivaDebbi picks dotted Alison's dressing table. Alison is an actress and will be filming next week. She was in search of a good, lightweight primer, so we stopped into the next best thing to Sephora, a little gem of a shop called Beauty and Main.
The owner has some seriously good taste in skincare and makeup with the likes of luxurious brands like Laura Mercier, Trish McEvoy, Too Faced, Nutura Bisse, Darphin, Murad and Fresh.
Impressive.
Alison ended up with a new Laura Mercier Foundation Primer, (that I was offered from LM to review, but since I'm a little primer heavy at the moment took a pass on it. I will definitely be getting Alison's take, particularly since it will be worn for film purposes).
Naturally, I couldn't leave empty handed either...
