With a rebel yell, she cried more, more, more!

I’m not hooked on beauty products, per se, I just really like them. A lot. I can’t get enough and no, I don’t have a problem.

I may however, be slightly addicted to the latest launch from the creative crew at mark. Their Rebel Rose Collection is a cheeky bunch of products for the face with one particularly punchy fragrance named after the new collection.

One product in particular has made it to the top of my makeup bag. mark’s Cheekblossom Cheek Tint is a smarty-pants clear gel that warms up on skin to create a hue unique to your skin tone. The gel formula is foolproof, making it impossible to look clownish, and looks so incredibly natural, you’ll look delicately flushed all day long. Priced at $6.00 (yup – less than you probably spent on lunch today!), you can get it exclusively at MeetMark.com.

A better way to hunt for deals.

logoAs much as I love, love, love a good bargain, I cannot stand trolling for them. I get frustrated trying to find my size tucked into hundreds and hundreds of garments crammed into one rack. You must be wondering – how do I score such great bargains then, without stepping foot into an outlet or department store? Dear Chic-Thrills readers, meet my best friend, ShopItToMe

The site came about when its founders, like me, grew tired of hunting for bargains. They set out to create a website that will bring the sales to your inbox.  Think of the website as your free personal shopper. Simply sign up, then set up your preferences, choosing from hundreds of designers, brand names and stores. The website will send you daily, weekly or semi-weekly emails with photos of sale items for you to browse and purchase at your leisure. But it gets even better – because you choose your sizes when you first sign up, you won’t ever rush to get an item to find it’s not available in your size. How cool is that?

See for yourself how easy shopping can be from the comfort of your desk chair!
