If you’re a beauty enthusiast, chances are you’ve heard about the NARS Andy Warhol collection … and have been dying to get your hands on it. Well, we have good news for you—the collection is finally live! And we’re here to tell you it’s just as amazing in person as you’ve been hoping it would be! Specifically the NARS Flowers Eyeshadow Palette, which caught and held our attention the moment we laid eyes on it.There are actually three different palettes you can choose from, but we’re loving Flowers 1, with its mix of white, rose, lavender, gold, lavender grey and black shadows crafted into beautiful Warhol-esque flowers. Each of the palettes draws from Warhol’s famous silkscreen flora. Etched into the interior mirror of Flowers 1 is Warhol’s quote, “If you can convince yourself that you look fabulous, you can save yourself the trouble of primping.”
The only problem we have with this palette is that we can’t bring ourselves to actually use it! It’s just way too beautiful—and it makes us feel like we have a piece of real Warhol art in our home.
NARS Flowers 1 Eyeshadow Palette retails for $55 at sephora.com.

If we had to pick the most romantic scent in the world, we’d have to go with rose. It just evokes such a sense of beauty and, yes, romance—obviously, since it’s the flower most men give women, right? In any case, we’ve put together a little bouquet of three rose-scented products that we know you’ll adore.Crabtree & Evelyn Rosewater Bath & Shower Gel
It lathers wonderfully, it smells fantastic, and it leaves skin feeling so soft and smooth. What’s not to love?

Jurlique Rose Hand Cream
While we normally shy away from scented body lotions and creams, we make an exception for this one because it just smells too darn good not to use. The fact that it sinks into skin immediately and makes our hands feel great is just a bonus.

Fresh Rose FreshFace Primer
The primer we come back to again and again—not only because it smells divine, but because it makes our skin glow from within.
