Vanity

Bay Ridge makeup-​aholics: There’s no need to schlep to Manhattan to find your favorite high-​end beauty necessities. Before you jump on the R train, check out Vanity on 3^rd Ave.
Browsing in this adorable pastel pink store made me feel like such a girl! There were so many lovely cosmetics and bath goodies to choose from. It’s a pink palace of NARS, Urban Decay, L’Occitane, Too Faced, and more. However, it’s a palace that’s on the small side, so don’t expect to find complete lines. I was looking for a very particular shade of NARS red lipstick and unfortunately, Vanity only carries one NARS red. And not the one I needed either — darn it.
Regardless, it would be all too easy for me and my credit card to get carried away in this place. So I had to tissue the rainbow of test eyeshadow off my hand and excuse myself. But I can’t wait to go back :)
