A Wink And A Smile: 3 Secrets To Embrace Your Charm

I am known for dramatics. It’s part of my charm. Or lack thereof, depending on who you ask. But, when I say Bellacara feeds my soul, I truly mean it, without any theatrical overtures. There is something so rewarding about helping people look and feel their best. I know that feeling my best helps me face the world. It makes me feel invincible.

Some of my most cherished items at Bellacara are not the ones at the forefront of our store. These “behind the scenes” products help my smile dazzle and my eyes sparkle. They are the secrets behind my charm and could be yours as well… 

Revitalash

I am the official, unofficial spokesperson for Revitalash, literally a walking billboard, and I say that with no ego. Have you seen my lashes? To die for. All I need is a swipe of the Eye Love You Mascara from Westman Atelier and my eyes speak for themselves.

Supersmile 

What are eyes that sparkle without a smile that dazzles? Supersmile is my secret weapon. You know that song “A Wink and a Smile?” I’m 99% sure Supersmile was the inspiration for that song. I am also 99% sure that my white teeth and megawatt lashes have gotten me out of 99% of the trouble I could have been in (see, dramatic).

Cozy You from Antica Farmacista

I am sure you’ve read that smell is the most powerful memory inducer. That being said, my fragrance is my most closely guarded secret. I want my essence to linger far after I’ve left a room. Being told “you smell so good” after a big, warm hug is one of my favorite compliments. I vowed to take my scent secrets to the grave but alas, here I am, sharing my secrets. I have spent years looking for the perfect fall/winter scent. The sweet fusion of warm amber, comforting vanilla, and zesty sandalwood in Cozy You from Antica Farmacista is my favorite and most complimented scent for the season. I know we are headed into the warmer months, but I implore you to come in and experience this fragrance. You will not regret it.
