LOVE AFFAIRS
KIMBERLY TAYLOR GINDI AND ASHLEY FELDMAN, BLAC DIAMOND SISTERS
Sisters Kimberly Taylor Gindi and Ashley Feldman invited me over to play in their makeup cabinets, and what perfect timing: the girls have just launched their new Blac Diamond jewelry line. I got a first look at the goods… Enjoy!

“We are just now launching our fine jewelry collection, Blac Diamonds. We were always fans of black diamond jewelry, designing and collecting pieces on our own and for friends, so it seemed natural to launch our own collection. Our first pieces include tennis bracelets, studs, hoops and eternity bands that are all set in white or rose gold, or our signature “blackout” Rhodium …we aim to produce quality timeless jewels with an edge.”

“In the morning I start off by cleansing with Neutrogena face wipes and then use the Ahava Rich Cleansing Cream and La Mer moisturizer. For makeup I use Chanel Soleil de Tan, the NARS Laguna bronzer and Orgasm blush duo and YSL Shocking mascara. OPI Black Onyx is my staple for my nails. I use Organix Morocaan Oil shampoo and conditioner and then let my hair dry naturally out of the shower. My go-to, quick-fix product is Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer - and a pair of sunglasses – and I’m out the door.”


“In the morning, I cleanse with Cetaphil and when I have time I use the Neutrogena Wave Sonic cleanser. At night, I use the SabonMud Mask and in the shower I use the Sabon Lemon Mint Body scrub. I’ve been cutting my own bangs recently and use Morrocan Oil before I blow dry. In terms of makeup, I happen to love the Sephora brand mineral double compact – I take it with me everywhere I go. Otherwise, I use Armani foundation, Chanel eyeliners and YSL mascara.”

“The one product that makes me feel amazing is red lipstick. I wear it even in the morning sometimes. I love Tom Ford Cherry Lush or the infamous NARS Jungle Red. I always wear red nail polish no matter what season. I rarely stray, but if I do, its for Christian Dior’s black nail polish or Tom Ford’s Bitter Bitch; both were gifts from friends!”
