How I Survived Fashion Week: The Rembrandt Get Glam Quick Prep Kit

There are few periods of activity that are as insanely busy as Fashion Week. At that point in my life, I'm usually wishing for a clone. But some products--and kits--help, and not in a pesky "here's $5 for a soda" kind of way.

Trust Hollywood Celebrity Stylist Mary Alice Stephenson --who is a true glam goddess-- to send some help our way. She teamed up with Rembrandt Toothpaste to put together glam essentials for every goddess that served us well during that one week of glamorous hell (yup, if you cover FW, you'll know what I'm talking about)

The REMBRANDT Get Glam Quick Kit contains:

  • The Deeply White Toothpaste and 2 Hour Whitening System. Brush your teeth with the toothpaste and then use the 2 Hour Whitening Kit that promises to whiten your teeth by up to three shades. What we loved about it? No stinging or numbing sensation.
  • Makeup: from the Sally Hansen Complete Manicure nail lacquer (which combines everything you need in one bottle), to the Smashbox Photo Finish Primer (one of the beauty industry's all time best selling primers) --you have everything you need for a quick touch up.
  • BAND-AID by Cynthia Rowley Designer Bandages: If you get a paper cut or a boo boo during Fashion Week, bare your legs and arms in designer band aids. The cutest ones you'll ever set eyes on!
  • Smith's Rosebud Salve: This year, the weather has been playing tricks with my skin, especially chapped lips. This tube (my staple) is a Goddess send.
  • Sally Hansen Airbrush Tanning Spray: This will help your gams get toned. 'Nuff said.
  • VISINE Redness Relief Formula: You need to see the collections and beauty trends clearly. No time for dry eyes at the tents.
  • Neutrogena Makeup Removing Towelettes: No one has time to soap, foam and rinse off makeup with water. These are really portable (and thin) and perfect for your pocket book.
  • In addition, you get Hollywood Tape for quick and easy wardrobe fixes, and a Deodorant Stain Remover along with Johnson & Johnson Mint Floss.

Now, can you see why this Kit was really our go to choice during Fashion Week? Props to Mary Alice Stephenson and Rembrandt for teaming up on this and bring this to us.

Now, I know what you're thinking--where can you get your hands on one? It isn't actually for sale, but that doesn't mean you can't take a cue from Mary Alice Stephenson and make one for yourself, especially now you know the ingredients for a quick fix.

Pack these items during your travel or glam journeys and you'll be surprised at how quickly the little things add up to big relaxation.

Yup, and I survived Fashion Week in style, plus or minus a few drinks.
