Shiseido Shimmering Rouge for spring 2011

Shiseido Shimmering Rouge BE702 - AlabasterWomen everywhere will love Shiseidos new screaming Rouge ($ 25), a sheer lip color, that feels and looks great. There are 13 new shades. Sunday I told about my first four. Please pop over to this feature by clicking the link "Sunday". I will now show you the second four, ordered from Sephora, which arrived this week.
To sum up quickly, offers screaming Rouge sheer, brilliant colors, each lips with lasting moisture and makes them appear full. These sheer lip colors feel good and beautiful.
The first round, I had chosen three shades from Sephora and Shiseido sent me a fourth. I loved them all, so I had to have more shades. Im a sheer lipstick lover-perhaps an addict. The four colors I ordered in the second round are listed here.

PK 311, 312, Pink ChampagneRS Iced RoseRD 406 DesireRD 601, Golden Dragon shades is shown on my arm right in the same order, with PK 311, Pink Champagne at the top. My photo taken outdoors in sunlight. The first three shades are perfect for me. Golden Dragon at the bottom may be a little darker than my "comfort zone", but I have used several coats of each of these nuances to make sure I got a good photo. Used with a lighter hand, it looks good.
Shimmering Rouge has a very good time to wear a sheer lipstick. I have nothing against reuse throughout the day. I would rather have the brilliant, bright, unfaded color than a long-lasting lipstick that resembles a stain on an hour-and feels like chalk. Another advantage to garish Rouge, there are no detectable odour or taste-Yippee!
You can buy from Amazon or your local retailer.

The key to skin touch red to spring 2011

I had hoped to write a comprehensive review of Clé de Peau spring 2011 collection today, but events, including physical therapy, konspireret against me. Join us tomorrow ready for this feature. I got some good pictures today.

I will show you more of the collection, so I decided to write a quick feature on the three new Touche de Rouge ($ 52) nuances. Touche is the Rouge a excellent soft and gentle lip color, which is melting onto lips gives you real, elegant and silk color. If you've read the best thing of beauty for any period of time, do you know I prefer sheer lipsticks. I have used Touche de Rouge, with its classic slim line tube since I was introduced to the moment. Love it!

There are three new shades for spring. Shade # 129, a gorgeous, warm rosy pink, which is shown on my arm to the right. The other two shades fit and not me. Shade 0 # 13 is a pure peach-without trace pink to my eye, at least in the Swatch photo Kathy Shoreman sent me from Neiman Marcus. Shadow # 131 is through coral and-very trendy for this season.

Kathy 's iPhon e photo to the left shows # 129 at the top, # 130 in the middle and # 131 the bottom in her hand. The moment she sent me the photo, I reserved # 129. It's pink (a perfect, easy wear hue-sheer, shiny and very promising.

The major components of this wonderful lip color include moisture-wrapping oil to create a moist, luxurious-looking luster; Clé de Peau Beauté 's exclusive, advanced moisturizing Hydro-Wrap complex; and argan tree oil for smooth implementation and wear (one of our favorites!).

I realize it is a little expensive, but if you can handle the price, you will find a Touche de Rouge, shadow will addict you. they are the Nice. You can buy Clé de Peau Beauté color at Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom, Saks and other fine department stores.

Lancôme Tan miracle retouch Instant Pen, Lit-from-within reflector

Another pen highlighter! Just when you trøde we had enough of them, Lancôme has a new (at least gals at Neiman Marcus told me, it's new). I would, of course, try it!

Here is the difference, I see this one and others, including my all-time love, Touche Éclat. It has meant to retouch your Foundation in addition to serving as a highlighter. Not all do.

Lancôme makes a relatively new Foundation known as Tan miracle, 10 years in the making. It has been said to restore perfect skin with a lit-from-within the appearance of the sand, natural light. I have always liked Lancômes Foundation (I used to wear only a long time ago). Instant touch up pen for all skin types were created to do the same thing: Add a lit-from-in appearance to the areas you want to retouch. It can be used as your foundation in need.

This is the first Lancôme perfecting pen enriched with micro-fluorescent particles into a wave of sand, natural light. Portable pen can be used anytime anywhere to retouch-reflector, smoothing and elimination visible imperfections. The liquid mixes easily and seamlessly (very liquid texture), and it immediately hydrating. Unfortunately, from my perspective, some of its hydratisere properties come from propylene glycol (PG), the ubiquitous and cheap hydrator our beauty companies do not seem to be able to "lose." While it has some nice hydratisere ingredients to score plus points in my book, PG a minus from me. Too bad-otherwise I really like to Tan miracle.

May not interest you PG as I do. If you want to try a new Click highlighter pen, will immediately lighten your skin, you must check out Tan miracle on your Lancôme counts. It is available in several colour shades.

I bought the lightest shade of # 1. I took a photo of it indoors in full sun. at the top of my photo I used the product, from the pen. Below, I mix it. Blended, it is my skin tone, so all you can see is the glimpse in my photo-if. I can assure you that shine in the center of my arm is primarily from the effects change highlighting.

You can buy Tan miracle by Lancôme counters. They told me they have problems with keeping it in stock at Neiman Marcus.

Clé de Peau for spring 2011 Preview and swatches

Makeup for spring 2011 has been the embarrassment of riches. What seemed to be "The bli ' r ' was just better. The new Clé de Peau eye and lip colors just arrived in stores, and there is a must-have eye color bottle among them.

I write this example to show you Eye Color bottle ($ 55) and swatches quickly. When I have more time, I will do a more thorough job. I was so blown away by pretty eye shadows, I could not wait to show you.

Palettes in my photo to the left is # 206 at the top, and # 207. Overlay with Clé de Peau logo gives them a very classic look, but you lose these logos as soon as you use shadows.

Here are two swatch images. I swatched from left to right in the palettes as shown above. I used a sponge-Tipped Applicator apply shadows, and I took the photos indoors in sunlight. Eye shadow quad # 206 is displayed to the right. I think these luscious shades. Quad # 207 is shown below left. Again s, the shadow is lust-worthy. A spring with lots of gray is two in # 207 gorgeous. If you are a Clé de Peau fan, how could you resist buy both?

These palettes in my photo above looks a bit strange, because Clé de Peau selling the case for their sake bottle separately, and I will not pay for it. I can process plastic fine, and I are planning not to take them everywhere. I would rather have more makeup than pay for compacts.

I will show you more swatches of these lovely eye shadows, along with my new lip colors, tomorrow.

Make up FOREVER Lab Shine Lip Gloss

MAKE up FOR EVER's new Lab Shine Lip Gloss ($ 18) roped me in when I saw it online at Sephora. I love glosser, and this one comes in shades and three 35 finishes! Knew I would find a few I loved, and I did.

This gloss combines Camelina oil and mother-of-pearl particles reflect light to create incredible Shine that adds the appearance of the volume to lips (shiny lips look fuller). Formulated with hyaluronic acid, give it intense hydration with a non-sticky texture for a noticeably moisturized Pouting. Its subtle apricot fragrance adds a sweet scent to your lips-probably the only drawback from my perspective. I was not sure which flavour Kool-Aid I tasting when I have used it, but I knew it was sweet. I know I am extreme in my volume determination of flavored lip products. Many of them like to them.

I can get past the fragrance of this gloss because gloss is so nice. The three finishes is Diamond, Star, and Metal. Diamond collection includes 12 shades that give natural color with sparkling, sheer coverage. The Star has 14 shades with a pearly Shine medium coverage. The collection consists of nine Metal extremely the shadows, which offers full coverage with an intense, chrome finish.

I decided to try two. I bought the D14, a flickering "Indian pink" from Diamond collection and S14, pearly blackcurrent Star from the collection. They are very different. D14 is very sheer. S14 has much more pigment. Both shine, but has a little less S14 Shine. I noticed a little micro-sparks in the D14. You cannot feel them upon your lips, but they are there-and beautiful.

I had to take my Swatch photo outside a very overcast morning. I could see the sun behind the clouds, but there was not enough light up my good photo. Sorry it is a bit dark, but it is supposed to rain later, so I do not know when my next opportunity will arise. D14 is swatched top, used directly with its own brush Applicator. You can see, it is a beautiful, warm pink. What you don't see in my photo is the teeny-tiny sparkles. They are very beautiful. S14 below is my favorite of the two simply because it has more pigment. It is a grape-rose, an exquisite shading.

These are so beautiful, glosser I try to decide (based on fragrance compounds, which Fade) whether I want to buy S16, S18 and S20. I Star finish, and all these shades look nice also.

Have you tried them? You can find them at Sephora.

Anastasia highlighting cream Duo

I was enthralled by Anastasias highlighting Crème Duo ($ 35) when I saw it at Sephora online. Designed to appeal to those who love sheer crème blushers and subtle, shimmering liquid highlighters (me!), had to be my Duo Crème highlighting As you might guess., not I could choose between the two shades, so I ordered both.

Formulated with Anastasias exclusive antioxidant-rich Balkans botanical Infusion, which helps to soothe and soften the appearance of the skin, is this highlighting Crème Duo like no other. Liquid it hydrates without ever look greasy or Chalky and crème blush has a sheer, warm glow that mixes easily for a flawless finish compliments any skin tone. Light-diffunderer pigments reveal a beautiful subtle glow. If there were not enough, fragrance-free and not add to the cacophony of fragrances a can end up with after full makeup application.

I was very pleased when my new goodies arrived (not so happy with Sephora, which continue to send me cheap, disgusting fragrance samples I not order). I think you should check out this beautiful duo!

Two shade duoer is:
Aspen, a peachy-pink blush with Golden pearl highlighter, and
St. Tropez, a berry-pink blush with a darker golden tan highlighter.Both work with my fair skin, so I flexibility I have by owns them both. Highlighters is always difficult for me to photograph, so I'll show you two, the one taken outdoors and one inside. I have used blush from Anastasia Applicator and highlighter with a sponge Tipped Applicator run across paddle dips in the product. My first photo on the right was taken outdoors. The two Aspen colors appear at the top, highlighter and first blush below. You can see sheerness of both, something I appreciate. Both products are very easy to mix. Aspen provides a subtle pretty in pink appearance. Blush is a hot pink with a touch of peach.

St. Tropez gives a little more punch, but it has all Aspen lovely qualities. Displayed as a set at the bottom of my arm, the gold highlighter is a gorgeous gold, and the mere blush is clean perfect pink-not too bright, even though.

Phot o my left was taken indoors. It could show you the shades a little better. The best way for you to check it will be a trip to Sephora (or a online spree). While not often get Anastasia headlines of its competitors, is this highlighting Crème Duo worth a couple raves.

In case you don't know, is Anastasia Soare they go to brow just because he ate professional for stars in Beverly Hills. Over the years, she has achieved iconic status for its unique way of shaping eyebrows and enhance the appearance of the eye area. She grew up culturally rich Romanian seaport in Constanta and were exposed to classic styles for Greek, Roman and Byzantine Empires from an early age. Combine his artistic interests with them a more technical level, pursued her professional training as a along before doing the move to California to build his reputation.

While working as a along with several prestigious Beverly Hills institutes developed Anastasia her own specific technique, shaping eyebrows to help strengthen the superscope, eye. With her very loyal following and growing buzz behind her brow just because he ate shaping techniques, opened her first full Anastasia salon in Bedford drive in Beverly Hills, aptly named Anastasia Beverly Hills. Her salon has since built up a constant celebrity clientele, leads her to open a second location for California in Brentwood. Never one to close the book and the rest on her laurels, she has developed products that combine beauty with Anastasia science of skin care. She now offers, a very nice line arrivederci-products. I think duoer Crème highlight was my first Anastasia purchases. I now pouring over the rest of the line in order to decide what I should try next.

Suntegrity natural mineral Suncare

Are you looking for a moisturizing creams that are not filled with chemicals? I found one for you!

I know that some of them can't use tattoos, which offers chemical UV protection against ultraviolet radiation. You have told me in your comments. Suntegrity offers products with the best known physical block ingredient (nano zinc oxide, as a medium-sized) to provide broad spectrum UVA/UVB protection along with antioxidants and amino acids to improve protection and help with skin repair. Suntegritys products use non-toxic preservatives to maintain their integrity without sacrificing safety or health. I got the opportunity to try Suntegrity all natural Moisturizing face protection SPF 30 ($ 45). I give you the brief summary before I tell you about it. it is extremely nice.

Top rated by environmental working group, this moisturizing sunscreen offers UVA and UVB broad spectrum protection-from the Sun, and it is infused with Youth-promoting antioxidants and astaxanthin. It contains 20% zinc oxide. It was carefully formulated for all skin types, and it is free from Parabens, petrochemicals, phthalates, propylene glycol, mineral oils, synthetic dyes, sulfates, PABA, titanium dioxide, nanoparticles (which can enter blodbane), and chemical UV absorbers. IT vegan and cruelty-free. How about it?

I know beauty bloggers nag our readers about the harmful effects of the Sun's rays. Many of us know by experience what Sun can make our skin. I will admit to a little (very little) sun exposure for a short period of time a few times/week can help us to maintain optimal vitamin d levels. Unfortunately, many of us are exposed to UVA/UVB rays in much longer periods than we need for our vitamin d levels-even though we are indoors. That is why we all must wear tattoos. Remember, you can take vitamin d supplements, if your doctor believes you need enough-just like me.

Suntegritys line history is inspiring and sad. Tricia Trimble mother died of cancer of the skin. After losing her mother to melanoma, she was a proponent of wearing sunscreen. However, most of tattoos on the market use chemical UV blockers and contain a lot of toxic ingredients, and it makes sense not to her to use these types of tattoos to prevent skin cancer only to get a different kind of cancer. After several years of research and study she decided to develop its own Sun care line that works from both the inside-out and outside-in. With a heartfelt mission and by means of an extremely knowledgeable and formulator chemist, was Tricias company, Suntegrity skin care, born. Tricias desire for us? "I hope you enjoy our products and smiling in the memory of a person you love each time you use them."

All Na tural Moisturizing face protection with SPF 30 come out of the container handy pump a little thick, and my first thought was that it can be difficult to use, leave me with a fat slick or hinder my makeup application. I was wrong! The product absorbs very fast and feel weightless, when it absorbs. It is not greasy at all and my makeup behaved perfectly over the ... This is a great sunscreen for you, whether you have chemical sensitivity or not. I am very impressed.

Suntegrity also offers a body moisturizer and a dietary supplements that contain vitamin D and some other good ingredients for your skin. I plan to try body moisturizer next.

You can find Suntegritys products, including this facial moisturizer on Suntegrity skincare, Amazon and other retailers listed on this link. I think you would like to Suntegrity. For those of you who have told me that you can't bear the most tattoos because of their chemical ingredients, this one can save you.

Chanel Rouge Coco Shine Boy

Sometimes we go beauty addicts to great lengths to get our hands on something new. It was the case for me with Chanels new Rouge Coco Shine Boy ($ 32). I had reserved it on my local Nordstrom when taught that Nordstrom would have them available on February 10. Then learned that none of the Nordstrom stores in my area would receive it so I called the store in Coral Gables, Florida, to order it-and it arrived right on time. I have unfortunately had to pay $ 10 for shipping to get a $ 32 lipstick. They sent the UPS in an envelope, making money on shipping (something that always annoys me).

Chanel's Rouge Coco Shine, the company's latest lip colours from Peter Philips, Chanels Creative Director for Makeup, is a fresh, delightfully sheer and illuminating new lipstick. Chanel has interrupted my old favorite, Aqualumiére, and it is its replacement. When I heard that Aqualumiére was history, started I buy any shades, I could find. I liked it so much I bought the shadows, there weren't t perfect. I could not imagine life without Aqualumiére. Now can. Rouge Coco Shine is a beautiful, lasting, moisturizing, sheer, shiny lip color with an incredible easy texture. It is completely different from Rouge Coco, a highly the lip color.

I am all about it, from thin tube to the mere Shine. This is a fabulous lipstick. I can't wait until April, when the line full of shades are available at Chanel counters.

Boy, a limited-release shadow, was launched for Valentine's day to honor a great love story. Boy is the nickname of Arthur "Boy" Capel, who was the love of Coco Chanels life, her partner and guardian angel. He called on the Cocos first venture into hat making, lending of her money to open her first milliner studio in 1910 on the rue Cambon in Paris. It was her romance with Boy Capel, who inspired male energy she put in her iconic wardrobe. She borrowed his pyjamas, jackets and straw lystsejlere and made them its own.

Boy is a lovely, warm rose shadow. I found my photo on the right indoor in direct light, but not full sunlight. It shows the gorgeous shade, and you can even watch beautiful glimpse. This is a definite keeper. I would buy another in April safe. I am also sure, I will do a "full time" through all shades of gray instant they arrive in stores. I am smitten.

We are fortunate that boy face in April. It has been taken on Chanels site. I do not know if you still can get your hands on it at Nordstrom. It was supposed to be available only from February 10 through 14.

Those who do not have tried body Sprays may be tempted to try one of the new products, such as body lotion with its moisturizing effects to improve the fragrance.

Fragrance of these products is an aromatherapy treat. It has an element of crisp, citrus freshness and another element, which I believe is floral. I do not know how to describe it further. It is called good because fragrance than-you'll go in the morning. Some people have written, that smell is unisex. I can understand this characterisation, but I think it is more feminine than masculine.

Central skin beauty dazzling collection for spring 2011

Clé de Peau Beauté La Beauté Éblouissante collection for spring is compact but rich. A loose translation of "éblouissante" is brilliant-a perfect description of colors.

There are two new Eye Color bottle, three new shades of Touche de Rouge lipstick (see feature below), and four new shades of Rouge à Lèvres (extra Rich lipstick). Today I would like to summarize the new colors. I think I have better swatch photos of Eye Color bottle than I took earlier this week.

Eye Color bottle ($ 55) is # 206 at the top of the photo to the left, and # 207. Overlay with Clé de Peau logo gives them a very classic look, but you lose these logos as soon as you use shadows. No matter is these sheer, garish hues luscious.

My Swatch photos were taken outdoors in full sun. Shadows were used with sponge-Tipped Applicators. The first quad, 206, are swatched to the right. The base color on the left side of the palette is displayed at the top, and I swatched from left to right (for both considered ds). Base shade is almost skin-tinted, so I had a very hard time to get it to show in the photos I snapped. Pan, it seems (to me) to be a little darker than my skin tone, but when it is used, it is pretty close. Hopefully you can see that it has a little more beige-pink in it than my skin has. Next the shade grey taupe, although it appears on the pan. On my skin translates it into a gorgeous, shimmering, light grey. Copper shade offers Punch to the palette. It coordinates perfectly with the narrow band of light, Camel Brown, is on the right of the palette and at the bottom of my photo. I get many combinations to explore as I wear these shadows.

The equally gorgeous 207 is shown on the left. Base shade, appears at the top of my arm is rose gold, and next the shadow below is a much lighter version of the. These are two of the most beautiful rose gold medals I have ever seen. The two shades of gray has a hint of ice blue, which makes them very interesting. Not these four shades coordinate beautifully?

There are four new Rouge à Lèvres ($ 60) nuances. Extra Rich Lipstick, inspired by nature's temptress, rose, creates a rich, creamy texture moisturizes lips intensely with each application. It is filled with ingredients numb lips, including vitamin a acetate, in order to avoid or reduce lines and retains moisture (create full, smooth-looking lips); and Clé de Peaus exclusive transparent red powder, a special pigment with spherical powders, makes it possible to preserve its vibrant, translucent color over time without dulling.

On top of, allows the diamond baguette you achieve an accurate and beautiful finish-as if the lipstick was applied with a lip brush. The corners of the shape baguette is designed to draw smooth, natural lines and fill the corners and edges of the lips.

The four new shades are R7 and R8 and T6 and T7. T6 and T7 was perfect for my coloring, so they live on my house now. They appear on my arm with T6 and T7 below at the top. My photo taken indoors in sunlight. In addition to being gorgeous, is these nuances saturated (without being opaque), shiny, and in my opinion gorgeous. The two I do not buy is in red family. I am partial to Ts. suit me fine.

I told about the new Touche de Rouge ($ 52) shades yesterday, so there is no sense in my gushing again. Just scroll down to read this feature or click here.

I am clearly smitten with La Clé de Peau Beauté Éblouissante collection for spring 2011. I feel like I stumble in a gold mine. Be sure to search for the new colors, when you go shopping by Nieman Marcus, Saks, Nordstrom, or where you buy Clé de Peau.

La Prairie color launches summer 2011: Bouquet de Jardin and Anti-Aging Hydra tint SPF 20

Last week, I was privileged to attend a blogger event at Neiman Marcus at Mazza Galleria. I came away with exciting information! I could not wait to share all news with you. There is way to much to tell you about La Prairie introductions to spring and summer (between now and may), so I break up my news in two (maybe three) posts. I really do not know how to prioritize the fabulous of gorgeous, so I will start with makeup and skin care move on later.

I met Raychel Wade, La Prairie color Ambassador, last year. Her charismatic personality, combined with her eye for color and simple techniques have earned her a loyal clientele. Raychel has assisted with the creation of former La Prairie color stories. This year, she created her own bouquet, the Jardin summer color. It is a fantastic collection. I wanted to leave Neiman Marcus with cream blushes, as both are drop-dead gorgeous.

Les Calla Lilies is a limited edition Cellular treatment Eye Colour Ensemble ($ 70). A quad with four coordinating shadows, all in a variation of the rose-red peony is beautiful on the skin. I played with them in the store, and I think these are colors, want to pander to a wide range of skin tones. As always offer La Prairie makeup benefits to the skin, in addition to beautiful color.

Finish your eyes, there is a limited-edition Luxe Eye Definer in Bronze ($ 50). Have a liner smudger on one end, which is useful. The shadow will coordinate with perfect Eye Colour Ensemble, but it is also a shadow on must carry with you all your neutral shades. I love the bronze liner conferences, and this is the cat's meow.

There are two new cellular Radiance Cream Blush ($ 70) tints, and both are lust-worthy. I was so sad that I had to wait months to get my hands on them.

The first shad e, shown on the left, is limited-edition purple glow, the darkest of two. Lighter shade Plum glow, shown below right, and it will be included in the permanent collection. Both shades will work for me.

Cellular Radiance Cream Blush is a luxurious, creamy blush, which mixes as a dream, so that you layer as much as you wish without caking or streaking. It is one of the best cream blushes I have ever used. The colors I own is exquisite, and it glides across my cheeks, even when used with the hand. At $ 70, animals, but the pan is very large, and the color is unparalleled. I am not sure how a freakish beauty addict could run out of it.

Limited edition Luxe Lip Definer in Petal Pink ($ 50) is one of the most beautiful pink lip liner I have seen recently. I think it will match m y lips perfectly, so I will buy it. With color at one end and a lip brush on the other, it would be a useful complement to makeup bag I keep with me at all times.

I am not surprised that Raychel has designed a dynamite collection. She know the color! For more information about Checking my feature on Raychel her written last April.

Not part of the Raychels collection, but also launch in may, is a nti-Aging Hydra tint SPF 20 ($ 100). This is an incredible, treatment-laden tinted moisturizer. It has a lot of pigment, so it offers more coverage than your typical tinted moisturizer. I tried it in the store, and I loved it! It will be available in four shades. Was the easiest, a yellow tilted ivory.

I have so much to tell you about La Prairie skin care. I have one product to test the new cellular Power Infusion. I want to start testing as tonight, so I will keep on featuring until I finish the vial. There is much more, however. I want to show you very soon, if not later today.

FOOL'S Velvet Gloss Lip pencils-part 2

FOOL'S Velvet Gloss Lip pencils ($ 24) have been talking about Twitter, and they have been involved in many blogs, including my and beauty look book (Sabrina wrote a three-part series; Click here for part 1). Buzz over these glorious lip "sticks" has been intense, with beauty gastric lusting for them or sharing shades they purchased. In my original order I bought two. Then when my Neiman Marcus got them in stock, I purchased two more. Today I would like to update my original function by showing my latest shades.

First, a «Quais. These are glossy lip pencils with a smooth, buttery texture. The coat lips with stunning, glossy, nicely the color and moisturizing ingredients including vitamin E, hyaluronic acid spheres and phytosterol esthers. They do not contain the bad actors, we all like to avoid, like phthalates, sulfates, Parabens, petrochemicals and synthetic fragrances. They are so much nicer, in my opinion, than the matte pencils, FOOL'S introduced earlier. I would like a little shine, so I definitely biased against Velvet lustre pencils.

My first two was Baroque and new love. You can see swatches here. My other two are Frivolous and Club Mix. I am delighted with them; they are very different shades from my previous selections.

Frivolous appears at the top of my arm with Club Mix below. My photo taken indoors in sunlight. Frivolous is a very natural peachy-pink-nude shade. It can be the easiest of them all. It is perfect for a casual look. Club Mix is a plum-grape-rose mixture. Lips, which has a little color, it's a little darker.

I think all four of the shades I purchased fabulous. I would recommend these lip pencils to all. They are gorgeous colors, has a perfect amount of Shine and feel great on my lips. Prolonged is also their color.

You can buy them at the FOOL'S site, Sephora, and your FOOL'S counter now. I bought my first two at Sephora and my other two at Neiman Marcus.

Person skilled in the art of beauty Smoldering Embarkment Eye Kit

There is no doubt in my mind that Le Métier de Beautés latest Kaleidoscope eyes were never intended to create a multidimensional, seductive, smoky eye. Shades smolder, as it is called perfect. In Smoldering Embarkment Eye Kit ($ 95) has four shadows, all very different, which is perfect for layering and blending mode to create a smoky eye.

I called at Bergdorf Goodman to order my Dustin Lujan, Le Métier de Beauté national makeup artist fantastic. I had seen an advance peek at Fab over forty. I had expected to ship on Monday. Yesterday, I was excited to read the notification on The Gaias Non-blond, which sent me to a greater State of anticipation. Hours later, arrived via my UPS. In spite of the fact that I often do not create a smoky eye (I keep a relatively dull life), in be happy to come to this eye kit when I want some drama.

Gaia had names for shadows, so I use her names. All shades of it. My Swatch photo taken indoors in sunlight. I have used shadows using sponge-Tipped Applicators.

The upper shadow, first love is ba see shadow in the palette, and it is seems to be a very light, skin-tinted beige in compact. On my skin, it has a white rollebesætningen, which makes it a perfect highlighter. Next the shadow, love hit, see Brown in pan. On the contrary, it is a vibrant dark khaki with Golden shimmer. To a swipe of my right arm was created with one passport for imprinting system! I must remember that when I use it, with a brush and swiped across pan with very less pressure.

The shadow of the kit must be red, in love, is actually an orange-copper on my skin (pfew!). Shades in this family bring out Blue in my eyes, so I want to play with it with a light hand. The shadow reminds me of Enrichissant from Le Cirque Kaleidoscope, which looked just scary on the pan.

The bottom shadow, Lovelorn, may be my favorite. It seems to be a clean coal on the pan. On my skin adopt it a hint of brown. With its silvery sparkle believe it is a chameleon. I suspect it will be a bit different at all.

I have not had the Kaleidoscope long enough to work with it to discover its potential, but I know Le Métier de Beauté good now. I know there are enchanting secrets to be discovered through experimentation.

Le Métier de Beauté true color Eyeshadows offer versatility, superior blendability and great color pay-off. They are ulta-fine powder shadows that cling to the skin and eternal. They offer adjustable coverage from the very real to the intensely-all up to you and your hand. Interesting is the (me), they are never exactly the color I expect when I look at Panning in the store-or even at home. On the skin, they are transformed into shades that find a way to pander to, even when I have my doubts. I do not know how they do it!

Le Métier de Beauté has build a Web site, and I discovered this morning that it is now in live. Gals without access to a counter can surf and window shop. Nr Embarkment was introduced to February, and so far it has not arrived at Neiman Marcus. I do not know if Nordstrom has it either. I think the only place you can get it now at Bergdorf Goodman. No one knows Neiman Marcus has been able to tell me, if or when it becomes available. So give the counter Bergdorf Goodman a call, if you want one. Save number is (212) 753-7300. Shipping was $ 12.50, but there was no tax.

FOOL'S tainted love set

FOOL'S has made some fabulous set of this season, no nicer than tainted Love Set ($ 59). A $ 78 value Tained love will ignite your passion for pink. Angelika Lip Gloss associates with a new, limited edition Angelika more to baggrundsmaterialer your eyes, lips, and cheeks in a cotton candy hue with garish silver and gold sparkles. In order to coordinate your nails make a statement wit h vibrant, shocking pink Schiap. A $ 80 value, Tained love was irresistible-for me-and I wear normally not nail varnish. Nail varnish to a good home. I had add Angelika Multiple to my collection.

Is a photo of each piece located in packaging-before I pulled them out and began to play on the left. These are not mingy little samples-you get a lot for your money.

Angelika Multiple Lip Gloss and appear on my arm below right. My photo taken in sunlight indoors. I used both products directly from their pipes, and I mix not out multiple.

You can see the beautiful sparks in Angelika Multiple color swatch to the right. You also see some brilliance from the sunlight gleaming on the arm, but there is absolutely micro-sparks in the color. Not too many, not enough to make you look like a disco ball-but they are visible. Angelika Lip Gloss, part of the collection spring 2011 is a beautiful, cool-tinted candy pink. It has a lot of pigment, which will provide you with color without lipstick underneath. Nice pinks!

I doubt I need tell beauty gastric on multiple or FOOL'S Lip Gloss. Multiple is François fool's ' original multipurpose stick for eyes, Cheeks, lips and body. I have just about every color. Lip Gloss is an acquired taste. When you acquire it, you will discover yourself acquires a lot of beautiful glosser!

Here's another shot (left) with much less sunlight on my arm. Hopefully you can see the wealth of girly-girl pinks. They are very flattering.

Nail varnish coordinates beautifully with multiple and Lip Gloss. FOOL'S nail varnish is free of toluene, formaldehyde and DBP. It still gave me a jolt of scent when I have used it, but that "unpleasantness" went very quickly away.

It is a long time since I used in Polish. I stop not because of fragrance compounds; I stopped, because wearing nail varnish was incompatible with gardening. FOOL'S nail varnish offers a long-wearing formula that provides a hard, durable chip-resistant finish and has added ultraviolet protection to prevent Polish discolouration. Who knows? Maybe if I had tried it, while I active gardening, would not I have sworn off Polish, which is usually chipped on the first day I wore it.

Schiap appears on my nails to the right. This picture was also taken indoors in bright light. I dedicate all practicable, Scotch tape, so I painted a stripe on my nails (and removed it with Deborah Lippmann The Stripper). It is one Passport on my nails. It covers good, but you could add a second coat for more vibrant color. Polish is an elegant and glossy pink-guaranteed to draw attention to your hands or toes!

What do you think? I love this set-even the Polish (I have to remember to give its promised the recipient). Bought my tainted Love set at Neiman Marcus, where it sold out instant it arrived. It is also available on the FOOL'S site and Nordstrom.

Chantecaille Sea Turtle palette for spring 2011

I must be a, if the happiest gals on Earth! My Chantecaille sea turtle palette ($ 79) arrived! Second reason my UPS guy showed up around seven hours earlier than usual. Think he knew how much I wanted this palette? Do you think he sensed that it would make my day, when he delivered the while th e sun was still out? I love this guy!

I tore into the box, shipping, and before I found a pretty gold box with the theme the hawksbill turtle. Then I tore into the box to find a elegant gunmetal gray case holding four gorgeous colors-two eye shades to reflect new spring neutral Golden heat, a deep sea green eye-defining shadow and a peachy-pink cheek color, that will be universally flattering. My photo of the palette was taken indoors in direct light, but not sunlight. The base color is not as pink as it appears in my photo below. Use Chantecaille photo above as your guide for shades.

I took faster than you can say "love" sponge-Tipped Applicators, and started the Swatch. At that time, there have been a swoon. Not sure if it was a real swoon or pills I had taken about 20 minutes earlier (such is life for a patient after surgery). Either way this palette is swoon-worthy.

My first swatch photo to the left was taken outside in direct sunlight. I have used each shadow with a sponge-Tipped Applicator-even blush shade. I wanted to collect enough product to show you the appropriate swatches. I am not quite happy with these photos, so I'll try in different lighting to get better. I could not just wait to show you my "make-my-day" moments. I wanted to share the joy!

My second photo on the right was broken when the Sun dipped behind a cloud. While the light was bright, there was no Sun glinting off my arm. I think the colors are Forsyningspligtydelseskonceptet in the first photo-with the Sun. Cheek color displays above as a peachy-pink, as it is.

I swatched clockwise, starting at the upper-left corner with the base color, move to the brown eye color, then to the incredibly complex "eye definer" and ends with cheek color. All applicable beautifully, including the base color, a golden beige. The eye-define coal green shading is drop-dead gorgeous.

These colors were composed with the finest pearl and pigment particles to create a natural, satin, sheer veil on the skin with a glowing effect. Unfortunately, turtles (and gold "overspray") disappear with use, so I will buy another palette to my makeup museum, which is filled with all the Chantecailles treasures.

Chantecaille donate 5% of the proceeds from the sale to WIDECAST sea turtle palettes in order to ensure the survival of sea turtles. Sea turtles are threatened. They define all that is old and magic on our planet, but they are threatened and struggling to survive. Their numbers have been seriously reduced from historical levels. Persistent exploitation, particularly of adult females at nesting beaches and widespread collection of eggs is mainly responsible for depleted status of the Caribbean species. In addition to the intentional harvesting conquered turtles accidentally in active or abandoned fishing gear, resulting in the deaths of tens of thousands of sea turtles each year. It makes my heart break. On top of that, have coral reefs and sea grass degradation, oil spills, chemical waste, plastics and other marine debris, high-density coastal development and an increase in ocean tourism damaged or removed nesting beaches and feeding areas.

Sea turtles shared once the Earth with dinosaurs, and they have been quiet Evolutionary participants æonerne. Among the most migratory of all creatures touches the hearts and the economies of more than 100 Nations. Chantecaille honour of impressive beauty and stature of these gentle giants with this sea turtle palette.

Company partnership with Dr. Karen Eckert of WIDECAST, which is focused on saving sea turtles in the Caribbean waters. They have a vision to realize a future as sea turtles and people can coexist, with turtles survive and thrive. Check out WIDECAST, and together with me Pat Chantecaille for its continued commitment to support marine wildlife, while introducing lust-worthy makeup.

You can pu rchase palette sea turtle by Chantecailles site. It will arrive Chantecaille counters soon. I will wait on the palettes to arrive Neiman Marcus, so I can support my favorite SA and Chantecaille rep when I buy my second one.

Update: here's another swatch photo to the left. I took it right before the clouds began to get thicker. You decide whether it is better than the sunny photo above.
