MAC Yin And Yang With Cremesheen
MAC Cremesheen was introduced as part of the permanent product collection at MAC this September. I recently had the opportunity to sample some of these lipsticks, and was floored at how emollient and rich they feel on the lips.
These extremely luxe lipsticks provide bright color and glamorous shine. The lightweight consistency feels more like a gloss than a lipstick. So which shade to buy, when there are so many to choose from? Raging Rouge is torn between the extremes at the moment–the Yin and Yang, if you will. The naked/neutral shades are to die for, especially Modesty, a two-shades-darker than flesh shade mixed with a touch of pink. The red shades are so luxe and glamorous, you'll understand why lipstick is the product that put MAC on the map.
Retail is $14.

Fall 2008 Trends: Neutral Eyes
Trends come and trends go… but neutral shades are always "in". This seasons browns range from sparkling champagnes to deep, ashen chocolates. Here are some great choices for the perfect neutral eye this season.
Looking for a feather-light eyeshadow that glides on like silk? Benefit Silky Powder Eyeshadow is the solution. Part of the Love Your Look collection, these shadows are amazingly refined. No need to worry about creasing! They wear well, and the shade "soft shoulder" is a warm medium brown that creates a gorgeous neutral eye. Retail price is $18. Click HERE to buy these shadows from Benefit Cosmetics. | |
Who says matte equals flat? Urban Decay's matte shadow collection proves that shadow can be dramatic without the shimmer. This Fall, Urban Decay launched "Shakedown" pictured at left. This matte shade is a gorgeous mushroom brown color. This shade is equally perfect to add drama to your office look, or to wear to an evening event! Urban Decay Matte Eyeshadow retails for $16, and can be found at Urban Decay and Sephora.com and Beauty.com. | |
I've written about BECCA's Ultimate Mascara in the past. I was so excited to hear that this Fall Becca has added a new shade of mascara to the "ultimate" family! This bronze mascara is a deep chocolate brown with just a hint of metallic shimmer. Best of all is that it's tubing technology makes it impervious to smudging. Retail price is $24. Check it out at the BECCA website. | |
TINte recently introduced the Match Book. Three palette shades take the guess work out of creating a smoky eye, a blushing complexion, or a beautiful neutral eye. Each palette retails for a mere $28, and includes two eye shadows, a dreamy cream eyeliner, blush and two lip shades. The "Natural Beauty" palette comes with 2 applicator brushes, and step-by-step instructions on how to achieve that perfect, neutral look! Click HERE to check it out at TINte cosmetics. | |
This Fall, tarte has expanded their emphasEYES eye pencil from one color (the original emphasEYES is black) to four! Options like green and plum are super-fun, but the classic brown shade named "chocolate" is the one you'll turn to over and over again. Use this pencil on the inner rims of the eyes for a dramatic smoky brown eye, or on the outside for a natural, minimalistic look. Retails for $18 at tarte online, Sephora.com and Beauty.com. | |
CARGO recently expanded their PlantLove brand (previously only lipsticks) to an entire line of cosmetics… eyeshadow, bronzer, illuminator, eye pencils, lip pencils and so much more! PlantLove is made with the finest natural and organic ingredients and free of parabens, phthalates, petrochemicals, and synthetic dyes and fragrances. The shadows are high- pigment and long-wearing. The shade "Pelican" is a gorgeous, pale champagne that works as a fantastic base shade for a shimmery neutral eye. CARGO's PlantLove shadow retails for $20, and can be found at Sephora.com |
