Colored Clay CC Primers! This new product applies to the skin easily, in a chunky crayon-like format. This CC Primer is available in five shades: fair, light, medium, tan, and deep. But there’s a twist! Colored Clay CC Primer also contains a purple highlighting shade to brighten the appearance of the complexion, and a green shade to neutralize redness.
Tarte Colored Clay CC Primer Review
If you have nearly-perfect skin, you can use this new primer stand-alone, as a glorified concealer. Personally, I use it as a first step prior to applying foundation and a powder. I love how this primer neutralizes the redness that I battle daily, with ease! Because the colored clays are kept separate in the product like adorable colorful wedges, you can also focus application on one shade more than another, depending on your complexion needs.

Laura Mercier has so much to offer, even the most critical beauty lover would find something to love. Laura Mercier Smooth Finish Foundation Powder (photographed above in shade 03) features a powder foundation in the top layer of the compact, which flips upward toward the compact mirror to reveal an application sponge.
This particular shade of powder has a hint of pink, so it’s great for gals with a bit of pink undertone. This powder foundation delivers some great coverage, and I noticed immediately that it cancels the redness my cheeks, a huge pro! The finish is simply matte perfection.
Retail price is $45.
Retailers include LauraMercier.com, Macys.com, Ulta.com Sephora.com.

MAC Prep+Prime Beauty Balm Shade Extension
[button link=”https://www.ragingrouge.com/about-raging-rouge/raging-rouge-llc-disclosures” target=”_blank” rel=”nofollow” color=”RR” shape=”rounded” size=”small” align=”right”]Press Sample[/button]True story: in the late 90s, I couldn’t find a foundation to match my skin! Back then, my skin was the picture of perfection, and looked like alabaster. I visited counter after counter, and couldn’t find a shade pale enough to look natural! Once I finally found a brand that offered the perfect match for my skintone, I was so utterly angry at the other brands, I purchased items ONLY FROM THAT BRAND for years. I was fiercely loyal, as I knew they created cosmetics with consideration to my complexion.
MAC must be aware of this phenomenon, as they recently announced a shade extension to their permanent Prep+Prime Beauty Balm collection. Six new shades of skin perfection have been added ranging from light to dark, and this beauty-lover is thrilled to hear it! [Read more…] about MAC Prep+Prime Beauty Balm Shade Extension
