Holiday gift ideas: Givenchy Very Couture Palette

| 1 Comment
Update: The price of the palette has been dropped to $45! givenchyverycouture.jpg

This is the best palette for both bag and beauty snobs alike.  You get the super stylish Givenchy grommet clutch plus the palette of gorgeous shadows, blushes and lip color!  I've always loved the Givenchy prism shadows and powders, they're easy to blend to create the depth of colors you desire. 

The prisms also last forever, my last Givenchy bronzing prism lasted me two years.  I know, I know, you're supposed to toss them after a year but I was told toss it if it smells and since mine didn't, I kept it.  

The Very Couture Palette is $65 and it's one of my favorite Holiday gift sets this year!  Someone call Santa!    Givenchy at Sephora.com

UPDATE: Congratulations to winner Nicole Carneal of Baltimore, MD.!

envelope_popquiz.jpgWin this fabulous Glamour Envelope from Senna Cosmetics. It will transform your morning routine as it did mine! These gorgeous and vibrant shadows are all you need, plus it has 6 blushes, a bronzing duo and shimmering powder. It is so fun to play with all the colors of this palette and now you have a chance to win one for yourself.

To win, name this actress on Heroes, a show that uses Senna Cosmetics for their long grueling shoots, yet everyone always look fabulous even after a long day of battling evil. I love that she wears too much makeup on the show because she is a teenager (hello, lighten up on the mascara, please!) - well, we've all made that mistake at that age! But in this season, they show her in the future when she is older and her makeup is noticeably more "grown up". Please put your answer in comments by this Sunday Oct. 26th at 11:59pm EST. One entry per person please and make sure to include your email address in the email box in the form. This prize is worth $99. A big huge Thanks to Senna Cosmetics for sponsoring this Pop Quiz!

Senna Cosmetics "The Glamour Envelope"

| 25 Comments

I just got this all inclusive palette and can now retire my entire drawer full of make up.  Ok, maybe not the entire drawer but at least my life has been simplified quite a bit.  My normal routine is to search for all the little compacts and round Mac shadows that I want to use, spread it all over my counter which make a giant mess.  The convenience of a huge palette is obvious but that is not the best part of this.  It is the quality of the shadows!  Senna is the Hollywood insiders secret to saturated pigment and long wear.  The colors go on true because there is such a high concentration of the actual pigment, not fluff or plain talc here.  See that teal?  That is exactly what it looks like on, you can make it totally solid and dramatic.  At the end of the day, you look as fresh as when you first applied.  That is why Hollywood make up artists use this line.  Ugly Betty and Heroes use them exclusively.  I love to play with all the different looks that can be achieved, it actually comes with a guide for 6 looks including "Nude" a natural look great for daytime; "Innocence," a fresh and vibrant look; and "Night Queen," sultry and dramatic - perfect for a night out.  It also comes with their totally amazing Sun & Sand Bronzing Duo, it not only is the most natural bronzer I've used, the darker shade is perfect for contouring with completely seamless and natural results.  The Shimmering Face Powder is the greatest secret tool as a highlighter.  I use it right under my eyes to create depth and brightness as well as contrast against my cheekbones.  It makes the biggest difference with such a subtle look.  This magnetic closure envelope is $99 at Senna Cosmetics.

Fakin' it with Fresh Island Reverie

| 4 Comments
FR_11888279_h_pu.jpg Ooooh, I love using make up to create the "fresh off the island" look (because you all know I spent the weekend at Laguna beach under an umbrella with a giant nerdy hat on while my golden hued gorgeous blonde friends basked in the rays) and this new palette from Fresh will give me that Hawaiian girl look I so love!   Fresh Island Reverie Face Palette has 3 yummy eye shades: Rum, a rich brown infused with a dense pink shimmer; Plumeria, a shimmery shell pink; and Tiare, a sheer champagne to highlight. The blush is a flattering coral formulated with crushed pearls (and you thought pearls were just for wearing around your neck!?!? My grandmother used to eat heaping spoonfuls of crushed pearls!) that will give your cheeks a youthful vibrant glow, slap the radiant natural bronzer all over and voila-- instant two weeks on the islands without the travel drama or sun damage. Fresh Island Reverie Face Palette $55 at eLuxury.com
