Philosophy The Supernatural Makeup Collection

Monday, September 21st, 2009

I tend to think of Philosophy for skin care, but the company has a new makeup collection out that focuses on skin friendly products for a natural look. All products are formulated with antioxidants and are free of Parabens, Phthalates, Talcs, and Sulfates. On the whole, it is a pretty impressive collection. One of the best items is the Philosophy The Supernatural Coloring Book™ . This adorable palette comes in a cute magnetic case and includes two neutral/natural eye shadow shades, two lip shades, a blush/bronzer, and two blushes–one powder and one cream. The items wear pretty well, and the shadows have pretty good pigment. The case and swatches are below.

Perhaps my favorite item in the collection is the Philosophy The Supernatural Lit From Within™ Healthy Cream Blush.  I tend to love cream blushes and this one, shown below in the shade Feel Warm All Over, is a nice peachy pink shade. It is high pigment, so if you are fair like me, a little goes a long way. If you are darker skinned and need extra pigment, this one should also hold up well for you.

The collection also includes an illuminating powder that I adore: Philosophy The Supernatural Moonlight™ Natural Illuminating Powder is a light finish powder with light reflectors and enhancers for an illuminating glow. It doesn’t look too shiny and does a nice job of providing an overall glowing look.  My only complaint about it is that it has a sponge applicator, which isn’t my favorite way to apply powder.

Overall, this is an impressive collection. For a look that Philosophy The Supernatural Lipgloss from the collection take a look at my review on Girl Gloss!

I rather like these various images of New York Fashion Week from Getty Images at PicApp.  I adore the yellow dress below. Unfortunately, the picture does not explain its origin.

Seeing Turquoise at New York Fashion Week

Thursday, September 17th, 2009

I love the color turquoise and am getting excited to see it all over the place at New York Fashion Week for spring 2010! I want this bag, seen at Davidelfin!

I love this little dress from Cynthia Steffe.

There is obviously many more colors meshing with the turquoise in this BCBG dress, making for a lovely mix of color. this is probably my favorite dress seen so far.

From the Teen Vogue Fashion’s Night Out Show.

The celebrities are wearing it too. Here is signer Amerie at the BCBG show.
