M.A.C. Cosmetics Ungaro Collection

Here is a pretty limited edition collection and look form MAC Cosmetics—The Ungaro Collection. Designer, Esteban Cortazar, celebrity makeup artist, Sharon Dowsett, and M·A·C came together backstage to create this collection in the spirit of today’s Ungaro.

I gave the eyeshadow shade mineral a try, which is a beautiful soft brown. Weell pigmented and long lasting, as is the norm for M.A.C. shadows.

I also adored the cream colour base in fresh morning. It is designed for use on lips and cheeks, but I love it as a highlight shade on my brow bone. I also have been using it as a cheek highlight. If you like delicate pink shades for highlights, this is a must have item!

Redpoint Airbrush Effects Blushwhip

Redpoint cosmetics airbrush effects blushwhip So far, I love just about everything I have tried from Redpoint cosmetics. The Airbrush Effects Blushwhip continues that trend.

Redpoint Blushwhip is a fluffy cream blush, hence the “whip” in the name. The blush is lightly moisturizing, which makes me think that I will like it even more when winter comes and my skin gets dry. It blends well and the color payoff is very good–so good in fact that I use only the tiniest amount on my pale skin. Because of the high pigment factor combined with a light, blendable textrue, I think this one could work for just about any skin tone. Those with light skin tones can use a small amount and those with darker skin tones can build color as needed.

Overall, this is a very nice cream blush!

Kryolan Trio Blusher Set

Kryolan Trio Blush Set
Kryolan makes professional and theatrical makeup, but it can be a great source for personal cosmetics as well. Something I particularly like is the new Trio Blusher Set. It contains three quite different, but all useable shades.
kryolan Lip Rouge Palette
Also nice is the Lip Rouge Set. Available in five different color combinations, the pallets contain five lip shades that are fairly opaque, with a large amount of pigment. I found them good for when a lot of color is desired.

Kryolan products are sold at various locations throughout North America and Internationally. Interested readers can call 800.KRYOLAN to find a nearby retailer.

Stila Cherry Crush Lip and Cheek Stain

I tend to be a big Stila fan. Their items are expensive, but the quality is usually incredible. Stila’s entry into the area of lip and cheek stain is no different. This is simply one good quality stain.

The picture below is taken in sunlight and shows the stain applied both thickly and thinly. Note that my skin is very pale, especially on my arm! So on most people the stain will not be quite that vivid:

100_5273
The stain itself is a nice berry red that, like most stains, looks quite natural in appearance on the lips, especially if applied lightly. On my pale cheeks, I needed to use a very light touch, but liked the shade quite a bit.The stain did take a bit longer than some to dry when I tested it, but it then lasted well. The applicator is also wonderful. If you are familiar with Stila’s lipglazes, it is the same applicator–a built in brush that the product is twisted/clicked up into. I love that type of design, but do be careful not to overload the brush!

I count this one as another big winner from Stila!
