A New Year and A New Beautiful You! This Section is Getting A Make-Over And Will Be Complete Very Soon!
~ NARS ~
There are several products by Nars that I love. Above is The Multiple.....simply stated.... in is one product that serves multiple purposes. I use different colors for different parts of my face.....the darkest is Palm Beach. It is a dark brown that is good for contouring my cheekbones...and a nice color in the crease of the eyelid. Riviera and Orgasm are lovely pinks for the cheeks. For a great highlighter...anywhere on the face or eyes....Maldives works perfectly. It is a cream to powder formula that rolls on easily or an be brushed on. $37.00 at Beauty.com
~ Trish McEvoy Eye Base Essentials ~
Hey bright eyes! I have always known that eyeshadow needs some sort of base or' primer applied first. In doing so...shadow will wear longer without ever creasing. The very best of all of the bases or primers I have tried is Trish McEvoy's. Perfect as a base and even better when worn alone. I love to wake up in the morning and brush on a dab to give my eyes an awake look. I have tried three of the four colors. Hands down...Soft Peach is my favorite. It is the brightest of all of the colors...and you can actually see it. The only negative I have to say is....I go through a tube rather fast! I can't imagine being without it. $24 at SpaLook.com

~ Benefit Cosmetics ~
Brow Zings...love the name and the product! This is the product I use on my eyebrows. Without it...not only do my brows look out of sorts...but my face does not complete. I have been using this product for years...and by the way...one kit lasts me a year. It won Allure magazine's beauty award for "Best Brow" product in 2008. The kit includes:
Kit contains:
pigmented wax for shaping 1.7g Net wt. 0.06 oz
natural-shaded powder for setting 2.65g Net wt. 0.09 oz.
discreet tweezers
hard angle brush
blending brush
mirror
complete lesson
In all honesty ..I do love this product....everything but the tweezers...but they are cute and come in handy in a pinch.
Stila's Kitten Eye Shadow is my perfect color for the entire lid. It is a shimmering nude pink. Don't be afraid of the word "shimmer." There is no glitter or anything gaudy about this shadow. There is a wonderful sheen to it....that makes my eyes look awake. $18 at Beauty.com
~ Kate Somerville ~
Kate Somerville's Deep Tissue Repair With Peptide KS is the face cream I am currently using. My thoughtful husband purchased it at Christmas for me. Don't worry......he wasn't being rude.....I gave him a not so subtle hint that I wanted it. I had used it before and loved the results I received. This is what Kate Somerville states about the cream:
Anti-Aging/All skin types
Notice a dramatic difference in skin texture & moisture balance after one use!
Helps to reduce depth, density, & volume of wrinkles
Deeply penetrates for ultimate cell recovery
Instantly smoothes & corrects rough, dry & flaky areas
Prevents water loss & maintains the skin?s natural moisture
Massages in without leaving a film or residue
Restores a firm, healthy & elastic complexion
This is what I say:
You need only a tiny amount for each use. Two weeks into use....my skin texture feels firmer. My lines are starting to fade ever so slightly...nothing major yet. And I love the push button delivery system of the container. It is expensive. $150......if you can afford it......I think this is the one cream that is worth a try....especially at 20% off (Shhh!

~ Phyto ~
If you want to pump up the volume on your hairstyle....this product is for you! I always have a good hair day when using Phyto's Phytovolume Actif. It instantly adds bounce and body to my hair. It works better than any other product I have tried. It is pricey at $28 for 4.22 oz. But if you want something that is guaranteed to fluff you up...it may be worth it. Apothica.com
