If you’re like me (and most women), you probably have your “go to” makeup shades that you wear almost every day. Sometimes, you have to step outside your comfort zone and play with some new colors. You never know – you just might find a new favorite!
Add a pop of color to your eyes with INGLOT’s new Colour Play Eyeliner, in 6 FUN shades. These eye-catching eyeliners have a creamy, but long-lasting texture. Each comes with a built-in sharpener. You can rock a super colorful look a la Phyrra.net, or you can blend the colors in with your eyeshadow for a more subtle look. Also, check out the Inglot eyeshadows I reviewed recently.
OCC’s Crème Color Concentrate is a multi-use product that can be used on the eyes, lips and cheeks. I am in love with this orange shade, “Newt” (on my lips in the pic above). I also tried it as an eyeshadow and although I LOVE the color, the formula is too creamy for me and doesn’t stay put on my (already oily) lids (below pic – OCC Creme Colour in Newt and Inglot pink eyeliner).
Below are also some application techniques from Courtney Tichman, Brand Manager for OCC:
- For a Monochromatic look apply Grandma Crème Colour Concentrate on the apples of the cheeks with OCC’s Foundation Brush #002. Using OCC’s Short Shader Brush #006 apply Grandma Crème Colour Concentrate to the lids of the eyes blending up into the crease. To finish the look add Grandma Crème Color Concentrate to the lips using OCC’s Precision Lip Brush #010.
- Apply Crème Color Concentrate in Cthulhu to eye lids as a base to camouflage any redness before applying a power shadow.
- Use Trick Crème Color Concentrate with OCC Foundation Brush #002 to emphasize the contours of the face.
- For an easy ombre lip, line with Grandma Crème Colour Concentrate with OCC’s Precision Lip Brush #010. Then simply fill the lip in using Newt Crème Color Concentrate
The new Marvelous Moxie lipsticks by bareMinerals run the range from neutral (my usual look) to fiery red! They go on creamy and are long-lasting. The packaging is cool. A slide button keeps the top from coming off in your purse (how many times has that happened to you?).
An infusion of minerals revitalizes lips for a healthy-looking pout, while a moisture-loaded hydrating complex helps to nourish and condition with abyssinian oil and omega fatty acids for supple, baby-soft smoothness. An encapsulated vitamin A, C and E complex helps to deliver antioxidant defense from the sun.
The lipsticks also have matching Marvelous Moxie lip liners and lip glosses. Wear them together or one at a time.
