cK Calvin Klein Makeup Launches!

It's finally here! cK's revamped makeup line is now at Sephora.com.
Contrary to the line that we were introduced to a few years ago that featured neutral and muted tones, the re-vamp has bolder colors that have extras to help the skin.

While in France I had the chance to try the Delicious Pout Flavored Lipgloss in Pastel Gold and was pleasantly surprised! The texture was not as sticky as expected and the packaging makes for great application. Its nice because the gloss doesn't stick to a fuzzy or doefoot applicator.

Though I still haven't seen the line in the Sephora stores yet, it's great that its now available online.

Happy Belated Birthday to..

Us!

That's right! I've been uber-excited with Beauty, Fashion (and staying warm) that I forgot ( a la the family in sixteen candles) our birthday!!

With that, Happy Birthday to us and 2008 will be great!

MAC's N Collection

It's Back to the Neutrals! And more of your favourite Mineral Skin Finishes.
The first collection to kick-off 2008 will be the N collection. It enovkes beiges, pinks and browns to hi-light and enhance what you have.
The collection is set to release on January 17th, and the buzz will be all about the MSF Natural which now comes in some in-between shades that should suit everyone.

I feel that it is about time that MAC incorporated neutral bases, the ones they have now are for the Face and Body Makeup. NC's and NW's are a bit too extreme with nothing in between ( Plus, NW foundations makes me look like an Oompa Loompa ).

Prescriptives- Technotropics Spring'08

Can we say Juicy!

Prescriptives's spring makeup collection, Technotropics connects brights with wearability, unlike some spring collections I have seen where your eyes and lips are the same vibrant colors.

What I'm liking so far is the Blush More or Less cheek color colours. Extremely portable, easy to use and in beautiful shades.
Thai Orchid will be mine!

Maybelline's Mineral Makeup

Cruising through target, I saw a display for Maybelline's new Mineral Makeup line. It's complete with Powder, Foundation and Concealer. I didn't get a chance to test drive it out due to the fact that they didn't have my shade available the location ( but Tomiko is one of their models so there is hope).

Anyone try this out yet?
