WetnWild Speedgloss Energizing Lip Shine
Thursday, November 19th, 2009
Did you know that you should throw lip gloss out after 9 months? Chances are, you have some tubes in your makeup bag that are way past the point of expiration. We refreshed our own lip gloss supply with WetnWild Speedgloss Energizing Lip Shine. There is no wand to mess around with, or pot to stick your finger in, you just simply squeeze the tube and apply the gloss like lipstick.
The texture is pleasantly smooth, no stickiness. Speedgloss also has a lot of shimmer, so it has intense shine. The ingredients contain Gingko Bilboa, Ginseng, Guarana, Acai, Vitamin E, and peppermint. Antioxidants protect your lips from aging. Our favorite shade was Frenzied, it’s difficult to find a flattering shade of gold gloss and this is it!

CoverGirl Lashblast Volume Blasting Mascara
Wednesday, November 18th, 2009
If you like false eyelashes then you will love CoverGirl Lashblast Volume Blasting Mascara. It gives the look of dramatic eyelashes in just one coat. We found that we didn’t have to use multiple layers to get the volume we wanted. Another plus is that it removes easily with soap and water so you don’t have spend your evenings removing your eye makeup. It’s hypoallergenic so contact lens wearers can join in the fun too.

WetnWild i-Sparkle Eyeshadow
Wednesday, November 18th, 2009
Most women want only a bit of shimmer and don’t want to end up looking like they’re glittering up for a rave. WetnWild i-Sparkle Eyeshadow has a selection of eyeshadow quartets that brighten the eyes with a subtle shimmer.
Each quartet comes with an ingenious sliding mirror that makes application a cinch and a really fun design. Our favorite shade was 141 Galatic Realm. Although the colors may look intense, they do not deposit a lot of pigment (think a step higher than sheer).

Mineral makeup has a ton of benefits, but it definitely has room for improvement in the available selection of shades. If you can’t find the perfect for shade for your skin but want the benefits of mineral powder, you may want to try the WetnWild BeautyBenefits Fresh Effects Mineral Veil in the translucent shade.
This loose powder is for all skin types. It hides shine in your oily areas but also minimizes the appearance of lines and pores.

WetnWild BeautyBenefits Dual Effects Lip Pencil
Tuesday, November 17th, 2009
The WetnWild BeautyBenefits Dual Effects Lip Pencil glides on smoothly and blends well, but they also added something extra. On the other side of the pencil there is a balm that plumps and conditions the lips with botanical extracts. All of the lip pencil colors are natural looking, matte shades (we liked the Raisin shade the most). The order of operation is balm, liner, then lipstick or gloss. We don’t suggest trying to use the liner all over, it’s a bit too dry to try to use it as a lipstick as well. The balm has a nice lightweight texture that went perfectly under our lip color.

Physician’s Formula Organic Wear Bronzing Veil
Saturday, November 14th, 2009
Bronzer is now a part of nearly every woman’s make up routine, but if worn incorrectly it can look muddy or altogether fake. Most people look their best in a yellow based matte powder without sparkles. Physican’s Formula has such a bronzer; their Organic Wear
Bronzing Veil not only gives your skin a natural tan glow, it has a ton of benefits as well.
Women with sensitive skin or acne are going to love this. The bronzer is free of harsh chemicals, synthetic preservatives or colors, parabens, and synthetic fragrances. 100% of the ingredients are natural. Organisoy evens out skin tone and texture, and Eco-Olive serves as an anti-oxidant to protect your skin from the environment. You don’t have to worry about the powder drying all out your face; safflower seed oil and jojoba seed oil moisturize the skin. We actually noticed a visible improvement in our skin the same day we used it.
If you are as impressed by the improvement in your skin as we were you might want to also try the Translucent Organics, which you can wear all over by itself or to set your foundation. Organic Wear Bronzing Veil is packaged in an automatic flow through natural goat hair brush, with a mirror on the cap. When applying, use small circular motions. First apply a light layer to your jawline and hairline. Then sweep it on your cheekbones, bridge of the nose, forehead, and chin. Putting a tad on the neck makes the effect a lot more natural. After you make sure everything is blended, apply powder blush on the apples of your cheeks and voila you have a sun kissed look!
