Newness from ModelCo.

Launching in November, ModelCo has formulated two great new products for it's permanent line-up.

Miracle Veil - $38

Suitable for all skin types and dermalogically tested, Miracle Veil Skin Perfecting Fluid is a light-weight skin corrector that minimizes imperfections, disguises redness, lightens pigmentation, evens out skin tone and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles with SPF 14.  

The main active ingredient White Mulberry Root Extract works to brighten the skin with a lightening effect.  Plus, it balances the skin's pigmentation and protects against future discoloration by prohibiting the Tyrosinase activity, which contributes to the production of melanin in the skin. 

Miracle Veil is to be used  after moisturizer, prior to makeup application. Think of it as a makeup primer with some heavy duty benefits.

Luminosity Shimmer Stick - $28

This multi-purpose Luminosity Shimmer Stick adds a hint of shimmer and color to cheeks, eyes, lips and décolletage in a luminous
peachy pink.  It provides a sexy flush of color for a healthy, rosy complexion that compliments any skin tone. The luxurious, creamy formula glides on with a convenient stick applicator and blends effortlessly for sheer color and shimmering highlights. Accentuate, contour and instantly illuminate the skin.

These two new beauties will be available in November at Henri Bendel, Blue Mercury stores nationwide, www.sephora.com and www.modelco.com.au.

Benefit Posietint - For the Perfect Pink Cheek.

I feel like I am the last beauty blogger to have tried Posietint. I have been reading about this new cheek and lip tint from Benefit for a month or two now, and I guess better late than never. And I am so glad I finally got to give this a shot.

I was not a fan of Benetint only because the color was just not natural for me, no matter how hard I tried. It just didn't work. But Posietint. This one is so my shade.

Posietint is so sheer and pretty and looks perfectly natural. Applying takes a bit to get used to, especially when you are so old school like me that I most often use powder. But a few dabs and a quick - really quick - blend leaves my cheeks perfect. And if I want a little more of a pop, I apply a couple coats to build it up. And a dab on the lips and then smooth out - put on your perfect sheer gloss and... beautiful!

MAC Sonic Chic - A Collection of Mineralize Blushes.

Another new Summer collection from MAC, this is Sonic Chic. A beautiful collection of mineralize blushes that are perfect to bring you from Summer to Fall. 

"This collection of Mineralize Blush is reminiscent of an end of summer sunset: warm, soft, shimmering shades of pink, gold and bronze that take you right into fall without skipping a step. The baked powder formula allows for exceptionally sheer and lightweight application. It builds colour without heavy coverage. Super-fine provides soft shimmer on skin. The blush enhances and veils the cheekbones for a luminous complexion. Can be worn on face, eyes and/or body. Use with the 181 Buffer Brush for flawless blending, even colour. Everyday-efficient, travel-size small, it’s built for speed."

I tried out Dainty, which is very similar but a bit more intense to NARS Orgasm. It looks gorgeous over a bit of a faux-tan and bronzer.  I am not sure how it will look on a more pale face, it probably depends on your coloring. I am normally too pale to wear a peach cheek, but with bronzer it is beautiful.

Check these out on July 10th when they are available on counter and online.
