The Rarest of Minerals.

Yes, we have all heard of Bare Escentuals and their bareMinerals line by now, right? And we all know about how the minerals in makeup are only a good thing - and quite beneficial.

be_rare.jpgWell, I have been experiencing the ultimate in minerals with a rare combination of minerals from Bare Escentuals and their RareMinerals Skin Revival Treatment .

This is quite different than what you might expect. It is almost like a makeup, as in the way you apply it and for the fact that it does come in shades,that you use right before bed. I buff on these miracle minerals (I am using the clear formula) right as I get into bed. They buff on simply with the sponge that comes attached to the jar, which is great. It is even easy to detach and wash too.

Onto my results. When I first applied it, I did it in front of the mirror. Immediately, I would notice a more air brushed, matte finish to my skin. This in itself is a reason for loving it because my skin didn't look so scary as a freshly cleansed, makeup free face sort of does.

My New Years HIGH RÉSOLUTION from Lancôme.

Lancôme is helping me make a New Years Resolution with their just out High Resolution Eye with Collaser-48™.

lancom_hr.jpgThis serum's special complex of ingredients such as Vitamin P, HEPES, and Caffeine, has shown to accelerate the production of collagen in just 48 hours! Now that is fast - what I like from a product. Don't we all want almost immediate results?

I hope to put High Resolution Eye with Collaser-48™ to the test in our upcoming anti-aging experiment.

Here is what Lancôme has found through their testing so far:
"Immediately: Eyes feel smoother while puffiness is visibly reduced
3 Weeks: Wrinkles are visibly diminished and the appearance of dark circles is significantly reduced
4 Weeks: Feel firmness returns -100%; Eyes appear brighter – 84%"

High Resolution Eye is available now on their website or at Lancôme counters for $56.00. If you do try it, please let us know your results.

 

Gift Cards Galore!

vsgiftcards.jpgLet's here it for the Gift Cards! I hope Santa brought you some to your favorite stores.

I love, love, love Gift Cards.  I dropped hints to everyone that I need new "pretty things" from Victoria's Secret, which I do - really. But I forgot to tell them about the huge line of Beauty products they carry now. Oops!

So besides some pretty new undergarments, look at what else I picked up online from their ever expanding beauty department:

Very Sexy Makeup Mosaic Blush - looking for a new everyday blush and this looks do-able in Love Life.

Girl2go Naked Eyes Eye Makeup Remover Wipes - these look so convenient, I am just hoping they do the job and leave no after oils or film.

Tarte's Lights, Camera, Lashes! Mascara - because I am running low on this favorite of mine.

Pout Illuminator- selected this in love glow, which is an iridescent pearl to highlight and refresh (hopefully look that way, anyway). 

Patricia Wexler, M.D. Universal Anti-Aging Cleanser - been wanting to try something from this line and who doesn't need an anti-aging something?

DuWop Eye Palette - in Gray as I have been eyeing this for awhile now - can't have enough eye makeup!

That's it. How do you think I did? I can't wait to get everything - and shipping was FREE too. Right now a $100 purchase and the code SEMI is all you need to qualify for it.
