MยทAยทC Flashtronic.

I have been longing for this collection from M·A·C Cosmetics. Flashtronic is full of Lipglass and Mineralize products. In addition to the three new Mineralize Skinfinish powders, M·A·C is introducing six new limited edition shades of Mineralize Eye Shadow. Look at how beautiful they are!

mac_ft_b.jpgPictured from left to right are the six Mineralize Eye Shadow's ($14): Ether (Deep aqua with silver, black and gold veining); By Jupiter (Light taupe with beige and deep brown veining); Lovestone (Raspberry with wine and copper veining); Quarry (Sky blue with olive, coral, and beige veining); Tectonic (Yellow gold with lime green, warm brown and black veining); Yellow gold with lilac and chestnut veining).

The shades are "A sheer, pearled, mineralized powder eye shadow with up to four shades baked together in one pan". They feel incredibly lightweight and smooth on soft and shimmery.

The rest of Flashtronic includes the Lipglass's ($14) - Perfectly Pink, Flashtronic, Young Spark, and Electro-Lush. And the Mineralize Skinfinish Powder's ($24.50) - Northern Light, Gold Spill, and Global Glow.

I can't wait to try out the limitless combinations of these products, and will definitely have fun with our M·A·C make over night tonight. I will post pictures over the weekend.

If you caved on any of the newest M·A·C Collections, let us know what you decided on, and how you like it.

Flashtronic is available on counters and online now.

 

A Beautiful Summer Glow!

Though it is not officially the middle of Summer, whenever July 15th rolls around, I feel like it is the middle of the Summer. And it depresses me.

I am so into my self-tanning routine, and I am pretty bronzed and looking good, if I do say so myself. But my cheeks needed a little pick me up for a beautiful Summer glow. Enter two of Lancome's cheek products that have my cheeks really looking pretty cheeky - and glowing beautifully!

Star Bronzer Poudre Sôleil Sun-Kissed Bronzing Powder ($34.50). This powder bronzer is available in five shades. For my cheek look, I am using Bronze Terre.

On top of a sweep of Bronze Terre over my cheeks and nose, I apply Blush Subtil Shimmer Delicate Oil-Free Powder Blush ($28.50) in Coral Heat to the apples of my cheeks.

Coral Heat leaves a soft shimmer to my cheeks and adds the perfect glow. The blush is also available in Shimmer Mocha Havana, if you opt for a deeper cheek shade.

Lovin' LORAC!

LORAC Caribbean Crush ($30) palette is everything you need to look bronzed and beachy.

With three beautiful eyeshadows Island, Beachwood, and Dune paired with a beautiful blush in Coral Reef, a bronzer in Bikini Bronze, and a highlighter in White Sand a perfect look is just moments away. The White Sand highlighter is one of the best I have used, and love to sweep it on my brow bone and even dab a bit in the center of my lower lip over gloss. Gorgeous!

If you want to take the look to the next level, then you need to add LORAC Glam Rocks ($16).

Use Metallic Copper, a beautiful loose powdered coppery bronze shadow as an eyeliner, or dabbed into the inner coners of your eyes
