Turn Up the Heat with LORAC's Hollywood Heat Set.

May 27, 2008/

I was lucky enough to have a sneak peek at my brand spanking new local Sephora. I am so thrilled that the beauty authority will be just about 10 minutes from me, which is much better than the one I had to travel to that is almost a 1/2 hour away. As I got my peek, one of the gals setting up the store was putting out this set from LORAC that I just need.

Unfortunately, I was not able to purchase this or anything else as the store is not yet officially open. But let me say that this Hollywood Heat Set is at the top of my list.

The beautiful bronzed bag contains the following LORAC poroducts:
Bronze Bombshell Eye Shadow Trio
Hot & Spicy Blush/Bronzer Duo
TANtalizer Body Bronzing Luminizer
Mocktail Flavored Lip Gloss in Tropical Dream

As I am already in love with TANtalizer, so I know this travel sized tube will come in handy. I use this super sweet smelling bronzy lotion on my legs whenever I am dressed up a bit in the Summer. The lotion leaves my legs a little more bronzed and glowy, with a beautiful sheen. The shadows look divine for they are perfect for a bronzed Summer look without looking overdone or too made up. I cannot wait to try the blush and bronzer duo either. - they look to be my perfect shades. And, any lip gloss addict has to want that Mocktail Lip Gloss - and that includes me. Doesn't Tropical Dreamy look and sound, well, dreamy?

This set is exclusive to Sephora, so that is where you need to pick up the set. It sells for $35, which is a great price for these beauties.

A Look Ahead to Summer - Lancôme Cabana Bronze.

March 14, 2008/

If this doesn't make you wish for long, hot Summer days, I don't know what will. The Lancôme Summer Collection, which doesn't hit counters until next month, is simply beautiful. Let me introduce you to Cabana Bronze.

The star products include the Star Bronzer Sun Cherub Compact and the Color Design Cabana Bronze Eye Shadow Palette.

The Sun Cherub Compact ($50) is a cherub embedded large bronzer. Loved by celebrities and makeup artists, this très grand palette showcases the original Lancôme cherub embossed in a sea of light and dark bronze shades.

Select from one of the two new shadow palettes. Color Design Cabana Bronze Eye Shadow Palette ($43) in Cabana Sunrise, with its pinks, lilacs and browns, will awaken your senses, while Cabana Sunset with its sultry golds and deep browns will set the mood for the evening ahead.

I am rocking the Cabana Sunset eye look today with the newest Color Fever Gloss from the collection, in a beautiful sheer and sparkling bronze. Now, I just need the bronze tan to match (coming soon!).

I cannot wait until the entire collection is launched in April.

Cameron Diaz: An Introduction to Self Tanner and Bronzers.

February 25, 2008/

I think that Cameron Diaz is absolutely darling. And she looked beautiful at the Academy Awards last night - with one exception. Her tan lines! Someone needs to tell Cameron about the wonders of self-tanners and bronzers.

With so many bronzers, temporary tanners and long-lasting self-tanners, there was just no excuse for this fashion faux paus.
