End the Summer with MAC Baby Bloom.

Baby Bloom is such a fitting name for this light, hydrating, sheerly tinted new collection from MAC. The collection just contains two products, but both pack such a punch that it is certainly nothing to just pass over.

Designed especially for use with makeup, the new Studio Moisture Tint SPF 15 in Baby Bloom drenches skin in healing emollients. The finish is light as the tint gives off a soft glow, while it rescues skin from sun damage all in one. In addition to hiding small imperfections and discolorations, this makeup multi-tasker is packed with a plethora of preventative and reparative extracts as it is designed to boost skin’s health with continued use.

Studio Moisture Tint for the face is paired up with Suntints SPF 20 Liquid Lip Balm. This balm is beautiful with it's touch of sheer color, moisture and protection for the lips; in five soft, feminine shades.

For the Lippie Lovers: MAC Euristocrats2.

As I made a quick trip through Nordstrom last night, I had to stop and do a double-take as I passed by the MAC counter. Ooh - my favorite Dazzleglasses were in a special little display. I had to investigate.

These new beauties, all seven of them were screaming my name, along with seven new lipsticks and four new lip pencils. Alas, this was the newest collection from MAC, just out yesterday. Take a look at Euristocrats2 to see why I am swooning.

Euristocrats2:

While “a kiss on the hand can be quite Continental,” a modern girl does the kissing now, knowing she has the drop-dead drama of these hot new Dazzleglass shades.

Before I give you the rundown, I will say that I picked up two of the Dazzleglass Lip Gloss and one of the new Lipsticks. The first Dazzleglass I picked was Euro Beat, which is a beautiful coral shade with gold pearl. I also selected Roman Holiday, which is a deeper coral, more on the brown side, but with a pink pearl finish to it. The Lipstick I just had to have is Naked Paris. It is a pin/coral shade with an almost color-changing pearl to it. It looks different in each type of light, but each look is gorgeous. It looks really bright in the tube, but is absolutely beautiful on the lips.

Urban Decay is in Search of the Perfect Man.

I don't know if you have seen these adorable Pocket Rocket lip glosses from Urban Decay yet, but if you haven't you need to. They are cute, cute, cute. With just a flick of the lipgloss wand, a man goes from fully clothed to almost fully undressed. Well, Urban Decay has a hit on their hands with this product as it is not only clever, it is a great gloss. They are making two more shades and are looking for the men to be featured on the cap.

So, the brand has developed an online contest to find the next two models for these new shades of which are scheduled to launch in Spring 2010! 

Customers will nominate their boyfriend, husband, friend, (friend-with-benefits, UPS man, favorite barista, coworker, hot neighbor... whoever), via their contest website: www.urbandecayguys.com  . They upload photos, tell us a little about the guy, and are given a link so that they can ask friends to vote. Then, visitors to the site vote for their favorite guy. At the end of the contest, Urban Decay will choose two winners from the top 10 to be the next models on the newest Pocket Rockets.

The winners (and the woman/man who nominated them) will be flown to California where the men will be professionally styled, shot and retouched by an expert team. They get the flight to California, a hotel stay, and some fun prizes: $500 in Urban Decay Cosmetics, $200 in Urban Outfitters gift cards and $200 in Apple gift cards. They will even throw in a few surprise prizes to the runner-ups.

How fun! If you nominate someone, let us know in the comments so I can post the entry here for even more help in voting.
