Clinique Vitamin C Lip Smoothie.

To say that my lips are loving this new Lip Smoothie would be an understatement. This new Clinique Vitamin C Lip Smoothie Antioxidant Lip Colour is such a beautiful lip gloss infused with so much goodness, that my lips are in awe.

These new Lip Smoothies were inspired by the antioxidant enriched smoothies all over the health food bars. They are simply  bursting with a cocktail of antioxidants including Açai Berry, Pomegranate and a highly potent form of Vitamin C which help improve the condition of the lips while helping prevent premature aging.

 

 

It has the texture of a gloss and the colour payoff similar to a lipstick. The shine is spectacular and the styaing power is incredible.

Lip Smoothies come in eight diverse shades that are packed with a rich blend of butters to help keep lips moisturized and soothed. The must-have shades for fall include Absolute Acai, for a more impactful berry lip, and Nude-tritious, for a beautiful natural lip.

Love...awe...Once I tried Nude-tritious, I promptly headed to the Clinique counter to pick up Mango-thon, Fig-a-licious and Raisin the Bar. I will probably need to go back and scoop up another Nude-tritious, as it is my favorite.

Stock up now online or at your favorite Clinique counter. Each Lip Smoothie sells for $17.50.

Kiehl's Rare Earth Pore Minimizing Collection.

If you have ever dealt the problem of large pores, you know how frustrating it is. Finding products to not only minimize and cover-up the appearance of large pores has been a chore, let alone finding products that actually clean out and shrink pore size that, ahem, actually work. If you are looking for something to work on all of the above, you need to check out the new Rare Earth Pore Minimizing Collection from Kiehl's now.

You might actually already be familiar with Kiehl's Rare Earth Facial Cleansing Mask, which has been a much-beloved product since its introduction in the early ‘70s. As Kiehl’s has a long tradition of listening to customers’ needs and seeking out efficacious new ingredients for our products, they are introducing a reformulated masque as well as a complete detoxifying, pore-minimizing skincare regimen that introduces a new fairly traded ingredient into the Kiehl’s family: Amazonian White Clay

 

 

This latest ingredient discovery, Amazonian White Clay has unique properties. Known to remove dirt, toxins, excess oil and dead cells that can clog skin and result in enlarged pores, this clay is sourced from Marajo Island, the largest island surrounded by fresh water in the world. This special clay is gathered at the mouth of the Amazon River at the beginning of the dry season, after months of being nourished by the leaves, fruits, and seeds swept down the river from the rainforest. The natural movement of the Amazon River ultimately forms the mineral rich sediment that is deposited at the Marajo Island. In fact, Marajo Island itself actually developed as a result of the movement of the clay over the last several thousand years.

New from Korres and a 30% Discount!

Korres is a great natural beauty brand that is really gaining strength in this field. I have used a few of their products and am looking forward to get to know a few more.

Two of my favorites from the line so far are the Pomegranate Cleansing Wipes and the Lip Butter.

The Pomegranate Cleansing & Make Up Removing Wipes are made from a very thick, natural cloth. These have to be one of the thickest cloths', if not the thickest, I have ever used in a disposable cleansing cloth. Besides smelling nice, these cloths remove every trace of eye makeup, including stubborn eye makeup. These are my go to cleansing cloths as of late. For $12, you get 25 wipes.

Korres Lip Butter is delightfully buttery and smoothe. It melts onto my lips while offering a sheer tinted shiny finish.  I use Jasmine and Pomegranate most often. Jasmine is a very sheer neutral pink, while Pomegrante is a beautiful sheer coral. Each Lip Butter sells for $9.

I can't wait to try more form the line and I will be bring you more reviews on these beauties as I test more out.
