Lancôme’s Ageless Minérale Blush in Brilliant Berry: My Review

Hello Divas!


I hope you are having a truly fabulous Monday!  Mine has started off right!

I have been trying out a new blush and I am in love with it!  Now everyone knows that I am a NARS blush junkie and I collect them like candy.  However, Lancôme has a new mineral sheer blush that I have been using for one month and it is fabulous!

Lancôme’s Ageless Minérale Blush contains pure mineral pigments and is fragrance free, oil-free, and talc-free.  It is safe for sensitive skin and as a person that has extremely sensitive skin, I did not experience any irritation from using this product.  Any beauty product that does not break me out is always a winner in my book.  But more importantly, it just looks amazing on my brown skin.  The color is sheer but the color pops and gives the most radiant touch to your cheeks.  Take a look!


The color I am wearing is Brilliant Berry and as you can see my cheeks have that rosy look that we all crave.  I wear this blush and it just brightens my face.  And it lasts all day, even in this 102 degree heat we are experiencing in Georgia.  When I come home in the evening, my cheeks are still glowing.  As a matter of fact, Lancôme claims it wears for 6 hours. 

Lancôme’s Ageless Minérale blush comes in several colors that compliment a wide range of skin tones.  It retails for $29 and you can purchase it online here. 

Toodles!

Napoleon Perdis NP Set Makeup Palettes

Hello Divas!



I hope you are having a great day!



As I previously blogged, Napoleon Perdis has introduced a new NP Set line at Target and the colors are just fantastic and the make-up is functional! I am such a fan of functional make-up because as a woman on the go, I need functionality.



Napoleon Perdis sent me a sample of their new NP Set make-up palettes and I just had to share them with you guys because they are gorgeous and so easy to use. First of all check out the packaging.



The palettes come in the cutest little compact cases. They are compact enough to fit inside any purse. Plus the designs are adorable.



These sets contain 5, yes 5 eye shadows, 3 lip glosses, and a blush. You also get two NP Set brushes for application. The colors in the make-up palettes are based on a specific style. For instance, if you are a rocker-chic Diva, the Denim Set is for you. This sets contains a beautiful violet, apricot, and lilac eyeshadow. Plus there are 3 hip lip glosses ranging from bronze to a shimmery pink.


The Sweater Set is for the a nice warm pink glow during the winter months! I call her the Winter Diva...she is dressed in her fly warm clothes but still glowing. This set contains a very pink blush, bronze, purple and gold eye shadow, with true pink and apricot lip glosses.



Lastly, the Career Set, is for the Career Diva. The woman on the go handling business! The colors in this palette best match my skin tone. This set contains a deep purple, light bronze, and gold eye shadow. There is also a bronze, pink, and coral lip glosses with a bronzy rose blush. Actually the blush reminds me of my fav NARS blush, Lovejoy.



The palettes come with step by step instructions on how to apply the make-up for a day or night look. So even if you are a novice, you can't go wrong with these palettes! They are only $29.00 bucks at Target! Considering the amount of product in the palette, this is a true steal!



Toodles!

Hot Drugstore Find of the Week: Revlon's A Floral Affair Sheer Powder Blush

Hello Divas!

How is your Wednesday? I am so glad this is a short work week I don't know what to do! My hot drugstore find of the week is Revlon's A Floral Affair Sheer Powder Blush. Now I must admit, I have never used a drugstore brand blush. When I started wearing make up I never used blush, just lipstick, eye pencil, and mascara. When I was introduced to the fabness of blush, of course NARS stole my heart and I have been a NARS junkie ever since. But one of my faithful readers, Rhonda, asked me to recommend a good drugstore blush. So of course I had to deliver. I chose Revlon's A Floral Affair because one, the floral design is just so pretty! Two, the colors in the Honey Bunch palette are peach, orange, and bronze. I knew these colors would look great on me because orange blush rocks on brown skin! The Floral Affair Blush has three colors that you can apply individually or you can swirl all three together and apply to your cheeks. I swirl the colors together and I truly get a nice flushed glow! Also, the blush is very light and smooth. I have been wearing this blush for a week and I really like it. My only complaint is that the color does not last all day long. I definitely have to reapply the blush towards the end of the day. But I am spoiled because I never have to reapply with my beloved NARS. When using Revlon's A Floral Affair, I would definitely recommend wearing primer so that the color will last. But besides that, I would recommend purchasing this blush. It retails for $11.99 and it comes in several color palettes. Regardless of your skin tone, you can definitely find a color to compliment you.

Toodles!
