New @BECCA_COSMETICS Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed
A pressed version of its iconic best-selling liquid Shimmering Skin Perfector, the NEWBECCA Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed utilizes new technology that delivers fade-resistant colour impact with an incredibly soft and delicate creamy texture. The unique formula also allows for a super controlled application. Ultra-fine particles reflect light and illuminate darkened areas while Nylon-12 helps create a soft-focus effect. This product is perfect for use on both the face and body and makes contouring and highlighting a cinch!
Pricing: $38 Available at Sephora and Sephora.com
What I thought: Becca products are exquisite! From the packaging to the formula to the brush and product – they seem to do everything right. I have no tried Becca products in the past except for at Sephora but always had this impression that this brand is for a lady who likes a natural look. This shimmering pressed powder gives a highlight to your very natural look. It is not like a traditional bronzer with a lot of ‘tan’ colors and less pearly shimmer than Bobbi Brown’s shimmer brick. This is the perfect in between that is great for a day look. Even if you are just going to the office. Rose Gold is such a beautiful trend for fall – and this is no exception!

Fresh Face with @WhenMask
Yesterday I got an awesome package from KOREA! It contains 5 facial masks that solve skin issues like dehydration, dullness and the sense of blah. When Masks are the perfect solution for busy women who need to give their skin the extra TLC it needs in a hassle free face mask that is both time and budget friendly. They are available at Sephora for $28. Way better than getting a facial at a spa!
There are 2 pieces of film and the mask is in the middle. The one side is a shiny plastic, the other is like mesh paper – The MIDDLE mask is a gel texture. You can see from the pic below on that I put the mesh paper on my face by accident. LOL
When Masks use a bio-cellulose sheet, a soft, gentle material made from coconuts that fits to stay on your face. There are five different formulas available using this material that is highly effective in delivering nutrients to the skin. It only has to stay on your skin for 20 minutes and you will feel a huge difference afterwards!
A great item for travel, everyday and a little bit of at home pampering. If you are stuck for a mother’s day present idea – Try WHEN masks!

Flawless Face with @CoverFX Natural Finish Foundation
“Cover FX Primers instantly smooth and treat the skin to create a healthy, flawless canvas,” says Cover FX International Makeup Artist Derek Selby. “I like to follow with Natural Finish Oil Free Foundation, my favorite foundation to create a fresh, younger-looking complexion.” Cover FX launched a bunch of new products and I was excited to check them out.
With the latest product introductions from Cover FX — the authority on healthy foundation — every skin type can achieve the look of complexion perfection. The foundation is oil free and easy to apply, I used it straight out of the tube with a foundation brush and it gave me a flawless finish.
Can’t wait to try the rest of the products! See more at Sephore or CoverFX.com -
All Shades of LOVE @HourglassMakeup @Sephora
The beauty industry is flooded with ‘me-too’ products with only subtle differences like packaging, price or name. But once in a while, a true innovator comes along and we are totally enamored! Hourglass is one of those brands that I fell in love with and just watched grow into a beauty addict’s favorite with products that win numerous awards and are to die for. I received an email from Carisa’s mom a few years ago about voting for Hourglass on some beauty award. What I love the most about Hourglass is their unique lipstick bullet and their premium weighted packaging. As a bonus, the gunmetal finish makes it really cool.
This morning I received some Hourglass products for review and with the sunshine and delicious lunch I had – it made an ordinary Thursday pretty amazing. The three lipsticks are the Hourglass Velvet Creme Lipstick Femme Rouge.
Hourglass Femme Rouge Ballet, Muse, Edition (l to r) A lustrous, luxurious and richly pigmented cream lipstick with a velvety finish. Loaded with antioxidants, Femme Rouge creates a plush cushiony effect and offers an eco-conscious refillable cartridge.
1. Edition – it is a light wearable natural pink that looks good for everyday. It is casual, sweet and perfect for just hanging out! It is paraben free, sulfate free and phthalate free.
Waterproof and Kiss proof for Valentine’s Day2. Ballet – a blue based creme pink that is just scrumptious! This is definitely an Yvonne type color and I’ll wear it a lot.
3. Muse – an orangey coral that is so hipster and cute! It is a current update on the traditional red lipstick. As if you were the muse of, let’s say, Terry Richardson!
Love love these colors! These go for $30 a pop and are available at Sephora.
Next up! One of my favorite lip products that only HOURGLASS does right. The top long one is Extreme Sheen high shine lipgloss in SIREN and the one below is the Opaque Rouge in Empress.
No other brand has been able to the liquid matte long wear the way Hourglass can. My favorite product hands down for photoshoots, weddings and long days – it really kicks butt. The Hourglass Opaque Rouge is a liquid lipstick with 14 hour long wear and Matte finish.
Empress – Deep Aubergine 
A richly pigmented, exceptionally long-lasting and dramatically matte lip color that seals in moisture. The proprietary blend of advance polymers in this silky smooth liquid lipstick delivers up to 14 hours of continuous wear without flaking or dryness. Skin-conditioning emollients antioxidant fruit extracts, Cili Fruit and Goji Berry and Vitamin A, C, E work to nourish and protect lips throughout the day.
Finally, the EXTREME Sheen. This lipgloss is pure pigment, pure shine, pure luxury. Intensity and micro shimmers that make you look twice. From the bottle to your lips and it looks just like how you expect it! More than a lipgloss – This is like heaven in a tube.
You can layer this or wear it on it’s own. I am wearing Siren the Metallic Red.
