Earlier today we looked at the first of the three new collections from Clinique and I fell in love with many of the new pinks that they brought out this with these collections. The second of the collections is one that I doubt that I will really like, this one is based on ginger tones and will contain shades that have the potential to be too warm for my skin tone. I will look at this collection and check each product out, I am sure that some of my readers will find these shades to be very flattering and will love this area of the spring collections.
The name "Spring Gingers" out a very different picture in my head than what the shades actually look like. I am seeing a deep green eye shadow pencil and a bright pink lip hue, I was envisioning warm bronze and tawny shades that will complement the first hints of a tan. I guess that I was wrong and perhaps that means that I will be able to easily find products from Spring Gingers. "Sunny warmth with a splash of flirty, fresh-faced appeal.", is the collection description from Clinique. Let's see how this collection plays out...
The Spring Gingers collection from Clinique!
Chubby Stick Shadow Tint for Eyes - Sheer wash of lightweight, creamy colour slips on. Layerable and long-wearing.
Versatile, too. Glide one on for a swift wash of colour. Contour with
another to add depth, and yet another to highlight. There's no need to stop at
just one. Appropriate for sensitive eyes and contact lens-wearers.
- 06 Mighty Moss - deep moss green shimmer
Quickliner for Eyes Intense - No need to be subtle when it's now so easy to move into the deepest, most
dramatic range. Find all the intensity of a liquid liner in one simple stroke.
Silky formula glides on. Stays on all day. Never needs sharpening. "Smoke" with
the smudge tip on the opposite end. Ophthalmologist Tested.Two great ways to
wear it.
- Intense Ivy - deep moss green
Chubby Stick Intense Moisturizing Lip Colour Balm - Tempt lips with a soft cushion of colour that's not quite sheer, not quite
opaque-just the perfect happy medium. Loaded with mango and shea butters so lips
feel comfortably soft and smooth. Eight vibrant shades in all.
- Mightiest Maraschino - bright pink red cream
High Impact Mascara - Kicks up the volume and length of each and every lash for a look that's lusher,
plusher, bolder. Pure, deep colour only adds to the impact. Wear it once and
you'll feel naked without it. Ophthalmologist Tested.
- Black - deep black
Blushing Blush Powder Blush - Silky formula sweeps effortlessly over cheekbones to create a natural look.
Fresh, jet-milled colour builds and blends beautifully to desired intensity with
custom sculpting brush. Long-wearing, colour-true. Oil-free.
- Cupid - pale dusty pink with matte finish
I really like this part of the spring looks too but not quite as much as I liked the first spring look. I don't think that I consider any of the these products and shades to be must haves and I would be ok if I didn't get to pick any of them up. I think that my favorite pieces are the eye makeup products, I love the moss colors in the eye shadow and liner. I already own an olive colored eye liner from MAC but I want to find a deeper hue to create a deeper moss green eye. I could skip over every other item in the collection but I really want the eye makeup products. Personally, I would not use them in a spring makeup look and would save them until the fall.
This is the second of the three collections, so far I have liked both so far and now I am excited to look at the last Clinique collection. And my last spring collection of 2013...
