DuWop Summer 2010 Collection

For the summer, DuWop has released four new products to help complement your summer activities. When clicking on the "What's New" page of their website, the slogan "Let Your Beauty Soar" is written at the top of the page so I am lead to believe that these are products that are good for a carefree natural look and to complement your best look when on vacation.

Here are the products...

Twilight Venom Blush - Continuing the successful partnership between DuWop, the creators of Lip Venom, and Stephanie Meyer's acclaimed Twilight saga, Twilight Venom Blush brings a softer and sweeter look to the biting lip stain made popular last year. Twilight Venom Blush is a shimmering pink lip stain suspended in a venom-laced liquid lip conditioner argan, avocado oil, and olive oils, as well as Vitamin E. Twilight Venom Blush should be shaken before use (to represent the blending of the human and vampire worlds). Apply to lips until desired intensity of color is reached OR dip the brush in the top without shaking for conditioning and plumping alone OR dip the brush into the bottom of the vial directly into the undiluted stain for a more potent look. Pick your poison.

Angel Washes - Angel Washes are the sheerest tint for lips, cheeks, and eyes in three angelic colors. The refreshing, water-based formula provides a delicate wash of long-lasting color. The three shades are packaged in adorable tubes for easy application. The golden color can also be used as a face highlighter and is the only Angel Wash formulated specifically for the eyes. the set of three includes the listed shades.

- Petal Pink - midtone pink

- Delicate Coral - midtone coral

- Shimmering Bronze Gold - deep gold

Clear Revolution - Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have a self-tanner that actually tones and conditions your skin, was never orange or messy, and had a fantastic scent? if your answer to any of these questions is yes, have we got the product for you! Clear Revolution is a cooling ice blue gel that contains extracts of arnica and calendula to firm and tone and white tea and chamomile to soothe and refresh -all in an aloe base. The bluish hues fights any orange tendencies, giving your skin a completely authentic tan. Scented with a tempting blend of essential oils, including lavender, lemon, lime, and ylang ylang, Clear Revolution also provides natural sunscreen. If that's not enough the product gives you a safe, healthy, glowing tan that develops overnight. As with the original Revolution, Clear Revolution contains a hint of shimmer to bring a subtle sheen to the skin.

Flight Stick - Flight Stick is a skin-enhancing, hydrating stick created for the weary traveler or anyone who wants an instant pick me up. The product contains anti-oxidants to protect and hydrate. A touch of caffeine, a natural stimulant, wakes up the skin and enhances the appearance of dryness and damage. Flight Stick also contains a hint of tint to even out and perfect the complexion. The universal color can be used anywhere - on the face, under eyes, or on the neck - anywhere you need a boost! Packaged in a travel-friendly, roll up cylinder, Flight Stick is perfect to throw in your bag for touch-ups upon landing.

I love the concept of Flight Stick! This sounds as though it could become a go-to product for me during warmer weather or anytime that I stressed out over school and work. I also must keep with my Twilight theme and get the new shade of the Twilight Venom. I am curious about the Clear Revolution and will be keeping my eyes out for reviews to judge if it performs up to its description. I tend to not use gel tanners so I doubt that it would be a product for me, but you never know.

Lancome Summer 2010 Collection - Bronze Riviera

I have been reading for several weeks now that many consider Lancome's Bronze Riviera Collection to be THE collection of the summer. Even though bronzed skin isn't my thing, I am very curious to chekc this collection out and see what products could work very for me. The Lancome website states, "A Playful Glow of Bronze.

Ageless Minerale Blush Brush - Ageless Minerale Blush Brush creates a soft, sexy, sculpted look. The velvetly, pampering touch of this hand-crafted brush shapes cheekbones naturally for controlled, even color application.

Ok, so lots to look at in this collection. I like this collection a lot but I don't think that it is the most amazing one that I have seen so far this summer. However, if I were more into bronzers I might take up a different viewpoint. There are some pieces that I would really like to get from this collection and some that I will be fine with skipping over. I adore the new eye shadow palette and will be able to create some fantastic looks with it. Also, this is one of the few palettes so far from the summer collections without any blue in it so I can safely say that I will use every single shade from this palette. I also love all the new shades of the Juicy Tubes Natural Origins and the new nail polish shade. Definitely some big hits from this collection!

Kate Somerville Goat Milk Face Cream

It's warm and humid and several weeks ago, my thick face creams started to slide off my face. Normally, I turn to Caudalie for new face creams but I decided that for once, I was going to switch up my skincare preferences and try a brand that I have nothing from. I decided on the Kate Somerville brand of facial care products. Kate Somerville is one of the most respected names in the skincare industry and her famous spa in Los Angeles is regularly filled with many of the most beautiful faces in Hollywood. So I decided to give her products a shot and see what the result was.

I decided to purchase the Goat Milk Face Cream (at Sephora) which is formulated for normal to oily skin types. Sephora places the product in this general category, "A nutrient-rich daily moisturizer". Sephora gives the following as the full product description, "Kate Somerville Goat Milk Cream calms and rejuvenates sensitive, dry, and combination skin, absorbing quickly with no oily residue left behind. It offers optimum moisture, balance, and overall well-being for a naturally healthy complexion. For years, Ancient Egyptians used goat milk to heal and nuture their skin; thier skincare wisdom bears following. This natural wonder continues the great tradition, lavishing skin with infusions of milk proteins, vitamins, and amino acids".

So far, I have loved this product when the weather is warm. It hydrates well and doesn't irritate my skin or cause any extra oiliness. Also, I have not broken out when using this product, a major plus. The only time that I wasn't thrilled when using this product was the few days that the temperature dipped down into the 50s, it wasn't hydrating enough and my cheeks felt tight and dry all day long. So this is not a product that I would use in the wintertime. Also, this is not a product that I would recommend to dry skin types, it is lightweight lotion and won't provide enough hydration even when used twice daily.

The packaging of this product is genius and I hope that other skincare companies jump on this concept. It is housed in a tub and when you press down in the top of the container (after removing the cap), the product comes up through a hole in the top. For myself, one pump is enough to cover my whole face and neck without wasting any product. I love the fact that I don't have to stick my fingers into this product to get it out and therefore, will always be putting clean product on my face.

I would recommend this skin cream to normal skin types in warmer weather and oily skin types all year round. Also, any of those with sensitive skin will not break out from this product and should see great results also.

Stila Summer 2010 Collection

The Summer 2010 Collection from Stila resembles a grouping of random products and shades thrown together and labeled as a new collection. I really prefer when new collections have some type of theme to the colors and products. But anyway, I digress. I usually have good luck with Stila products in general so I do want to see what they bringing out for me to try.

Here are the new items...

It Girl Palette - Brought to you first at stilacosmetics.com! The It Girl Eye Shadow Palette is a great selection of the neutral eye shadows that enhance the eyes and will sparkle in the summer sun! At only $10, you can't beat this value. Please note that the pans are slightly smaller than our usual full size pans. The sleek design is ideal for on the go touch-ups. It is perfect for the purse, wallet, or traveling. The three shades that are included are: Kitten (shimmering champagne), Chloe (I think this is mid-tone brown shade), and Lame (I think this is pinky gold shade).

Raspberry Crusk Lip & Cheek Stain - The newest member of Stila's Crush family delivers a perfect pop of vibrant pink to your lips and cheeks. Packed with good for you ingredients and a touch of subtle shimmer, this sheer raspberry-rich formula creates a healthy, glowing flush of youth.

Bronzing Tinted Moisturizer SPF 15 - infused with genuine 24 K gold - contains the perfect ratio of pigment to pearl, providing a beaming, flawless face in an instant. The anti-bacterial and anti-oxidant properties of gold leave the skin with a youthful, vibrant summertime sheen, while SPF 15 ensures that the skin is protected from harmful UVA and UVB rays.

Stila Sun Highlighter - Highlight the skin with Stila Sun Highlighter. This subtle shimmer will work with any of the three shades of Stila Sun to reproduce the look of a truly terrific tan.

Summer Glow Set - Create the perfect summer glow with this three piece set. Illuminating Tinted Moisturizer makes your skin radiate in the sun, while protecting you from its harsh rays. Add a little warmth with the Illuminating Finishing Powder in Bronze. Finally the concealer helps cover up the minor flaws so that your skin looks perfect all summer long. This set is available in Fair, Light, and Tan.

I really like many of the new products in the little "collection". My favorite of the new products is the Smudege Stick Eye Liner. I am dying to try Koi, Stingray, Lionfish, and Moray. I also would like to get both the new eye palettes, I already own Kitten and use it in many eye looks, so I have no problem owning several backups of it. I am also really curious about the One Step Primecolor and I will have to try this one out next time that I go to Sephora. I think that I should have no problem finding some winners here...

Peter Thomas Roth Buffing Beads

My latest scrub obsession is one of the top rated scrubs available on the skincare market today. The last scrub that I was using was slightly too harsh for my liking, however this one is the opposite and therefore makes it one of the best and most widely recommended skincare items. This is not the first time that I have used this product, like Benefit's BadGal Lash, I use this product then purchase something different, miss my favorite and come right back to this one. The product that I am talking about to day is Peter Thomas Roth Buffing Beads, a face and body scrub that has several times won Allure's top honors and is said to be used by Bill Clinton (in addition to a ton of others).

Sephora states that this product is "A gentle exfoliating scrub with ultra-fine jojoba beads and botanical nutrients". They continue with a more detailed description of the scrub right here, "This delicate exfoliant's non-abrasive jojoba beads remove dead surface cells and help open clogged pores, allowing treatment products and moisturizers to pentrate better. The jojoba beads partially dissolve as they come in contact with warm, wet skin, minimizing the risk of irritation. The skin is left smooth, clean, and refreshed". I also pulled some more details about the benefits of this product off the back of the bottle itself. In addition to what was stated from Sephora, the jojoba beads also help to emulsify sebum and clear up and prevent blackheads and whiteheads.

The blue version of this product is the original bestseller. However, this product is so universal and effective that Peter Thomas Roth released an entire line of Buffing Beads all with different properties, benefits, and that are targeted toward certain skin types. Myself, I prefer the original that is pictured here. I love that the beads are fine and gentle. This scrub is unique in that it still performs very well but has never caused my skin even a moment of irritation. A very impressive moment occured when I forgot that I had gotten an eyebrow wax the day before and used this product and still no irritation or redness occured. This is one of my favorite skincare products and I would recommend to any skin type and either gender.

I bought this product at Bath and Body Works before they stopped carrying this brand. Right now, I would recommend purchasing it at Sephora since they are running their skincare challenge. When you purchase a product from one of the specified brands (most of their brands are included), you are given a card with space for four punches on it. When you fill it up by purchasing four skincare products, you get a free full sized gift. Personally, I don't find it difficult to purchase four skincare products and I bet that I will have several cards filled up before this is over.

MAC To The Beach

It is finally the official release of MAC's To The Beach! I have been seeing pictures of this collection in blogs for the past two weeks and the other week when I was at MAC, the manager was nice enough to pull out the testers of the collection. Seeing the testers only made me go even crazier for the collection, the manager and I spent about ten minutes drooling over everything.

I love the To The Beach Eye Kohl in Rosemary & Thyme, I am excited to create a whole new eye look with this product. I also must have the To The Beach Eye Shadow in Sand & Sun, I have been obsessed with it ever since seeing it in person at MAC. I have never tried a cream bronzer so I am excited to see how they work. To finish the whole look off, I want the bag to carry with my green bikini.

To The Beach I go!

Sarah Jessica Parker SJP NYC

With the Sex and the City 2 movie coming out very soon and starting off the summer blockbuster season, I was only appropriate to look at the fragrance that is being releaased with this movie. I don't know about anyone else, but I certainly prefer a new fragrance or makeup collection release with a amajor movie than just about any other type of promotional activity. That being said, I do put this fragrance down to being almost solely a promotional product and one that I doubt that Sarah Jessica would ahve created without the inspiration of this new movie. But, it's Sex and the City and that means for both myself and a million other ladies, that we will buy it and wear it faithfully. I bet the movie theaters are going to reek of it after opening weekend.

This new fragrance is called SJP NYC and this is the first Sarah Jessica Parker fragrance that I have shown any interest in, I have never liked Lovely and have ignored her other releases. Though, clever marketers that are out there, I would not have picked this fragrance up had it not been for the tie in to the Sex and the City 2 movie. In comparison to her previous fragrances, this fragrance is a light fruity, floral that is a great choice for the summer season. The packaging of the product is something else, I have included a picture of it since I don't know that I could fully describe it in words.

This fragrance was made to bring the character of Carrie Bradshaw to life. I do see much of Carrie in this fragrance, it is light, fun, and very unique. At first spray, this fragrance reminded me a lighter version of my beloved Marc Jacobs Daisy. And there is a good reason for that, some of the notes are exactly the same in the two fragrances and they are of similar type. The top notes of the fragrance are: Italian Mandarin, White Osmanthus, Wild Red Strawberries. the heart notes are: Gardenia, Honeysuckle, Mimosa, Red Rose Damascenia. The base notes are: Sandalwood, Vanilla Absolute, Rum Flavor, Creamy Musks.

The fragrance is a good choice for warm weather, it is light enough to not be overpowering. I have read some reviews on this fragrance on the Macy's website and some have been disappointed with the lasting power of it. I know that I will buy this since it is Carrie Bradshaw but had it not been for the movie tie in, I might have walked right by it in the store.
