Currently loving: CARGO Blu_Ray Blush/Highlighter
Being an avid blush-lover, I tend to collect them and then use them a lot the first few days only to go try something new soon after. But I have to say, Cargo’s Blue Ray Blush is a different kind of thing.
First of all, its one and only shade is universally flattering for all types of skin, and this alone is a great achievement for a blush.
Secondly, the photochromatic pigments it’s infused with, adjust to the lighting around you (indoor, outdoor, cold or warm light) and are able to provide you with an always natural-looking finish.
The particles are irregularly sized, therefore they diffuse light in a natural, optically-blurrying way. The result is a softer look that flatters all complexions.
Finally, the formula is oil-free, and is suitable for all types of skin.
I don’t think there’s anything more a girl could ask from her blush. This one’s a keeper.

Oops, they did it again. I mean the gals at Benefit.
After the beauty cult benetint
, a new lip & cheek stain is born. The lovely Posietint (aka “The cheekiest flush you can get from a bottle”) has a petal-pink shade that’s universally flattering, and is also perfect for the fair skinned among us.
Just like with all the other Benefit products (yes, we are fans) it is an amazing little treasure that will follow you everywhere you go:
it’s an all-over formula that can be used to revive cheeks, lips, even brow-bones to light up a tired complexion, for hours of smudge-proof, just-picked perfection. The little brush paints on your face an innocent, yet provocative glow for a healthy, bonne mine effect.
How to use it:
brush three strokes on the apple of your cheek and blend quickly with fingertips. Do the same on your other cheek.
Dot on lips & blend with fingertip. For a deeper “pop” of color, repeat.

After Fafi and Heatherette, the latest MAC collection brings you from Spring straight into Summer time.
The inspiration is the Côte d’Azur in the French Riviera, circa 1960. Think of Brigitte Bardot, retro striped and polka-dot bikinis, and Mick Jagger marrying Nicaraguan model Bianca Perez de Macias in Saint-Tropez, et voilà, you get the idea of how chic this collection is.
The shades go from deep-sea blues to coral reds. The emphasis is either on the eyes (with deep plum or blues) or on the lips (with shiny, textured lipsticks and lustreglass). The nails follow the same rule, either in dark royal blue or coral red.
The collection includes:
Lipstick in Buoy-O-Buoy, Party Mate, Ahoy, There! and Port Red
Lustreglass in Love Knot, Bateaux, Ensign, Hey, Sailor
Eye shadow in Shore Leave, Illegal Cargo, Submarine, Meet The Fleet, Pandamonium
Pigment in Lark About, Mutiny, Bell-Bottom Blue, Lovely Lily
Technakohl Liner in Smoothblue and Greyprint
Pro Lash Mascara in Coal Black
Nail Lacquer in Naughty Nautical and Shirelle
