The new packaging!
I had to pick this up! Blood red, oxblood, deep berry, merlot whatever you want to call it is very on trend right now. It’s very lush and opulent! I love it!!
I found myself with lots of time as I was house-bound because of a hurricane called Sandy. I am not really a Halloween person but decided to paint up the nails in honour of the day!
So one brand that has a kind of a sleeper status is Laura Mercier. Professionals have been for years singing the praises of their foundations, including the best-selling Tinted Moisturizer. Most tinted moisturizers aim to give sheer to light coverage, basically just to brighten the complexion and some evening of the skintone.
Laura Mercier just recently released their liquid tinted moisturizer in a convenient compact!
From PR:
Laura’s latest innovation features a lightweight crème formula that gives skin a dewy, natural-looking finish ideal for all skin types. With SPF 20 and a hint of color, this portable compact is perfect for travel and touch ups on the go. It’s a breakthrough for the Flawless Face!
The Tinted Moisturizer Crème Compact also boasts:
A lightweight formula that moisturizes and hydrates the skin
Provides sheer to moderate, buildable coverage with a hint of color for a natural look
Long wearing formula (6-8 hours) ideal for active lifestyles
Broad spectrum SPF 20 provides UVA and UVB protection
Visibly evens skintone and softens fine and dry lines
Upon application, skin is brighter, more even-toned, and dark spots and imperfections look visibly diminished.
Features Vitamin C, which has skin brightening properties
Contains the antioxidants Vitamins C and E to help protect skin from environmental elements
More polishes inspired by and taken off the runways of NYFW. I love the boldness and richness of a crème polish and Zoya has brought out 6 of them! I think that once you have a great formula and intense pigments, a crème can stand on its own!
