Almay Smart Shade Collection Spring 2013

Almay Smart Shade Collection Spring 2012 Mousse Makeup

Almay Smart Shade Perfectly Mousse Makeup and Almay Smart Shade Blush are two new offerings at the drugstore for Spring 2013. I ran across these are Harmons recently and couldn’t resist picking up the three blushes and the foundation.

I seem to be in the sad minority who doesn’t like Revlon’s Colorstay Whipped Foundation so I’m a little on the fence about Almay’s version!

Take a look!

Rimmel London Match Perfection Foundation BB Cream Spring 2013

Rimmel London Match Perfection Foundation BB Cream

Rimmel has a new BB Cream that launched earlier this Fall in the UK that’s available in Light and Medium shades.

Rimmel London Match Perfection Foundation BB Cream is a 9 in 1 formula that primes, mattifies, moisturizers, minimizes the appearance of pores, conceals blemishes, and protects with an SPF 25.

It looks like the newer drugstore BB Creams are stepping up their SPF as Revlon’s new BB Cream has an SPF 30 and now this with an SPF 25. Excellent! Hopefully they turn out more pigmented than the more recent releases.

This will prob launch shortly here in the US but it is already available on ASOS.com for around $13.

I’ll be sure to update as it becomes available in our market!

Almay Intense I-Color Bold Nudes for Spring 2013

Almay Intense I Color Bold Nudes

Almay Intense I-Color Bold Nudes is a new collection featuring the new Almay Intense I-Color Liquid Shadow + Color Primer. Intense I-Color Liquid Shadow + Color Primer appear to be a dupe of Covergirl’s Intense Shadowblast Eyeshadow as they are a cream shadow with a built in primer, same as Covergirl’s version.

There are also new Intense I-Color Defining Liners in this collection with are pencil eyeliners with a soft sparkly finish. And finally new Intense I-Color Bold Nudes Palettes in four new shades.

I ran across this display at Harmons a few days ago and picked up some of the Almay Intense I-Color Liquid Shadow + Color Primers. There are four shades total of these.

Physicians Formula Youthful Wear Cosmeceutical Youth Boosting Dark Circle Corrector + Concealer

You might be lucky enough to run across the new Physicians Formula Youthful Wear Cosmeceutical Youth-Boosting Dark Circle Corrector + Concealer launching for Spring 2013 at your local drugstore.

Last year Physicians Formula launched their Spring 2012 offerings fairly early and I remember locating them at CVS and a few other locations within the second week of December.

They are extending their Youthful Wear Collection with a new Dark Circle Corrector + Concealer Duo it appears. I didn’t particularly like the Youthful Wear Cosmeceutical Youth-Boosting Concealer so I’m unsure how I feel about this new variation but I’ll def indulge. I don’t call myself a beauty junkie for nothing ;-D

Physicians Formula Organic Wear Fake Out Mascara Review

Physicians Formula Organic Wear Fake Out Mascara1

As you know from my recent post Physicians Formula released a new Organic Wear Fake Out Mascara for Spring 2013. This promises a false lash-like effect with added volume, length, and curl.

Along with all the bells and whistles you could possibly want from a mascara they also give it a 24 hour wear formula. This is also 100% natural origin and 70% organic with a formula free of harsh chemicals, parabens, etc…

Is it great?
