New NARS Super Orgasm Blush

by Diana Ajih on October 6, 2008

in beauty


New NARS Super Orgasm BlushNARS Orgasm blush has been supercharged. That’s right! NARS has introduced Super Orgasm, a sheer blush with golden speckles. Sounds lovely… Right?

The fabulous peachy pink blush has been touched with golden sparkle giving the ultimate super… after glow. I’ve used the regular Orgasm in the past but this newest color is ultra sexy. Much better than the original and is definitely a must have. It’s a very flattering color and can be worn with or without makeup, and it last on the skin for a very long time. It’s great for any season too!

Now available at Sephora.

New Mineral Makeup Line from The Body ShopThe popularity of mineral makeup is consistently growing and now The Body Shop will introduce its new mineral makeup line in September 2008. I’ve never really tried their makeup. I am a huge fan of their skincare though. This is a perfect opportunity for me to try and test their new makeup line.

Nature’s Mineral Makeup will consist of mineral powder for the face, blush, and eyeshadows. Great Fall colors. I’m excited. I can’t wait to try these out.

Check out your nearest Body Shop store or go online at TheBodyShop.com to grab this new makeup line in September.

M.A.Cs New View Collection Hitting Stores July 08

Hello All! Wanted to give you the latest on MAC Cosmetics.

The New View Collection from MAC will finally hit stores on July 10, 2008 in the US/Canada.

This Collection includes a Mineralize Skin Finish Duo where one side brings a natural matte finish look and the other brings shimmer to the cheeks and browbones. They are available in 5 shades:M.A.Cs New View Collection Hitting Stores July 08

  • Light Medium/Natural and Shimmer
  • Medium Natural and Shimmer
  • Medium Dark/Natural and Shimmer
  • Dark/Natural and Shimmer
  • Deep Dark/Natural and Shimmer

A face brush #189 is also included in this collection and is ideal for contouring the face. It gives precise blending of the product.

Now my discussion on this: I am a big fan of MAC cosmetics but I hate the fact that they come out with so many collections. It makes it hard to choose sometimes because they all look great. I would like to try this New View collection but I’ve seen the upcoming collections from MAC for this coming fall and they look great too and I’m much more excited for them.

For all you MAC lovers out there, What do you think? Are you excited about the New View Collection?
