Recently I stopped by the two aforementioned stores, and picked up a few new pieces that caught my eye.
I feel like Hourglass is a newly popular brand that is burning holes in, well, my pockets. I was a big fan of their Ambient Lighting Pallette that was released a few months ago, so you could imagine how ecstatic I was to hear that they'd be coming out with a blush version.
At $58 USD, you get three beautiful blushes that give you not only a flush to the cheeks, but a glow that will have people wondering.
Continuing with the Hourglass obsession, I had recently received a sample of their Opaque Rouge Liquid Lipstick in the color Icon. The name fit the bill; Icon was just that, an iconic red color. I was amazed by the pigmentation and the claim of a 14-hour wear, so I decided to splurge on a more (I hoped) every day fall lip color.
The color Empress is a gorgeous, deep berry red color. At $28 USD, Sephora describes Empress as a deep aubergine, which I think, is a perfect explanation. It's a bit too dark for me to wear everyday, but I look forward to this color accompanying me on many nights out this fall.
During the warmer, summer months, I tend to lay off of foundations and stick to tinted moisturizers. As we make our way back into the cooler, winter months, I start to introduce my skin back to foundations. My skin is a very fickle thing, and it hates to be disturbed, if you get what I'm saying! I love foundations, but I am always nervous to try something new. When I stumbled upon MAC's Face and Body foundation, I figured a water based foundation might not disturb my skin too much.
Have you hauled anything lately?
