MAC Rose Romance: See-thru Lipcolor

One of my not-so-secret beauty tricks involves using a lip stain, like these latest launches by MAC. If you're looking to ensure your lips are never "naked", apply MAC See-thru Lipcolor to your bare lips. Top with a favorite gloss or lipstick. Even when the gloss or lipstick fades, the stain will remain! It's a wonderful trick to extend the life of your lipcolor.

Of course, these lovely shades also happen to be gorgeous on their own! The transparent formula is long-lasting and looks very natural. Great for a day at the beach!

Three shades of See-thru Lipcolor are included in the Rose Romance collection… Loving Touch (sheer pearly light pink– pictured at left), Secret Crush (a sheer red berry) and Tender Tryst (a sheer pearly plum, not pictured).

Retail price is a mere $14 per tube!

Chanel Train De Nuit

Coco Chanel's favorite number was five. She tasked renowned perfumer, Ernest Beaux, to create a scent that embodied her modern fashion philosophy.

Wisely, Ernest Beaux presented his fifth submission on the fifth day of the fifth month of the year. How could she possibly reject a scent when so many 5s were involved?

MAC Rose Romance: Super-sheer Lipstick Options!

In the Spring and Summer, many women swear off lipstick. For those of you who just think of lipstick as too formal for frolicking, MAC has a couple of barely-there shades included in the Rose Romance collection!

Pictured at left is "A Rose Romance" (a true pink shade with gold pearl). Pictured on the right is "Way To Love" (a peachy pink). Each of these pale lipsticks provides coverage ever-so-slightly more opaque than gloss, in a creamy moisturizing formula you'll love!

Interesting fact… did you know that recycling your old MAC containers at a MAC counter will earn you free product? For each 6 containers you return (empty lipstick tubes, gloss tubes, etc…) you will receive a MAC lipstick of your choice as a thank you–from MAC and the environment!

Retail price is $14.
