Part of their Spring 2011 makeup collection, Urban Decay’s Afterglow cheek formula has a gel-like consistency. The finish is sheer, yet still imparts the most fabulous vivid Spring color! The formula contains skin-beloved ingredients like Vitamin E, Vitamin C and Vitamin A, so you’ll be giving your cheeks some much needed TLC while you wear it! The team at Urban Decay recommends playing with this gem. Swirl two shades together, or even dab a bit on your lips!
Housed in an adorable purple compact, these cheek tints are applied with the fingertips. Simply blend into the apples of the cheeks and you’re set!
Retail price is $24 per compact. This blogger gives Urban Decay Glide-On Cheek Tint two thumbs up! My biggest dilemma since sampling this product is I simply can’t decide which shades to use each morning!

When I first spied MAC’s CUTiE Quad eyeshadow palette–from the MAC Quite Cute collection–I didn’t think this collection of four Easter-egg hued eyeshadows would be the kind of makeup I would chose to wear everyday. I was so wrong! In fact, this swirl of candy-colored shades can be either bold or subtle, depending on where you apply each color on your lids.
Applied without a primer, the shades in MAC’s “Cutie Quad” eyeshadow x 4 are generally on the sheer side. With a Want to know a great way to wear them? First, apply Moshi Moshi! to the lid. The frosty white shade is positively eye-opening! Then, apply Goody Goody Gum Drop up to the brow bone. The pastel pink is utterly hip for 2011, so show it off! Applied in the crease, the electric Boycrazy should be applied in the crease next. This lavendar shade has a certain electricity to it. Finally apply Azuki Bean ( a violet with earthy undertones) as an accent shade to line the eyes. The look is semi-neutral and semi-colorful. The violet hues are a brown eyed girls best friend!
Retail price is $36 per quad.
