MAC Reviews: Magic, Mirth & Mischief Lipstick in Total Wow

MAC Reviews: Magic, Mirth & Mischief Lipstick in Total Wow Rich, berry-reds are an easy way to quickly “dress up” for any occasion. They’re also softer and more subtle than a bright shade of red.

From MAC’s Magic, Mirth & Mischief comes this fine contender in the “berry-red” category. Total Wow! has a glaze finish. It applies sheer, so you can wear just a hint of color or layer for a darker look.

Retail price is $14.

MAC News: Baroque Boudoir

MAC News: Baroque Boudoir It's not physically possible for me to covet a holiday collection more than Baroque Boudoir by MAC. The packaging is reminiscent of another era, when the style and quality of your compact was equally important as the product within.

This super-premium limited edition collection is slightly pricier than most MAC products, but will likely sell out fast due to the special stand-out packaging. It's scheduled to hit counters TODAY, so head to your local MAC makeup counter if you want to stake your claim!

The collection contains:

Baroque Boudoir Lipstick $22
Baroque Boudoir Creamy dark plum
Prive Creamy light blue pink
Treasured Creamy warm nude beige

Baroque Boudoir Lipgloss $22
The Lap of Luxury Sheer baby pink with white and pink pearlized pigments
Preciousness Sheer metallic pink with white pearlized pigments
d’Nouveau Sheer dusty rose with light pink pearlized pigments

Baroque Boudoir Compact/Sheer Mystery Powder $60
Light Medium
Medium Plus

Boudoir Clutch $65
Chic black clutch in a brushed crinkled nylon fabric

Beau Bain Review: All New Petite Bath Bombs!

beau bain, bath bombs, petite bath bombs, holiday 2009, product review, makeup review, bath & body

Great news for those of you in search of a great gift idea! Beau Bain recently announced that their beloved bath bombs are now available in petite versions!

I’ve written about the virtues of Beau Bain in the past, and it’s safe to say my entire family is crazy about this brand. My personal favorite “flavor” bath bomb is Coconut Lemongrass. The scent has a zippy citrus element that puts a little pep in my step, while simultaneously giving me a 5 minute tropical vacation with the essence of exotic coconut.

My obstacle to a relaxing bath is my oldest son. He is obsessed with these bath bombs. If I dare take one out for my personal use, he hoards it for play. While an apothecary-styled jar filled with mini bath bombs makes a wonderful gift for others, it also makes it much easier for me to “share” with my little guy. One mini for the tub, one mini for his play. I manage to get my 5 minutes of R&R while he is gleefully entertained. Bath-time bliss!

A large jar of 12 petite bath bombs retails for $30. A small jar of 6 petite bath bombs retails for $15. Two great holiday price-points!

FitFlop: Cold Weather Lineup, To Workout While You Walk!

As the weather cools down for a large portion of the United States, the last thing on anyone's mind is investing in a FitFlop. Though personally, I still enjoy wearing the "Electra" style, and love the glittery sequined look peeking out from under a jean.

But for those of you looking to continue toning your muscles while keeping your toes warm, you'll be thrilled to read that the makers of the infamous FitFlop have introduced FIVE warmer styles of their fitness shoes! From boots to booties to clogs, these shoes contain the same wobbleboard technology that strengthens core muscles.

The new collection contains these styles:

The Snugger– A super light pull-on boot that is part hip hop and all FitFlop. The Nylon/Patent puffy-padded upper and faux fur lining inside guarantees your toes will stay toasty throughout even the coldest winter weather! The boots are Agion treated (anti-bacterial odor control), water and stain resistant and rest on a rugged anti-slip outsole. ($125.00)

The Inuk(pictured) – Fitness meet fashion (meet fabulous!). The tall calf boot with double-faced breathable shearling is the healthiest boot to hit the streets this season. The boot features an ergonomically shaped heel counter, drawstring toggle-top, is Agion treated (anti-bacterial odor control), water and stain resistant and rest on an anti-slip outsole. ($200.00)

The Mukluk– It’s fashionable, functional and cute (to boot). This double faced shearling bootie will make your feet feel like they are walking on a cloud. The boots are Agion treated (anti-bacterial odor control), water and stain resistant and rest on a textured anti-slip outsole. ($140.00)

The Gogh II– The coolest (and comfiest!) clog around. Created with a featherweight, ultra-felt textile upper and faux fur lining, giving your feet the royal treatment! Water and stain resistant with a skid-resistant all rubber outsole, these are sure to help you get up and go… ($69.99)

The Ultra Lounge– The ultimate in relaxation, these shearling-lined house slippers have an ergonomically designed low-cut upper on the Micorwobbleboard midsole. They have been treated with odor elimination Agion technology for always fresh feet and are water and stain resistant with an all rubber non-skid outsole. ($79.99)

Retailers include Amazon.com, Bath and Body Works and macys.com. Check them out when you have a chance! My eye is personally on the low boot, Mukluk. It looks so totally cozy!
