Bourjois Ombre A Paupieres Wet/Dry Eyeshadow

Cosmetics with names and scents to tempt your sweet-tooth are everywhere. Hit any beauty boutique, and you’ll see wide-eyed drooling women behaving–quite literally–like kids in a candy shop. Is it any surprise that Bourjois chose to package their eyeshadow in candy-colored opaque cases as a sure way to catch the eye?

These versatile domed shadows by Bourjois are a wet/dry formula. I sampled the recently released Ambre Nude #16, and Rose Peau #15 shades. Used dry, both colors of this silky high-pigment shadow are beautiful for everyday wear. They are very neutral shades with just a hint of feminine color. But used wet, these colors becomes rich and dramatic. Rose Peau in particular, was a delight. Applied dry, it’s a soft pink shadow with just a hint of shimmer. Applied wet, it was transformed to an extremely sophisticated high-shimmer silvery pink shade. Glancing at my sparkling lids in the mirror, I wished I had a party to attend!

Bonus! Each shadow case matches its contents, making it infinitely easier to find the exact color you are searching for in a crowded makeup case!

These glorious single-color shadows retail for $14 at Sephora, and so many color options are available, it must be seen to be believed! For more information on this product, head over to the Bourjois website.

Kinerase Clear Skin Moisture Light

Is there anything worse than combination skin? Dry cheeks look old and dull. An oily t-zone looks shiny and breaks out. Worst of all, it is impossible to find one product to suit the needs of both skin types.

Or is it? Kinerase has just introduced Clear Skin Moisture Light, a moisturizer that nourishes and softens skin while simultaneously mattifying the complextion and preventing breakouts. I started using this product at the tail-end of a month-long hideous breakout. This product cleared my skin pronto, and improved radiance as well. I haven’t had a major breakout since!

Go check out the Kinerase website for more information, and check out the promotional video of Kinerase spokeswoman Courtney Cox Arquette. Does the woman ever AGE?

A 1.7 oz pump-bottle of Kinerase Clear Skin Moisture Light retails for $75 at Sephora and here at the Kinerase website. If you purchase from Kinerase directly, you will receive a free full-sized Daily Cleanser with your purchase (a $30 value). Enter code MBCDRIVE during checkout.

Bourjois Fresh Kiss Minty Lip Gloss

Looking for intense, high-gloss shine? You’ve come to the right place, baby! This gloss by Bourjois will make your lips look as if they’ve been varnished. The shine is so intense, it appears as if you’ve applied a coat of your favorite clear nail enamel on your lips! The fresh menthol scent makes this gloss as delicious as it is glamorous.

Bourjois Fresh Kiss Minty Lip Gloss retails for $15.50 at Sephora.
