Raging Rouge Beauty Blog: For Makeup Lovers Everywhere!
Hourglass Cosmetics recently released Aura Sheer Lip Stain, and it makes a wonderful addition to your beauty stash for Spring 2011! As you can see in this image, the long and lean tube is topped with a sponge-tip applicator that also dispenses the product. The sponge-tip applicator is surprisingly adept at reaching odd angles and applying in small spots. [Read more…] about Flush: Hourglass Aura Sheer Lip Stain Review
I was already addicted to Treat Beauty’s Jumbo Lip Balm in Orange Cream. The best news about my addition is that my lips stayed deliciously soft this Winter, despite the cold and wet Seattle climate. An addiction that is actually beneficial shouldn’t be considered an addiction, right?
Well, as of March 2011, Treat Beauty has added a wee bit of tint to the already amazing Jumbo Lip Balm! As if the balm wasn’t already amazing enough, this hint of color now makes my Winter favorite an an ideal choice for Summer!
The Soft Candy scent of this balm is positively mouth-watering, and contains shea butter and coconut oil. The shea butter has a natural sun protection of SPF 18, and the subtle blushing-pink shade is easy to apply with no mirror, even though the balm is so chunky! It’s the perfect beach-tote lip balm.
Retail price is a super-reasonable $8.

Ho boy! Various severe illnesses, a remodel project, a family vacation, an ER visit and a partridge in a pear tree! This beauty blogger is way backlogged right now, and I must sincerely apologize that my reviews of the latest and greatest Spring 2011 makeup launches have not been published in a timely manner.
Not only do I need to apologize to you–my beloved reader–but I also owe a huge apology to MAC Sheen Supreme lipcolor. This is my first time posting about this recent launch, and the truth is it is my #1 favorite new product launch thus far in 2011. In the past 6 months, I’ve reviewed countless “hybrid” lipcolor products, which have basically been sheer glosses in lipstick form. MAC Sheen Supreme is more opaque. The color impact is definitely more like a lipstick. The feel is light and whipped, no heaviness or chalkyness here!
Retail price is $14.50. I demand you check them out!

Here’s some easy-to-follow Spring 2011 makeup advice. Stick to your favorite tried and true neutrals, but add one bright shade to your routine to modernize your look.
Play Time lipstick, from MAC Quite Cute, is a great way to accomplish this! The vibrant mauve/violet shade is somewhat sheer, but the color is build-able. Swipe once over the lips if you’re shy, and more if you’re bold! The shade is bright, cheerful and just the punch of color we all need to escape from Winter doldrums!
Retail price is $14.50 per lipstick.

Do you have an addictive personality? Then you should probably avoid Jack Black Intense Therapy Lip Balm.
Since first sampling the Natural Mint & Shea Butter formula, I’ve been compulsively applying it throughout the day. Not only do my lips feel soothed and moisturized each time I use this balm, but the minty flavor is just so yummy and fresh.
The apothicary-styled tube can be toted by either a man or woman. The formula is fragrance free, colorant free and dermatologist tested. The healing formula is great for Winter use, and the SPF 25 makes it ideal for Spring and Summer!
A little product goes a long way. Despite my near-constant use, the stuff seems to last forever!
Retail price is $7.50 per tube. Grab it at Nordstrom, Sephora, Saks or GetJackBlack.com.
