I like double duty products. You know, the ones with more than one function. These make me feel extra good because I feel like I’m getting more bang for my buck.
In the case of Pixi Succulent Lip Twin ($18 US), you really are getting more bang for your buck. This lip gloss contains a cheek tint located in the cap of the tube.
Available in only four shades – Nude Lily (featured), Coral Camelia, Pink Peony, and Poppy Red.
SUPER, the latest skincare line by Dr. Nicholas Perricone (of Perricone MD fame), reminds me of the capsule collections created by fashion powerhouses Viktor & Rolf, Karl Lagerfeld and Sonia Rykiel for H&M.
Just like the H&M collaborations, SUPER by Dr. Nicholas Perricone is the wallet-friendly version of the revered brand from a category pioneer. Dr. Perricone’s expertise, essence and scientific formulations of active ingredients are carried over to the new SUPER fun line.
SUPER is targeted to younger skincare fanatics that want to take a preventative approach to anti-aging. Each of 14 products in the SUPER collection are chocked full of superfoods that are as good for you on the inside as they are on the outside. Superfoods ingredients include acai berry, chili pepper, ginger, olive and a handful of others that have been touted for their phenomenal nutritional benefits.
If one of your New Year’s resolutions is to take better care of your skin, pick up the Skin Nutrition Lunchbox sampler ($65 US).
I’ve never jumped onto the matte nail trend because it reminded me of nails on a chalkboard. I absolutely hate that noise, so I haven’t been interested. But innovative as always, OPI has come up with a way for me to test out the waters with their Suede Collection.
What makes a nail polish have a suede finish? Well apparently it’s a mixture of a matte base with super subtle shimmer. A friend gifted me the OPI Suede Nail Lacquer in Here Today Aragon Tomorrow ($6.25 US) and I’ve been pretty excited wearing it.
I relied on just one face wash to rid my complexion of all the dirt, dust, and sweat I was met with every day while on vacation in Asia – Clickr Figure It Out Pearl Wash.
This cleanser contains tea tree leaf oil, good for sensitive skin, with a touch of astringent and antiseptic mojo that sweeps away sun-damaged skin and impurities. The jojoba oil in the formula also helps to unclog pores, increase moisture retention, balance natural PH, and brighten skin imperfections.
