AVON SpectraColor Lipstick: One Tube, Seven Shades!

avon-spectra-color.jpg

Anyone’s who’s looked in my purse knows that I am always carrying at least 5 or 6 lipsticks and gloss at any one time.

I always need a variety of shades so that I can be prepared for any situation, any time of day.  Need to touch up at the office after lunch?  Check.  Want to add a little sass for happy hour drinks to with the team?  Check.  Impromptu dinner date with the Boyfriend?  All set!

In just one tube, AVON’s new SpectraColor Lipstick ($9.50 US) delivers seven shades that can change your look whenever you want and for any occasion you need it for.

SpectraColor Lipstick contains a light and dark color formula that dispenses a certain amount of each shade depending on which level you choose.  The lower the number, the more of the lighter formula comes out; the higher, the darker and more dramatic the shade.

Avon’s Lead Hairstylist Allen Ruiz went with the spirit of the collection and its creators by letting the models walk down the runway as they are and not quell their individual style.  Using Avon’s salon-quality Advanced Techniques hair care line, Ruiz balanced each model’s look with the tone set by the pieces they were wearing.

Every hairstyle seen at the show can be replicated at home.  Ruiz used Advanced Techniques Curl Refresher to play up natural curls and waves.  Ruiz also used Advanced Techniques Mirror Shine that does double duty as a heat protectant and gives hair a shiny finish.  The best thing about the Avon line is that it is effective and affordable; both qualities admired by us beauty recessionistas!

Spotted at the Show:  Courtney Cox, Laura Dern, Michael Stipe, 30 Rock’s Jack McBrayer, Tyson Beckford, Lukas Haas, Real World alumnus Eric Nies

This year, to celebrate the Academy Awards and all the style hits and misses, I’m dedicating a full feature to the top female nominees in the Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress categories in a Celebrity Get the Look series, highlighting each contender’s top beauty looks throughout the recent years.

First up, Kate Winslet.  She’s received a ton of buzz in the beauty world since winning two Golden Globes in January for her performances in The Reader and Revolutionary Road.

Let’s take a trip down memory lane to revisit some of her recent looks and how to get them.

1. 2008 Screen Actor’s Guild Awards: Celebrity makeup artist, Jillian Dempsey kept Kate’s makeup uber natural with focus on her eyes.  Use Lancôme Artliner in Noir ($28 US) to create a precise line on the upper lashline for an ultra-sophisticated look.

2. At the World Premiere of Revolutionary Road:  Steal a perfect berry lip with a hint of luminous shimmer with Avon Glazewear Diamonds Lipstick in Ruby Slippers ($3.99 US).
