Holy Grail-Worthy: Crystal’s Favorite Face Products

November 6th, 2009 by Crystal

Holy Grail Face Products

If I had to choose, I would splurge on face products over eye or lip products. Why? I like thinking that I’m getting my money’s worth in powders and concealers because they have to be the perfect bases for the rest of my makeup.

Plus, good skin ingredients and color ranges come with pricier bases.

I’ve wasted so much time trying many face products to find the perfect ones for me. But when I did, it was worth it. My eyeshadows look better on my flawless face, and my lips are even more pouty when my complexion looks blemish-free.

These are the products that I’d marry and declare a relationship with for life. Read on to discover what some of my HG finds for the face.

Introducing the new Sephora VIB Program!

August 14th, 2009 by Crystal

Sephora VIB Beauty Insider

I have a Sephora Beauty Insider Card, the LBC (Little Black Card) that will give you great rewards like deluxe samples with every $100 purchase, a chance to buy exclusive products, and free birthday gifts.

But what if this program was amped up even more and had exclusive, elite benefits for a select few? Like a 10% off coupon for joining, invites to private events and parties, an accumulative holiday gift card, promotions and freebies, and access to a VIB hotline where you get your questions answered?

What if I said this was a reality and that VIB stands for Very Important Beauty Insider? I would think that I’ve died and gone to heaven.
