Your Je Ne Said Quoi Lip set

The holidays season happens to be one of the best times of the year to get great deals on some of your favorite leading brands of cosmetics.  IT Cosmetics sent along three of their 2015 gift sets that I want to share with you to help get your glam on or for gift-giving.

The first one that I want to tell you about is their Your Je Ne Sais Quoi Two-Piece Lip set ($28).  This has a value of $44 and features two full size products with their award-winning Vitality Lip Flush 4-in-1 Reviver Lipstick Stain and Vitality Lip Blush Hydrating Gloss Stain in Je Ne Sais Quoi in a girly pink, zippered leatherette pouch.  This lipstick shade gives your lips a delicate wash of a natural becoming pink.  If you want to pump up the shine, layering some of the matching Vitality Lip Blush Hydrating Gloss Stain and voila, you have a beautiful moisturizing finish to keep that color going for all those hours of partying! 

XOXO, IT Girl! Three-Piece Eye-Enhancing set

Next, there is the XOXO, IT Girl! Three-Piece Eye-Enhancing ($28) set to consider.  We all know how often you need to replace eye products like mascaras so this really is a sweet grouping (valued at $46) that comes inside a black leatherette, zippered pouch.  Inside, you will find:
-Full-size No-Tug Waterproof Gel Eyeliner in Black
-Travel-Size Brow Power Universal Eyebrow Pencil in Universal Taupe
-Travel-size Hello Lashes 5-in-1 Volumizing Mascara in Black
-Three sample packettes: No. 50 Serum Primer, CC+ Cream with SPF 50+ and Bye Bye Under Eye Concealer

Your IT Girl Lips Perfect Red Lip Duo

Finally, there is the Your IT Girl Lips Perfect Red Lip Duo set ($24).  You get a full-sized Blurred Lines Smooth-Fill Lipstick in IT Girl and a travel-size YLBB Your Lips But Better Waterproof Lip Liner Stain in Cherry Flush. This is a notice-me shade of festive, shiny red that is perfect for the season along with one of the best lip liners around in my opinion.

Do visit IT Cosmetics website or QVC.com to find these limited edition sets while they last because they will go fast!  

Review + Swatches: IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Concealer (Neutral Medium) and NEW Heavenly Luxe Magic Eraser #15 Brush

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

IT Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Concealer

If your goal is mesmerizing eyes, then you need to make sure that you banish all under eye darkness first. My allergies can make this often difficult when I try to conceal forcing me to buy one product after the next. With Bye Bye Under Eye Concealer and their new Heavenly Luxe Magic Eraser #15 Brush from IT Cosmetics, the problem is finally solved.

Being Summer, my fair complexion has a bit more color from the sun than my pale winter skin.  Therefore, the Neutral/Medium shade of this concealer was the best match for my under eyes.

Here is where I swatched the Neutral-Medium Bye Bye Underneath. The darker swatch by my wrist is a thick application before besides it where I rubbed it in.

Bye Bye Under Eye ($24) with its amazing anti-aging formula that has hydrolyzed collagen, vitamins C and K among its skin-loving ingredients covers like a dream.  This smooth, creamy formula doesn’t crease even after you wear it all day or does it fade so that darkness might show.  This is a trustworthy concealer that also brightens the circles in the process.

This is the new Heavenly Luxe Magic Eraser #15 Brush.  You won't get into the corners as you would a thin concealer brush, but  this is what you want for blending that concealer just so.

Ever since I started using concealer brushes, I noticed how much better my application than relying on your fingers.  To apply this concealer, I used my thinner concealer brush to smooth the product to the inner corners of my eye and higher under the eyes compared to my finger before using the fatter Heavenly Luxe Magic Eraser #15 Brush ($29) for going over the area to buff everything to perfection.  You do need both size of concealer brushes because they help you do different things.

Trust me on this, if Bye Bye Under Eye can hide my allergic shiners as well as it does, then it can do the same for you.  Check it out and the new Heavenly Luxe Magic Eraser #15 Brush at IT Cosmetics, QVC.com and Ulta!

Review: IT Cosmetics NEW CC + Vitality Brightening Creme Blush with Angled Radiance Brush to Dazzle Like You Were Born to!

Disclaimer:  This post is based on a free product provided by a company as a press sample so that I may offer my own  opinion, which may be the same or differ from yours.

IT Cosmetics CC+ Vitality Brightening Creme Blush

IT Cosmetics really does understand how to enhance a woman’s beauty and work with an aging face.  With their new CC+ Vitality Brightening Creme Blush and Angled Radiance Brush for application that I have been using, you can’t help but notice how fresh and genuine of a glow emerges while fading some years off a face in the process.

This blush comes in only one universal shade called Naturally Pretty, an innocent pink that reminds me of an infant’s cheek with its tender flush.  Regardless of your coloring, I think this particular tone of the creme blush shade can compliment all complexions from how this illuminating influx of healthy color manages to seep through the skin. 

You do have an advantage of picking up just enough of this creamy blush with how well this airy, angled brush captures this smooth spreading pigment.  If you need more, you just need to dip your brush in again for another round of pigment.

IT Cosmetics Angled Radiance Brush helps better deliver that amazing glow.

With my dry complexion, I loved how the CC+ Creme Blush made my cheeks beam to look dewy and so angelic while keeping that beautiful look intact for hours.  The glow was more natural appearing than a powder with how thoroughly it merged with my complexion.  

Here is a swatch of IT Cosmetics CC+ Vitality Brightening Creme Blush.

Thanks to IT Cosmetics amazing anti-aging technology that also hydrates with ingredients like with peptides, hydrolyzed collagen, niacin, algae, silk, anti-Oxidants, and Drops of Light Technology for brightening, this CC+ Creme Blush does a better job of distracting the eye from those fine lines and creases while it colors.  I call that remarkable.

Take it from this IT Cosmetics girl, try this CC+ Vitality Brightening Creme Blush ($24) and the Angled Radiance Brush ($48) and start subtracting some time of your face as well!   This one will be a keeper.

Review: IT Cosmetics NEW Limited Edition CC+ Bronzer SPF 50+

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

IT Cosmetics Limited Edition CC+ Bronzer SPF 50+

The transition from Winter to Spring left most of us with paler complexions.  To solve that problem especially with my light coloring, I turn to bronzers for gradually warming up my complexion.  When I heard those beauty innovators at IT Cosmetics developed another anti-aging bronzer with their new Limited Edition CC+ Bronzer SPF 50+, I knew this IT girl had to try it.

This is a color correcting bronzer full coverage cream that is also loaded with serious skin care ingredients such as hydrolyzed collagen, peptides, vitamins, hyaluronic acid, niacin, algae, and nourishing oils to help anti-aging as well as serving as a physical sunscreen with titanium dioxide and zinc oxide. 

This is  what the IT Cosmetics CC+ Bronzer looks like before blending.

Here I applied enough IT Cosmetics CC+ Bronzer so you can better see the degree of richness after layering.

Their Your Skin But Better CC+ Cream is a top favorite of mine with its great texture and beautiful full coverage.  This product has the same wonderful consistency, only this one is a bit sheerer with more of a dewy finish in how it covers, which I really liked with how fair I am to keep that healthy glow more natural. 

The universal shade of Bronze Glow that it comes in captures radiance from the sun quite well with the balance of brown to orange.  However, if you want a darker sort of tan or to keep up as your complexion gains more color, then it is easily arranged by pumping out more of this bronzer and building it up.

Though you can use your fingers to apply, I prefer using a makeup brush for blending and insuring even distribution.  This method always seems to give me a better finish.

I liked this product because bronzers can be tricky to wear for those of us more on the fair side, but the depth of color can be adapted to suit practically all skin tones.  Therefore, I say try IT Cosmetics Limited Edition CC+ Bronzer SPF 50+ ($35) because you nothing to lose but that winter paleness!  You can find at IT Cosmetics, Ulta, and QVC.com.

Review: IT Cosmetics CC+ Radiance Vitality Brightening Creme Disc and Airbrush Creme Brush

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

IT Cosmetics CC+ Vitality Brightening Creme Disc 

I couldn’t imagine IT Cosmetics topping their Vitality Brightening Anti-Aging Face Disc when they developed a cream form with their CC+ Radiance Vitality Brightening Creme Disc, but I have to admit my new found obsession with this giant compact for delivering an even more natural, dewy look to my dry skin than you might expect from makeup.

Inside this compact that is enriched with anti-aging ingredients such as hydrolyzed collagen, hyaluronic acid, peptides, acai, antioxidants, and green tea, to treat as well as color, is a gorgeous natural pink color correcting anti-aging creme blush, a creme matte bronzer in a light tan, and Hello Light Creme Illuminator.

IT Cosmetics Airbrush Creme Brush has uniquely spaced hairs to its angled design that helps performance.

When you take the Airbrush Creme Brush to this compact, its design is made specifically to pick up not as much product than some of your other brushes so it can leave your face with more of an airbrushed finish.  I did have my foundation, concealer, mascara, shadow, and liner already on before I began.

What worked the best for me was starting with the creamy illuminator this time to keep the brush from building up too much color then following with the bronzer and blush. This saved me from getting any of the darker shades in areas that needed highlighting.  The effect was pure beaming light without any glitter or shimmer pouring onto the skin.

I followed Jamie Kern’s chart on the back of the box and applied in the middle of my forehead, the top of brows, the corners of eyes, under the eyes, the top of the cheekbones, the center of the nose, my cupid’s bow, and to the center of the chin. 

Usually I contour first when using my normal brushes, but I did my contouring next.  I do have a fair complexion with yellow undertones.  In the compact, this tan shade looked a bit dark but that brush caught just enough to warm up my skin not overpower it with too much of a tan color.  If you’re darker, you just may need to apply more but for my skin, I was happy with less than more.

As to the pink creme blush, it promises instant health with a shade of pink that is so flattering for practically all skin tones.  

The magic of this compact is how once everything is blended, it has the power to brighten and color the face with a realistic sort of healthy glow that is as close to natural beauty.  This product also can look fresh for many hours of wear without diminishing. Perhaps, those with oily complexions may have different results, but this is my experience as one with dry skin.

My advice is check IT Cosmetics CC+ Radiance Vitality Brightening Creme Disc and the Airbrush Creme Brush, especially if your skin is dry because this is something you got to try.  You can also find these products on Ulta and QVC.com.

IT Cosmetics Your Skin But Better Anti-Aging Full Coverage Physical SPF 50 CC+ Cream Illumination  (Medium).  The shade is just a bit dark for my fair complexion.

The new Your Skin But Butter Anti-Aging Full Coverage Physical SPF 50 CC+ Cream Illumination that I received arrived in medium. Just like the original, I thought the formula provided wonderful coverage that was easy to adapt from light to heavy, depending on your skin care needs.  You can’t help but love how hydrating and yet unbelievably light it feels before that dewiness transforms to a perfect satin finish with some sensational brightness to it.  The best part of IT Cosmetics advances in anti-aging technology is you’re not just masking imperfections with this product but improving your skin enabling such a realistic natural glow to shine through that it does seem to take some years off of your face with sun protection to boot.

To further amp up my complexion, you can’t go wrong with their Anti-Aging Face Disc with matte bronzer, illuminating powder and that soft pink blush stain paired up with their new Heavenly Luxe Radiance Wand Brush.  This plush, domed brush is exceptional for a beautiful application with the way it captures the pigment and blends everything just so.

IT Cosmetics Anti-Aging Vitality Face Disc and Heavenly Luxe Radiance Wand Brush

The Luxe High Performance Eyeshadow Trio in Pretty in Spring has a soft medium brown, a gleaming champagne shade for highlight, and a medium peach, which is fresh and will work well with the nude shades that are springing up for the season. To make it even better, I always liked how nicely their No-Tug Dual Airbrush Eyeshadow Brush was for putting on shadows, especially for that feathery feel against the skin, besides blending and smudging.

Luxe High-Performance Anti-Aging Eye Shadow Trio in Pretty in Spring and the No-Tug Dual Airbrush Eyeshadow Brush from IT Cosmetics

The value of this CC+ Your Way to Radiant 5-Piece Collection is $172.  Though I don’t know the exact price for this upcoming midnight sale, I can tell you that it will be priced under $60!  Incredible, right?

How Never to Get Lipstick on Your Teeth Again!

You can end the embarrassment of getting lipstick on your teeth with this great makeup trick.

As beautiful as lipstick can color our lips, it can sometimes end up on our teeth, embarrassing us to no end. I don’t know about you, but it seemed to happen to me at the worst times like a first date, job interview, or something else where you needed to make a wonderful impression.  However, I want to share a great trick that will stop that awful lipstick problem once and for all.

After you apply your lipstick, I want you to stick your index finger in your mouth and then purse your lips around that finger.   Now slowly pull your finger out.  Any excess lipstick lands on your finger instead of those pearly whites this way.

Try it and you'll see how well this tip works!

IT Cosmetics New Year, Your Most Beautiful Skin 5-Piece Collection! (Review) Coming January 19, 2015 As QVC Today’s Special--Prepare to Shop!

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

IT Cosmetics New Year, Your Most Beautiful Skin 5-Piece Collection

Here’s something that I know you’re going to love–IT Cosmetics has another awesome new 5-piece collection set to debut in just a matter of days.  On January 19, 2015, their New Year, Your Most Beautiful Skin box will appear as QVC Today’s Special so prepare because this happens to be one of their best collections yet!

What’s so exciting about this particular collection is that these are five new IT Cosmetic products that your complexion has been waiting for.  Seriously, this stuff will protect, care for your skin and beautify you with color all at the same time.  With the gorgeous results that you can get, you are not going to believe your eyes.

Just wait until I tell you what you get like their CC+ Airbrush Perfecting Powder, Blurred Lines Smooth Fill Lipstick (Love), CC+ Eye Color Correcting Full Cover Cream With Cold Spoon Technology, CC+ Color Correcting Full Coverage Cream Compact and their CC+ Angled Buffing Foundation Brush.  I know this sounds fantastic, but it’s even more sensational once you actually play with these new anti-aging cosmetics.

The talc-free CC+ Airbrush Perfecting Powder provides a flattering and silky finish adhering to the skin more naturally than you may expect from a powder.  My bet is that moister quality has to be from its anti-aging ingredients like the hydrolyzed silk and collagen, peptides, and niacin.  I just wish that it could have been the right shade.

IT Cosmetics CC+ Airbrush Perfecting Powder (Light)

The CC+ Color Correcting Full Coverage Cream Compact (also Light) melts into the skin that you hardly know you have it on as it lays down lovely medium to full coverage while allowing skin to breathe with SPF 50 + UVA/UVB sun protection no less.   This is the same amazing product that is also sold in the tube only in compact form.  You press down to release the product, which flows through the hole to apply with their new CC+ Angled Buffing Foundation Brush. You don’t need to use too much because this stuff goes a long way.  It is just a tad darker than I would have liked.

As to IT Cosmetics new plush CC+ Angled Buffing Foundation Brush, this has more than 80,000 hairs. When you put it against your skin, it feels so luxurious like brushing with rose petals.  

IT Cosmetics CC+ Angled Buffing Foundation Brush is so pampering and meant for easier  maneuvering. 

Loving Bye Bye Under Eye Concealer as much as I do and probably you too, if you have tried it, I wondered why the company came out with another concealer.  The CC+ Eye Color Correcting Full Cover Cream with Cold Spoon Technology as far as color goes in Light is somewhat warmer and a thinner, but creamy consistency than Bye Bye Under Eye.  Though I loved the effect of that cooling tip when experimenting with it against my puffy allergy eyes in the morning, I still think the original formula for heavy duty coverage can't be beat to deal with my allergic shiners. This one also hydrates and treats the skin with hyaluronic acid, peptides, hydrolyzed collagen, silk and grape seed oil while it covers, hides darkness with more of a light to medium coverage and brightens.  At the same time, I thought the SPF 50+ UVA/UVB sunscreen was nice to find.

IT Cosmetics CC+ Eye Color Correcting Full Coverage Cream

The Blurred Lines Smooth Fill Lipstick is marvelous and smells so yummy too.  Love is truly one that you can use every day because it is a rosy nude that can give your face a lift without much effort. Better still is how this lippie cradles your lips so intensely in moisture thanks to the shea butter, jojoba, grape seed extract, cherry oil, and hyaluronic acid.  This feels so soothing slathering on my lips, especially now with winter chapping.  

IT Cosmetics Blurred Lines Smooth Fill Lipstick (Love)

I don’t know what the price will be when this New Year, Your Most Beautiful Skin! Collection appears on QVC on Monday, but knowing IT Cosmetics and their past deals, it should be exceptional and worth tuning in beginning at midnight Eastern Standard Time on January 19 until 11:59 PM Pacific Time the next day. Check it out because I know that I will!

The IT Girl Set Limited Edition CC+ Lip Serum Holiday Collection Review

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

Here is a photo of the IT Girl Set.

Aging is not particularly kind to women.  Besides dealing with creases that are settling in and changes in our complexion, lips thin.  A way around that particular problem is with The IT Girl CC+ Lip Serum Limited Edition Holiday Collection that I have been using from one of my favorite companies, IT Cosmetics.

This IT Girl Set ($39.50) has three of their awesome CC+ lip serums in Snow Bunny (sheer pale pink), Joy to the World (pinkish berry-plum) and Under the Mistletoe (sheer red raspberry). I think these lovely shades would be loved by most, but my favorite was a tie between Under the Mistletoe and Joy to the World for how those colors lit up my fair complexion. 

The amazing thing about this trio is that your lips get beautiful color while receiving a treatment to heal and hydrate with anti-aging ingredients such as collagen, peptides, hyaluronic acid, essential butters, and oils.  These lip serums are also intended to deal with lip lines and for color correcting.  

Take it from me, these lip serums really are wonderful products with what they can do. My dry lips instantly felt that soothing moisture coming to the rescue and were left in better condition afterwards.  Furthermore, these have a pleasing, non-sticky texture, which is just as important to me.

If you haven’t ever tried any of the CC+ lip serums from IT Cosmetics, I truly do recommend them. In fact, this set is a great place to start at a bargain price.  If purchased separately, this $39.50 priced set would run $72!

Find the IT Girl Set Limited Edition CC+ Lip Serum Holiday Collection at IT Cosmetics, QVC and qvc.com as well as ULTA stores and ulta.com.  Check it out!

Review: IT Cosmetics Limited Edition Naturally Pretty Celebration Matte Luxe Transforming Eyeshadow Palette!

**Disclaimer:  This post has been compensated through a free product (s) or monetary payment.  Opinions are solely mine. All links are "no-follow" links.**

IT Cosmetics Limited Edition Naturally Pretty Celebration Matte Eyeshadow Palette

Perhaps, age is starting to catch up with you with lines around the eyes.  Then again, maybe you just prefer the look of matte over shimmery eye shadows.  If either describes you, listen up because I was sent the ideal palette to help on both those fronts with IT Cosmetics Limited Edition Naturally Pretty Celebration Matte Luxe Transforming Eyeshadow Palette. 

Just as wonderful as IT Cosmetics original Naturally Pretty Matte Luxe Palette, this one consists of more darker neutrals that are on the cool side compared to the first that had some warmer and brighter shades. These 14 shadows are well-pigmented but somewhat sheerer than the original but look just as amazing and wear in the same incredible way.

Due to this company’s strides in formulating their shadows with anti-aging ingredients such as peptides, collagen, silk, green tea, acai, and antioxidants, these shadows blend and cling beautifully to your lid without looking dry.

These gorgeous colors included are: Snow Angel (soft creamy white with just a hint of peach); Champagne (pale beige); Cozy (light tan); Warm Wishes (dusty pink); Miracle (plum-taupe); Wonderland (pale brown with some plum); Peace (pink-toned brown); Hot Cocoa (dark neutral brown); Gingerbread (medium taupe-brown); Toasty (plum); Spice (plum-brown); Sugar Plum (medium purple); Starry Night (deep blue), and the last shade of Coal (nearly black-gray).   

Swatches of Limited Edition Naturally Pretty Celebration Matte Luxe Transforming Eyeshadow Palette

Another reason to love this set is if you ever tire of wearing mattes, you always have an option of shimmering eyelids again just by opting to use the Transforming Pearl shade along with the Transforming Ombre Radiance Ribbon over the shadow.

Now tell me can life get any better with IT Cosmetics Limited Edition Naturally Pretty Celebration Matte Lux Transforming Eyeshadow Palette ($42) in your corner?  Take it from me, you will want one of these for yourself.  This palette would also make a great holiday gift for any woman on your holiday shopping list!  

For a Flawless Look Every Time I Am Loving IT Brushes for ULTA Your Superheroes and Multi-Taskers Brush Sets! (Review)

When you want to get a flawless look every time, the right tools like a great set of makeup brushes can help you do it.  Good brushes are essential for smoothing and blending cosmetics, otherwise, your makeup will look obvious instead of natural.  If you are looking to buy some wonderful makeup brushes, you are going to love the two sets I received of IT Brushes for ULTA with their Superheroes and Multi-Taskers Brush Sets.

Both sets are fabulous and compact in a faux leather case whether you travel with it in your handbag to the office, vacation, or leave on your vanity.  They also feature luxurious brushes with soft bristles that feel comfortable when holding, which is important when trying to recreate a certain look that you're after.  Furthermore, there is no animal cruelty involved because these use synthetic fiber hairs that are both antimicrobial and antibacterial.  

The Multi-Taskers Travel Set ($48) is really handy with five nice brushes that you depend on for face and eyes every day.  This set includes one for powder and another for foundation. You also get three dual end brushes consisting of a liner & brow brush, a crease & concealer brush, and the all-over eye shadow brush & smudger.  You might say this is comparable to having eight unique tools in one set.  This is a $90 value if purchased separately.

This is the Multi-Taskers Set that has five brushes.

On the other hand, the Superheroes Travel Set ($50) is another fine choice with six full size brushes for face and eyes.  You get their unstoppable powder brush, a seamless foundation brush for applying cream and liquids, an effortless crease brush, a smoothing concealer brush, an absolute shadow brush, and a dual-sided flawless liner & brow brush that will amount to a $100 value, if you bought each separately.

The Superheroes Set 

You can’t go wrong with either set or any of IT’s brushes because they are functional and hold up through time.  The only thing that I wish the company would come out with next is a lip brush, preferably one that can be capped.   Do check these IT Brushes for Ulta for yourself or any beauty lover when making out your holiday gift list!
