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!

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

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!

IT Cosmetics CC+ Your Way to Radiant Skin! 5-Piece Collection

I can’t wait to tell you the great news. One of my favorite makeup brands, IT Cosmetics, is set to put another five-piece collection as a Today’s Special Value on QVC with their  CC+ Your Way to Radiant Skin box! This deal will happen on Friday, March 27, 2015 at midnight (Eastern Time) so set that alarm now because this has the perfect beauty products you’ll want to get ready for Spring!

You don’t want to miss out because you get three new IT Cosmetics products with their Your Skin But Better Anti-Aging Full Coverage Physical SPF 50 CC+ Cream Illumination, a new edition of Luxe High-Performance Anti-Aging Eye Shadow Trio in Pretty in Spring, and their No-Tug Dual Airbrush Eyeshadow Brush.  If this isn’t reason to get you excited about staying up, then let me finish because you also get that huge compact of their Anti-Aging Vitality Face Disc and a Heavenly Luxe Radiance Wand Brush, which I always use since it can light up a face instantly.

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.

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.

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?  

Now you must be feeling as hyped as I am at this point so do remember to make a date with IT Cosmetics and QVC Beauty for Friday, March 27,2015 at midnight (Eastern Time) to take advantage of this awesome sale.  This IT Girl will see you there.

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.**

The IT Girl Set.jpeg
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 Naturally Pretty Celebration Palette.jpeg
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).

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!

IT Cosmetics Luxe High Performance Eyeshadow Trio (Pretty In Nudes) + “No-Tug” Heavenly Luxe Dual Eyeshadow Brush 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.**

IT Cosmetics Luxe High Performance Eyeshadow Trio.jpeg
This is the Pretty in Nude Luxe High Performance Eyeshadow Trio by IT Cosmetics


Smoky eyes for Fall 2014 will be softer with more muted tones of gray and beige to the brown to balance the stronger hue of deep, stained berry lips.  A wonderful way to start the season in style to achieve this look is with IT Cosmetics (Pretty in Nude) Luxe High Performance Eyeshadow Trio and their "No-Tug" Heavenly Luxe Dual Eyeshadow Brush for blending

The colors are a delicate beige-taupe, a pale peach, and a lighter pink that apply buttery-smooth due to IT Cosmetics revolutionary anti-aging formula with skin-loving ingredients that include vitamins, hydrolyzed collagen, green tea, and acai extracts that treat as well as provide gentle definition. 

There is a subtle gleam to the taupe and peach, but the pink only has a trace of this radiance that is very becoming in how this shadow can light up your eyes.

What else I love about IT Cosmetics shadows are they can wear for hours without creasing or fading.  In fact, I never felt the need to prime.

I do strongly encourage you to let IT Cosmetics help you shine this Fall with their Luxe High Performance Eyeshadow (Pretty in Nudes) Trio and No-Tug Heavenly Luxe Dual Eye Shadow Brush to pull it off.  Both retail for $24 each.  Find them online at IT Cosmetics, QVC, or Ulta.

NEW IT Cosmetics CC+ Veil Beauty Fluid Foundation, CC+ Ombre Radiance Bronzer and CC+ Lip Serums (Laugh, Love) Review + ($120) #ItsGotYouCovered Giveaway!--Ends August 18, 2014

**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+ Veil Beauty Fluid Foundation.jpeg
IT Cosmetics CC+ Veil Beauty Fluid Foundation

If you want the look of immaculate, glowing skin but never knew how to get it, listen up because with the latest batch of IT Cosmetics that dream can be your new reality.  I’m talking about their new CC+ Veil Beauty Fluid Foundation, CC+ Ombre Radiance Bronzer and polishing that perfection off with their CC+ Lip Serums.

The CC+ Veil Beauty Fluid Foundation SPF 50 ($38) is aptly referred to as a cushion makeup, a cream foundation in compact form whereas the sponge stays “cushioned” deeper into the product so each time you press and use it, the foundation keeps flowing to saturate the sponge with anti-aging serum with ingredients like peptides, niacin, algae, vitamins A, C, B, E, hyaluronic acid, and hydrolyzed collagen to benefit skin as it works.

The foundation has a thinner type of consistency than what you normally find in a compact. At first, I thought the product might be messy with how fluid it is, but it adhered quickly to my skin like a glove.   The coverage was sheerer than the heavier Unlike Your Skin But Better CC Cream with SPF 50+, but evened out my dry complexion and perfected it nicely without the look of any pores. Furthermore, this lightweight foundation was so super-natural looking, giving my complexion an inner glow at the same time that looked genuine–not like I was even wearing makeup.  

CC+ Cream.jpeg
You can never go wrong with Your Skin But Better CC+ Cream either, especially when you need more coverage.

I do want to point out that the shade will look darker than normal so do not be alarmed that you made a bad choice.  I went with Fair, but it lightened up once it went on my face.

Next, I sampled the CC+ Ombre Radiance Bronzer ($34) that arrived.  This tweaked that awesome looking complexion with some glistening, healthy warmth in its nourishing, anti-aging formula that also is waterproof. It didn’t look powdery in the least only more like I got a bit of sun.  If you prefer a matte finish over a shimmer one, you can concentrate on the section with that finish instead of the part with more glistening power.

CC+ Ombre Radiance Bronzer.jpeg
CC+ Ombre Radiance Bronzer
For my lips, I received two tubes of CC+ Lip Serum ($24) to complete my new summer transformation.  This is a very moisturizing gloss with nine butters and oils, collagen, peptides, and hyaluronic acid for anti-aging benefits for feeling so good while being lightweight to color lips with a pretty shine that lacks stickiness.  Laugh is an ideal pink nude while Love is a delightful rosy shade with some berry to it.

laugh lip serum.jpeg
This is Laugh.


love-lip-serum.jpeg
Here is Love.

I really do love IT Cosmetics even more now that they invented the CC+ Veil Beauty Fluid Foundation for making flawless skin an everyday reality.  Throw in the CC+ Ombre Radiance Bronzer and CC+ Lip Serums to subtly polish your look off and you won’t believe the difference in your beauty. 

Do try these products and you’ll understand why I’m so enthralled with them–and IT Cosmetics!  Buy them at IT Cosmetics, Ulta, and Ulta.com.

Thanks to IT Cosmetics, one lucky Nuts 4 Stuff reader in the continental United States wins all four IT Cosmetics:  the CC+ Veil Beauty Fluid Foundation (shade of your choice), CC+ Ombre Radiance Bronzer, and both CC+ Lip Serums in Laugh and Love ($120 value)!

Summer Beauty Must-Have! -- IT Cosmetics Celebration Foundation (Fair, Light Medium) 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.**

IT Cosmetics Celebration Foundation in Fair.jpeg
IT Cosmetics Celebration Foundation in Fair

Many of us have the same problem of falling between two shades of foundation.  Though I don’t have the fairest white skin like some natural born redheads, my complexion is the lightest beige.  Thus, finding the perfect shade can be tricky. However, I have some tips how to choose wisely when it comes to making a foundation selection.

Start with one of my favorite brands, IT Cosmetics.  Their Celebration Foundation can give skin fresh, radiant coverage that doesn’t weigh it down or settle into your lines due to their extraordinary anti-aging ingredients like hydrolyzed collagen, peptides, niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, rose, silk, aloe and those drops of light technology for that overall illuminating effect.  

This is a lightweight, full-coverage mineral foundation ideally suited for the summer heat with how the formula allows skin to breathe instead of feeling heavy like some others you might have tried.  Another thing I love about it is how easy it is to take with you whether in your handbag or suitcase so you can touch up with a flip of that compact.

The Celebration Foundation in Fair is a pale beige as you can see from my photo.  This one is the closest to my skin tone and the best for me for how it matches face with the neck.

On the other hand, the Celebration Foundation in Light Medium is slightly darker with more warmth of an olive-tone. With the yellow in my skin, this gives me more color but doesn’t mesh with my neck as precisely as Fair.
IT Cosmetics Celebration Foundation (light-medium).jpeg
This is IT Cosmetics Celebration Foundation in Light/Medium

As to the problem on how to decide between two shades of foundation, I recommend going with the lighter choice when in doubt.  Those with oily complexions should pay particular attention if you have problems with your face turning orange or ashy gray from your current foundation formulation.  Keep this in mind especially in regard to liquid varieties, which can oxidize to cause that color change. 

If you’re searching for a fabulous foundation to keep you looking good this summer, you got to try IT Cosmetics Celebration Foundation ($35) because it can and will.   Buy online at  IT Cosmetics, Ulta Beauty, Ulta.com, QVC and QVC.com and The Shopping Channel.

IT Cosmetics NEW Liner Love Waterproof Creme Gel Eyeliners (Espresso, Rich Plum) 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.**

IT Cosmetics  Liner Love Waterproof Creme Gel Espresso Eyeliner.jpeg
IT Cosmetics  Liner Love Waterproof Creme Gel Espresso Eyeliner

Most of the time, I prefer eyeliner pencils for every day because of the control you have over the thick or thinness of the line. The fact you can smudge that line is something else that I like when trying to keep your look natural. Nights, however, I like to glam it up with more dramatic eyes and switch out pencils for eyeliner pens and liquid liners.


Though I am new to a creme gel form of eyeliner in a pot that you need to brush on, I needed to try IT Cosmetics new Liner Love Waterproof Creme Gel Eyeliners. After all, I rely on their No-Tug Waterproof Gel Eyeliner pencils ever since I reviewed them so I had to see how these would compare when you need to go all out gorgeous.


The company sent me Espresso (black-brown) and Rich Plum (intense purple bordering on black) and a Heavenly Luxe 10-in-1 Tightline Liner Brush to apply with. In the pots, these rich colors look lighter than when you start brushing.

IT Cosmetics Liner Love Waterproof Creme Rich Plum Gel Eyeliner.jpeg
IT Cosmetics Liner Love Waterproof Creme Rich Plum Gel Eyeliner

Being a novice with this form, it took me a few bungled attempts with the brush before perfecting my line. Once I finally got the hang of this angled, two-sided brush, this eyeliner spread smoothly as I painted without tugging that fragile area.

Heavenly Luxe 10-in-1 Tightline Liner Brush.jpeg
Heavenly Luxe 10-in-1 Tightline Liner Brush
At the same time, my eye area benefitted from IT Cosmetics anti-aging ingredients with its lash enhancing peptide, collagen, and vitamins for doing more than just beautifying them.

Both shades beautifully enhanced my dark brown eyes, but with the Espresso my eyes appear blacker while the Rich Plum made the brown color seem to show up. 

I do think Liner Love Waterproof Creme Gel Eyeliners ($24) are wonderful for when you want to look extra special, especially for nighttime. They do require little more work and developing a knack with the Heavenly Luxe 10-in-1 Tightline Liner Brush ($24) but the results are worth it.

Do check these out at IT Cosmetics, QVC.com, Ulta Beauty, and the Shopping Channel!

Review: IT Cosmetics Brow Power Lift Pencil

**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 Brow Power Lift Pencil.jpeg
IT Cosmetics Brow Power Lift Pencil


Who knew one little pencil like the Brow Power Lift from IT Cosmetics could be so indispensable to a face?  Once you see what a flick of either end of this creamy, two-sided pencil can do to help transform your face, you will understand why I think this product is a must for your makeup bag.

One end of this creamy pencil is a rich matte pink-nude for brightening and the other is a pearly light pink-beige for illuminating.  This pencil also comes equipped with its own sharpener.  

With this one product, you can emphasize your brow bone, use along the inner corners of your eyes for a fresher look or any other areas that could benefit from some much needed brightening.  As exciting as that may be, this pencil can even help you turn back the clock to create an illusion of a lifting effect that will distract the eye away from the obvious like a wrinkle with its micronized pigments. 

Now you are starting to get the hang of why I think this is a great pencil since it can do so much.  And as it does those wonderful things, there is even more reason I love this product.  The formula itself treats skin to anti-aging benefits with hydrolyzed collagen, vitamins A, C, and E, and real silk among other ingredients.

Brow Power Lift retails for $24 at IT Cosmetics.  You can also find it at QVC and QVC.com, Ulta Beauty, the Shopping Channel and shoppingchannel.com.

Take it from this IT Cosmetics girl, this is a beauty goodie that will definitely help give you the best face possible.

Amazing New Beauty Finds--IT Cosmetics New Year, Your Most Beautiful You! Five-Piece 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.**
IT Cosmetics New Year, Your Most Beautiful You! Five-Piece Collection.jpeg
IT Cosmetics New Year, Your Most Beautiful You! Five-Piece Collection


Looking good all day was never easier than with the great set of newly launched products from IT Cosmetics with their New Year, Most Beautiful You Five-Piece Collection that showed up at my door.  Inside is everything you need to get your complexion picture-perfect with coverage that illuminates.  

This collection will be on sale for only one day on December 28, 2013 on QVC and QVC.com from midnight to 2:59 A.M. the next day Eastern Standard Time for just $59.96!

I am so thrilled with these new products, which include a Feel the Moment Anti-Aging Primer Serum with Heavenly Luxe Sensory Sweeping Fan Brush, Celebration Foundation Illumination with Heavenly Luxe Double Airbrush Foundation Buffing Brush, and the Eyelift in A Tube - Bye Bye Under Eye and Hello Light Liquid Brightener Dual End Concealer

Though all the products were fantastic, I was particularly impressed with the Feel the Moment Primer.   This primer has caviar extract, hydrolyzed collagen, peptides, hyaluronic acid, vitamins, jojoba, avocado, and deep ocean water.  

Once I swept some of the new primer with my fan brush and the tiny pan that comes with it, my dry skin felt noticeably more hydrated and velvety.  This was a feat considering how extra dry my skin becomes in the winter even with a moisturizer, but this new formula really pumped up that comfort factor for me.  I waited for about a minute until the primer had a chance to set before experimenting with the new Celebration Foundation Illumination in Light.  

After I applied the Celebration Foundation Illumination with the plush Airbrush Foundation  Brush, my pores seemed to vanish and the light beige color suited me nicely.  This is a finely milled foundation that does highlight subtly in the process.  This product beautifully woke up my complexion with a bit more brightness than the Celebration Foundation as it covered and treated my skin with a host of IT Cosmetics remarkable anti-aging ingredients.

The last product in this kit is the new Eyelift in A Tube.  This product combines Bye Bye Under Eye and Hello Light Liquid Brightener Dual End Concealer.

The color I got was Light/Medium.  This tube has a sponge wand with a Bye Bye Under Eye concealer at one end (Neutral/Medium) and Hello Light at the other.  The consistency of the concealer is thicker and hides whatever imperfection you need gone.  The product does thin somewhat if you dot some on your hand and dab on for doing the eye area.  

This is the same fine Bye Bye Under Eye Concealer only in new formThe Neutral/Medium shade was just a bit dark for me for under my eyes.  The Hello Light Liquid Brightener at the opposite end had Light Radiance, which did boost the lightness under my eye area more.  I especially loved how this brightener brought a flood of light to my brow and cheek bones. 

Take it from this IT girl, but this is an exciting batch of cosmetics.  Don't miss out because this sale price of $59.96 won't last.  Mark your calendar for December 28 or pre-order IT Cosmetics New Year, Your Most Beautiful You!  Five-Piece Collection  on QVC.com.

These are not your typical lipsticks.  Instead, they are amazing stains that deliver a stunning, lasting flush of color.   And yet, they are so much more with the way they act as a lip balm and a moisturizing gloss with a lipstick thrown in.  Though as fantastic all that is, I loved how natural these stains looked when wearing like that perfect flush of color emerged from my own lips.

The set includes Pretty Woman (sheer, deep berry); Je Ne Sais Quoi (the palest pink that transforms into a natural flush of healthy pink upon application); Rose Flush (soft splash of sheer rose); Love Story (vibrant medium pink); Pure Joy (brilliant pearl-mauve), and Damsel (warm peach-pink neutral).
