Though I am no airbrushing expert, I have come to appreciate an airbrush makeup system after experiencing the Luminess Air Makeup Airbrush Basic System for how it can delicately layer foundation  to perfect the complexion almost like a second skin. Using an airbrush pen takes practice to mist your makeup properly until you get the hang of it. 

However, if you want an easier route to airbrush coverage–-only without the machine and a stylus, then you need to mark your calender for October 27 and tune to your television to QVC at 10:00 P.M. for “The Find” with Shawn Killinger.  It is during that segment that the Luminess Air - AirSupremacy Airbrush Makeup 6-Piece Starter Kit that I was sent to test out will be released at a bargain price of $49 for this promotion.  Normally, this kit retails for $175!   

What the Luminess Air - AirSupremacy Airbrush Makeup 6-Piece Starter Kit can do is basically provide a manual misting application of air primer, foundation, blush, and travel makeup sealant for beautiful buildable coverage.  You also get tools to help in your beautification with a Pro-Air Blender and a brush.

I selected the Fair Kit that came with Luminess AirSupremacy Airbrush Foundations in Shade 1 and Shade 2.  This is a water-based, paraben, fragrance, and oil-free foundation with ultra-low pressure aerosol technology to deliver that fine mist for spraying on the products.

The first step was priming my face with the Luminess AirSupremacy Air Primer.  After shaking the can vigorously for about five seconds or so, I kept about six to eight inches from the nozzle to cheeks and forehead before spraying.  Then, I used my Pro-Air Blender and spread it where I needed.

Shaking up the Shade 1 AirSupremacy Airbrush Foundation for about five seconds, I applied it in the same way.  When I sprayed, I reached for my Pro-Air Blender to work the foundation in.  I continued spraying and layering until I got the coverage I needed, smoothing with the wonderful brush that was enclosed.  This brush washes up beautifully by the way.

Starting on the left is the Soft Rose blush, then Shade 1  and ending with Shade 2 Luminess Air - AirSupremacy Foundation from this Fair Starter Kit by my wrist.

You don’t have to spray directly from the can to your face.  You always have the option of spraying the Pro-Air Blender and apply or mix the foundations in that manner.  I just preferred spraying the product directly.

My Fair Kit came with the Soft Rose Blush, which was lovely.  Misting a blush was trickier to do trying to spray the same amount on both cheeks, but like anything else it takes practice.

To keep my finished face preserved, I found the Luminess AirSupremacy Makeup Sealant.  This product is advertised to keep your makeup application intact for up to 18 hours.  I can’t say for sure if lasts that long, but it does wear for hours on end.  I had this makeup on from early morning until last afternoon without being disappointed so my guess it might just do that.

Equally exciting is that other products in the  #Luminess Air- AirSupremacy line will be available from 12 shades of foundations, tattoo and blemish coverage, blushes, body shimmers and other sprayable beauty products that you might want to explore.

 Don’t miss this excellent sale on QVC.  In fact, the Luminess Air - AirSupremacy Airbrush 6-Piece Starter Kit would be ideal for holiday gift giving.  What woman wouldn’t appreciate $175 worth of everything to get her gorgeous for the holidays?  Check it out!

Review: Citrus Verbena Eau de Toilette and Shower Gel from L’Occitane en Provence--A Wonderful Feel Good Scent for Summer!

Summer is the time you want a lighter fragrance to properly embrace the season.  If you want one fitting for the task, L’Occitane en Provence’s Citrus Verbena Eau de Toilette is as an airy ode to cool freshness that can do it in style. The sheer beauty of this citrus fragrance may be just the ideal blend for you once the barometer climbs.

The fragrance opens with a brisk start with top notes of grapefruit and lemon.  The combination seems to give your senses a crisp jolt of freshness.

As the scent further warms, the lemon verbena note in the heart kicks in.  This makes for a sweet transition to curb the sourness to soon turn the mix into something delectable like a lemon treat to tempt you with.

Once the fragrance begins to dry down, it becomes even more heavenly as the cedar emerges in this base. The cedar adds the ultimate touch giving a soft muskiness to the green and citrus resulting in a delicate fresh herbal clean that is captivating and so easy to wear.

I also got to try the Citrus Verbena Shower Gel, which is delightful with its organic verbena and grapefruit extracts besides lemon oil for starting or ending a warm day.  

Check out the Citrus Verbena Collection at L’Occitane en Provence, including the new Citrus Verbena Eau de Toilette.  If you want a good deal, the Citrus Verbena Summer Fragrance normally retails for $58 but is now on sale for $46 for the 5.1 oz. bottle while the Shower Gel sells for $20 for 8.4 oz.

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.

Workout clothes can run into money, if you’re not careful.  However, RBX Active is a new brand that is quite sensibly priced and trendy with their fitness wear collection of tops, bottoms and jackets like the Patterned Capri Digital Camo Legging that I received. 

This Capri is mostly polyester (88%) with ample 12% spandex to give it stretch as well as a waistband pocket, which comes in handy for tissue or key.  It also has X-DRI technology with sweat-wicking materials to keep you comfortable.  Furthermore, it features fade resistant, machine washable fabric in its construction so you can keep on looking good.

Check out RBX Active Brand's Patterned Capri Legging.  This is the Digital Camo Capri.

I selected the Small (fitting size 4/6) in Military Green  and liked the high-rise and flat lock stearns in this fit for smoothing.  It also comes in three additional sizes of medium (6/8), large (8-10) and extra large (fitting size 12-14) at a price of $29.99 with four other choices of colors in that camo pattern.

This is the SMALL of RBX Active Brand’s Patterned Capri Legging (Digital Camo).  It looks huge from this angle, but it is sized correctly.


You can find RBX Active in department and sporting good stores,  speciality retailers, or at the company’s website.  Do check them out.

This couldn’t be a better time to do some browsing at RBX Active since the company is currently offering Nuts 4 Stuff readers a coupon code where you can save 25% now through July 31, 2015 when you enter coupon code, Active25 at checkout.

Like a lot of women, I have a passion for shoes.  When I find a great pair like the ones below, I am in my element.  I am especially excited about saving on shoes I need like the Del Mar White Grey Floral sandals I received from California Footwear Company, which is one of the eight models currently on sale.

I hate anything wedged between my toes when walking, which was just as important as pretty style when I made my selection.  These comfortable sandals also have lightweight ergonomic construction with reflexology bubbles designed to cushion feet as you step.  

You don't have to worry about tipping the scales at the airport when weighing your bag with a pair inside for vacation.  So if you're getting ready to travel, I really recommend checking out this sale because from now until June 5, the company is slashing prices on last year's popular beach sandals for up to 60% off.

Here's how the VIP Summer Sale works on those featured eight models.   Buy one pair of their sale Beach/Spa sandals and save 30%, two pairs 45% and three or more pairs are 60% off!  (Savings for that sale price show up in your shopping cart). 

Even if you're homebound and not planning any vacation, the tootsies will appreciate the open exposure being cradled and gently massaged in these sandals so take advantage of this sale while it lasts.  Remember June 5, 2013 is the date this sale ends!
