Laura Geller New Baked Blush-N-Brighten- Honeysuckle & Peach Delight

New shades are ready to go in Laura Geller's Baked Blush- n -Brighten. There are three in all, two of which I have here- Honeysuckle and Peach Delight. ( Fruit Punch is the other new color).

It's the same Baked formula you love and know  for a smooth, color rich flush that's mineral oil and paraben free and infused with with antioxidants Centella Asiatica and White Tea Extracts .

Peach Delight is an instant face brightener . The coral peach isn't overly bold but gives plenty of soft focus color with light shimmer to help you look awake and sunny.

Honeysuckle is a  golden tan with swirls of pink.  It gives a bronzed look with pearl  and highlight while the small touch of pink adds a tiny bit of rosy warmth

Laura Geller New Baked Blush-N-Brighten are $ 27.50 at Ulta and LauraGeller.com 

MAC Flamingo Park Blushes- Spring Flock, Let's Be Friends & This Could Be Fun

It's been a blush bonanza this Winter and the goods keep coming. MAC's new Flamingo Park collection is packed with blush in shades of pink and peach. They're such a bright spot in the midst of Winter.  (There are plenty of lip and eye colors too. )

I've got three of the new shades - Spring Flock, This Could Be Fun and Let's Be Friends. All are bright , not for the faint of blush and pack pigment. All three are satin formulas. None have shimmer but as a satin  they have a little dimension to them . Spring Flock and Let's Be Friends have a bit of powder fall out.

This Could Be Fun, Spring Flock, Let's Be Friends

Of the shades here, Spring Flock is the lightest and goes on for a medium flush of peach. The others are  a quick hit of deeper, brighter color. Beautiful if you can wear these colors. For me ,Spring Flock is the pick of the bunch.


MAC Flamingo Park blush is $ 22 and is available online Jan. 28 , in store Feb. 4-Mar. 19 and are LE.

Yes To Coconut Ultra Hydrating Creme Cleanser

I tend to talk about cleansers for oily or normal skin more most of the time, but what about dry skin?

If you need serious moisture when you cleanse this new Yes To Coconuts might be for you.  If you were in the snowstorm zone this weekend, you know it's a must.

 You don't want to strip skin, especially drier skin when cleansing and this cleanser has a powerhouse of ingredients like Virgin Coconut Oil , Chia Seed Oil , Apricot Kernel Oil, Glycerin , and Avocado and Olive Fruit Oils.

The cleanser is a fairly thick cream that is almost balm like but not quite that thick. It feels wonderful and creamy on skin and has a light, delicious tropical coconut scent. When rinsed skin is clean but not tight . It's a great first step to keeping dry skin feeling good .

As usual with Yes To , this is cruelty free, with no parabens, SLS or silicone . It's 96 % natural.

Yes To Coconut Ultra Hydrating Creme Cleanser is $ 9.99 for 4 oz  at Target and Walgreens along with www.yestocarrots.com
