My Current Crush: Jane Cosmetics Olive Branch Eye Shadow

Posted on January 22, 2014 by BeautyFrosting

Today’s post is sweet and simple because, well, it’s simple…and sweet. Well, more savory but I digress.

I LOVE this shadow that Jane Cosmetics is churning out. I know I just talked about it a few weeks ago – but, y’all (she says in a whiny voice) – there are sooooo many beautiful, highly pigmented, long wearing shades!!!

My Current Crush though is Jane’s Olive Branch eye shadow ($8). This shimmering golden khaki-meets-olive is just what the chef ordered for any eye color. Green eyes? No-brainer beauty. Got blue or hazel? The gold in this will make ‘em pop. Brown? See pics below for evidence.

Yep, it’s love. And I have a feeling this is just the beginning of many a crush on Jane Cosmetics products.
I’m utterly smitten.

Smitten as a kitten.

Yes, I know I look like a goofball in this pic but look at that gorgeous smudged eyeliner this shadow gives us!!

My Current Crush: Givenchy Le Rouge in Grenat Initié – the purrrrfect holiday lip color

Posted on November 27, 2013 by BeautyFrosting

It’s simple, ladies. Red lips = instant sex appeal. They’re bold, confident and just purr at their intended target, “Come hither…”.

From the silver screen sirens to red carpet ravens to the pouty pretties who grace the pages of Playboy, red lips just say, “I’m sexy.”

Trying to put the "Coy" in McCoy...

And anything that does that effectively is gonna be a crush of mine.
So who am I tipping my hat to this week just in time for Thanksgiving?
My Current Crush: Givenchy Le Rouge in Grenat Initié ($36).

I wore it to lunch the other day with my friend, Aphrodite and literally 2 women stopped me on the street to ask what I was wearing.

Did I mention that it gives you attention-getting lips?

No wallflowers were hurt while wearing this lipstick...

Plus, the semi-matte shade comes dressed in the sleekest, most seductive real leather case so even just picking up the tube makes me feel a little bit sexier.

Yep, it’s my crush of the week and now you can be smitten with it, too. And just in time for Thanksgiving tomorrow and the holiday season ahead!

I tip my hat to you…

I tip my hat to you, Givenchy Grenat Initié

By My Bedside: L’Oreal Age Perfect Glow Renewal Facial Oil & Replenishing Moisturizer

Posted on October 22, 2013 by BeautyFrosting

I’m in my homestate of Texas this week and I had the pleasure of going to the State Fair of Texas this past Saturday. I must say that not many things make me feel like a kid again like eating a corndog and riding those rides.

The fair just makes me feel like a kid again. But lucky for me - and you - we can get that glow all-year round.

So while I might not feel youthful all the time, I am utterly delighted that L’Oreal Age Perfect Glow Renewal products sure bring back the youthful glow to my skin in a pinch…and for a penny of a price!

Seriously, one of the biggest complaints I hear from women over 25 is that their skin has lost its luster. Well, complain no longer, my sisters, because these products bring that youthful, dewy glow of your youth back.

I start the “get-glowing” process with the with L’Oreal Age Perfect Glow Renewal Facial Oil ($24.99). After cleansing my skin at night, I apply 4-5 drops of this deeply nourishing yet non-greasy oil. This blend of 8 essential oils absorbs quickly and delivers intense hydration for all-day moisture and glow. I also love applying it in the morning underneath my spf prior to applying my makeup.

Next, I apply the L’Oreal Age Perfect Glow Renewal Replenishing Moisturizer ($19.99). With just an M&M-sized amount, this luxuriously lightweight moisturizing cream seals in skin’s essential oils – giving the skin an instant youthful glow – and over time, firms your skin. I also love using it to revive my skin after a long day by applying it while I’m stepping up my eye makeup for an evening out. That gorgeous glow is no joke, beauties.

Even the dullest, driest skin will glow with these products. And that’s a BF promise.

As for me, I’m just happy to know that there are products that will keep me glowing until next year’s corndog fair fiesta!
