Yeah, I know I am a couple of days late with this news. But it has me excited. Ellen Degeneres announced on her September 16th show that she will be representing Cover Girl Cosmetics. The ads will start appearing in January of 2009. It is a great choice for many reasons with one major reason being her wide appeal. Many people love Ellen. She is smart, funny, and very confident in herself. To many young women she is a role model for these reasons alone. Good move, Proctor and Gamble. Having Ellen as the new Cover Girl is not a Gamble (yeah, that was corny).
Yes, I will stop with the stupid headlines. I just couldn't resist.
Perscriptives Daring collection is one of the four fall collections that I absolutely love! Of course, I love a matte eye look for fall so that might have something to do with it.
For those of you who are not familiar with Prescriptives Cosmetics, they have some of the best foundation on the market today. When you go to a counter, they Colorprint you. That means they determine the undertones of your skin and then design makeup looks around that. When I was Colorprinted, it was determined that I was a B/R. But I still wear makeup out of the other groupings: R/O, Y/O, and R.
In fact, one of the products that I bought out of the Daring collection was the Fall Demensions Eyeshadow Quad for R/O. All the shades are extremely wearable (including one very pretty dark blue) and make a great matte look with great pigment and depth. The shades are pongee, relic, exclusive new shade colbalt, and Malt Sparkle. I have been using Pongee all over my lid, with Malt Sparkle in the crease, and relic on the lid. I then use Cobalt as an eyeliner. It is rather conservative but very striking especially if you have blue eyes, which I do. And all the colors are buildable to whatever intensity you wish them to do.
The quads are $45 a peice so if you want to make one big slurge for this fall, one of these quads should be it.
Other items in the collection include the three other eyeshadow quads for B/R, Y/O, and R. The limited edition Sparkle Eye Pencil in Plum Sparks and Midnight Sparks, limited edition Lash Envy in Plum and Midnight, Moombeam Reflective Gloss in Eclipse, Comet, Meteor, and Jupiter. Colorscope Lip Color comes in Champange, Peep, Berry Oodles, and Rose Mystique for this collection. Colorscope Cheek Color comes in Brown Sugar, Pink Horizon, Cherry Blossom, and Apple Blossom for Daring.
