UNTOLD COLLECTION
LIMITED EDITION BEAUTIFUL COLOR EYE SHADOW QUAD
Price: $40
Shades: Chic Browns (deep browns and sandy taupes), Posh Purples (purples and pinks)
DESCRIPTION:
Become your own makeup artist with Elizabeth Arden's versatile, four shade Beautiful Color Eye Shadow Quads. Each palette holds a mix of perfectly coordinated shades in shimmer and matte finishes curated by Global Makeup Artist Rebecca Restrepo, for a multitude of eye-popping looks. Both custom quads - Chic Browns and Posh Purples - feature buildable, long-lasting and crease free shadows that glide easily onto lids for color that brightens and lifts the look of the eyes. Palette comes complete with a double-sided eye shadow brush and is presented in a sleek white compact that's adorned with a gilded plaque.
KEY INGREDIENTS:
- Advanced Pigment Technology: Coats each pigment particle with a blend of silky silicone for a luxurious and smooth application with exceptional color saturation.
- Retinyl Linoleate: A Vitamin A derivative that helps support skin's own natural collagen products, helping to reduce the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
- Vitamins C and E: Rich in antioxidants, these vitamins help to reduce free radical damage and protect the skin from visible signs of aging.
REBECCA RECOMMENDS:
"Using several shades in your eye makeup creates dimension and drama. For eyes that pop, sweep the lightest shade over the lid from lash line to brow. Swipe the second lightest shade over the whole lid. Next, create a "V" along the outer and lower lashlines with the darkest shade. Finally, use the deepest shade as a liner along the upper and lower lash lines."
MY THOUGHTS:
I received the Limited Edition Beautiful Color Eye Shadow Quad in the Posh Purple colors. The first thing I noticed was the ultra couture compact the eye shadows are housed in. The fancy compact truly makes for a 'wow' factor first impression. I could not wait to try out the four beautiful eye shadow colors, and the next thing I noticed is the eye shadows are so highly pigmented that you only need to use a small amount of eye shadow to reap the benefits of each enchanting color. The eye shadows glide over your skin so softly and perfectly, they are really some of the finest eye shadows I have used! I took Rebecca's advice and applied them using her tips and I am just thrilled with how well the four colors work together to instantly transform the entire look of my eyes. I highly recommend this palette and how unique it is to find an eye shadow palette that offers skin treatment benefits in addition to such lovely color.
LIMITED EDITION BEAUTIFUL COLOR LUMINOUS LIP GLOSS
Price: $18
Shades: Glamorous Gold and Intriguing Violet
DESCRIPTION:
Multidimensional and moisture-rich, Beautiful Color Luminous Lip Gloss features a lip-plumping, long-lasting formula, with a hint of vanilla scent, for a pillowy pout that's drenched in vibrant color, infused with Maxi-Lip which has been clinically proven to increase the appearance of lip volume by 40%, reduce the appearance of furrows by 30% and increase moisture by 60%.
Additionally, conditioning and hydrating ingredients soothe and comfort lips like a balm, while providing the brilliant shine of a gloss. Beautiful Color Lip Gloss is available in two-limited edition shimmering shades, Glamorous Gold and Intriguing Violet. A soft tip paddle applicator deposits the perfect amount of gloss and a built-in mirror allows for convenient on-the-go application.
KEY INGREDIENTS:
- Maxi-Lip: Helps support natural collagen for smoother, plumper and more defined looking lips.
- Mango Butter and Shea Butter: Natural emollients that help lock in moisture to protect and soothe lips
- Super Sterol Ester: Softens and moisturizes lips.
REBECCA RECOMMENDS:
"Using a gold shade of lip gloss on lips creates a gorgeous natural nude. You can also layer the shade on top of other lips colors to give them a more golden alluring look."
MY THOUGHTS:
I received the Limited Edition Beautiful Color Luminous Lip Gloss in the sensational Glamorous Gold color. I love it because it is elegant yet ideal to wear during the daytime hours. I strive to keep my look natural and this lip gloss adds that element of shimmer to my otherwise ordinary natural daily look.
I was not born with naturally plump lips, in fact, my lips are really small and thin. So I noticed right away that the Maxi-Lip ingredient in this product worked its magic to plump up and make my lips appear fuller. I kept re-applying the product to keep that fullness going, and the hint of vanilla scent to the lip gloss made that task a real pleasure.
I try and drink lots of water throughout the day to stay hydrated, but for some reason my lips are always on the dry side. This lip gloss cut down on my dry lips issue immediately, and I am noticing that because I am using this lip gloss consistently now I have no more dry lips. Another fine reason to love this product.
This past weekend for the Thanksgiving holiday I was wearing darker lip stick and I applied this Glamorous Gold Lip Gloss on top of my darker shades of lip sticks and it added a subtle hint of shimmer and gold to the color which made my lips looks so radiant and pretty. Another great tip from Rebecca!
BEAUTIFUL COLOR PRECISION GLIDE EYE LINER
Price: $22
Shades: Black Velvet, Slate, Java, Sapphire, Blackberry and Emerald
DESCRIPTION:
Enriched with a powerful blend of skincare ingredients, Beautiful Color Precision Glide Eyeliner consistently delivers long-wearing, fashion forward hues. This soft, creamy pencil lines eyes with intense, buildable color for dramatic definition that lasts 14 hours. Featuring an ultra-fine tip, this waterproof, smudge proof and transfer proof formula seamlessly glides along the lash line and can be easily blended for a smoldering look. Beautiful Color Precision Glide Eye Liner is available in six shades ranging from classic to fashion-forward hues. Each shade was designed to work in perfect harmony with Elizabeth Arden's extensive range of Beautiful Color Eye Shadows.
KEY INGREDIENTS:
- Emollient Enriched Pigments: These concentrated mineral pigments provide rich, flexible color that lasts for 14 hours.
- Mica Mineral: A pearlized mineral that illuminates and brightens the eye area.
- Shea Butter: A natural emollient that helps to moisturize and retain elasticity in the skin around the eye.
- Vitamins C, E: Antioxidant rich vitamins that help to protect against free radical damage that cause visible signs of aging while keeping skin moisturized-looking and radiant.
REBECCA RECOMMENDS:
"Apply eye liner in short, connecting strokes instead of one long line to minimize any unevenness. Begin at the outer corner of the eye and glide the liner to the inner corner staying as close to the upper and lower lash line as possible. Be sure to close where the lines meet in the outer corner. For a classic cat eye, use Beautiful Color Precision Glide Eye Liner's ultra-fine tip to add a wing to the upper lash line. For a smokey eye, use the built-in smudger to gently blend the eye liner, especially along the upper lash line".
MY THOUGHTS:
I am a real klutz when it comes to applying eye liner with any degree of professionalism. So it is with such enthusiasm and excitement that I say to you that you can achieve professional looking results when you line your eyes with these Beautiful Color Precision Glide Eye Liners. They glide on effortlessly, so softly and expertly. They are a dream to use! I received the Slate and the Emerald colors and they are magnificent! The ideal colors to highlight and enhance your eyes. I have been using them everyday now. I can create super thin lines or more dramatic thicker lines, you can master the technique in moments. Mistake proof, long wearing eye liners that are innovative in design so you can achieve flawless application each and every time.
I followed Rebecca's instructions to the word and her technique made my using these eye liners so easy. I thought I may have a learning curve, but from the very first time I used them, I was thrilled with my results. No more crooked lines and having to fix them before leaving the house. Who has time for that, right?!
