Lipstick Powder N Paint

We’re huge fans of anything that lets us run out the door looking fabulously flawless, especially if it takes mere minutes to apply. Stila‘s One Step ( $57 / US $44) is an all-in-one mineral based primer, foundation, concealer and powder. (more…)

Treat and camouflage pesky under eye circles with Garnier’s Nutritioniste Skin Renew Anti-Dark Circle Eye Roller ($19.99). Simply sweep the (almost magical) eye roller from the inner corner to the outer corner of your eyes and over your eyelids to banish darkness with the brightening, long-wearing concealer and nutrient-rich formula. Then gently blend the product in, ensuring that you cover the area between the tear duct and the nose, which is often where unwanted discolouration starts. We even like to dab a little around our nose and lips to hide any other little “flaws”.

Those dreaded circles, that a lot of us gals have and hate, can be caused by a variety of factors including stress, fatigue, iron deficiency, heredity, metabolism and allergies. Garnier’s easy to use applicator pen featuring a cooling roller-ball and a formula containing caffeine and lemon essence, energizes and helps to stimulate microcirculation while illuminating the eyes and giving the impression of a great beauty sleep.

This slim 2-in-1 is perfect for those mornings after a late night when eyes look dark and skin seems a little dull. With its sheer tint, Garnier’s Nutritioniste Skin Renew Anti-Dark Circle Eye Roller is suitable for most skin tones and delivers flawless results.
