I had the opportunity to test drive Mineral Fusion's Fresh Face Starter Kit, which is available for $20 ($120 value), so I thought it was a perfect chance to venture into the mineral makeup world (since I'm so not knowledgeable in that area!).
The kit includes:
We are so lucky that reader Jessica swatched photos from the upcoming Antiquitease collection, which launches this Thursday, the 18th! Check out all of the photos and swatches goodness!
Well, I tried! If I were to attempt it again, I would start off by actually looking at the face chart rather than going by a day-old memory. This type of makeup is not my forte, but it was fun to try. I spent about 10-15 minutes doing this one - I'm sure more time (and a steadier hand!) would make...
When did you first start loving makeup? How long has your love affair lasted? Did you start off as a little girl playing with your mother's makeup or has it only been a recent discovery?
I've only been into makeup since I was 18, which makes it a whopping three years thus far!
P.S. - What's everyone...
Who doesn't love it when they can buy and donate to charity at the same time? LUSH launches Charity Pot throughout stores on October 15th (just a few days away!). 100% of proceeds will go directly to charity (except taxes, duh) to support several causes, like animal rights, environmental protection,...

I was skeptical about a cleanser with jojoba beads really working as a makeup remover, but it's actually quite efficient in doing...
Make Up Forever as created their "Diamonds For Ever Kit" ($115 value), which features hues that have been diamond-infused - so think sparkles and shimmer! You will find their beset-selling Aqua Eyes and Diamond eyeshadow, diamond powder in Champagne, waterproof lengthening mascara in black, and...
LORAC brings a whole slew of nifty gift sets for this holiday season. Their big kahuna is "Fairytale Life" ($195 value), which is a Sephora exclusive and features eight eyeshadows in Star (Warm Beige Shimmer), Princess (Frosty Taupe), Rich (Light Khaki Shimmer), Jade (Green Shimmer), Glitz (Pink...
Overall, I found Alexander McQueen to offer some lovely colors that don't quite exist in the permanent consumer line, but with the eyeshadows and paint pots nearly identical to each other, this might be one collection that you'll be able to pass a little more easily. All the colors were rich, and...
Too Faced delights the holiday season with their "Lights, Camera, Glamour!" box filled with eight eyeshadows, six lip glosses, two blush powders, a bronzer, a face powder, a shimmer powder, a brow powder, and an eye liner powder ($40.00). Be sure to browse their Quickie Chronicles - The Miss Sixty...
