Philosophy Amazing Grace Shimmering Powder ($29.50) is a soft, icy pink highlighting powder. Its packaged in a mirror-finish compact and inside is a light pink powder with the word "grace" embedded in the center. When you open the compact, there's a mirror with the phrase, "where there is grace,...
NARS Enchanted Cream Blush ($26.00) is a new shade of cream blush launched with NARS' Summer Collection. NARS describes it as a "soft peach," and I'd completely agree with that assessment.
Enchanted is a sheer, soft peach with soft golden shimmer and a slight...
Make Up For Ever Smooth Talker (13) HD Blush ($25.00) is a soft, pale petal pink. This is a very, very cool-toned pink that looks and applies quite sheerly. On my skin, it makes me look a little corpse-ish, but I can imagine it looking incredible on my fairer friends. It reminds me a bit of MAC...

Chanel Soleil Tan de Chanel ($50.00) is available in two different shades -- Terre d'or and Terre Halee -- and new for Chanel Les Pop-Up de Chanel Collection. Every Summer, Chanel releases a limited edition bronzer (or two!), and this year is no exception. It has a soft raised...
The concept behind two-minute reviews is mostly products that I photographed, swatched, but I never ended up reviewing. Rather than just bury the photos into the "Unlikely to Review" folder and...
