Benefit Cosmestics

Wipe the slate clean and buy some new makeup to play with while snowed in this month! One of my favorite makeup brands is having their Benefit Sale-Abration and here's one item I got over the holidays that I cannot live without:

Black Orchid Cheek Highlighter, on sale for $9 (originally $18). Light, easy to use highlighting creams for cheek bones, brow bones, and upper eyes. These pearled alabaster and cameo cream shades bring instant attention wherever they are applied and look great on everyone. And I just adore the dark, mysterious packaging.

Ever wonder how celebrities all get that healthy, radiant glow? Most likely, it's because their makeup artist is using a face illuminator, like Benefit's High Beam and Moon Beam complexion highlighters. These products can be used as spot enhancers or blended all over your face for a glowing, sexy look. High Beam is a satiny pink shine, while women with olive or tan skin tones should opt for Moon Beam, which gives skin a more natural, golden-pink glow. Both cost $22 and are available here and here.

I don't know about you, but I have about a million tubes of lip gloss. At least one in every handbag I own, four or five in my makeup bag, one at my desk, two in the car, you get the idea. They are all pretty much the same color and I never seem to actually empty any of them, so why do I feel the need to buy a new one every week? In fact, this week I actually bought not one, but TWO!

Here are the two I bought this week:

Her Glossiness Lip Gloss in "Who are you Wearing" from Benefit Cosmetics, $16

Neutrogena MoistureShine Lip Soother in "Gleam", $6.49
