I hope you all are having a great start to the new year! There are some amazing new products coming out this month and I am so pumped about several innovative products I have read about recently. January is also my birthday month so I will be doing a special haul this month and share with you all of my finds, so stay tuned!
Top 14
Benefit The POREfessional Agent Zero Shine-Vanishing Pro Powder ($30)
Claim: "Benefit's invisible-finish PRO powder helps shrink the look of pores and minimize shine."
I NEED this. NOW. This product has a built-in brush for spill-proof application.
Claim: "One second to smooth, poreless skin. Get mistake- proof, poreless smooth skin with Maybelline New York Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser Primer."
Some are claiming it is a dupe for Benefit The POREfessional, others say it is a dupe for Smashbox Photo Finish Primer... either way, this product retails for 50% less than the other two brands!
Maybelline Master Hi-Light Powdered Blush/Bronzer ($9.99)
Claim: "Light diffusing Maybelline New York Face Studio Master Hi-Light Blush and Face Studio Master Hi-Light Bronzer formulas have an expert balance of color and shimmer illuminator for a natural glow."
I am intrigued by these! It's a multi-tonal illuminator/bronzer (or blush) combo.
Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade ($18)
Claim: "Waterproof brow color ideal for sculpting, defining, and carving perfectly precise brows that won't fade."
This oily girl is super pumped about the idea of a waterproof brow product. I love the idea of being able to skip using brow wax and still get the definition and staying power.
Claim: "Cover Girl's innovative clear formula gives your skin instant matte perfection. Use under, over, or instead of makeup."
There is alot of buzz that this product is a dupe for Mally Face Defender. The formula is very interesting, it not a cream nor a powder. A bronzing and luminizer shade is also available.
L'Oreal Visible Lift CC Eye Concealer ($9.99)
Claim: "The innovative cooling roller ball applicator instantly depuffs under eye bags. Color correcting pigments instantly cover dark circles and brighten the eye area. Caffeine formula corrects all signs of fatigue, including dark circles, bags, puffiness, and fine lines."
This is one of the products I am most excited about! In my skin care regimen, I have been trying to pay special attention to my under eye area, so I cannot wait to test this one out... and (depending on coverage) add this to my routine.
L'Oreal Colour Riche Extraordinary Lip Color ($9.99)
Claim: " Colour Riche Extraordinaire contains five precious micro-oils to create the perfect lip result in one luxuriously comfortable step: resurfaces and smooths lips like a balm, provides colour impact of a lipstick, and gives a varnished 3-d shine effect of a gloss."
Reading about this product, it sounds like it may be a possible dupe for Shiseido Rouge Lacquer, which would be great because I love that product!
Revlon PhotoReady Skinlights ($12.99)
Claim: "Get a healthy glow in any light. Banish dullness and even out skin with light-capturing crystals and photochromatic pigments."
I like that this product comes in several shades. The four shades include: pink light, peach light, bare light, and bronze light. This could be a great product for those who have had a hard time finding a flattering highlighter to compliment their skintone.
Jergens BB Body Perfecting Skin Cream ($11.99)
I am freaking out about this product! I feel like self-tanner looks way too fake this time of year, but I get super pasty and would love luminous glowy skin. This product comes in 2 shades: light and medium-dark.
NYX Blotting Powder (TBA)
No claims yet! This product is too new! I found out about this through the grapevine, and it is already being compared to MAC Blot Powder for half the price. Yesssss.
NYX Butter Lipsticks ($6.00)
Claim: "The unique texture seems to melt onto the lips, giving full, yet lightweight coverage with a luxurious satin finish."
I love NYX Butter Gloss so I am super stoked to try these lipsticks! A friend snatched some up in her local Ulta in North Carolina and I so jelly. They have yet to show up at my local store so I am considering ordering through the NYX site.
Claim: "Your Skin But Better CC Cream with SPF 50+ is truly a multi-tasking beauty miracle. It's your SPF 50+ UVA/UVB Physical only sunscreen that protects against the rays that both burn your skin and age your skin. It's also your Full Coverage Color Correcting Cream and Anti-Aging Serum all in one!"
Those are some pretty intense claims there! I have been loving my L'Oreal BB Cream but I did not like that there is no SPF and the coverage is sheer to light. I have been hearing some amazing testimonials about this products's full coverage/anti-aging/super SPF qualities!
Philosophy Total Matteness Pore Minimizing & Mattifying Cleanser + Mask ($25)
Claim: "The innovative formula absorbs oil and minimizes shine for a totally matte, smooth-touch finish. Glacial clay helps unclog enlarged, dark pores to reduce their appearance. The formula deeply cleanses daily and multitasks as a weekly purifying mask for enhanced results. The result is purified, refined, totally matte skin."
I feel like 2014 is the year for oily girls! I am so happy to have come across a plethora of products devoted to those of us with large pores and shiny noses :)
What new products are you most excited about in 2014? Let me know!
xoxo,
Alicia
