Bobbi Brown Blushed Pink Collection.

With Bobbi Brown’s light touch, Spring beauty is taking a decidedly romantic turn. Sparkling eyes are paired with creamy blushed pink cheeks and lips for a look that’s soft, refined and absolutely effortless. Meet Blushed Pink - the latest from Bobbi.

Included in the collection:

Sparkle Eye Shadow - $24
New Sparkle Eye Shadow is a featherweight formula that instantly lights up eyes with a unique combination of shimmering pearls and glitter in a translucent base. Creamy-soft powder shadow glides on smoothly and clings to lids for crease-free, long-lasting wear. Shadow pans can be popped out of their compacts and inserted into her customizable palettes.

• Ballet
• Silver Moon
• Mica
• Sunlight

Eye Shadow - $20
This spring, Bobbi is using shades of brown—new Mink and Birch—to give eyes soft definition. Silky-matte formula glides on smoothly and blends easily. Shadow pans can be popped out of their compacts and inserted into the customizable palettes as well.

• Mink
• Birch

Lip Compacts - $20
Blushed pink lips are the perfect complement to the season’s soft, sparkly eye. Bobbi has created
three gorgeous options, each with a different finish: high shine, glittery and creamy. Lip pans can be
popped out of their compacts and inserted into Bobbi's customizable palettes.

• Nude Pink Lip Gloss
• Baby Glitter Lip Gloss
• Blush Pink Creamy Lip Color

Obviously, to get the most out of this collection, you should really invest in Bobbi's 6 Pan Palette. Empty, it is just $10 and it will slim down everything in your makeup bag.

Blushed Pink is available on counter right now, as well as online of course. I cannot wait to try the new Sparkle Eye Shadows. You can never go wrong with Bobbi's shadows!

CoverGirl's Response to Simply Ageless Opening Issues.

CoverGirl has been listening to those of us who have had problems opening the Simply Ageless Foundation.

First, here is a link to the updated Web site with information on opening the compact and where to call for additional information/assistance.

The reason Simply Ageless is capped so tight is because it contains a high-tech emulsion of CoverGirl foundation and Olay Skin Care ingredients, so it’s important that the package be tightly sealed to preserve the quality of the product. Our goal is to ensure that the consumer gets the freshest, highest quality product from the moment she opens the package. With that said, after opening and using Simply Ageless, you can close the jar as you normally would any jar and the product’s performance and quality will not be affected.

If you continue to have opening issues, CoverGirl’s Customer Service Center can assist you , or if you are not happy with the product for any reason, you can return it for a full refund. Please call 1-800-COVERGIRL for assistance, or see www.covergirl.com.

I am thrilled that they are giving us an answer. I was almost positive that I heard an air tight seal pop when I opened one of the compacts, and I can understand why now. If there is a way to make it better while preserving the quality of the product, I am sure they will do that in the future.

Thank you, CoverGirl.

Pick of the Day - CHANEL Poudre Cristalline.

This is a must have powder to finish your makeup and set in your flawless look. This was recently demonstrated on the red carpet at The Golden Globes, where many of the A-List actresses where finished off with this CHANEL Poudre Cristalline.

A patented complex creates a weightless 'veil' effect, while setting makeup imperceptibly and controlling shine, without a hint of chalkiness. This powder can be used with the super soft velour puff or whisped on with a large powder brush.

Makeup artist Kate Lee used POUDRE CRISTALLINE on Anne Hathaway as a perfect finishing touch to take away any shine from the forehead, nose and chin.

Penelope Cruz’s classic look had a bright, soft finish, an effect makeup artist Jeanine Lobell achieved by setting her foundation with POUDRE CRISTALLINE.

Makeup artist Rachel Goodwin created January Jones’s glamorous 1940’s inspired makeup. She used POUDRE CRISTALLINE over her foundation to give January’s skin a soft matte texture.

If it can get a Hollywood beauty through one of the most grueling award ceremonies, red carpet and after parties, it is sure to work on us everyday women. I know that I definitely want a flawless look too!
