IT Cosmetics Face Disc Bronzer, Blush and Luminizer.

I am all about keeping it simple when it comes to makeup. When I saw this Face Disc that has a bronzer, blush and luminizer all in one, I knew I needed it. So yeah, I took it from my Mom!

The Face Disc is named Live,Love,Laugh Anti-Aging Vitality Face Disc   (I swear my Mom always has it on in the background) The name is a bit of mumbo-jumbo, and at my age I really don't care about the anti-aging ingredients. I care about a product that simplifies my too busy life and looks pretty on me. That, it does. These colors look beautiful on me!

Just look at how pretty it is. Never mind the fact that it is a HUGE palette of color.

I like that when I where these shades, they don't come off. Even if I go to the gym or go out for a run (which I try to do without makeup, but sometimes I don't have time to take off my makeup and reapply - that's a another story for another time) my face still looks bronzed. These powdered are waterproof and sweat-proof.

I use a bronzer brush to sweep the matte bronzer in the places the sun naturally hits my face - my nose, across my forehead my chin and up high on my cheekbones. Then I use a fluffier brush to apply the highlighter color where I want to glow. You know, the areas that I want to stand out.  I apply this to the planes of my cheekbones, up higher then the bronzer, but then sort of blend it into that. To apply the blush, I use my regular blush brush and gently swirl it on the apples of my cheeks. The look is me, only better and bronzed.

I hope you like my pictures.  I took a photography class last year and I hate boring pictures, so you'll probably notice my pictures will be taken in different places. Since I love the pretty pink and yellow flowers my Mom planted on the deck, I thought I'd use that as the background.

Live,Love,Laugh Anti-Aging Vitality Face Disc is from a brand called IT Cosmetics that regularly has shows on QVC. It is on sale for $38.00, but you have to think of it as 3 products in one.

Hard Candy Glamazon Glow All The Way Face & Body Luminizer.

 

Last week, we played a bit of catch up since it has been like forever since I wrote her for my Mom. I promised her this write up because, oh my gosh, this is my summer find and savior for my skin.

I am blessed with olive skin and my Mom makes me put on sunscreen after my shower everyday. It is now a habit, but I still tan. Not on purpose.  I do spend a lot of time at the beach and pool hanging with friends and my skin gets a pretty golden tan color. Even when re-applying sunscreen. Knowing this, I make it a point to wear either a chic sun hat or when I am being a bit more casual, I just throw my hair in a pony and put on a baseball hat to protect my face. Sunglasses are a must too.

So, to get my face to glow in a pretty golden color, I wanted a self tanner and instant bronzer to give me the perfect color without getting all fussy and applying a ton of makeup before the beach.  I searched my Mom's stash (I am a very LUCKY girl) I saw this pretty golden tube from Hard Candy.

It is called Hard Candy Glamazon Glow All The Way Face & Body Luminizer. Yes, it is designed for body too, but I have only been using it on my face - and OMG, I am in LOVE and on my second tube!!! I keep one in my beach bag because it is just that essential.

This luminizer gives my skin the perfect golden glow when I put it on - shimmer and all.  It looks really pretty and I always get lots of compliments.  After when I wash it off, my face is a beautiful bronzed color that I trick everyone into thinking I got from being outside all day! Coupled with these Glow Pads that I am hooked on, my golden glow is stunning - without the sun.

Hard Candy Glamazon Glow All The Way Face & Body Luminizer is for sale at Walmart for $8.00 - a very cool price for a very cool product.
