using NYX Illuminating Bronzer in Chaotic on my cheeks

Shimmery bronzing powders in almost blush-like shades of luscious peach as well as pink aren’t precisely uncharted territory. Chanel, for example, has been there, done that, a few times before.

But NYX weaved rather a tapestry together with their three new Illuminating deal with as well as Body Bronzers. By integrating eminently lovely shades with a pearly surface as well as a soft, comfy texture, as well as then keeping the cost well below department store, they produced something higher than the sum of its parts.

All it took was a few swipes of Narcissistic (a beige), Chaotic (a golden peach) as well as Magnetic (a peachy pink) to get me hooked on all three.

The advertising material doesn’t say, however I question if NYX co-created them with Cher, since they are, after all, designed to “turn back time.”

How so?

By bestowing a natural radiant glow to the skin that likewise diffuses incoming light, assisting skin appear softer and, or so I hope, younger.

Yeah…I can’t even begin to tell you exactly how attractive that seems now that 37 is officially less than two weeks away!

But seeing as exactly how I can’t truly stop this train I’m on, I’ve been doing my finest to sluggish it down accept the inevitable with positivity as well as panache.

Now, when people phone call me “ma’am,” I try to own that sh*t! — however that does not mean refusing a bit makeup assist along the way.

Like Fox Mulder with his aliens, I truly want to believe, LOL!

តើ​អ្នក​គិត​អ្វី? Do I look 10 years younger using Chaotic, my preferred of the three shades, up there at the top?

Okay, exactly how about 5?

The new NYX Illuminating deal with as well as Body Bronzers ($9 each)

New for summertime 2012 as well as added to the NYX long-term line.

For a bronzer, the 0.33-ounce pans are HUGE! — about the exact same size as a typical deal with powder compact.

Step right up! versatility here! I’ve used these as bronzers, blushes as well as likewise as highlighters. You can likewise apply them to bare shoulders as well as legs to add a hint of shimmer there (I utilize a big fluffy brush).

Chanel’s bronzers, which of program expense significantly more, do seem finer. Sometimes, I can see the grains in these NYX Bronzers sitting on top of my skin, although buffing with a kabuki clean definitely assists the powder settle.

If you’re going with a bout of dry, flaky skin on your face, you may want to wait up until it passes, as I’ve noticed that these will seek out as well as highlight any type of flakes on my skin.

As for wear time, I get between 4-6 hours.

Chanel may have these beat with finer grains as well as a softer consistency — the Illuminating Bronzers likewise don’t seem to last as long as Chanel’s $60 bronzer — however for a $9 product? Bravo, NYX. rather an impressive feat.

If you’re a budget plan enthusiast looking for a similar look for less, these should hit the spot.

Summer fruit!

No, I’m not speaking about Summerfruit MAC Cremestick Liner, silly (at least not this time).

After El Hub got house from work last night we visited the regional farmer’s market right here in Novato, which just started up for the season a few weeks ago.

Farmer’s markets are among my preferred things about summer. The different food stands, crafts, performers and, of course, the yummy fresh fruits as well as veggies.

(SIDE NOTE: one of these days, I’m gonna try to slip into the bounce house…)

I ordered from a Thai stand last night, however I was so ravenous that I failed to remember to snap a shot of my veggie pad thai before it was as well late, whoops!

Anywho, summertime fruit. I brought house a few apricots, a basket of cherries as well as a couple white peaches as well as nectarines.
