Holiday Makeup
The makeup news this holiday season is all about sheer
shimmer in light metallics and neutrals that enhance skin
tone by brightening the face.
 For a long time, the only way to
get the new sheer illumination style makeups was to pay
big bucks for them in the department stores. Chanel,
Dior, and Shiseido are just a few of the brands who
provided formulas not available at your local drugstore.
But now Revlon has broken through the pack with their new
Skinlights line of shimmery lotions, loose powders and
creamy sticks which add illumination to the face with
formulas containing light-reflective crystal color,
complexion-friendly minerals and vitamins C and E. This
line was developed as an alternative to traditional
foundation.
Available in five shades -- Natural Light, Pink Light,
Peach Light, Golden Light and Bronze Light -- each adds a
warm glow to pale winter skin. And because the skin
formats are all sheer, they are virtually mistake-proof.
If you feel you've put on too much or applied it in the
wrong place, simply blend the product away with your
fingertips or applicator. Going price: $13.95 each.
To complement fresh, glowing skin, Revlon has developed
two collections of sheer, translucent tints for eyes,
cheeks and lips -- Colorlights and Bronzelights. The
Colorlights collection is based in hues of rose, pink and
peach for a healthy blush. Bronzelights adds a warm
golden glow any time of the year. Both collection colors
come in creamy Eye Glossing eyeshadows ($5.50), Lip
Lacquers ($9.75) and Cheek Glaze ($8.25).
Put it all together with that new sexy black party dress
you bought from last month's article (you did buy it,
right?) and you're ready to greet the new year in true
2001 style!
