From time to time, my beautiful makeup loving friend whom I will call Supermodel, will guest write some reviews. She so kindly reviewed some products from one of my very favorite brands, Philosophy. Take it away, Supermodel…
Philosophy: The Supernatural Airbrushed Canvas…beige
If you love a product that gives you an elegant finish while being foolproof, Philosophy’s The Supernatural Airbrushed Canvas is for you. This silky all-in-one foundation brings out that super-smooth complexion we all want, in a one step process. The sponge-like applicator offers extreme ease of use and I loved the fact that I was offering my face SPF as well ! The coverage was complete while still offering a sheer luminousness lacking in other products I have sampled. I am hooked, and will be incorporating this glorious product into my a.m. ritual!
While we are talking about
Philosophy, I also sampled the mineral blush duo in
Berry/Chestnut , again from the
Supernatural line. I am a girl who used to love to tan, and still seek out that sunkissed glow. I appreciate how thoughtful Philosophy was when creating this duo compact of colors! If you want that blushing fresh youthful glow, the Berry side if perfect for you! On the other hand, if you are looking for a deeper, more sophisticated bronze that says you just returned from Grand Cayman, Chestnut is the one! Or do as I did, and use a bit of each for your own radiance. In true
Philosophy form, this product goes on smoothly and is sure to avoid catching in pores or lines.
Last, but surely not least for me, I sampled the Berry lip pencil, again from the Supernatural line . Being raised by a mother who told me I looked naked without my lips, this one left me feeling fully dressed! Once again, this product was easy to apply and gave my lips a creamy, moist outline that complemented several different lipstick shades. I didn’t have to touch up often throughout the day, which I loved and this pencil will now be a welcome companion!

Brand: Sephora
Name: Lush Flush Wine Lip & Cheek Stain
Size: n/a
Price: $12 CAD
A unique tint for lips and cheeks from Sephora that’s formulated with red wine extract. This lovely stain “mimics” a flushed look on lips and cheeks, but when applied has a cooling sensation on the skin’s surface. Easy to apply and long-lasting, the gel-based formula has incredible body and texture. It has a sheer but buildable consistency that you can layer to the desired intensity, and is perfectly blendable.
With the warmer weather coming up, a lot of brands are coming out with stains and multi-use products to combat both the heat and also our “vacation” mode during the summer.
This product only comes in one colour, so it’d definitely something that each person needs to test on their own. It seems a little dark to me, but I’m not going to pass judgement until I’ve seen it in person and have had a chance to try it out!

Because of the rave reviews of this mascara, specifically by Slvrlips (Nikkia) and Seymone, I picked up Maybelline’s Define-A-Lash Volume mascara during one of the many BOGO’s at CVS.
Being a mascara fiend and trying just about everything, I eventually settled on Dior Show, then the less expensive Loreal Voluminous mascara. Nothing could wow me at this point. I was right.
This is a nice mascara, but having being part of the Lash Exact craze that went down last year, this is a close little cousin. The brush didn’t wow me at all either. The dip in the center made the brush a bit wonkier to handle. It lengthened and defined my lashes nicely and naturally, but the volume wasn’t the volume that I knew a mascara could deliver. Whenever I’m wearing Loreal Voluminous, I usually get asked if my lashes are falsies or not.
All in all, underwhelming. I guess I got a cute tube of pink mascara to add to the collection?
