FACE atelier Lets You Release Your Inner Beauty Maven

FACE atelier is a cosmetic company that strives to uphold the idea that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Instead of illustrating how women should look, they emphasize the importance of women finding their own cosmetic perfection. A quick visit to their website will not yield the typical photos of models demonstrating the makeup, but features the products themselves, allowing women to find the perfect shade for themselves.

I tried out three lip products by FACE atelier and want to share my findings with all of you.

I always have a slew of lip-glosses in my bag at any given moment and love when I can grab a gloss and get great coverage in one quick swipe. FACE atelier’s Lip Glaze is a smooth gloss that goes on so easily and stays put without being too sticky or messy. The color, ‘Flamingo’, was a bit too frosty for my taste, but there are many color choices to suit everyone’s tastes.

Lipsticks add a level of sophistication that lip glosses can’t quite achieve, and FACE atelier’s collection gives great coverage and come in a variety of colors and finishes, from plum to pink, matte to frost. I sampled ‘Candy Floss’ and found the light, frosted pink color washed out my pale complexion.

FACE atelier also makes ‘Lip Putty,’ a great product that can be used under your lipstick to smooth out fine lines that can become exaggerated by lip color. In addition, ‘Lip Putty’ is packed with vitamins and essential oils to add moisture and hydration to your lips, making this dual action product a wise investment. My lips felt smoother and softer and I’ll never apply lipstick without it again!

Each tube is $20.00 and is available on their website, www.faceatelier.com.

Beauty Solutions: Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Set

Elizabeth Arden is a brand most of us know and come to love. Back in the early 1930’s this brand brought to our grandmothers the revolutionary Eight Hour Cream. Back in the day it was considered a miracle and though many things have changed since then, this cream still works.

This cream is well known for its healing and protecting benefits so the brand had the amazing idea of making a three-piece set with the best products of the Eight Hour line, the Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Set ($51 value). In this set you’ll find a tube of Eight Hour Cream Intensive Moisturizing Hand Treatment, an Eight Hour Cream Lip Protectant Stick with SPF 15 and the traditional Eight Hour Cream Skin Protectant. This set comes in the lovely Elizabeth Arden deluxe red gift box and you’ll get to save $4.50 by buying these products together.


Skin often gets dry from temperature differences experienced during the summer but also due to the sun; therefore, moisturizing is very important. If you’re all about products that have been tested and proved to work wonders, then this set is definitely for you.
