Benefit Cosmetics never cease to impress.  This fall, they are adding a new member to the Box O'Powder family and a brand new brow product to their brow-grooming line.

Let's talk about the new Benefit Rockateur Box O' Powder* (CA $36 / US $28).  The tag line for this product is: "for girls who don't blush easy".  This cheek powder is a beautiful rose gold colour.  You all probably know how much I like my Box O' Powders, I was actually wondering when they are releasing a new one since it has been a while.  On top of that rose gold has been my obsession for the past two years.  So this rose gold in a Box O' Powder might be the perfect combination yet.


Another new release is the Benefit Gimme Brow* (CA $26 / US $22).  Like its name suggest, it is designed to give an illusion of more brow.  I personally have pretty sparse brow and I know I am not the only one who would accidentally give a bald spot our brows.  Available in two shades (light/medium and medium/deep), this product promised that it will be "building brows where before there were none".  Plus, it is supposed to be water-resistant, long-wearing, and natural-looking.  All these sounds so magical.


Both will be available in September 2013, I am very excited to try these out (well too excited that I tried Gimme Brow before taking pictures... but I don't want to spoil, haha).  Be sure to check back later to see my two cents on these brand new products!

Now, am I the only one who's that clumsy to pluck more than I should?  Let me know if you have done that before! ;)

Until next time,

NIVEA Haus 2013
NIVEA Haus 2013 at Yonge-Dundas Square
For some reasons, I was never able to make it to the NIVEA Haus in the past two years.  But this year, NIVEA Haus is mobilized and is travelling across Canada to share skincare knowledge with Canadians, so I was able to pay a visit last week.

Benefit Cosmetics Stay Flawless 15-Hour Primer
Benefit Cosmetics Stay Flawless 15-Hour Primer
Summer is coming up and many of us have trouble keeping their makeup on in the heat.  So if something claims to be a makeup magnet, I'm there to try it!  New from Benefit Cosmetics, the Stay Flawless 15-Hour Primer (CA $38, available in July 2013) claims to act like a magnet to "instantly lock-on your foundation".  This pro-long wear primer promises to keep your makeup looking fresh even after hours.  Here's the results they observed (worn with hello flawless liquid foundation & powder):
94% said it helps foundation last longer
97% saw an improvement in the look of skin/complexion
94% said it increased foundation coverage
97% said it enhanced foundation's performance.
This all sounds so promising, I'm going to put it onto an ultimate test (i.e. test it on Rica) and see how it works out!

Until next time,

NIVEA Haus is back to Toronto, and this time it's bigger and better because it has been made mobile.  This means it'll take their skincare education on the road, and tour around major cities in Canada (Toronto, Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver, and Montreal).  NIVEA said its pop-up centre (or truck?) will feature a few different activities to engage with their visitors:
