Skincare: Sephora Collection Face Masks And They Really Work

On my bucket list this summer it’s all about me taking care of my skin. Pampering it with the most luxurious items and treating it with and to exotic ingredients. With so many items out there how do you choose. Not every skincare product has to cost $125.00, here is an item that’s only $5.00 at Sephora that will help you to protect the face before you beat the face.Sephora Collection offer a line of natural fiber face masks that are infused with active ingredients that will provide deep nourishment to the skin. They have one for every skin type. I’ve listed each one of the face mask to help get you on your way. 
Sit back, relax while sipping on a glass of wine and enjoy your face mask. 15 minutes later your skin will look brighter, feel smooth and refresh, 

 
Rose Mask: Provides deep moisture and brightening properties through natural rose extract. 

Lingzhi Mask: Creates the appearance of smoother, plumper, and younger-looking skin. 

Lotus Mask: Refreshes tired skin and reduces signs of strain and fatigue. 


Honey Mask: Nourishes and balances to soothe and refresh dry or sensitive skin. 


Pearl Mask: Perfects and brightens with natural-origin pearl to create high luminosity. 


Ginseng Mask: Tones and energizes while providing a tightening effect for a plumped and supple complexion. 


Green Tea Mask: Mattifies and purifies to soothe skin, absorb sebum, and reduce the appearance of outbreaks. 


Pomegranate Mask: Awakens, energizes, and protects the skin with antioxidant-rich natural pomegranate extract.

Make Up For Ever Artist Plexi Glass Collection

When I look at Make Up For Ever Artist Plexi Glass collection ad campaign it validates why I fell in love with makeup artistry. To me their campaign reminds me of a modern version of pop art makeup from the art movement in the late 1950’s when fine art and popular culture emerged. Dany Sanz of Makeup Up For Ever actual inspiration was from her favorite object, a piexl glass makeup case. She developed a new technology of pigments that is amplified with a high vinyl finish that mimics the case’s unique look and feel.
I was elated when Natasha from Make Up For Ever graced me with one of the Artist Palette Volume 2 and the Artist Plexi Gloss in Fuchsia. It’s always nice when a makeup brand give an artists a treat from their makeup collection.
