Stila Convertible Color in Gerbera
What They Say: "As seen in In Style's Best Beauty Buys 2005! Brighten cheeks and lips with creamy, translucent color. This two-in-one compact holds the key to easy, monochromatic makeup. Tap onto cheeks or press onto lips for a fresh, pretty flush of color. Mini-mirrored compacts make touch ups on the go a snap."
Jen's Experience: I've been hearing how great this product is all over the place. Most recently, it was used on the cover of InStyle with Uma Thurman. (Doesn't she look great? She's one of my beauty idols.) I chose the exact same color that was used for her, and really couldn't be more pleased. It's really easy to apply -- all you need to remember is not to use too much at once, as the pigments are really concentrated. Blending is a snap; I barely have to do it at all. The first several times that I wore it, I thought it disappeared too quickly, but I find now that if I press it into my face and follow with powder, it is much longer lasting. This product can also be used on the lips, but it's not as amazing. Plus, it makes your $20 disappear a lot quicker. I am truly impressed with this product, and it will certainly go into rotation now with my Nars Orgasm blush.
Retail Price: $20.00 (Stila Cosmetics)
