…won’t you be my Valentine? (Sorry, Mr. Rogers).
Now, I’m not one for all flowery pink stuff – I leave that to my office-mate – she decorates for every holiday (can’t wait to see what she does for Arbor Day) and is crazy about pink. However, with my blue eyes, I can pull off some nice pinks and plums.
That’s why I was happy to come across a pink I really need to try – it’s by Josie Maran called “Valentine” (at Sephora, Barney’s New York and online – $18). How’s that for a holiday tie-in? It looks to be a nice cross between a pink and a not too dark rose color, which I think would make a great fresh base for Valentine’s Day (of course) or for the upcoming Spring – come ooooon warm weather. I would really love to apply pink to my face, cheeks and eyes and not have them be that way to due to the cold weather, ya know?
And, speaking of Love, one of the great things about Josie’s line is that she loves creating her cosmetics naturally – non-toxic ingredients – no fragrances or parabens. What’s more, the beauty extends to the packaging: each shade comes housed in Josie’s state-of-the-art biodegradable compact. And as a Valentine’s Day treat for yourself, she is sharing the love and offering 30% off her entire line of cosmetics, including the Allure Beauty Award-winning Mascara to Plumping Lip Gloss from February 12th thru the 19th.
