Halloween Fun with Bree

This morning Bree and her friends Danielle and Amy left for school dressed as cave women. Tomorrow is a holiday here in Nevada so their high school is celebrating Halloween today.

The girls smudged a little MAC Dark Edge eye shadow on their bodies (dirt!), threw on their costumes and boots and were out the door. So easy!

What are you going to be for Halloween? Let me know in the comments— I just might have a Halloween surprise for you!

Lancôme Ôscillation Powerfoundation Micro-Vibrating Polishing Mineral Make-Up

You better sit down for this: mineral foundation has gone uber-high-tech!

This brand new offering from Lancôme promises to take the stress and mess out of minerals – rather than buffing loose minerals into your skin, its micro-massagers apply the foundation with 7,000 micro-vibrations per minute for seamless blendability with a lot less elbow grease.

Lancôme Ôscillation Powerfoundation Micro-Vibrating Polishing Mineral Make-Up ($48) is talc-free, oil-free and fragrance-free and is available in 12 shades.

I haven’t tried this vibrating foundation yet but I’m dying to see if it really creates “pixel-perfect” skin. If you’ve taken the new Lancôme Ôscillation Powerfoundation Micro-Vibrating Polishing Mineral Make-Up for a test drive—let me know how you like it!
