Has anybody else tried Too Faced Aqua Bunny Bronzer ($28)? It’s a cream-to-powder bronzer that’s supposed to be water resistant.
I gotta say, you guys have GOOD eyes. A few of you noticed the gloss I was wearing in this pic below from last week’s NARS Cactus Flower blush review and immediately demanded the 411!
It’s my new favorite gloss, Benefit Ultra Shines in Spiked Punch, one of five glosses in the new Ultra Shines Lip Shines line ($18 each) which launches next month.
The Ultra Shines pack a high shine finish, lots of pigment and moisture, and they’re long-lasting to boot. In a nutshell, they’re awesome. I’ll do a more detailed review with lip swatches in just a few, but for now here are a few quick pics for ya.
