The Best Bronze For Your Buck!

In Arizona, the summer heat is still going and will through October. Some schools are back in session as of yesterday and others start on August 11th. Do you remember when school started after Labor Day?

So, if you haven't completely switched your makeup over into a Fall 2008 beauty trend and still want to wear some summery bronzes that can transition into the Fall monochromatic metallic gilded look...well, here's a few of the best bronzes for your buck!

I love a creme shadow, and since Dior no longer makes the Ombre Plum line, I find this Avon Beyond Color Radiant Lifting Eyeshadow a close second.

This is the color Tiger's Eye, and the website shows a "buy one get one for $1.99", now that's a savings.

Sephora is always a beauty bonanza and sometimes have sales, though there store brand is a good quality, and quantity for your dollar. Try the Sephora eyeshadow duo in $#10 for $16.00

Bourjois, which can be found at Ulta, Sephora, and Macy's always come out with something new, fresh and funky like the Shimmering Shine Liquid Eyeshadow in Molecule d'Or for $16.00.

This product can work as an eyeshadow, liner, rubbed into foundation for spot highlighting, it's very versatile for the adventurous makeup user.

I love Dior cosmetics for their rich pigments, tones and amazing texture to their shadows which always wear incredibly!



This eyshadow single is called Million Dollar Gold #645 and is $24.50, gorgeous, and a splurge!

Even if you are shopping at Walmart or Target, L'Oreal, Neutrogena, Rimmel and N.Y.C. still have great selection of metallics that can finish out your summer beauty and lead you into a Fall trend look without leaving your finances depleted.

Remember to wear them sparingly: such as; if you are bronzing the eye with a dramatic liner and lots of mascara...leave your lips in a sheer shine. If the eyes are a light golden shade with soft brows then wear a power lip color in a moisturizing lipstick that has shine or a gloss. Think pink and bright tones to play up the mouth.

Enjoy the best of the bronzes, see you at a workshop and stay tuned for details on upcoming promotions and giveways!
