Josie Maran Natural Wonder

DANG that Josie Maran! Whoever handles the packaging of this eco-friendly line deserves a Prius, a wheatgrass shot and a pat on the back.

A quick glance today at the Monarch flutterbyes on her new Natural Wonder Powder Palette ($35) was all it took to put a spring in my stride.

Talk about practical, environmentally witting blueprint (also friendly and feminine) that *hella* works!

Information technology gets even ameliorate when you open the palette. 🙂 BOOM! It holds v eyeshadows, two blushes and a bronzer in a mix of neutrals and brights. I've seen a few leap makeup releases then far, and this 1'south been ane of the virtually heady to me so far.

The eyeshadows, blushes and bronzer in the Natural Wonder palette are infused with Argan oil, an antioxidant-rich oil from Morocco known to calm and soothe troubled skin. And, like all Josie Maran makeup, the palette'south free of parabens, sulfates, synthetic fragrances and phthalates.

Beginning, there'south the variety. The shades feel fresh and youthful, and I tin can easily see myself doing looks with them from subtle/sweet to bold/bright.

Then, there'due south the shadows, virtually which I noted a few things (DROOL!)…

• Brights: I LOVE the brights in this palette! Both Hope (the blueish purple) and Desire (the greenish teal) are downright irised — similar alive, with colors that are multi-dimensional without looking too frosty or shimmery. I think it makes them pretty easy to vesture (even for daytime looks to work). SIDE Annotation: Over the by week several friends — normally die-hard neutral makeup girls — have confessed a desire to experiment with colorful eyeshadows. PERFECT! I think this puppy correct here would exist a great place to start.
• Texture: Hope, Desire and Think (the shimmery statuary) feel rose petal smooth to the affect and apply similar velvet. Daydream (the shimmery pink) and Trance (the shimmery gold) are possibly a picayune on the gritty side … but they're still quite wear.
• Pigmentation: A mix of semi-transparent shades and pigment-rich colors. Hope, Desire and Retrieve eolith intense color, while Fantasize and Trance are delightfully sheer.

As for the blushes, yeah, Illusion (the matte rosey cherry-red) and Fiction (a matte peachy pinkish) await bright in the pan, merely Do NOT Be AFRAID! 🙂 They await natural on cheeks. For a soft affluent, try applying either shade with your trusty skunk brush and a light (careful) hand.

If yous accept lite-to-medium peel, Natural Wonder might even exist worth it for the bronzing powder alone. I run across the glow from Beach #i — the sheer, shimmery golden bronze — really flattering lighter pare, and if you're tan like me or even darker, no problemo. It makes a great highlighter, likewise.

For $35, with all this flexibility and the overall quality of the products you get, Natural Wonders is a flat-out expert deal. Through Feb. 1, orders for it through JosieMaranCosmetics.com also straight fifty% of the proceeds to the American Cherry-red Cross for Republic of haiti — a very thoughtful and cool thing to do.
