Review: Dove Energy Glow Brightening Facial Moisturizer with SPF 15

What They Say: "NEW Dove® Energy Glow™ Brightening Moisturizer for normal to dry skin improves skin clarity by revealing more evenly-toned skin. It brightens skin, leaving it fresh, soft and youthful-looking. To help maintain that beautiful radiance over time, it protects your skin with SPF 15, vitamins and an energy-rich moisturizer."

Jen's Experience: As a moisturizer junkie, I am always thrilled to find a great product at the drugstore, especially one with a reasonable price. I was in search of a good facial moisturizer that would wouldn't irritate my sensitive skin, would work great under all my makeup, and would really deeply moisturize my often dry skin. I love how thick this moisturizer is and how well it soaks into my skin. I stay moisturized but not greasy. If you've got more normal or oily skin, I would think this product would just be too much. For dry and sensitive skin, though, this product is top notch. Who says you have to pay a fortune for a good quality moisturizer?

Retail Price: $8.99 (Drugstore.com and drugstores everywhere)

NY Fashion Week: "Fresh Out of the Water" at Herve Leger by Max Azria

The inspiration for the look at Herve Leger by Max Azria was the girls from the Bond movies. The make-up artist wanted to highlight beautiful skin with honed bones. The focus of the look? A wet eye, which they achieved with MAC gold Pigment. The eye was outlined with MAC Technakohl Eyeliner in Photogravure to give it an additional punch along with a nice coat of MAC Plushlash. To give additional focus to the eyes, the artist used a "chalky" lip. Beyond a simple nude, it was a pale, pale matte pink that had the effect of erasing the lips from the model's face.

The result was a simple, sophisticated look that is pretty and wearable for those with warmer skin tones. If you've got blue undertones, you can still achieve the look, but I would recommend a little more color on the lips to avoid looking frostbitten.
