New Obsession: IT Cosmetics by Jamie Kern


Have you heard of IT Cosmetics yet?  If you haven't, you need to check it out immediately!  Until a few weeks ago I was fairly unfamiliar with the brand.  I'd seen it on the pages of Allure, Lucky and Marie Claire magazines, but hadn't had the chance to use any of the products myself.  My first test drive of IT Cosmetics was so fabulous I'll forever be a user!

My absolute, hands down, favorite thing on earth right now is IT Cosmetics Vitality Flush Anti-Aging Color Reviver Stain in Je Ne Sais Quoi. (pictured below)  It can be used on your lips for a unique-to-your skin tone lip color and on your cheeks for that same unique-to-you color!  It contains plum oil, cherry oil, shea butter, argan and jojoba plus vitamins A, C and E, green and white tea and aloe!  Super moisturizing!  You won't see the color until it's applied on your skin or lips but on my skin it turned the perfect, light pink!  I love it!



I'm also loving IT Cosmetics IT-O2 Ultra Repair Liquid Oxygen Foundation.  With Peptides, hyaluronic acid, niacin, hydrolyzed collagen and vitamins A, C and E, it's like a facial in a bottle...in a foundation!  This amazing foundation gave my skin a perfectly flawless appearance when I used only a tiny bit!  It's designed to deliver powerful oxygen to your skin, which aids in skin regeneration, repair and key ingredient absorption.  It's been clinically proven to increase skin barrier repair and clinically proven to increase skin hydration over 71% after just one application!  I applied the IT-02 Ultra Repair Liquid Oxygen Foundation with the IT Hydra Sponge for an airbrushed to perfection look!  I used a little warm water to dampen the sponge, squeezed out the excess water and the Hydra Sponge blended everything, including concealer into my skin effortlessly!

Hello Light Anti-Aging Radiance Illuminating Powder (pictured below) with Hydrolyzed Collagen, Peptides and Drops of Light Technology is another must have for your make up collection.  This illuminating powder absorbs oil and shine while blurring away the look of pores and fine lines without settling into wrinkles..thank goodness! I tend to avoid illuminators because they contain sparkle and glitter that settles into my fine lines and makes me look much older than I really am, but Hello Light doesn't have any glitter or sparkle!  Used with the Heavenly Luxe Angled Radiance Brush, application has never been so simple!



The last couple of things I should mention are Vitality Cheek Flush in Pretty in Peony and Tightline Full Lash Length Black Primer.  Both are now permanent staples in my make up routine.  Tightline Full Lash Length Black Primer can be worn alone or you can add mascara over the top for an even more dramatic effect.  I found that just using Tightline Full Lash alone was enough for day to day wear!  Vitality Cheek Flush is a powder blush stain, something totally new to the world of blush.  It not only stains cheeks for all day wear, but it's also enriched with anti-aging powerhouse ingredients!  It's waterproof (great for summer) and is talc-free so it won't cling to fine lines or wrinkles...yay again!

Check it out and you'll see!

LORAC's Breakthrough Performance Foundation

Desperately seeking flawless coverage? With LORAC Breakthrough Performance Foundation you can finally have flawless coverage while pampering your skin at the same time. LORAC‘s Breakthrough Performance oil free, anti-aging foundation with SMS complex and SPF 14 combines pre-aging, anti-aging, hydrating and smoothing ingredients along with antioxidants to help skin appear   youthful, rejuvenated and radiant.

It really does deliver in the flawless looking skin department! I first used LORAC’s Breakthrough Performance Foundation about a week ago and I cannot gush enough about it! Not only do I love the ultra-sleek bottle, I love the way my skin looks after application.

My skin looked matte and dewy at the same time, if that’s even possible! There was absolutely no drying effect on my skin and I found that even after layering cream blush on my cheeks, my coverage was still flawless. I just needed a few pumps of LORAC’s Breakthrough Performance and I was good to go.

Now, if I could just get that Oscar nom, I’d be Red Carpet ready!
