Remember that True Cosmetics event at The Spa at The Ritz-Carlton we told you about earlier this week? Well, it was awe-some. (For us, definitely.) We walked away with a tummy full of tea, a face of fresh makeup and a passion for some new products. Rich Campbell, the national educator for True Cosmetics, made us over with the company’s antioxidant-rich mineral foundation and a variety of colored powder shadows and blushes. We loved how soft and smooth our skin looked and the makeup’s barely-there feel. It’s no wonder True is the only makeup line in the Ritz spa here in Dallas. Our fav products? Jump for them.
Protective Mineral Foundation, $50
It gave our face a soft, romantic look without the chalky finish. And the lightweight feel made us forget we were even wearing makeup.
Rich told us the stuff would keep our shadow in place so well, we’d have to work to get it off our lids. We tested the claim at a hot, sticky concert last night. Sure enough, at closing time, the shadow was still hanging on.
Transforming Mineral Mist, $17
This could become a serious addiction. The fine spray set our makeup, giving us a natural glow and all-day hold. Plus, the reinvigorating smell soothed our stresses away. For a brief moment, anyway.
Sheer Lip Shine, $16
Our chapped lips have never been so happy in a coat of gloss. The peppermint scent is soothing, and the conditioners kept our lips feeling moisturized all day. The Spa at The Ritz-Carlton at 2121 McKinney Ave. or www.truecosmetics.com
