The Power of Pink : Smashbox

Next up on our pink campaign list is Smashbox, a brand that is one of personally favorites.

Contributing to Breast Cancer Awareness Month doesn’t get much easier than this! Simply pick up this Limitless Long Wear Lip Gloss ($21) in a limited-edition package, and all proceeds starting today through October will go toward the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. The silky-smooth lip color stays put for up to 6 hours and protects your pout with SPF 15.

I love it when beauty brands go that extra step for a good cause. Throughout October, Enter code THINKPINK at checkout to receive a free Think Pink Beauty Kit with any $75 or more order.

Smashbox Heartbreaker Lip Shine Is A Taker For Valentine's Day

For a romantic Valentine's Day, cosmetic brand Smashbox launched its Spring Collection 2010 entitled Heartbreaker. All products from this lovely collection features a kiss logo on the packaging and milky soft colors, which remind us once again that love is in the air. I checked out the Baked Fusion Soft Light ($30) and the Eye Shadow Palette ($34), but they failed to impress me. Instead, I felt in love with the Lip Shine ($19) in shade Melon-Drama.

More about the product : You’ll have him at “hello” when you drench lips in one of these kissably-smooth, ultra-high-shine glosses in playfully bold, juicy hues.

Melon-Drama is a gorgeous and glossy coral shade with an orange undertone. The applicator is very easy to use and is sanitary. The lipgoss has good pigmentation but is not overwhelming. It looks very natural on my lips. It also smooths my lips and does not settle into lines. It gives an even finish and is not very sticky. Overall, this is a high quality lipgloss that every lady must have for a kissable Valentine's Day.
