Argan Oil Is Always a Good Idea

Josie-Maran-Creamy-Cheek-Tint

I am a full-fledged beauty oil devotee and I will speak at length about how it has changed my skin for the better. But, even I wasn’t sure how oil would fly as a blush. I mean, doesn’t that just seem like a slippery disaster in the making? As it turns out, no. It’s a pretty fab reality. Josie Maran is creating makeup with Argan Oil in more nontraditional ways and the Creamy Lip and Cheek Oil is a prime example.  Stays in place and gives a dewy pinch of color. It starts as a cream then melts into a sheer oil when it warms to your skin. There’s Argan Oil (obvs) but also butters from sunflowers and tangerines so the smell is citrusy and uplifting. To minimize the dew a smidge you can also use a brush to stipple on.  But I recommend going full dew. Limitless Pink is a soft and feminine hue that makes me feel precious but Boundless Berry and Always Cherry bring out my sassy side. Speaking of which, someone told me that I share similar face characteristics to Eva Green and now I’m all BRING EM OUT. Right? What a compliment.  I’m totally channeling this persona. Always Cherry it is! Besides the loveliness it imparts on my cheeks it is also a divine soak of moisture on the lips. A major feat since so many lip and cheek products never quite deliver on both fronts.

    I read this post and immediately went to Sephora to purchase during my lunch break! The makeup artist helped me choose a color and I walked out with Timeless Coral. Already obsessed. Subtle, but it’s crazy how a little bit of color can make such a difference. It even makes my green eyes pop! Great find, Laurie!

    This seems like it would be great for more mature skin or during that winter (not that I consider my skin mature or have a winter to speak of). But despite my “oilier” skin, I do love a good oil, so i’ll definitely be swatching these next time I’m in a Sephora! 🙂
