Beauty As Art









At the fashion shows, makeup artists experimented with live-wire colors in shocking combos like orange and purple, Kelly green and red, and spots of bright blue just about everywhere (even on the lips!). The trick to wearing lots of vibrant colors at once is to make sure the undertones match. And, try using the color in an unexpected place—a flash on your lashes (ahem, Longo's brilliant new mascaras), or, Make Up For Ever's Flash Color in Pale Blue 20 as eye liner.



Make Up For Ever Flash Color $17


A must-have for any professional makeup artist, these thick creamy colors flawlessly cover the skin and can be easily shaded together to obtain a wide variety of effects, depending on the quantity applied. Use to create special effects with color like decorative designs on the face or body. They can also be used for face painting on children.





Too Faced Peep Show $25


Layer lids with this set of three Too Faced best-selling eyeshadows infused with crushed pearl and silk for easy blendability and intense color.

Shades Include: Steel Magnolias (lime sparkle & pink foil), I Know What Boys Want (soft raisin & strawberry milkshake pink), and Fantasy Island (peacock blue & glided lime).



Bare Escentuals Destination Ensenada $42


A five piece collection inspired by Bare Escentuals Customer Cruise to Ensenada, Mexico.


If your definition of "vacation" is an extended party far away from home, look no further than our Destination Ensenada Five-Piece Collection. These 100% pure bareMinerals glimmers and glimpses unite magnificently in a quad of four vibrant colors.


Known for tapping into our customers' creativity for new shade names, we held a raffle during the cruise for one lucky customer to name our new glimpse. As luck would have it, Teddi won and our blue-lagoon glimpse was officially named "Cruisin' Teddi". Adding zest to this collection, Cerveza and Salsa Glimmers bring a touch of brilliance to the eyes with soft translucence, while Lime Glimpse and Cruisin' Teddi are sheer and glide on like soft whispers of shimmery color.



Dior Addict High Shine Lipstick $25



Introducing Dior Addict High Shine, the first lipstick developed for fashion show performance, featuring extra long wear, extreme show-stopping shine, and light-drenched color. Revolutionary lip-fix powders and micro-polymers cling to lips to prevent smudging. Light reflection is so powerful that wrinkles are minimized and lips look youthfully smooth.

These Sephora-exclusive lipsticks are available in a range of addictive shades housed in sleek iridescent tubes. Wear them alone or with Dior Glossy Lipliner Pencils. Fragrance-free.





Pop Beauty Lid Neon $22


Pop Beauty Lid Neon is the perfect way to revitalize your eye makeup. By using intense color pigments teamed with a triple-milled super-silky formula, you can achieve a POP of fresh color with a velvet-matte finish. Also, all shades work like magic when mixed with POP's Sparkle Sauce to create a bright eyeliner that stays put.


The kit contains six super bright neon eye shades in Pretty Pink, Ripe Orange, Juicy Yellow, Bright Blue, Pastel Turquoise, and Apple Green and a duo applicator to make your eyes POP! Instructions and application tips and tricks are printed on the inside lid to make it easy to use.




Vincent Longo Vibrant Eye Waterproof Mascara $24


Vincent Longo Vibrant Eye Waterproof Mascara is a perfect-build, no-clump, waterproof formula that comes in a range of electric colors that really stand out. A new see-through packaging reveals the vivid color at a glance.










Push the limits of reality with spring's newest mascaras. Guerlain Le 2 uses two different brushes—a big one for length and volume; a tiny one that's tilted seven degrees for super precision—to achieve unbelievable lashes. Smashbox Bionic Mascara is ionically charged, binding to and volumizing lashes with magnetic force (really!). LORAC introduces an innovative four-sided brush for a multitasking mascara that literally does it all, and CARGO's blu_ray™ Mascara was created to look perfect on High Definition TV—making you ready for your close-up, in HD, that is.




CARGO blu_ray™ Mascara $20



Created to provide flawless results while looking completely natural during high-definition filming, this lengthening mascara has a specialized comb that separates lashes for a look that is defined and never clumpy.


The blu_ray™ Mascara features an ultra black base that envelops the lashes with a deep lustrous shine. A creamy yet quick-drying nourishing formulation builds easily between applications so added volume can be built where desired. It lengthens, curls, volumizes, and separates!




LORAC Visual Effects $19.50


LORAC's Visual Effects Mascara delivers an award-winning performance every time! Its innovative four-sided, contoured brush works in conjunction with a unique formula that combines science and nature to give lashes an instant boost.


The four-sided comb brush custom applicator gives you the advantages of both a brush and a comb, sculpting lashes while providing perfect separation for extremely long, clean definition. Made of a flexible plastic, the bristles are designed to extend from long to short to follow your natural lash line, making it easier to corner hard to reach lashes.





Guerlain Le 2 de Guerlain Mascara $35


Breathtaking brush N.1 boosts volume, length, and curl in the blink of an eye and Mini brush N.2 goes to the limits, taking in every lash. Guerlain's innovation are two brushes with amazing characteristics so no lash is forgotten. The first brush transforms eyelashes with a single stroke while it lengthens, curves and separates. The second, miniature brush is designed for the inner and outer corners and tilted 7° to reach and grab the smaller eyelashes and make them up easily without smudges or mistakes.

The overall effect is perfect, precise, and voluptuous while also being supple and sculpted. The eye looks bigger and wider; the gaze brilliant.




Smashbox Bionic Mascara $19


Smashbox Bionic is the first ionic mascara—it will leave you with longer, stronger, and more voluminous lashes! The specially-engineered brush coats lashes with our revolutionary long-wearing, water-resistant formula for a dramatic full lash. Aloe, silk, and wheat protein strengthen and condition.







Look neo-classy in spring's boisterous spin on glamour. When it comes to shadow, gold is the new beige. It's the light, sparkly, warm-weather neutral that works day to night. We love smudging it on a little imperfectly; the refined texture of this season's luxe cream and powder shadows made even a purposely-sloppy application look gorgeous. Add a succulent coral pucker—matte or shiny, whichever you prefer—and you've got the most classic look of the season.




Sephora Brand Maniac Mat Long-Wearing Matte Lipstick Mat 07 $12


Just like our popular Maniac lipstick, this rich matte formula glides on smooth with an intense, stay-true color that lasts all day - and night. Plus the hydrating formula keeps lips hydrated and protected.




Tarte Double Dose Acerola Rush $21


With Tarte Double Dose Berry Boost & Gloss you get a dual-powered dose of beauty and treatment. The inner berry boost is a T5™ concentrated pigment that mixes with the outer high shine gloss. The result is a rich color that helps rejuvenate your lips.


The Tarte T5 Super Fruit Complex™ is a proprietary blend of the five most active superfruits: goji, acai, maracuja, acerola and pomegranate. The first blend of its kind, the T5 Super Fruit Complex™ is loaded with naturally occurring, antioxidant-rich nutrients and vitamins that have been known to deliver refining, antiaging and skin-restorative benefits with each application.




Shiseido The Makeup Hydro-Powder Eye Shadow H12 Lemon Sugar $23


Intense and lustrous, this dewy cream eyeshadow transforms into powder that creates a glaze of brilliant, shimmery color. Crease-resistant. Long-wearing. Color looks brilliant alone or in combination.




LORAC Eye Shadow Gold $17


This gentle, non-irritating formula is infused with rich botanicals to soothe and calm the skin. This versatile range of colors can be used to shade, shadow, and define - creating any look you desire.







Spring's freshest runway looks conjured up Botticelli's famous Birth of Venus painting—fresh skin, nude lips, and glowing cheeks epitomize today's modern Madonna. Score the look with some of spring's most exciting new products—Hourglass' gorgeously addictive foundation (Sephora's creative director is hooked), Stila's brilliantly strategic contouring kits (hello, cheekbones), Benefit's super-fresh Thrrrob powder, and NARS' new nude gloss which—thanks to a touch of apricot—is wearable on every skintone.




Benefit Cosmetics Thrrrob $28


Turn on the flush, turn up the rush…with Thrrrob, our new "turned on" face powder. This pulse-racing pink powder simulates the natural flush you get when your heart races.



NARS Lip Gloss Greek Holiday $24


The portable tube and sponge wand make applying these pigment-dense glosses a snap.




Hourglass Veil Fluid Makeup Oil Free SPF 15 $60


Veil Fluid Makeup provides luminous, long lasting coverage for a flawless complexion while fighting the signs of aging.


The formulation contains Matrixyl to support the body's natural ability to produce collagen and help reduce the appearance of wrinkles, as well as Skin Tightener ST to improve texture and promote younger looking skin. It is oil-free, parabens-free, fragrance-free, and has SPF 15.



Stila Face Contouring Trio $38


A set of three shading powders to sculpt your facial features.


With Stila's Face Contouring Trio, you'll have the tools to enhance your assets and soften others with just a flick of the wrist.


For a slimmed down nose, larger eyes, and sculpted cheek bones use both the light and dark matte shades with the highlighter flash.









From eggplant to violet to burgundy, purple lids are spring's most avant-garde trend. On the runways, purples were given an Impressionist flare; different tones and textures were layered for a shimmering, Water Lilly-like effect. This approach may seem dramatic, but it's actually quite wearable. The light, shiny highlighters will soften the darker purples—start out bold, and take the color down with highlighter till you reach your perfect degree of purple haze.




Too Faced Galaxy Glam Eye Shadow Super Nova $19.50


Like metallic meteors from outer space throwing sparks of light across the night sky, Galaxy Glam leaps into hyper drive to deliver star-worthy eyeshadow looks. Futuristic Italian opalescent-pigments are baked into each black domed shadow for intensity and blend together to produce a unique multi-dimensional smoky eye, light-speed ahead of any mere earthly cosmetic product. They give an innovative new twist to the classic smoky eye.

Color choices include Deep Space (black with cobalt blue), Moonbeam (black with laser light green), Shooting Star (black with galactic gold), and Supernova (black with peach and pink). Apply either wet or dry for a subtle dramatic effect.



Urban Decay Loose Pigments Yeyo $20


These powdery-fine, silky-soft shadows deliver more intense color than pressed or cream eyeshadows. Try a little for a sheer wash of color, or layer for bold, shimmering hues. With everything from bold brights to pretty neutrals, there's something for everyone!


The Loose Pigment formula is actually mineral makeup, made from pearlized powders derived from minerals. No dyes or synthetic pigments are used. The coolest advantage over other brands' loose pigments? No messy pots! The spill-proof tube uses a special internal funnel to keep pigment inside until you're ready to use it. The cap features an ergonomic flared handle and a built-in premium brush. Dip the brush into the color to apply, or tap out a little color and use your own brushes.




Stila Matte Eye Shadow Batura $18


Stila has reformulated its matte eyeshadow collection resulting in richer colors, a smoother texture, and good-for-you ingredients. In addition, Matte Eye Shadow offers a natural mineral enriched formula to help soothe the delicate skin of the eye area.

Using minerals also means that no talc is necessary and, as a result, the shades never appear chalky or dull.




Laura Mercier Liquid Eye Liner Bordeaux $22



Laura Mercier Brilliant Eye Liner is a contemporary and definitive way of lining the eye. The long-lasting formula withstands the elements for all-day wear and glides on effortlessly without caking, crumbling, or flaking. Each application releases a burst of brilliant color precisely at the lash line.








Lips stains that give a fresh, slightly rouged, just-been-kissed look are hot for spring. We love this new crop of stains because they're moisturizing (stains and chapped lips decidedly don't mix), infused with good-for-you antioxidants, and many (Stila, Too Faced and Smashbox) can actually personalize their color to a shade that looks best on you. Now that's a kiss we want.




Sephora Brand Lush Flush Wine Lip & Cheek Stain $10


Sephora Brand Wine Lip & Cheek stain mimics a flushed look on lips and cheeks, but when applied has a cooling sensation on the skin's surface. Easy to apply and long-lasting, the gel-based formula has incredible body and texture. It has a sheer but buildable consistency that you can layer to the desired intensity, and is perfectly blendable.




Too Faced Mood Swing $18.50


Our supernatural formulation starts off crystal clear and blossoms into countless shades of pink from cotton candy to deep fuchsia, depending on the wearer's emotional state. Are you in love, jealous, angry, happy, or hot and bothered? Your lips will tell the tale and allow you to express yourself like never before! Mood Swing's secret blend of essential oils and extracts improves elasticity and rejuvenates your lips while natural sunscreens insure a younger looking smile.


Apply Mood Swing when you're feeling sassy, sexy, or deliriously happy and witness your lip color blossom from clear to pale pink or fuchsia. You can also apply Mood Swing in the center of the lips, over the top of lipstick, and watch the color erupt for a perfect pout.




Stila Cherry Crush Lip & Cheek Stain $24


This revolutionary makeup stain moisturizes, provides antioxidant protection and has a unique look on each person's skin, creating the perfect shade every time. Housed in a berry red click pen adorned with a silver cherry blossom design, Cherry Crush reacts to the pH levels in the cheeks and lips creating a personalized blush and pout.


In addition to being scented and flavored like a just-picked cherry, Cherry Crush contains cherry and pomegranate extracts to provide skin and lips with antioxidant protection. Vitamins A, C & E are the cherry on top, as they provide further antioxidant protection and drench the skin in moisture, ensuring skin and lips never feel dry or tight.
