Best New Cosmetics of 2013

Every year we have something new in makeup. This time again the history is repeated. However, 2013 seems to be the year of bringing past to present. The story in the makeup section is similar. This has given birth to excitement as well as sadness. It is just that this time not every new release has surpassed users' expectations.

Some cosmetics simply are expansion of what was already there. Innovation this time is simply not at its peak. Then why should we be excited? The reason is below. As mentioned earlier, this 2013, some cosmetics will bring back many of our childhood memories to life. There is also a transition happening. Now more than color, the health of the skin matters. Companies are moving forward with this new notion by introducing makeup products that promise to provide our skin nourishment. Let's have a look at some of them.

Archie’s Girls Makeup Collection

Original Archie show did not last too long in the late 60’s. But the comics remained unforgettable. Now here is a makeup collection dedicated to only Archie girls Veronica and Betty. It has been released this year by Mac in limited edition, but contains everything ranging from nail polish to face powder. Their theme is winning the love of Archie. Consequently, the pink and peach colors are the highlight of this collection.

The Glinda and Theodora Palettes

Limited edition palettes are always interesting. Here we have two others that are worth checking out.  These are released by Urban Decay to accompany the Disney movie, Oz the Great and Powerful.  But this is not the only theme surrounding the two palettes. According to Urban Decay, while the brighter one of Glinda explores the good, Theodora’s darker version is more tied to bad.  It is all in fictional style. By the way, each box carries two liners for lips and eyes.

Eight Hour Cream Nourishing Lip Balms

These two are by Elizabeth Arden and not yet released. The first one in the container is called Intensive Lip Repair balm. It is for those lips that suffer from intense dryness. The tube version has sunscreen SPF 20 and all other ingredients we need to prevent our lips from getting chapped.

Rouge Eclat Lipsticks from Clarin’s Spring Collection

They are encrypted with the fact that they are the first age-defying lipsticks from Clarins. But they can be freely used by anyone looking to keep the lips nourished under the colors. According to most users, these lipsticks truly are moisturizing and long lasting. But what makes them unique is that they have mostly natural ingredients such as wax taken from mimosa plant, jojoba oil and cocoa butter.

Flower Kiss Velvet Lip Color

This is another new lipstick that is worth checking out. It is matte and thus perfect for casual wear. Available in nine colors, this lipstick is known to give volume to the lips. The most exciting news is that its price is below $8, but has got great reviews. 

Eve Pearl 5 Piece Signature Kit

Not many are aware of Eve Pearl. Well, its a company by celebrity makeup artist Eve. We can simply call her the doctor of makeup. She won 5 Emmies for her legendary skill. This one specific kit is like the pot of gold, for it contains her foundation, concealer, pressed power along with 24 non latex sponges. The spray bottle you are seeing is empty. Water has to be filled in it which then can be sprayed onto the sponge to be used to create effect on the skin with foundation. Eve's makeup products are great for sensitive skin.
