Roxy's Picks

Second Skin Concealer - This is my personal concealer of choice right now.  I've been using it for about six months and am enjoying the fact that I apply it once in the morning and it stays put all day.  Great feature (and unique when it really works) for a concealer.  Professional-level coverage that’s customizable, comfortable and weightless. This high-performance formula conceals stubborn imperfections (even tattoos), while keeping complexions natural-looking with encapsulated pigment technology that re-creates the radiance of your own skin. Plus, it’s waterproof for a flawless look all day. Available in four easy to blend shades and retails for $29 a tube.



Full Exposure Mascara - Inspired by the on-set technique of layering a lengthening fiber mascara over a volumizing formula, the new studio-tested mascara exposes your longest, fullest lashes. No clumps, no flakes. Just maximum-impact, scene-stealing lashes. $19

• 104% increase in lash volume
• 32% increase in lash length
• 34-degree increase in lash curl

Limitless Lip Stain & Color Seal Balm - It’s a lip revelation! On one side of this innovative, two-in-one product: a feather-resistant stain that won’t budge for 8 hours. On the other: a very emollient balm that can be worn alone or over the stain for a lustrous touch. The vibrant tint of color is designed to mimic the look of photo gels on set in the famous Smashbox studios.  $23

Sneak Peek: Smashbox's Newest Summer Products Debuted on QVC Tomorrow!

See us on QVC! Sunday June 27th

QVC is a must do tomorrow afternoon! There, you'll be treated to a wonderful spot on Smashbox's hot, new products with tips and showcasing by the uber-talented Holly Mordini.

Here's your unbelievable sneak peek into the event with products and sets you won't be able to resist. Seriously! You really won't. Be able to resist.


Smashbox Features in Focus is a nine-piece collection that includes cult favorite products among beauty enthusiasts, as well as latest product innovations.

Every woman who may love some of her features but would like to "fall in love" with them all will benefit from this kit. And, every woman who wants the benefit of beautiful skin.

This collection introduces you to products that will have you falling head over heels with your new gorgeous eyes, your better-than-ever complexion, and your "you must have naturally blessed" lips.

Begin by using the Halo Hydrating Perfecting powder as your foundation. Simply twist the dial to release the fine, loose powder. Then, apply to your entire complexion using the baby Buki brush.

Using the luminous shade of the waterproof shadow liner duo, apply the color to your lid, from lash to crease and just into the contour area, using it as a radiant shadow.

Next, using the second shade in the duo, swirl brush #30 into the pot and apply under the bottom lashes, smudging from corner to corner to create a soft smoldering effect. This is not intended to deliver a crisp edge or a fine line. Follow this same method along the top lashes, beginning in the outer corner of the eye and working inward. Follow with a generous coat of Lash DNA mascara.

Using your finger or the unique silicon applicator, apply Lip Tech to both lips, pressing in the pigment. Use a lip liner if you wish to create a more defined pout. Wear Lip Tech alone for a more satin finish, or generously layer the lip enhancing gloss over Lip Tech.

Always leave blush for last so you won't run the risk of over-applying. Begin at the apple of the cheek, swirl brush in a circular motion, moving along the cheekbone.

Apply the Soft Lights powder to the bridge of your nose, above your brows, and along the top of your cheekbones. Use this skin-softening powder as an allover illuminator. Love it up on your shoulders and decollete.

Includes:
•0.75 oz Halo Hydrating Perfecting powder
•0.1 oz Lip Tech in Sangria, a deep wine
•0.398 oz Fusion Soft Lights in Gleam, beige and rose shades
•0.2 fl oz lip enhancing gloss in Lavish Lips, a nude pink
•0.1 oz waterproof shadow liner duo in Emphaseyes, a warm cinnamon and soft pink
•0.31 oz Lash DNA mascara in black
•0.07 oz blush in Blushing Pink, a shimmery pink
•Shadow liner brush #30
•Baby Buki brush

The collection is being offered at QVC for the unbelievable introductory price of $77.28 (retails $170) and is available with QVC Easy Pay for 3 payments of $25.76 for a limited time! You choose your foundation shade.


Now here's one of their new products that I'm drooling over. Smashbox Pro Second Skin Concealer is professional level coverage that's customizable, comfortable and weightless on the skin. It's also waterproof for flawless-looking skin all day.

The high performance formula conceals skin imperfections, including rosacea, hyper-pigmentation, freskles, extreme dark circles, tattoos, while the encapsulated pigment technology recreates the radiance of your own skin making it look completely natural. (available in fair, light, medium and dark) Exclusive to QVC.


New! Smashbox Waterproof Powder Eye Shadow Palette is a breakthrough in powder eye shadow. This absolutely amazing waterproof formula glides on smoothly and evenly for beautifully blendable color. includes five gorgeous shades and an application brush.


New! Smashbox Lip and Eye Beam Duo double duty products highlight, brighten and perfect instantly. Eye Beam's double-ended pencil highlightens and brightens eyes in one quick step, while Lip Beam adds fullness and shine to your lips. Includes both pencils - Eye Beam Double-Ended Brightener and Lip Beam Double-Ended Pout Perfector. I'm really excited about this duo as well. It's amazing what a difference an eye highlighting/brightening pencil makes in opening the eye, making you look more aware and rested. Looking forward to trying both of these sure to be faves!


Exclusive to QVC - Waterproof Shadow Liner in Lucky Penny (a beautiful bronzey-copper shade) and Brush #30 Set. This easy-to-apply shadow liner glides on smoothly and evenly and is totally waterproof and crease-resistant, giving you the power to create soft, smoky definition in one quick step. Wear it as a won't budge smudged liner or as a radiant all-over shadow. Apply with Smashbox's specially designed Shadow Liner Brush #30 for flawless application.

HAUTELOOK: Smashbox on SALE Today!



One of my absolute favorite cosmetics brands has come to HauteLook today to spoil you rotten!

Long before Smashbox Cosmetics was created, its founders, Dean & Davis Factor, were becoming legends as the ambassadors of style in Los Angeles.



It began when these brothers - two very unique entrepreneurs and the great-grandsons of makeup legend Max Factor - combined their talent & heritage to create Smashbox Photo Studios in 1991. With a slew of starlets passing through the Studios daily, Dean & Davis were frequently asked to create a makeup line that met the perfecting needs of a photo shoot. Dean & Davis decided to combine their skills - Dean, a business guru with an MBA, and Davis, a leading celebrity and fashion photographer - and in 1996 created Smashbox Cosmetics.



Today, Smashbox's state-of the-art facility is inundated with the most sought after artists, celebrities, models & photographers, and is also home to the celeb-studded Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Los Angeles. From Drew to Charlize, Gisele, Madonna & more, they’ve seen them all, and more importantly, swapped tips with their makeup artists. This means that they’re privy to insider beauty secrets & trends straight from the experts. And best of all? They share. At Smashbox, they believe that knowledge truly is a beautiful thing, and theirs is just too good to keep to themselves. From finding beauty solutions & quick fixes to demystifying makeup application, they're inspired daily to create innovative beauty products for women everywhere.

Matte Lips Right through Spring


Rachel McAdams and Scarlett Johansson

You know that matte lip look that won crowds over during the runway shows for Fall/Winter fashion week? Expect the trend to continue well into spring. Now, we're not talking about powdery, dry, chapped looking lips; this is a fresh, modern, approach to pretty lips with a modern edge, and oh so easy to achieve when you have the right product.


Lip Tech shades: Nude (creamy beige-y nude), Peony (rosy pink), Sangria (berry fuschia) and Maple (deep warm nude)

Enter Smashbox Lip Tech. Here's the scoop:
Lip Tech is a new weightless, satin-matte lip color that perfectly contours lips and comes in a mirrored compact with a unique silicone applicator. The formula contains Vitamin E and emollients to protect and provide a soft, cushiony feel. The silicone applicator is key to the application. Because it's not spongy, the product doesn't soak into the tip, allowing the ability to stack or layer lip color directly onto lips.




Spring runways were all about softly stained, satin-matte lips. In the short video above, Smashbox Lead Makeup Artist Lori Taylor shows us how to get this ultra-feminine, romantic look in just a few simple steps using Smashbox Lip Tech.

Free Eye Shadow Trio
Great Freebie! Smashbox has a special beauty offer going on now where shoppers receive this gorgeous ready-for-spring Eyeshadow Trio in Glow FREE with your online Smashbox order of $65 or more. Hurry, though, expires 2/15/10.




While you're checking out Lip Tech and other fab award-winning Smashbox products on their site, be sure to enter for a chance to win their Share the Love Sweepstakes partnering up with Lucky magazine. Smashbox and Lucky are giving away the ultimate swag bag, a Lucky VIP tote filled with $500 of Smashbox Cosmetics plus other goodies, to one winner and her BFF.




Smashbox Lip Tech retails for $24 and is available through Smashbox and other retailers.
