Elizabeth Arden Sunkissed Pearls Limited Edition Collection

The air is slowly starting to warm up, the sun is shining and I can detect the first buds of spring! Emerging from your winter cocoon calls for fresh, vibrant color and the Sunkissed Pearls Collection includes tantalizing new hues that are sure to compliment your wardrobe all summer long.

Juicy lip color is a must for the season but you may still need a rich layer of protection to keep dryness under control. The Gloss Trio hydrates and seals in moisture with a lightweight formula that dispenses effortlessly from cute squeeze tubes. The pigments apply creamy and non-sticky so you don't have to worry about your hair getting plastered to your lips and they hold up quite well as you go about your day.

The mouth-watering, lush new shades include: Berry Pearl, Pink Pearl (glittering baby pink) and Coral Pearl (sparkling peach-pink).

These playful glosses put the finishing touches on any summer look and they condition, soften and soothe with mango and shea butter. I love the beautiful simplicity of the shiny finish and the formula contains ingredients that make lips appear full and plump while supporting natural collagen. 

These sheer, brilliant shades glide on smoothly and can go from subtle and luminous to a brighter pearly finish. For those who tend to avoid glitter lip products you don’t have to shun these beauties because the particles are small and non-chunky so they make lips appear dazzling in the sun! The gloss also feels comfortable enough to replace lip balm so they definitely deserve an honorary place in your purse. The trio retails for $29.00 and is suitable for women of all ages.  

I talk a lot about glowing skin on my blog because I love shimmering-up, especially in the summer. This collection also includes a beautiful bronzer and highlighter compact called Sunkissed Pearls designed to give you an instant contoured glow. The powder includes two bronzer shades and one pearly pink hue to illuminate the face.

The highlight is very light and iridescent and due to the pink tinge it also gives you the flush of a blush. The bonzers are way too light for contouring or sculpting but since they contain a bit of shimmer I like to sweep my brush over all the shades and apply the color to the areas light would naturally touch my face.

Because the brown pigments blend undetectably and appear nude on my skin I would have preferred the lovely pink shimmer throughout the entire compact as it beautifully enhances the complexion. The texture blends seamlessly onto the skin with a soft, satiny consistency.

The trio also contains vitamin E to protect against environmental aggressors and visible signs of aging, argan oil + fatty acids to soften and moisturize and micro minerals that help scatter light and fade the look of fine lines and wrinkles. The compact retails for $48.00.

For a limited time you can get this collection at Shoppers Drug Mart, The Bay and London Drugs. I think the gloss trio makes a great gift, especially with Mother's Day around the corner!
