Reebok PureMove Sports Bra -“Second Skin” Support for the Girls

Arianne January 8, 2019January 8, 2019

The thing about sports bras is that you KNOW you are wearing one. A lot of times they are just plain uncomfortable or totally lacking in the support department. Well, worry no more about low hanging, unsupported melons; because Reebok believes they have the perfect solution, the Reebok PureMove Sports Bra.

Reebok Pure Move Sports Bra -“Second Skin” Support for the Girls

So what is the big deal about this bra? Well in 2018 it was honored as one of the best sports bras on the market. So popular, Reebok is now offering it in additional colors such as the ‘Carotene colorway.’

Nevertheless, we repeat, what makes this bra so much better then other ones currently on the market? Reebok explains,

“Forty years after the first sports bra was invented, Reebok is changing the game with the release of PureMove. What makes PureMove so different? Designed to feel like a second skin, PureMove is comprised of just 7 pieces of flexible, breathable material.

There are no hooks, clasps, underwires or adjustable straps to get in your way. It simply slips on and into your everyday workout look with ease. PureMove is made with an innovative Motion Sense fabric that no other bra on the market has. Motion Sense technology treated fabric firms up more to support during heavy impact movements; and less during low impact movements.

Reebok was able to create a bra that offers an unprecedented amount of support. Minimizing bounce and maximizing stability during high intensity movements.”

Want to try out PureMove? It’s available now at reebok.com and retails for $60.

Morphe Fluidity Foundations -60 Shades of Foundation!

ArianneUpdated on January 2, 2019January 2, 2019

Rihanna… girl, look what you have started! Since the genesis of Fenty Beauty, several cosmetics companies have been hard at work in the lab developing foundations that more suitably match their consumer base. The first exciting foundation release of 2019; hands down is the Morphe Fluidity Foundation. A beauty product that boasts a jaw-dropping 60 different shades!

Morphe Fluidity Foundations -60 Shades of Foundation

No that is no typo. 60. 60 shades of foundation is on the table for us over at Morphe. The brand has been a tad bit cryptic, not really giving much away about all of this. Regarding their upcoming release Morphe simply reveals,

“Leave no tone unturned. Introducing Fluidity. 60 tone-empowering shades, for every babe. Launching 1.17.19.”

As one can see, Morphe isn’t trying to say much at all yet. Maybe they don’t want to oversell it; because of the wild success Fenty Beauty is still having. However, this foundation release is nothing to just brush off.

It is still another drop in the bucket that helps to improve the state of the beauty industry. For years, many skin tones have been ignored and now brands are finally waking up to the fact that light, medium and dark just won’t cut it.

One thing that we love so far about this product is that… well, actually there’s quite a bit to love. Besides the awesome range in colors, Fluidity is also:

Transfer Resistant
Longwear
Parabens Free
Water Resistant
Oil Free
Sweat Proof
Fragrance Free

Ugh… we stan Morphe, take our money already! Therefore, how much will Fluidity cost you? Get this… it’s UNDER $20! Yes, Morphe Fluidity Foundation will retail for just $18. 2019 is looking real real good!

Want a preview of the Fluidity’s tones? Watch the video below:

PSSST… there’s more… Morphe is also releasing concealer and powder shades! More on that later today so check back!

Maison Valentino Pre-Fall 2019 Fashion Show- See the Looks!

ArianneUpdated on November 27, 2018November 27, 2018

Falling roses, gorgeous models and deliciously vogue designs; elegantly make up the Maison Valentino Pre-Fall 2019 Fashion Show! The runway spectacular was presented in Tokyo, Japan at the infamous Warehouse TERRADA. A venue that nonstop holds galleries, markets as well as events in order to help support, as well as spread art and culture.

Our favorite pieces? Can’t say that one stood out among all the others; however, the color palette is beautiful! Red gowns (a signature color for Valentino) as far as the eye could see. Also, strong use of denim and two tone clothing.

Furthermore, one look that was super cute to us is an all-sweater ensemble. Actually, it is more so of a “cape” over a dress, but adorbs nonetheless. It is a cozy looking, woven masterpiece that stretches all the way down to the knees. With a stylish pair of boots you will easily and effortlessly look chic.

Other than a pretty cream, florals and sophisticated black looks complete the collection. Black tone clothing is great because the hue is timeless. Looks great on everyone and never really goes out of style or “trend.” Thus, making any black outfit pretty classic.

Maison Valentino Pre-Fall 2019 Fashion Show

Creative Director, Pierpalo Piccioli definitely put on quite the show. Regarding his presentation the humble designer simply stated via social, “Thank you everyone who made this dream come true. You know who you are.”

Nevertheless, the brand itself had a few more words on the subject. In regards to the highly anticipated show and its designs; the couture label explains it as,

“A dialogue between perfection and imperfection, permanence and caducity. Two ideas of beauty are compared: one strives for balance, symmetry, harmony; the other is asymmetrical, and favors what is impermanent.

Distant elements meet and merge in the interval that separates them; showing the gesture of clashing opposites instead of hiding it. The iconography of the Maison – the ruffles, the lace, the grace; and then the flowers, the colors, the motifs – is interpreted in a wabi sabi key.

Volumes are purified, ruffles are crushed, pleats are misaligned. Valentino Pre-Fall 2019 by Pierpalo Piccioli.”

What about the men? Well, still plenty of couture looks to love. The color scheme for the show was incorporated into all of the mens’ fashion too. We loved all of the long coats and relaxed suits. Relaxed we say? Yup, peep the untucked shirts. Ingenious Piccioli!

However, more on the men in our follow-up feature. Be sure to check it out in our Get Your Man Right series. Until then, check out more rouge looks from the show!

ArianneUpdated on November 15, 2018November 15, 2018

Model and accessories designer, Olay Noel, hit us with some serious beauty inspo! If you already didn’t see the need of adding the Fenty Beauty Killawatt in Trophy Wife to your makeup collection; this look should seriously give you a “golden” opportunity to change your mind!

Beauty Inspo: Fenty Beauty Killawatt in Trophy Wife Rocked by Olay Noel

Trophy Wife is an intense pigment that is multi-functional. For instance, we love all of the numerous ways Noel used her Killawatt product in her overall makeup look. We note:

As an eyebrow highlight.
An eyeshadow tone for her lids.
Used in the corner of her inner eye areas in order to help eyes appear more “awake.”
A highlight for her cheekbones, showcasing their exquisite structure.
Slight glittering effect within her lip color.
And perhaps our favorite… as a body glitter. Trophy Wife was lightly dusted along her neck, collarbone and décolletage to slightly enhance and emphasize.

As one can see, the right product can be used in many ways. Thus saving, you space in your beauty case as well as money. Regarding their Highlighter Fenty Beautys says you can, “Light up where you want, when you want. Unlike your everyday highlighter, Killawatt keeps skin lit beyond sundown with its weightless longwear formula. A cream-powder hybrid that instantly melts into skin and blends with almost zero effort.”

Sounds like a win to us. So then, stop sleeping on this amazing highlighter. We have used this product and highly recommend it for all skin tones. Plus, with one swipe you literally experience a gorgeous bold color finish! Yes, it is THAT pigmented. Therefore, get yours at www.fentybeauty.com; each one retails for $34.
