FOILED AGAIN
Tokyo design sensation Ambush — comprised of Verbal, a musician/producer and Yoon, a graphic designer — have partnered with Shu Uemura Art of Beauty for a limited-edition collection which includes Eye Foil, 10 metal inspired colors that give eyes a foil-like texture. The oil-in-water formula glides on easily and the double polymer technology makes it long-wearing. Colors range from platinum to a limited-edition blue lapis. The Shu Uemura x Ambush Eye Foil costs $32 and is available online at shuuemura-usa.com.
HYDRATION HELP
Spending time in the Atlanta heat followed by squeaky clean showers can leave skin dry and dehydrated. Dehydrated skin needs moisture. Dermatologist recommended Aquation Gentle Moisturizing Cleanser, Moisturizing Cream, Daily Moisturizing Lotion and Hydrating Cleansing Bar contain hyaluronic acid and three ceramides to seal in moisture and help prevent water loss. Marine actives deliver long-lasting, continuous hydration that moves from the surface of skin to deeper layers. The lightweight formulas won’t stain clothing or clog pores. Even better, the products can be used on body and face. They cost $8 each and are available at Wal-Mart.
