Prescriptives Lustre Collection for Holiday 2009

by Jennifer Long-Levy

I was especialustre-collection-holiday-warmlly excited to check out Prescriptive Lustre Collection for Holiday 2009 because it’s the company’s last Christmas.  As we give Prescriptives a sad farewell, I’ll be happy to celebrate throughout the season by wearing their last holiday line.

I got to sample the eyeshadow quad, lip gloss, and shimmer cheek color all in the cool palette.  You can find the entire Prescriptives Lustre Collection for Holiday 2009 at Prescriptives.com or at your local Prescriptives counter.  There’s also a great palette of warm shades (pictured left) I want to check out!

coolquadThe Limited-Edition Lustre Baked Eye Color Quad in Cool
Eyes shimmer in lustrous color with four high-pigment pearlized shades from the limited-edition Lustre Baked Eye Color Quad in a Cool palette. Each eye shade is “baked” on a terracotta plate for a creamier texture and pure pearl finish. Wear each shade alone or blend together for a multi-dimensional jewel-toned eye look, I love how this quad has just the right amount of shimmer. The tone and texture is so rich, you can put on a lighter layer to make it work for day (or maybe for the office holiday party) or go with a richer layer for a great evening look.  $40

shimmer-cheek-colorLimited-Edition Lustre Shimmer Cheek Color
Limited-edition Lustre Shimmer Cheek Color gives skin a luminous, subtle shimmer and sheer hint of color with soft golden highlights. Infused with Vitamin E. Available in two shades: Warm and Cool. I sampled it in Cool and I love how well it goes with the eye color, and how the shimmer makes my face look so glamorous and luminous! You can do some cheekbone sculpting with this one, too – but don’t try to wear it for day.  It’s definitely a nighttime look.  Dermatologist-tested and Non-acnegenic. $24

Moonbeam Reflective Gloss in Ruby (Limited Edition)
Take lips to a whole new dimension of chic with Moonbeam Reflective Gloss. This revolutionary gloss utilizes new pigment technology that actually enhances light’s reflective qualities, creating a super shiny shimmering lip look without feeling sticky or tacky. Moisturizing properties condition, soothe and help heal dry, chapped lips. I tried it in Ruby, a shimmering limited edition color from the cool palette. The sheer, shimmery deep reddish-pink looks great on and it felt minty and refreshing. $17.50
