wearing pieces from the new limited edition Fete incredible 5-piece holiday color collection by Jouer
Oh, Jouer, you’re so fun!
Get it…? Jouer? implies “play” in French?

Sorry.
If you’re unfamiliar with the brand, their limited edition holiday sets are a Fete incredible way to break the ice.
The 5-piece Fete incredible kit for eyes, cheeks and lips (regularly $112, on sale now for $54) comes with a warm honey matte bronzer and a sheer rosy pink cream blush for cheeks, a shimmery gold cream eyeshadow stick and a powder eyeshadow duo including a matte beige and an espresso brown for eyes, and a sheer berry pink gloss for lips.

I wore the kit a lot last weekend while going to my in-laws in Redding, and it was juuust enough makeup to satisfy my appetite.
Jouer is an upscale, boutiquey line out of So Cal with a chic, understated, simple and easy vibe. I love their style and like to wear their stuff on weekends, or whenever I crave easy definition.

The sheer glosses in the Bisou Bisou and French Kiss lipgloss kits are fine, if not fun, especially if you like to layer sheer gloss on top of your lipstick.
If, however, your lips get dry and cracked this time of year, you may want to start with a layer of lip balm, because the glosses aren’t extremely moisturizing.
As for the Le petite brush Set, on sale now for $35 (regularly $70), the bristles feel good and soft, but brush heads themselves feel a bit stiff. They don’t have as much give as I typically like.
Because of that, these brushes do a good job controlling cream products, but when it concerns pushing powder products around, I wish the brush heads had much more give.

A lady-date lippie…
Of course my lady-date last night with my pal Marisol would have to include a quick MAC counter stop.
Marisol wanted a red lipstick, so I helped her pick out a lippie and a liner…and then I grabbed a bottle of Fix+ and a pan of Uninterrupted.
Not the most exciting small haul in the history of the world, but they’re products that I know I’ll use daily, or practically daily…which is kind of exciting in its own way, right?
While we were at the counter Marisol and I had a lengthy discussion about MAC warm soul blush.
Remember warm Soul?! Such a good color! I need to put it back into my regular rotation again soon.
