In a match made in beauty heaven, cult international beauty brand Smashbox is now available exclusively through Kit Cosmetics. After having a first-hand sneak peak at the latest clever Smashbox product range- we sense it will be nothing short of a smashing success amongst beauty fiends Australia wide.
For those of you not yet in-the-know, Smashbox is the by-product of Dean and Davis Factor (great grandsons of Max Factor). The brand was inspired by the Hollywood celebs and models that pass through Smashbox’s LA Photo studio.
In an effort to create cosmetics that would hold up under harsh studio lights; the boys set off to develop a range of clever products to create the perfect photo-ready canvas; and thus Smashbox Cosmetics was born.
Rescu. Recommends: Our fave products from the Smashbox range…
Prime time! Smashbox New Photo Finish Foundation Primer Light.
This silky-smooth foundation primer is oil-free and 60% water based, which makes it ideal for oily, acne-prone or sensitive skin. It’s packed with antioxidants and vitamins-which helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and pores. What we love most about this primer is its ability to make our foundation last all day! Yes, that’s right ladies- ALL DAY! It’s packed with oil-absorbers, which makes for a super-long lasting smooth matte finish. This clever formula also includes light diffusers to minimise imperfections, and Vitamin C and peptides to help even out skin tone and promote collagen production. All this and super-sleek packaging to boot!
RRP $52.95
Glow-baby-glow! O-Glow intuitive cheek colour
Another revolutionary offering from this cult cosmetic brand is the intuitive cheek colour. And by intuitive we mean this; upon application, this silky clear gel-like formula reacts with your own personal skin chemistry to develop into the shade you blush naturally. Clever much? It’s also packed with antioxidant ingredients like Goji Berry-C Complex, Gingko Biloba, and pomegranate seed and revitalising marine botanicals to help promote your own natural glow.
RRP $37.95
Read my lips: O-Gloss intuitive lip colour
Just like the O-Glow cheek colour, when applied to your lips O-Gloss reacts with your skin chemistry and transforms from clear into your very own perfect shade of pink. It’s also packed with all the same good-for-you ingredients as O-Glow, with the added bonus of moisturising avocado oil for extra shine. Gloss that’s good for you- we love it!
RRP $32.95
