My love for the Laura Geller brand started with lipstick and quickly moved to the Exotique Face Illuminator in Impulse. So, I was excited when I got the chance to review the Baked Blush-Brighten in Ethereal Rose and Subtle Sateen Berry. It is perfect for fair to medium skin tones. You only need one swipe of your brush to get an instant glow. This dynamic duo is buildable for times when you want a little more. Both set beautifully on my face with the creamy but light texture playing nicely with my fine lines. My experience as a beauty editor has exposed me to a variety of products. On top of that, I’m a beauty junkie and a self-proclaimed shopaholic!! This multipurpose blush duo will become a part of my makeup routine. Tip: Use it on your eyelids for a quick pop of color.

As a beauty professional for the past 15 years, I have worked with many different beauty brands but I have not yet experienced Laura Gellar. This blush has great color payoff which is something I look for in powder product. It also has a beautiful sheen with tones of pearl, rose pinks and purples that would look great on a lot of different skin tones. This has a sateen texture and the the multi purpose duo is great because it allows you to combine the rose and the berry colors or just them individually. The mirror included in the inside of the packaging was also a great added bonus for those of us that have to glam on the run! I will be including this healthy glow blush in my makeup kit arsenal and will be recommending this to my clients and friends!

As a beauty expert & content creator for over 3 years and a professional makeup artist for over 5 years, I have been able to identify amazing quality makeup products and this is one of them! I love using this product on my cheeks to give my face some color. It is also very versatile and can be used on the eyes as well for a beautiful eyeshadow look. It blends beautifully on my cheeks and it gives the face a very beautiful and healthy look. It lasts long on my skin and it is a beautiful shade that will look compliment a variety of different skin tones. This will be an amazing addition to my makeup kit for my clients! I admit I can be pretty picky when it comes to certain blush shades, but this is a shade that I am definitely obsessed with and I can see myself using it for many years!

As a makeup consumer I have always enjoyed baked products as they glide into the skin very naturally, are quite buildable and have the ability to add moisture to change their consistency and pigment in a moment. As a makeup artist I tend to use these on body as they catch the Light beautifully and when used on a lightly tacky or damp skin they melt right into the face. I tend to not to use baked products right onto the skin without a little bit of moisture as they can catch the Light very easy on a photoshoot. This is a great combo for anybody looking for the right out of the sun look and these do great as eyeshadows. My top tip is to mix this with a water-based mixing medium to make into a cream or liquid eyeshadow and dusting a little bit of this powder on top of a lip gloss or bomb will create a beautiful naturally rosewood flush to the lips.

As a makeup artist of over a decade eyeshadow palettes are done a dozen but this is a perfect example of a core palette that anybody can use and that all makeup artist need a backup of in their set. This pallet contains so many natural colors with a formula that is great for many skin types and textures. For my neutrals I love them to blend into the skin naturally and emphasize the natural beauty of the model. For some they may think the pigments rather light here but for a everyday natural palette or an onset nude these are perfect colors. A majority of these colors are more matte and the ones that do contain some luster are very subtle and just catch the Light naturally to look more like you're going from within compared to having chunks of glitter on the eyes. I suggest this for all ages and skin tones from Fair to tan.

This palette is a really great palette for somebody who wants an easy every day eye look that’s not over complicated . With so many neutrals to choose from there’s quite a few one and done eyeshadow choices. From lavender to copper to taupe. There is good color pay off and it is Long wearing . You definitely need to swatch the colors on your hand first before applying because I found with several of the colors they look very very different on the skin than in the pan and that is not a bad thing...some I was pleasantly more surprised once I put it on my eyes. Especially the shimmer shades. As a makeup I will use this in my kit for when I’m going for a more natural look with earthy tones. There is some thing for everyone regardless of skin tone with this palette.

I enjoyed trying out this baked blush and brighten duo. I’ve always loved Laura‘s baked products. I love Laura’s story and what she stands for, she is a single mother and likes to make products for women in a realistic way. Her primer called “spackle” was the first product I ever purchased, Because who doesn’t want to take spackle to their face most days? Her baked formulas are very buttery and smooth and pleasant to use and this was no different. But for me personally this was not my color story, I am fair with yellow undertones and this for whatever reason came out very muddy on me which I believe is because of it’s purple undertones. I would try other colors for my personal use but for clients so this will be for more of a deep skin tone.

I really wanted to love this lip scrub however upon opening the entire contents fell out of the tube and onto the floor. I had to scrape off some of the product and then try to put back into the tube. So Needless to say I am not a fan of the packaging. The overall appearance is a sleek black tube that gives me 90s vibes which is not a bad thing. The lip product itself works as described, when you apply you can feel the sugar crystals doing their job exfoliating and I do like that you have the option of tissuing it off or just licking it off your lips as it is a sugar-based product, and being drenched with plant-based butters it leaves behind a hydrating balm eliminating the need to apply a second product. As a makeup artist it would be nice to have in my kit for on the go lip prep. As a consumer, I do not love that there is aspartame in a product that I can ingest. I stay away from any gum or mints that contain aspartame as it is a chemical that is not good for you in a regular basis. This will go in my kit however as a lip prep for brides.

Laura Geller Prep Stick Lip Scrub is an convenient way of exfoliating your lips. I do love lip scrubs and believe that everyone should have one. The fact that this come in a tube is amazingly mess free - as a make up artist I love it. This uses real sugar that gently exfoliates dead skin cells to leave soft lips behind. This has avocado oil ( heals chapped skin), jojoba oil (moisturize), grape seed oil (helps to hydrate), vitamin E (antioxidant), and shea butter (boosts moisture). Your lips should look amazing. I know mine does ! It says it is gentle to use everyday but I wouldn’t just because exfoliating can leave to over drying of any part of you skin. Don’t be alarmed if your lips are pinker, that’s just blow flow. I used this in a tiny circle motion along my lips and lip line for extra smoothness. I do try not to lick it off so I would use a damp tissue. I love to use this before a liquid matte/matte lipstick and gloss (I am sorry but I’ve seen some lips that gloss can’t fix) for that flawless finish. F.Y.I in this picture I used the lip scrub, and the palette, along with the bake blush duo.

Laura Geller is someone that created a line for older women and I’m glad of it. Laura Geller Baked Blush-n-Brighten Multipurpose Blush Duo - I haven’t had baked blusher in quite I bit but this one knocks some other brands out of the park. This blush is baked and because of this is so smooth and light weight, for me this didn’t go into the textured my clients face. Also long wearing. This formula includes white tea extract- which protects your skin from outside damage, jojoba oil - moisturizes and vitamin E - can reduce inflammation. As an makeup artist I do like to customize and this product has two different tones so you can blend and customize. This is not as light as it seems so calm down thinking that it might not suit someone with tan colored skin. I do love the glow and sculpted look that this blush give to my clients and myself. I would able this a little, a tiny bit above the apple of my clients cheeks with a brush and blend outwards into the hair line. I used to use my fingers for quick touch ups but with Covid sadly I can’t. But a little goes a long way so be careful. But the glow this gives- so pretty

Laura Geller started out on Broadway as a makeup artist back in the day so when she came out with something everyone wanted to check it out. This women knows what she is doing. And she did want to create something for women who were a certain age. Laura Geller You’re A Natural! Multi- Finish Eyeshadow Pallette: Rose & Taupe collection is a palette that went right into my kit. This also features nylon 12 (microsphere) which gives its smooth texture. These are easy to use and blend. Also long-wearing and crease proof. This has 12 shades that range from matte to shimmers to metallics. The shades are soft and buttery and it’s great for my older clients which sometimes they do have sensitive eyes. My clients and I love that this palette can match with anything. This didn’t crease but I did use an eyeshadow primer. After the eye shadow I was use I light tone on the lid, a darker color on the crease and outer edge. Sometimes depends on the client then shimmer/metallic on the inner corners of the eyes. So pretty and natural. These are also fun to play around with because it seems that you can do no wrong. Laura focuses women over a certain age and that is amazing. This palette was effortless and it’s for everyday.

I have been wearing makeup all my life and as an esthetician for 18 years, I have always favored natural makeup color applications for my clients. This color palette by Laura Geller is one of the best ones that I have seen in a very long time. A lot of color palettes are marketed for the glam factor and high pigmented, deep theatrical application. Although Laura Geller has a long time history in theatrical makeup, she certainly does not take this approach to her eyeshadow palette. The 12 gorgeous neutral tones in this palette are remarkably flattering on every skin tone. The creamy, velvety texture is supreme for applying a single shade or blending multiple shades to add depth and shadow to the eye. I was able to mix multiple colors to get the desired shade that was flattering for my daytime style. I applied a liquid metallic color and decided that I didn't like that match my outfit. The best part was that I was able to apply a matte shade right over it. The metallic style was faded, yet the shade was still there which made the combination perfect! The rose and taupe colors are great for mixing and matching and you can't go wrong with any combination. PRO TIP 👁: Swipe a wet eyeliner brush into a shimmering or metallic shade and apply a single line across your upper lash line. You get a beautiful neutral eyeliner with a hint of shimmer and sparkle. I love this eyeshadow palette and have already recommended it to everyone I know in my mom groups. We love to get dressed up and look polished, but we also like to keep our style reserved and low maintenance. The Laura Geller You’re a Natural! Multi-Finish Eyeshadow Palette is a definite must-have for any makeup lover.
