Make Up For Ever: Aqua Creams





Are you ready for the next big thing? Yes, I'm talking about the new Make Up For Ever Aqua Creams. If you are looking for makeup that is long lasting and waterproof, then you must get your hands on these bad boys. We're talking super stable makeup that will stay on once applied without budging or creasing. Its long staying power even allows for underwater use (without smearing!) and is also perfect for stage makeup and professional use. It can be applied with a brush or simply put on with your finger. They blend nicely and allow for the creation of "custom" shades through the mixing of the different colors available.

Me with the Lovely Dany Sanz

This past weekend I had the chance to meet Dany Sanz, the creative mind behind Make Up For Ever. She talked to us about the new Aqua Creams that she produced. Explaining the inspiration behind the new line, she told us that many people were requesting long lasting waterproof makeup, and since she had done the Aqua Pencils in the past, it was time for something bigger and better . She impressed upon us the extensive time and energy that went into creating this new product. She told us that everything had to be perfect. When she finally found the right chemist and the right formula she was finally able to introduce the Aqua creams to the public. Now when she says that these are waterproof she really means it! They were tried and tested by Dany herself. Aqua Creams stay on under any weather condition or circumstance and they are well adjusted in high heat temperatures. Aqua creams are a multi-purpose product that can be used on eyes, lips or cheeks. They can even be used for face paint or any other special effects. The key to this product is its formulation. This product is safe for any type of skin and there is a color out there for everyone (there are 21 shades!). If you want your Aqua Creams to last a long time, it is necessary to keep them tightly closed (because of the volatile oils in the product).

Make Up For Ever Aqua Creams are available now at Sephora and they retail for $22 each.
