Bare Escentuals Radiance Rocks

When I first started wearing makeup, there were these little pots of all-in-one color available. One part hippie-chic, one part magic potion, the pretty little pots held powder in a single tone – rose, pink, gold, peach. They were ceramic and sealed with a cork. You’d pull the cork out and run a fluffy brush over the powder. The color could be used on checks, eyelids, or you could mix it with a small amount of clear gloss to form a lip color.

I loved that powder. I loved the big fluffy brush that I used with it.  That’s when I realized that makeup was fun, that the tools, the powders, the glosses – they were toys for big girls.

Bare Escentuals has a few fun new makeup products available. These products are available for a limited time and you can only find them at Sephora. They are packaged in bright shiny containers – an early holiday treat just for you.

The Radiance Rocks are very similar to the makeup pot idea. Three solid mineral rocks are in each case. They come in Bronze, Champagne, and a Warm Rose. Included in the package is a Kabuki Brush.

Three glistening bareMinerals Radiance Rocks are compressed together solely by water—resembling minerals in their most natural state. Simply swirl the Heavenly Kabuki Brush on top of rocks, and buff these gorgeous 100% pure bareMinerals shades on your eyes, cheeks, and body. The result is a glimmering, sheer wash of color with a refreshing, cooling sensation.

How you use the rocks is up to you. Try a single color alone or use your brush to swirl the colors together. After reading the reviews, I see that some people actually rub the rocks on their faces. When they dry, they can be “recharged” with water. The effect you get with this product is a sheer, glow. If you are looking for something more dramatic, then take a look at the Bare Escentuals All Over Color.
