Christie Brinkley started a makeup collection and it makes perfect sense. Photos and details in this post.
When I first heard that Christie Brinkley had started a makeup line, Christie Brinkley Authentic Beauty, my first thought was, “Oh, of course! That completely makes sense.” Because, have you seen the woman? She’s absolutely stunning. And I want to wear whatever she’s wearing.
Growing up in the 90’s, I watched Christie Brinkley dominate the fashion scene. She was a supermodel with a capital S. Truly, the woman glows, inside and out.
In addition to her extensive work as a model and actress (remember her role in National Lampoons Vacation as “the girl in the red Ferran?”), Christie Brinkley has also dedicated much of her time to being a human and animal rights activist.
Ok, maybe I can stop gushing now. But can you blame me? The woman is incredible, and she even commented on my silly little Instagram! Amazing.
And while it’s true that these products were sent over for me to try in exchange for my review, I’d have gushed about them anyway because they’re truly gorgeous products.
Let’s get down to reviewing them.
CHRISTIE BRINKLEY AUTHENTIC BEAUTY PRODUCT REVIEW
Packaging: Absolutely gorgeous and luxe in a mirrored rose gold hue
Colors: The shades seem to all live in the neutral range, making them universally flattering and easy to wear without ever being plain. These could easily translate from day to night with a vampy lip or elevated liner.
Quality: Affordable, yet high-quality basics
Ingredients: The lipstick is paraben-free; the eyeshadow palette and cheek color both contain a blend of antioxidant vitamins; Vitamin E and Vitamin C, an ingredient shown to clarify the skin
Price Range: About $14 – $28
Her Expert Tip: Christie Brinkley swears by this beauty tip – using two concealers: one that’s paler than your skin tone and one that’s slightly darker. Take the Christie Brinkley Authentic Beauty Secrets And Lines Under Eye Concealer in the lightest shade that compliments your skin and apply it to the inner crease of your eye and at the highest point under your brow. Using a darker concealer, apply under the eye and blend the two shades together resulting in total coverage that naturally enhances your eyes.
