The IT Cosmetics New Year, Your Most Beautiful Skin! Five-Piece Collection was QVC’s Today’s Special Value on Monday, January 19, 2015.
It contains five brand new worldwide launches, taking the power of skin care and coverage innovation to a whole new level! The products are: CC+ Eye Color Correcting Full Coverage Cream, CC+ Color Correcting Full Coverage Cream Compact, CC+ Airbrush Perfecting Powder, Blurred Lines Smooth-Fill Lipstick, and the CC+ Angled Buffing Foundation Brush. Together, it’s your anti-aging skincare, SPF 50+ and full coverage for your most beautiful skin!
I was lucky enough to receive a sample of these products to review. Here’s what I think:
New! CC+® Eye Color Correcting Full Coverage Cream — helps conceal and hydrate the under eye area. It has a unique Cold Spoon Technology™ cooling tip which feels fantastic on tired, puffy eyes! It is formulated with hyaluronic acid, peptides, hydrolyzed collagen, silk and grape seed oil. It is full coverage, but a little goes a long way. I squeezed some out with the tip under my eye, and I got enough to cover my whole face! It looked, great, though!
New! CC+® Color Correcting Full Coverage Cream Compact is IT’s popular CC+ Cream in an innovative airless dispensing compact! With one push of a button, this compact releases a precise amount of CC+ cream, giving skin care, sun protection and full coverage with each application. This compact is easy and fun to use. Just press the button to dispense the cream and apply with a brush or fingers. It covers so well and feels great on my skin. And it has SPF 50!
New! CC+® Airbrush Perfecting Powder is a lightweight, hydrating powder that is formulated to help erase the look of fine lines and pores, leaving skin with the look of airbrushed perfection! Formulated talc-free and infused with hydrolyzed silk, hydrolyzed collagen, niacin and peptides, you can wear this powder over makeup or clean skin.It blends very well and really reduced the look of fine lines and pores. I use it over the CC Cream for work, when I want more coverage, but alone when I just need to look a little polished before I leave the house for errands.
New! Blurred Lines™ Smooth-Fill Lipstick helps lessen the look of lip lines and adds color to lips, giving a natural-looking, pretty pop of color. This lipstick is formulated with nourishing ingredients including shea butter, jojoba, grape seed extract, cherry oil and hyaluronic acid.It is very moisturized, but is such a pretty, natural color that will look great on all skin tones.
New! CC+® Angled Buffing Foundation Brush is an ultra-luxe, plush makeup brush that makes application simple and effortless. Custom-cut by hand and made with over 80,000 cruelty-free hairs, this brush flawlessly buffs makeup to help visually erase the look of pores and fine lines, airbrushing skin to perfection. This brush is so soft! It can be used for the CC cream and/or the powder. It’s very luxurious and apply makeup so smoothly. LOVE!

I received a sample of this collection for testing purposes. I have tried the Celebration Foundation and the brush before — its a really easy way to achieve flawless coverage and a lovely glow. Plus, IT Cosmetics brushes are my favorites, and this one is soft and applies the foundation well.
The eyeliner isn’t new, but I haven’t tried it before. I love that this is a black-brown. It is a deep color, but not as stark as black. I really like how this glides on easily and is very well-pigmented. The mascara is new and is WOW on my little lashes! Gives length and volume, it really looks like I have on false eyelashes.
The blush is also new. It is a really pretty pink. I applied it how it was suggested — you swirl your brush around the whole compact and sweep on cheeks, then use just the lightest color as a highlighter on the cheekbones. Really pretty!

Feel the Moment™ Anti-Aging Ultra Hydrating Sensory Awakening Primer Serum
Heavenly Luxe™ Sensory Sweeping Fan Brush
Celebration Foundation® Illumination
Heavenly Luxe™ Double Airbrush Foundation Brush
Eyelift In A Tube™ Bye Bye® Under Eye & Hello Light™ Liquid Brightener
This 5-piece collection, developed with plastic surgeons and infused with amazing, luxe ingredients, is your 30 seconds to full coverage and airbrushed illumination! IT truly works!
I was sent a sample of this collection for my honest review. I really love what this does to my skin! The primer serum is so different! You can apply it with the brush, but I like using my fingers. And it smells fantastic, a little like lavender.
Now, Bye Bye Under Eye is already my favorite concealer, but it usually comes in a tube. I love this combo with the highlighter and with the wand applicators. So good!
I like the normal Celebration Foundation, but it is a little too matte for me. This illumination is great. The shade I received is medium, and its a bit dark for my skin tone. But I can tell that it will give a more moisturized look and a great glow. The foundation brush is so soft and gives a flawless finish!
So, tune into QVC starting now or visit www.qvc.com to learn more about and purchase these new products. Enjoy!
Well, December snuck up on us, didn’t it? It is time for holiday parties of all kinds, from now until New Years.
Do you glam up your look at the holidays? It is the perfect season to try something dramatic like a red lip or dramatic eyes. Maybe just a little shimmer on your cheekbones or a glittery nail.
Here is a list of great new items to help you look fabulous this holiday season:

Put a Bow on It — magenta glitter
What I think: These are gorgeous polishes, perfect for party season. I am loving Just Be-Claws — sparkly rich red, Be Merry Be Bright is pretty over a lighter shade and There’s Snow One Like You is a cool texture polish that looks like snow on your nails. Fun!
