CoolCanucks Blog Contest ~ Lit Cosmetics Review & Giveaway!!CLOSED
Friday, May 27th, 2011
These glitter cosmetics are truly amazing. I would reccommend them to anyone! I have owned other big brand name Glitter’s and none of them even come close compared to Lit cosmetics glitter. First of all the glitter is VERY pigmented, and they are very true to colour. This is what I seen in the package that I received. I was very excited!!
The Amazing thing about the Lit cosmetics Glitter Base is that it really does NOT allow the glitter to crease on your eyes. And It can also be used as a base for eyeshadows which is what I tried for a day and your eyeshadow lasts all day and night (until you take it off of course.) It enhances the colours of the eyeshadows, and I have also used it under my blush and it works with that as well! This is amazing! I love this stuff!! I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this to anyone who loves glitter and wants it to last all day long!
Lit cosmetics insists that with No Glitter there is No Glory!! Start your LIT experience off with one of their great kits that include everything you need to add some glitz your look right up! These natural, water-based products are alcohol, paraben and Propylene Glycol free. LIT Cosmetics are hypoallergenic and ideal for sensitive skin. This fun, exciting product is easy to use and suitable for everyone. Bring some sparkle to any party with LIT Cosmetics or put them on your giving list for someone special and deserving!
Lit Cosmetics glitter is amazing because unlike other glitter bases this one is completely organic, and when it’s on you don’t even feel the glitter is there. No sticky, itchy, fly everywhere mess. Best of all the patented water-based glitter base will last you for years. It’s a bang for your buck and a real definate “must have.” They have the best cosmetics out there by far! Also note: shipping is just $10 anywhere in the world!

HISTORY
The Birth of Lit Cosmetics
The idea for Lit has roots back in 2001 when Jodie Perks, the owner/inventor of Lit Cosmetics, was slinging drinks in the night clubs around Calgary. Having always been a fan of fun makeup and a little “bling, bling”, Jodie felt the need to be a little different from the rest of the girly girls serving up drinks. That’s when she hit on the idea of glitter eye makeup!
The basic concept was simple; sparkles give a look of optimum colour intensity and light reflection at all times of the day and into the night. Jodie had finally hit on a cool makeup to match her flashy personality!
After looking into the products on the market there was surprisingly no decent glitter eye shadows to be found, thus Jodie was forced to take matters into her own hands and began experimenting. Long hours and months of testing in her “top secret” basement lab evaluating the pros and cons of all other glitter products she exposed a number of flaws, the most obvious being the application process and the adhesive. With time and determination, Jodie developed a wonderful adhesive that holds, is comfortable and keeps the brilliant shine of the glitter, as well as a whole new application process for an exciting loose colour cosmetic line. Since 2001, Lit Cosmetics is now not only a bar-star product but has grown into a makeup that can be worn by anyone of any age at anytime—and that’s how Lit was born!
Why Lit is Different
“No glitter, no glory” is our motto—fun, yet true. Being in “glitterology” (the science of glitter) for 6 years we have improved glitter/loose colour makeup as it is sold in the market today. With our liquid adhesive now perfected, we have also broken down our pigments into 4 different sizes and 4 different varieties-Lit simply specializes in glitter/loose colour makeup. Remember: There are no rules when it comes to Lit! From a single colour highlighter to having 10 shades blended over your eyelids-we dare you… Let the fun begin, and your creativity soar!
What is the Vision of Lit Cosmetics?
Other than wanting to “glitter the world” it has always been our dream to change the way people perceive or think about glitter makeup. Our vision was to create a good quality, sexy new makeup line unlike any other that is fun, exciting, easy to use and suitable for everyone. Whether it’s a day at the office or a special night out, glitter is the perfect compliment to your look. Get noticed, get confident — get Lit!
A Note To Customers
Hello fellow Lit Chicks and we can’t forget about those Lit Dudes out there, it is now time to have fun and be creative with your make-up, accessories and fashion—to realize that girls do just want to have fun, as Cyndi Lauper preached to us in the 80’s. Life is way too short to be boring or to simply be bored. Don’t be one of those girls who says, “Oh, that looks great on her but I could never pull it off.” You know who you are, and there are a lot of you because I hear it every single day! So don’t be blocked by yourself, break though and be bold, be beautiful. This next bit of information may sound a little odd but it’s true, and all the present glitter girls of the world know this little secret and I believe in it as well: glitter is good for the soul. Something happens when you add a little glitter to your day. It gives you a smile, a good energy and just pumps you up and makes you feel glam, bam, thank you ma’am! So give Lit Cosmetics a try and enjoy everything you get out of it, like I have for the past 11 years! My final piece of advice for you is to stay young and try not to take things so seriously all the time, there is no age limit for glitter so you old gals like myself get it goin’ on and always remember, “no glitter, no glory!”

CoolCanucks Blog Contest – Vasanti Cosmetics Review & Giveaway!!CLOSED
Wednesday, February 16th, 2011
Did you ever look in the mirror in the morning and wonder who the face looking back at you really belongs to? Come on now, ‘fess up, somebody swapped their face with mine, when I was sleeping right? That CAN’T be me! That dreaded feeling that comes with age! UGH
With even the best facial care, age brings some lines and fine wrinkles to the skin. The disruption of smooth skin is accentuated by some cosmetics. Oh boy, do I know! My waste can has acquired more cosmetics in the last five years than my face has. When I was young, I could smear on just about anything and look great. These days the heavier foundations and eye shadows accentuate my every rumpled bit of skin. I’ve been made up by someone selling their wares, then gone home and washed my face and wondered why I looked 10 years younger when I removed their makeup! lol
I was ecstatic to be introduced to Vasanti Cosmetics, who had the perfect solution for me called Vasanti EYE WONDER triple action eye treatment cream! In just a week, you can noticeably see the fine lines disappear around my eyes which overwhelmed me! No other eye cream that I tried really worked, I’ve never really noticed a difference. I’ve been using their best eye cream and wow I am impressed with it!! The simple instructions tell you to appy twice a day for 36 days all around the eye area. This fabulous eye treatment cream has triple action against:
Under eye circles due to:
Overproduction of melanin, commonly known to be hereditary;
Poor blood circulation and breakage of the capillary walls;
Accumulation of hemoglobin and inflammation under the eyes; and
Thinning of the skin under the eyes.
Also fights wrinkles due to aging, sun damage, or poor elasticity
Works on puffiness under the eyes.
The results are amazing with each use! This eye cream is something that I now cannot live without!! You MUST try this and see for yourself!!
Vasanti Cosmetics also carries many different shades and colours of phenomenal lipstick! I was sent a gorgeous Ultra Luxe Lipstick with Peptide Technology in the shade called “Kenya” which is a rich plum mauve! I love the way it feels on my lips, and better yet — I love the way it looks!!
•You can wear this sheer or layer it for some drama
•Luxurious lip colour formulated to plump, hydrate and smooth with the latest in peptide technology
•Key Ingredient: Palmitoyl Oligopeptide — helps to increase lip volume, reduce the appearance of fines lines and smooths the lips surface.
•Clinical trials of this peptide show results within 28 days of use Ultra luxe formula loaded with anti-oxidant vitamins and botanicals
Vasanti Cosmetics also sells gorgeous shades of blush, eyeshadows, mascara’s, concealers, foundations, eyeliners, face powders — and the list honestly goes on!
Shopping on their website is a complete snap, as everything is so neatly categorized for you! Their customer service skills as well as delivery time were also beyond outstanding!!
