As I told you yesterday, part of the new MAC Collection Colour Ready are these three new products that are now a permanent part of their Prep + Prime Collection.
Seriously, these are the star products of the line up and I cannot get enough of them.
I am particularly fancied with the Line Filler.
It has changed the way my face looks finished.
The way it fills in my lines is amazing.
The fact that I can use it over my makeup to blend away even more lines as they creep up during the day is just as brilliant.
Take a more in depth look at the latest Prep + Prime products.
Prep + Prime Skin Refined Zone
This product is a partial primer designed for use in the T Zone.
This lightweight, oil free, soy based emulsion instantly helps minimize visible pores while helping to control excess surface oil and shine.
Makeup Products employs High Tech Optics, an advanced technology powder and light diffusers to fill in lines.
The result: an invisible, natural looking, long lasting matte finish that also helps keep pores clean, clear and unclogged.
It mattifies and hides imperfections using advanced powders and microspheres while a Mannose Phosphate blend gently exfoliates away dead cells giving the skin a more youthful look and silica particles absorb oil.
In addition to immediately minimizing pore appearance and shine, 24% experience an increased luminosity and clarity of the skin.
Additionally, clinical tests show that over time, the Prep + Prime Skin Refined Zone reduces the appearance of clogged pores and shrinks the appearance of pores to nearly two thirds of its original size.
This favorite of mine is a targeted deep wrinkle filler with long term skincare benefits that uses a unique technological breakthrough.
Line Filler plumps and smoothes skin and drastically reduces the appearance of wrinkles and expression lines.
A combination of Gatuline Expression and Argireline work together to relax the appearance of facial tension and expression lines, as well as boost the skin natural collagen production.
Line Filler produces immediate results, but will also help eliminate the appearance of expression lines with continued use.
The product is designed to be used under or over makeup and can also be used to touch up throughout the day.
Prep + Prime Transparent Finishing Powder
This powder is not your usual translucent powder.
With a virtually invisible feather light, silky colorless application, the powder both reduces shine and maintains radiance due to a finely milled formula of corn starch, silica and micronized mica.
Though it was designed to set and stabilize makeup, it can also be worn alone over moisturizer for a natural and radiant complexion.
It was also a huge hit backstage during fashion week and was used at nearly every major show including Zac Posen, Badgley Mischka, Stella McCartney, Behnaz Sarafpour, Alberta Ferretti and Giles.
More reality TV coming to you
Chris Pizzello / APParis Hilton and a camera crew behind her wait for shooting to commence on the set of the reality show "Paris Hilton's My New BFF," in Beverly Hills, Calif., Monday, March 23, 2009.
Here's a new economic indicator: the diminishing level of glamour on Paris Hilton's reality TV show.
Contestants in season two of "Paris Hilton's My New BFF" are living in a mansion that costs half as much as the home the show rented last season.
Trips to New York and Tokyo are out this year, as the show's production budget has been cut 10 percent.
With the recession eating into advertising revenue at TV networks, a popular solution has emerged even cheaper reality TV.
Reality shows already were TV's low budget alternative.
And advertisers like how reality TV can give them inexpensive air time if they give the production free stuff and services.
Add it all up and a network can eke out a profit even if a reality show's audience is fairly small.
So in cheaper mac makeup , as Americans are clipping coupons, eating at home more and doing whatever it takes to cut their budgets, they can turn on their sets and find that TV is being frugal too.
There are more reality TV shows, and less elegant ones at that.
For instance, unlike the cool $1 million available to the last contestant of CBS's "Survivor," the top queen of "RuPaul's Drag Race," which just finished on Viacom's Logo network, received a magazine photo spread, a role in two ad campaigns and $20,000 "courtesy of Absolut Vodka and MAC Cosmetics."
"There's just less money around," said Michael Hirschorn, co executive producer of the Paris Hilton show, as he sat outside its sun drenched set in a modernistic building overlooking the San Fernando Valley.
"The economy's a mess, so all of us have to work more efficiently.
We have a reality show that is 40 percent cheaper than this show that just got green lit."
MTV, which plans to air the new Hilton show this summer, is filling more air time with new reality series rather than reruns.
Even so, its programming costs are down 17 percent per half hour, said Tony DiSanto, head of programming at the Viacom Inc.
owned network.
One new show debuting next week on MTV, "College Life," even cut out the director and camera operators by distributing $500 handheld video cameras to freshman and sophomore students in Madison, Wis.
"Safe to say, it's probably 35 percent less expensive than a similar half hour of reality drama," DiSanto said.
and avoid the expense of scripted fare in that prime time slot.
At broadcast networks like ABC, NBC, CBS and The CW, 32 new reality shows have been ordered, are in production or are being developed, according to David Lyle, the president of Fox Reality Channel, who keeps a running count.
At the same time last year that number was 21.
At cable networks, there are 160 new shows in this state, compared with 109 last year.
mac makeup outlet ., which has ordered versions 19 and 20 of "Survivor," is developing projects based on arranged marriages, neighbors who compete against each other and an obstacle course trivia game.
The economics of reality shows benefit from cost saving "trade outs" from sponsors, like free helicopter rides, air travel and dinners at fancy restaurants.
And the shows are more malleable to advertisers who are pushing harder to integrate their brands directly into shows, as a way to get in front of consumers who can skip commercials with digital video recorders.
Garnier Fructis sponsors a beauty makeover segment on "American Idol Extra," and Charmin gives toilet paper to contestants in remote places on "Survivor."
Working those promotions into reality shows takes as little as a few months.
Meanwhile, product placements on scripted dramas often need a lead time of a year or longer.
On top of the lower production costs that reality shows enjoy, they also have tremendous long term earning potential.
While a scripted series can be lucrative if it completes three seasons so it can be resold for domestic reruns, in international markets and on DVD reality shows don't need to run as long before the rights to their underlying format, the basis of the show, can be sold overseas.
Some formats sell for millions of dollars.
It's why versions of "American Idol," whose format is owned by Bertelsmann AG's FremantleMedia, are all over the world, and why Ish Entertainment, creator of Hilton's show, licensed the format to ITV PLC to make "Paris Hilton's Best British Friend," which aired this year.
Part of the thrill of reality shows is seeing the unexpected and how the participants react.
Indeed, on the Beverly Hills set of the Hilton show, a minor incident erupts.
