What should you wear on your walk to the beach? Certainly not just your swimsuit and nothing else! *shock, gasp, horror* You need something more elaborate than that, something to cover up your nearly naked body until you arrive on the sand where it is acceptable. A "cover up" perhaps? Bingo!

Stila review: Perfecting concealer

Email thisPosted Jun 4th 2008 at 10:37AM by Kristen Seymour

Filed under: Cosmetics

The nice folks at Stila sent us some samples so we could try their products first hand. We spread the bounty across two bloggers, Kristen Seymour and Cat Lincoln, who will share their reactions with you this week.

Stila's Perfecting Concealer is a semi-matte concealer designed to hide "under eye circles, scars, redness, and other imperfections."

We were really excited to try this out because, even after getting a full night's sleep, we tend to have under eye circles, but now that we're no longer 18, some concealers and foundations end up making our smile lines (because we do not have wrinkles -- our face is simply used to smiling and being happy) more obvious.

At the risk of sounding a little bit nutso, we definitely think there is an art to packing the ultimate beach bag. If you can pack it up with essentials and still keep it light, then you've got the knack.

Why aren't you wearing this? Trina Turk 'Poppy' Cover-Up

Does the idea of strutting your stuff in a string bikini make you cringe? Some women get so concerned about wearing a bathing suit in public that they forget about the one item that should be at the top of their shopping lists for beach season -- a cute cover-up.

If you've got some extra bulges to hide, or just want to be modest, don't settle for an old tee and a pair of gym shorts -- treat yourself to a swimsuit cover-up that you truly love.

Got something to hide? Cover FX.

Ideal for covering scars, bruises, burns, tattoos, rashes and any other skin irregularity.

It was an evening in March 2008 (yesterday). I was acting in a show where my costume exposed my bare shoulders. I had recently been to yoga and attempted a pose I cannot pronounce or spell. It resulted in bruises; unsightly shoulder bruises and a good leg one, large enough to be seen by the audience. Cue panic.

After some asking around about what people use to cover tattoos and such, I discovered Cover FX at Sephora. I decided to head down to the Soho store and get some help.

The young lady who assisted me matched my skin tone perfectly to some cream foundation (pictured above). The color really is uncanny, and the feel of the makeup is surprisingly lightweight for being very close to opaque. Made from 100% healthy minerals, Cover FX covered up my bruises and made my skin look even smoother than it was in the first place! It even looks good close-up. I would use this on a night out to cover up leg scars, sunburn, and any other area of discolored skin.

I highly recommend Cover FX. I swear they're not paying me to write this. They saved my night.
