Love Affair with Jouer Cosmetics

Today I want to introduce you to one of my favorite makeup brands (at least for eye makeup) that I feel isn't too well known. It's Jouer Cosmetics and it's fabulous! I recently discovered this brand thanks to Courtney Bingham-Sixx. When she got married, Entertainment Tonight aired a couple features on the wedding and one talked with her makeup artist, Troy Jensen, about her wedding day look. She looked gorgeous and I had to recreate the look. On Troy's Facebook page, he mentioned using Jouer Cosmetics so I instantly went on the hunt for this brand. I picked up a couple eye shadows and an eye definer pencil, which have all become my favorites! This brand is high end but I promise it won't break the bank like some other luxury brand cosmetics.

Let me start by talking about these velvety eye shadows. They run you $20 a shadow but they will last you forever! All you need is to put a little on your brush and it will cover your whole lid. No fall out and no need to layer on the shadow to get the pigmentation you want. It has great pigmentation and blends out so easily. One of my favorite things about these shadows is that they do not crease throughout the day! That's not a cute look on anyone. There are a ton of amazing colors to choose from and... I have a little tip for you. Jouer Cosmetics are also offered at Nordstrom. Jouer's website and Nordstrom's website have different eyeshadow colors to pick from. There are so many options!

Another one of my favorites is the eye definer pencil. This product has quickly become my every day staple! Now, if you are looking for a dark, opaque black liner, this is not for you! This product is a soft black, almost smokey color. It adds definition to the eye and makes lashes look thicker. You can tell you have liner on but it is not as harsh as liquid or gel liner. It's perfect for day time looks!

I have not tried any of Jouer's other products yet, but I wanted to introduce you to their shadows and definer pencil. It's a great brand and deserves more recognition than it gets.
