Pretty in pink: New must-have items from Mary Kay Canada
My favourite colour? Hands down it’s pink!
I always love when Mary Kay releases new items since they are usually things that I use often and the colours are typically ones that I would actually wear. The brand released their summer collection yesterday and it’s filled with so many amazing products that will have you glowing all summer long.
And of course it’s not just makeup that’s part of the seasonal lineup. Mary Kay also has skincare and accessories that will definitely come in handy as we celebrate the warmer weather.
First up is the limited-edition Mary Kay Pink Eye Quads (C$26 each), which are available in two different colour ways. These palettes, which each contain four complementary shades each, have been selected by Luis Casco, who celebrates his 25th anniversary as the Mary Kay global beauty ambassador. These quads are both very wearable and if you have blue or green eyes, it will really make them pop.
Both the warm and cool quad contain matte and shimmer finishes and are very soft, creamy, and blendable. I love wearing pink eyeshadow since I find it makes my eyes pop. These palettes do come in a magnet container and are designed to be added to a palette, but if you don’t have one of those already, Mary Kay also offers these to purchase.
Apply the new shadows with the Eye Blending Brush and Brush Organizer Bundle (C$29). This set includes a new blending brush and an organizer case. Although you can purchase the new brush separately, I do love that they have a set available which can store all your favourite brushes.
When it comes time to take off your makeup for the day, take a look at the Mary Kay Makeup Remover Rounds (C$16). Available in a set of five, these rounds are eco-friendly and can be washed up to 200 times.
These are 100 per cent polyester and comes in a washable mesh bag. I use these often since they are really efficient at removing makeup. You can pair them with your favourite makeup remover or toner and best part is, they cut down on waste and will save you money in the long run.
Mary Kay has also released a new product in their TimeWise line up. The TimeWise Moisture Renewing Softener (C$24) works to hydrate, soften, and prep skin so your other skincare products work and absorb better in the skin. This product infuses skin with moisture, restores skin’s natural balance, is suitable for sensitive skin, and is alcohol free.
For the body, Mary Kay has released a limited-edition body care duo that is designed to give you soft and fragrant skin. The Mary Kay Body Care Set in Sparkling Cherry (C$35) contains a body lotion and mist in the Sparkling Cherry scent, which is perfect for summer time. The top notes include black cherry, sparking mandarin, and pink rhubarb; middle notes have wild freesia, velvet gardenia petals, and magnolia blossom; and base notes include tonka bean absolute, Tahitian vanilla, and fresh musk.
For the lips, Mary Kay has released two limited-edition shades of their Unlimited Lip Gloss (C$18) where $1 from each purchase will go towards their Mary Kay Ash Charitable Foundation, which celebrates 20 years this year.
Available in two shades, Confident Pink and Hopeful Lilac, these glosses are non-sticky, non-tacky, feel lightweight, and contains Vitamins C and E. I’m typically not a huge gloss girl since I hate the feeling of stuff getting caught in the gloss, but these are actually pretty comfortable to wear and they do give off some nice colour so you can wear them alone or over top of lipstick.
These glosses are part of their Pink Changing Lives campaign, which runs until August 15, 2021, so definitely try to pick one up before then.
I’m really impressed with the new releases from Mary Kay for the summer and recommend picking up a few items from the collection. They also have released a really awesome picnic tote (C$25), which is a tote bag that fold out to a picnic mat, which I can tell you now, it’s already come in handy with the warmer weather. As well, 100 per cent of the proceeds from this tote go towards the Mary Kay Ash Foundation, which helps women and children in need.
Will you be picking up any items from Mary Kay’s new summer collection?
