Susan Posnick Review + Giveaway

After an exciting and distinguished career painting the faces of models and celebrities like Cindy Crawford, Amber Valetta, Renee Russo, and Diane Lane, professional makeup artist Susan Posnick came face to face with a new challenge— skin cancer. Susan set aside the majority of her work in the film and fashion industry, and changed her focus to developing an innovative product offering substantial sun protection and healthy foundation coverage. Beginning with COLORFLO mineral foundation in 2002, Susan has since created a complete cosmetic line of multi–purpose face, lip, and eye products— essential for simple, modern beauty.


I recently got to try out some of Susan Posnick's fall collection, and it's quite amazing.

First up is the Color Me ($32) a delightfully easy-to-apply face color for cheeks, eyes, and anywhere else you desire lush blush. This travel-friendly makeup comes in a petite self-dispensing pot with an attached puff and mirror for easy application. I found this could be used as a blush or a bronzer. It has a slight pigment so you could even use it on your eyes. As you can see from the below pics, it has a mineral texture. You could even use this as a lip color, and then by sweeping a little lipgloss over, you have a perfect, beautiful lip look. This comes in many different colors, but I was quite happy with the Camelia.

I'm such a sucker for double sided lip products! The Color Forever ($24) works as a lip conditioner on one side, and a lipstick on the other. I love the size, and I love the tube. I have on "Mick" which looks like a deep red on the site, however it's more of a lighter color then expected. I also swatched the gloss and the color on my hand. The color looks much deeper on my palm, but i'm loving the look on my lips. The moisturizer smells very much like a delicious fruit, I can't figure out exactly which one, but it's good!

Next is always my favorite part, lipstick!! The Color Essential ($17) is a crucial part of the collection. Well, at least to me! The Color is South Beach. They also carry NYC, Dallas, Milan and Dubai. This lipstick is not chalky and is actually surprisingly moisturizing. It's formulated with vitamins A and E, so it leaves a great feeling on your lips. As you can tell, I've already put a good dent in it i've been using it so much. Check out my pics and swatch.

Let's next look at the Color Eye Define ($26) Another double sided product, woo hoo!a slender pencil comprised of an angled liner thin enough to define, yet soft enough to blend as a shadow. Accompanying the liner is a self-dispensing eye shadow created to complement the liner color. You can choose from many different color combos. I have Sapphire/Ametrine. So as you can see from the pics, one side is my liner, and it creates a great line for my eyelid. And then the other side is a beautiful eyeshadow. The two blend great together. No more sharpening that pencil or having to buy eyeshadow AND eyeliner. Now you can two in one!

Everything shown is part of the Susan Posnick Fall Collection. Here is the step by step guide on how to apply these products, and use them to look absolutely beautiful.

Final Thought: Usually I would not be drawn to the colors that I received in the Susan Posnick kit. But after trying them all out, I realized I liked them more then my usual comfort zone colors. Most reds and dark colors do not look good on me, which shows the quality of Susan Posnick. I'm giving Susan Posnick an A+ for fall makeup line. I'm left wanting more!
