New and Notable at Shoppers Drug Mart - L'Oréal, Revlon, Alway & Maybelline

L'Oréal Studio Secrets Professional - Secret No. 1 Magic Perfecting Base - 15ml - $17.49 - smoothes lines, hides pores, banishes imperfections for a unified flawless matte finish.  Suitable for all skin types.  Dermatologist tested and non-comedogenic.  I tried some on the back of my hand and the texture is super silky so I expect this will help makeup just glide on!  Stay tuned for my review coming soon!

Revlon PhotoReady Compact Makeup SPF 20 - $19.99 - in 8 shades - this reminds me of the Almay Nearly Naked compact - I haven't seen it around lately so I'm not sure if they still make it - but it has the same sort of touch screen.  I like that it has a high SPF and I also quite like the texture - of course the only tester they had was way too dark for me so I didn't try it anywhere except my hand - anyone tried this one and want to share your experience?

Almay One Coat Dial Up Mascara - $11.99 - Available in blackest black, balck and black-brown.  Has an adjustable dial that allows you to control the level of lash fullness with 3 settings:  1-full, 2-fuller, 3-fullest with an   Non-clumping, hypoallergenic and good for contact lens wearers. 

Maybelline EyeStudio Color Gleam Cream Eyeshadow - $12.49 - Available in 6 palettes:  Flash of Forest - gold/green/brown, Pedal to the Medal - gold/bronze/silver, Blue Freeze - light blue/electric blue/grey blue, Rose Revolution - taupe/rose/rose-brown, Purple Possibilities - gold-beige/purple/pink or Neutral Liaisons - beige/taupe/brown

It will be interesting to see how much staying power they have.  I always have a terrible time with cream eyeshadows creasing on me!

  3. Interesting new items! I'm looking forward to your review on the L'oreal base. The dial up mascara is intriguing too, to be able to control the level of lash fullness? I wonder how that works.

  4. The primer review will be coming next week! Not sure how that mascara would work - would love to hear from anyone who has tried it!

    Best, Lisamarie

  5. Just found your blog! I'm in the U.S. and I just today saw the Revlon Photoready compact makeup at CVS. How do you like it?

  6. Thankfully for my wallet I don't actually buy all the products that I talk about in the New and Notable posts! So I haven't tried it, but I did use the Alway one that seems to be the same kind of deal - it was okay but I did find it a bit thick for my taste.

  7. I absolutely love the Revlon PhotoReady Compact Makeup. It covers beautifully without being to thick or greasy. The problem is I think they quit selling it because I can't find it anywhere.
