The New OPI Texas Collection Just Rode into Town!


There is always a scramble here when the new OPI Collections arrive. With lots of 'Ooo's and Ah'sss' coming from the depths of the packing boxes. We get the pre-launch information, but it's no substitute for having the bottle of trend-setting colour in your hand!

The new Texas Collection is proving just as popular as you would expect, but what is even more exciting is that this collection appears to be all about texture and there is something for everyone. Featured first in the Texas Collection OPI reveals a new special finish – semi-transparent sorbet shades, lacquers which give fingers and toes a lightly glossed appearance. Unlike thicker creams or light sheers, these twelve shades are slightly translucent, similar to the look of icy, water-based sorbet!
Choose from :
San Tan-tonio A “honey” of a ten-gallon tan!
Suzi Loves Cowboys But she loves this campfire chocolate shade s’more!
It's Totally Fort Worth It A shimmery lavender grey that’s so worthy of you.
Don't Mess with OPI A lean, mean, kick-grass forest green.
Austin-tatious Turquoise Cowgirls love this bodacious blue-green.
I Vant to Be A-Lone Star You won’t want to share this starry Texas-sky blue.
Y'all Come Back Ya Hear? This Texas tangerine will be waitin’ for ya!

Too Hot Pink to Hold 'Em A red-hot pink-red that deals a winning hand.
Do You Think I'm Tex-y? A “berry” sexy bloom of Dallas dahlia.

New from Dermalogica - Age Reversal Eye Complex

Meet Age Reversal Eye Compex, Dermalogica's new efficacious eye area treatment with Retinol, created to reverse and repair the multiple signs of eye ageing.

Wrinkles, commonly known as crow's feet are without a doubt the number one concern of skin ageing. However, additional concerns including puffiness, dark circles due to hyperpigmentation and skin sensitivity due to dehydration can intensify the signs of ageing around the eyes.

As the newest addition to the award-winning AGE Smart® system for complete skin health, Age Reversal Eye Complex helps reverse wrinkles around the eyes while bioactives synergistically help alleviate puffiness, minimise dark circles due to hyperpigmentation, and reduce skin sensitivity due to dehydration.

How Does It Work?
- Retinol helps minimize lines around delicate eye area; helps reverse photoaging and chronological aging of skin tissues.
- Exclusive AGE Smart® active ingredient complex helps prevent AGEs, inhibits MMP activity and quenches ROS (free radicals).
- Fights bags and under eye dark circles while strengthening bloodMature or prematurely-aging skin around the eye area.

How Do I Use It?
Start using alternate nights, for the first two weeks. As skin responds and increases tolerance, build up to using nightly. After cleansing, smooth and pat around the eye area working from the outer corner, inward.

Note from Donna : I have been using the Dermalogica AGE Reversal Eye Complex for around 3 weeks now, starting off using it alternate night for the first 2 weeks as recommended. I saw a difference in puffiness reduction in the first few days. I have now built up to every night. I can see a definite difference around my eye area - I love it!
