Bliss lightens up with Body Butter Lite
Bliss Body Butter Lite
Summer is the time to go light — with clothes, makeup and moisturizers. Bliss has introduced Body Butter Lite, a fast-absorbing formula that hydrates without the heaviness. It’s available in lemon-sage (Bliss’ signature scent that I love, love, love) and naked (unscented).
Here’s a tip from Bliss: Mix naked body butter with foundation to camouflage less than perfect parts.
Body Butter Lite costs $29 for 8.5 ounces. In Oklahoma City, find it at The MakeUp Bar and Sephora. For more information, go online to www.blissworld.com.

Kat Von D Tattoo Concealer is a heavy duty concealer available exclusively at Sephora. It costs $19 to $25, a cheap fix if you think about it.
Word is the creamy, blendable concealer gives instant coverage, is long-wearing and even makes blemishes, dark circles and imperfections invisible.

Lip gloss/eau de parfum combo
I love two-fers, either products that do double duty or one product with two different products in it.
Here’s one from Michael Kors Beauty: a limited edition signature eau de parfum rollerball/lip gloss wand.
On one end is Bare Vinyl, a sheer nude gloss that delivers gorgeous shimmer and shine. On the other end is Kors signature scent, a white floral fragrance the designer introduced in 2003.
Suggested price is $22, available at Sephora.
