     MAGIC HOUR golden light and warm, shimmering color “From the moment we released it, Moonglow became one of our hottest products. A quad bronzer that gives a golden glow to any part of the body. When we were looking for something special to do to celebrate our 20th anniversary, we couldn’t think of anything better than letting Moonglow be our inspiration. So that’s what you’ll find in our golden Magic Hour collection – products and shades that will send you over the moon.” The new MAGIC HOUR Collection from jane iredale – THE SKIN CARE MAKEUP® delivers enchanting spring makeup inspired by the iconic Moonglow Quad Bronzer, and bathes skin in that special light we see just at sunset. For lips, long-lasting new Lip Fixations in flirtatious coral and a flattering mauve; for face, a softly gilded In Touch highlighter; and for eyes, a trio of golds that show everyone in their best light. And, whether she likes her lines smudgy or precise our NEW Jelly Jars, inky gel eyeliners, let her define her eyes precisely as she pleases. The smooth texture of the new Jelly Jar Gel Eyeliner naturally creates the rich, captivating look of kohl, but without any chemicals or irritants, and waterproof effect with the combination of natural coconut oil and silicones. Available in Black and Brown and packaged in a compact pod, each Jelly Jar Gel Eyeliner provides long-wearing color that easily glides on with the Angle Eyeliner Brush designed to ensure precise application on the lash line. The PurePressed Eye Shadow Triple in Golden Girl creates golden lids that can be sultry or romantic, with three glimmering eye shadow shades that may be worn alone or together: a deep bronze, a shimmery dusty rose and a rich gold. Lip Fixation is a dual-ended lip stain and gloss that provides strong, long-lasting color and moisturizing shine to the lips. Packed with botanicals, the stain soothes and protects lips for comfortable, buildable coverage without feathering or drying. The gloss creates a luscious, shiny look while hydrating and imparting a delicious vanilla taste on lips. The new mauve shade, Compulsion, creates a subtle, sultry lip, while Craze takes coral to a gorgeous golden hue. Complete the look with In Touch Highlighter in Comfort. This luminizing, versatile, cream-to-powder highlighter blends easily to complement the wearer’s glowing complexion and may be used to highlight desired areas of the face such as the tops of cheekbones, brow bones and the bridge of the nose. It may also be used on the eyes as a lid primer or applied to the center of the lip for a fuller lip look. Items are sold separately and will be available beginning in March 2014 at shop.janeiredale.com and select skin care specialists and beauty apothecaries worldwide. Lip Fixation in Compulsion or Craze $30 Jelly Jar Gel Eyeliner in Black or Brown $28 Angle Eyeliner Brush $15.50 PurePressed Eye Shadow Triple in Golden Girl $28 In Touch Highlighter in Comfort $28. #MagicHour @JaneIredale
