Coming of age in the 80’s like I did, it was hard not to see and want to be more like Christie Brinkley. The woman was everywhere! She graced over 200 magazine covers, most notably for fashion, beauty, and swimsuits. It comes as no surprise to me that at 63, Christie is still active in these industries. In February, Christie added prestige color cosmetics to her Authentic Beauty line and as fate would have it; I finally get to be more like Christie when I received some of her Authentic Beauty products to share with you today. I think they would make perfect Mother’s Day Gifts!

About Christie Brinkley Authentic Beauty Cheek Chic color and contour powder blush:
I received Christie’s Cheek Chic color and contour powder blush in THRILL. The packaging is luxe and so pretty in Rose Gold, but what I like best is this blush comes in a compact, mirrored case which fits perfectly in your hands. The powder is lightweight and feels nice on the skin. The color looks bronzy in the packaging, but when applied to your face you come away with a healthy glowing look. I like it!
About Christie Brinkley Authentic Beauty Strobe Show Natural Glow Stick Highlighter:
I’m not a huge highlighter user, but my teen daughter is. Not just on her, but on me as well. She loves doing different makeup styles and looks! Anytime she does my face for a special occasion, she uses a little highlighter on me. She was thrilled to see that I’d gotten Christie’s Strobe Show Natural Glow Stick Highlighter in CHAMPAGNE GLOW. When I saw the color, I thought, wow! It’s gold! I don’t know if I’m a gold highlighter person. Again, I was pleasantly surprised. Applied lightly, your face just looks healthy! Like you are a well-rested, well-hydrated all American beauty with a Christie approved glow.
About Christie Brinkley Authentic Beauty Moisture Rich Lipstick:
Unlike highlighters, I LOVE lipsticks, especially a nice moisturizing one in a perfect pink nude. That’s just what I found with Christie’s Authentic Beauty Moisture Rich Lipstick in CHARM. This lipstick goes on like a dream, so smooth with zero pull or dryness! Charm is a fantastic color! I think it will be universally flattering to most skin tones. This will be my go-to lipstick this spring! A perfect Mother’s Day gift to myself!
The Take Away:

Since we shop with our eyes first, I have to say again how much I truly love the color on the packaging of the authentic beauty line. It looks pretty on the counter or in your makeup bag. Another plus of this line is it has no scent. While I saw no claim to being fragrance-free on the packaging or on the website, I was happy to not be able to smell my cosmetics while wearing them. For scent sensitive people this will be a huge plus.
Another plus is the price of this line! Prices range from $14 for the concealer to $28 for the foundation which is highly affordable for this caliber of makeup.
I invite you to learn more about the products I’ve shared today and the whole collection of Christie Brinkley Authentic Beauty products here.
