I recently had heard that CVS was having a Buy 1 Get 1 Free on all of the New Salma Hayek Nuance Collection. I had been Eye Balling this collection for a little bit since I had heard it was geared more towards Latina Women and Complexion Tones. I figured what Better Deal than Buy 1 Get 1 Free Right?
I had gone to 1 CVS and The ENTIRE Display was Empty nothing left . I went to another and to my amazement they had quite a few items still left. The main Item I had wanted to try was the Tinted Moisturizer and Concealer.
Meaning of Nuance:( I sure had no Clue what it meant to be Completely Honest)
A Subtle or Slight degree of difference, as in meaning, feeling, or tone: gradiation
Expression or appreciation of Subtle shades of Meaning, feeling , tone
Now not only does this line carry cosmetics , but has skincare, haircare, and body products.
I will say the pricing is a little on the pricey side for drugstore in my opinion. I think a lot is in the packaging and will show you what I mean in a bit.
Front & Center
Conealer & Brightener $10.99
Light/Medium (Top)
Medium ( Bottom)
Concealer is in Lipstick Form and Brightener in a Brush Pot on the Bottom
Medium Concealer and Brightener
Concealer is Pretty Decent Heavy Duty
Brightener is OK in my Opinion
Light/Medium Concealer & Brightener
I went with the light also because in the Winter I get pretty Pale so will help with my dark circles also.
Tinted Moisturizer in Medium $13.99
Note my Birthmark so it gives you an idea of Coverage
In my Honest Opinion not to thrilled with this Product. I mean I know its not a Foundation so wasn't looking for serious Coverage, but I still feel its a bit too sheer and a bit greasy for my face for some reason.
Translucent Finishing Powder $11.99
NOTE!!!!! This is more on the Darker side. It is True to Color meaning Leans definitely toward Medium to Darker Complexions! Im NC40 found this to be a tad darker for me.
Love this Packaging Mess Proof!
Flawless Coverage Mineral Foundation $13.99
Again a Little on the Darker side but I am able to work with it.
No Flash:
Flawless Mineral Cheek Trio $12.99
Looove These!
Left: Pink 290
Right: Spice 305
Color Vibrance Lipstick $9.99
Very Smooth and Creamy.
Buildable Color not too Overpowering in Color
Left: Terra Cotta 165
Right: Coral 135
Coral
Terra Cotta
Beautiful Blends Ey Quad in Smokey $8.49
Was shocked to see that this was cheaper than the foundations due to the unique packaging.
From the Eye Quad: Pearl Teal
From the Lip Quad: Mauve Berry
Overall I liked most of the products cosmetics wise.
Likes:
- Unique Packaging on all Items
- Fragrance Free and Paraben Free
- Items for more warmer tones
- Cheek Trios are Great for Blush, Bronzer, and Highlighting
- Eyeshadows unique packaging
Dislikes:
- Pricing is a bit up there for Drugstore
- Tinted Moisturizer was def a Miss for me :-(
- Eye Brightener in Concealer doesn't do too much for me
Would I purchase from this Line Again?
Yes but probably Lip and Cheek Products for the most part
Hope this was a helpful Review for all my gals that have been itching to try this line !
Let me know what you think!
I don't know what rock I had been living under that i had no clue she had a makeup line!! Definitely going to be on my makeup list thanks for sharing.

Great post!! Im glad u did this I know have a better idea of what I want to buy thanks:)
Oooh!!!! Now I want to try this line!!! Looks amazing!
I was really hoping someone would do a post on their products. Thanks! I think from the pigmentation and the price, there are way better drugstore products out there. I did like the lipsticks tho, but not much else.
wow thanks for sharing this! The eye quads are such a cool design. xoxo
The skin care line is really, really nice!!!
