PERFECT SUMMER TO FALL TRANSITION MAKE-UP WITH #QUOCOSMETICS 2016 FALL COLLECTION
Of the number of great perks you receive when you work in the fashion and beauty industry, there are only a few things as exciting as being the first to know about product launches. Beauty launches, especially when the season changes or when the holidays fall upon us, always create that kind of ecstatic frenzy.
One stellar brand that is always on point when it comes to product launches is Shoppers Drug Mart’s own in-house Quo Cosmetics. When it comes to launching new make-up palettes and combo features, #QuoCosmetics is one brand to watch out for as checks off the holy trinity (in our opinion) in grading beauty and make up products. It is high quality, it does not break the bank and it is well-designed both in terms of colours and packaging.

#QUO2016 – FALL PERFECT MAKE-UP COLLECTION FROM SHOPPERS DRUG MART
I don’t know anyone who loves beauty, make-up and skincare but doesn’t love pretty packaging. When they say, ‘do not judge a book by its cover,’ obviously were not referring to gorgeous make-up packaging. This in-house brand, #QUOCosmetics, exclusively available at Shoppers Drug Mart and Pharmaprix, always produces such beautiful products from inside and outside at a price that will not force you to eat ramen for a week! Not that there’s anything wrong with ramen. I love ramen… but for a week!
The #QUOCOSMETICS’ #Fall 2016 Collection features 4 make-up products and makeup bag with a set of brushes. Here’s what you’ll fall in love with:
Brush Up! Makeup Brush Set ($50 CAD) < NOT IN THE PHOTOS >- A pretty set of stunning metallic purple brushes that comes with a matching bag. Includes a foundation brush, powder brush, blush brush, shadow brush, lip brush, and liner/brow brush. A perfect handy make-up kit to travel with!
Eye Shadow Palette in Neutral Ground
Eye Shadow Palette in Neutral Ground ($18 CAD) – This season’s palette features shades that are on the warm tones of stunning coppers and golds. The Quo palettes usually have a variation in quality with some shades performing beautifully while others are dry and less pigmented.
Face Palette in Perfectly Ordinary ($20 CAD)
Face Palette in Perfectly Ordinary ($20 CAD) – My personal favourite! A staple in Quo’s limited edition releases, the face palettes features 3 shades for contouring and highlighting the face. As alwats, the palette features 3 gorgeous powders; a setting powder, a shimmery bronzer, and a beautiful burgundy blush. All 3 shades are smooth to apply, made with great pigmentation and have warm, lovely shades.
Raise Your Brows Brow Palette ($12 CAD)
Raise Your Brows Brow Palette ($12 CAD) – Released every season, it includes a powder duo and a wax to set that you can indeed raise your brows beautifully with!
Matte Lipstick in ($14 CAD)
Matte Lipstick in ($14 CAD) – A true crowd FAVOURITE! #Quo’s lipstciks are always sold out and their new matte lipsticks do not disappoint. This particular shade is a gorgeous vibrant colour perfecrt for fall.
All #QUO2016 make-up and brushes are available at #ShoppersDrugMart and #Pharmaprix.
On the other hand, Montreal ‘appears’ to be more accessible by walking as long as you have got the proper footwear.
