First, she revealed the news. Then she teased the packaging. Now, Ashley Tisdale has shared images of the products in her Illuminate by Ashley Tisdale makeup collection, which is a collabo with BH Cosmetics. Granted, they're just photos, but now you can plan for which items you want to shop! I am thrilled to finally get a look at what she has been working on so diligently for all these months. It has been a steady and slow build up for fans of the actor and Haute Mess blogger, as Tisdale has been consistently feeding us details of her debut makeup line via her site and her Instagram. Her first collection is full of shimmery, wearable neutrals and hopefully this is just one of many seasons of makeup creations for Tisdale.
The products are inspired by Tisdale's adopted home state of California — she is originally from New Jersey but she is pretty much a tried and true Cali girl at this point. Cue the Katy Perry song.
The products include eye shadows and blushes in a palette, lip and cheek tints, and lip glosses. The shades in the palette totally remind me of a California sunset. Since sunset smoky eyes, which consist of browns, yellows, and oranges, have been a "thing," Tisdale's initial Illuminate collection will allow you to recreate that mesmerizing look.
Ready to see the products? You bet you are. They are amaze.
Absolutely gorgeous, right? The pinks, golds, and beiges are wearable with any skin tone. Nice work, Ash! The former High School Musical star is doing her best to create a viable lifestyle brand, with her blog and her makeup range. She is doing all the right things in all the right ways.
Here are the eye shadow and blush palettes. According to Tisdale on her blog, "The Beach Goddess palette (for the daytime) includes softer, nude shades, while the Night Goddess palette (for you night crawlers) contains darker, smokier shades." Oooh!
The Cheek and Lip Tints are multi-tasking stains. There is a real variety when it comes to colors.
The Lip Glosses are neutrals along with a few deeper and richer berry shades. I love that they pair with those tints. Everything is so beautiful and coordinated with the spring edition of the Illuminate by Ashley Tisdale line.
Now that you've seen the products, I am sure you are feverishly wondering when you can your hands (and your face) on them. Well, previously, the only intel we had was that the line is coming in the spring, which could mean anything from late March to mid-June.
Well, in the blog post in which she revealed the products, Tisdale stated that the collection is coming in May. She did not indicate a concrete, specific day, but at least we now know the exact month.
Tisdale also revealed that she chose to partner with BH Cosmetics since they are "industry vets and produce quality makeup at affordable prices. I really wanted to come out with a collection that was accessible; something that everyone could get their hands on, but still be just as good as high-end products."
I'm in!
