Beauty Stat - For the beauty obsessed who demand the facts not fiction.

Faster than you can say fabulous, a summer-perfect look is yours with the new mark Costa Rica makeup collection. Vivid eyes and lips took pride of place on the Spring runways, making this destination-themed line right on the money. So check winter’s neutral eyes and lips at the door and try these high-voltage colors on for size.

Ocean Hues

We tested the Eye Exotics Ocean Hues eyeshadow trio ($6) and wow, did our eyes ever pop. We applied pink to the eyelid, pink and black in the crease, and blue as an eyeliner. The Jungle Love and Beach Babe trios are equally alluring options.

Beach Babe

Lip Lacquer ($6) comes in an array of saturated tropical colors such as Fever (red), Pop (pink), Thrill (brown), Wild (plum) and Rush (coral). Fragranced with energizing spearmint oil and loaded with conditioners, its high-shine formula made our lips look and feel full and lush.

Mosaic Cheek Color

We completed our look with Good Glowing Mosaic Cheek Color ($7). You can achieve a shimmery or gentle blush finish according to your mood with this ultra-smooth powder.

As for the bargain prices, talk about bang for the buck. The collection is available at meetmark.com  or through a mark representative.
