Caryl Baker Fall 2012 ‘Uptown Girl’ Collection

Posted on September 30, 2012March 30, 2020 by Elaine



          For Fall 2012, Caryl Baker Visage has launched an amazing new collection that they’ve dubbed ‘Uptown Girl’. The collection is supremely gorgeous, and inspired by Caryl Baker’s admiration for ‘hardworking, strong, independent women’. Motivated by city life, Carol Baker presents three different colour palettes and choices for the everyday woman:
  • After Hours
  • Power Lunch
  • Midtown Morning

The Caryl Baker Visage Midtown Morning Line
            
          I was lucky enough to try out the Midtown Morning line. This colour palette might be my favourite of the three. The colours are perfect for the office – they add a little pop of colour to your day, and they are easy enough to play up for nighttime. Here’s a breakdown of the items below.
Eye Shadow ($17.50 CAN): The three colour choices are ‘Gingerbread Latte’, ‘Check Please’, and ‘In Transit’. Gingerbread Latte is a beautiful gold-shimmer colour, while the other two are gorgeous purples, one with a hit of shimmer (Check Please) while the other is a matte (In Transit).

Blush ($21.50 CAN): Called ‘Slept In’, that is a purple-based blush. It provides a ‘natural glow’ and matches perfectly with this colour palette.
Lipstick ($17.50 CAN): Called ‘Morning After’. I’m not sure what I’m more impressed with, the colour or the packaging of this lipstick. It comes with it’s own little mirror that pops up as soon as you pop off the lid. Carol Baker describes this colour as ‘innocent and fresh’ yet I think it’s the exact opposite. I think it’s a beautifully dark and lush look for the office or nighttime. It might by one of my favourite lipsticks because it glides on so smoothly.  
Lip Gloss ($19.50 CAN): Called ‘Rodeo Drive’. It’s a good match to the lipstick, in terms of colour. It’s perfectly sleek and shiny – in fact, its shininess was the first thing I noticed about this colour. On a side note, it smells absolutely divine! Again, it’s a good colour to wear alone to play up your lips.

Eyeliner ($17.50 CAN): Called ‘Occult’. My favourite product of the entire collection. The colour is extraordinary. It’s a deep purple, with a hint of shimmer that is gorgeous against blue eyes (or any eyes, for that matter). Also, the colour won’t budge. The colour is enough that you can ever wear it alone and it works. 

          Here are some swatches of the colours. Unfortunately, the Gingerbread Latte colour translates terribly to camera, but trust me, it’s a fantastic colour.

From Top to Bottom:
Occult Eyeliner, Morning After Lipstick, Rodeo Drive Lipgloss
Slept In Blush,
Gingerbread Latte, Check Please!, In Transit eyeshadows

            You can buy all of the above items individually, or Caryl Baker is offering consumers the ability to purchase each of the collections for only $69.50 each. That’s a total savings of $59.00, over buying it all individually! With Caryl Baker, you know that the quality and longevity of the products is there – you will definitely get your money’s worth with these.

  • I got Botox! (Technically, I got Nuceiva, which is a different brand of neuromodulator, but does the same thing) I’ve been feeling uncomfortable with the fine lines on my forehead, and wanted to try out neuromodulators! It was easier and much less painful than I anticipated, but definitely was a bit of an emotional journey. ➡️ I got 24 units during this visit, at a cost of $11 each. (Cost will vary depending on brand of neuromodulator, the clinic you choose, and the person who does the treatment) ➡️ This treatment will probably last around 3 months, and then will

  • Fresh nails for Spring! This was my first time getting a dip powder mani. It was so interesting! Apparently it’ll last about 3-4 weeks. I like that I didn’t have to cure the nails with a UV lamp, and that there was less filing than with biogel. I decided not to go with extensions today, but that’s an option as well. So far I’m a fan! Do you prefer shellac, bio-gel, dip, or natural nails? —————————————————————————— #torontobeautyreviews #mytbrfave #tbrcontributors #springmani #dippowdernails #dipmanicure #toronto #torontonails #torontopr #dipnails #nailinspo #bluenails #shortnails #opidippowder #organicnailbar #organicnailbarto #kingwest #freshnails #nailstagram #simplenails #nailsalon
