29 Cosmetics or Caudalie with Colour
Groovy grapeseed make up with sophisticated, vintage colour selections. After several weeks in Asia, there was something relatively comforting about a product that lacked nano-ingredients.
YYC swept past their features counter at Neiman’s San Francisco and uncorked (heh, heh) a few choice items to experiment with in a Napa Valley kind of way.
Love their creamy bronze eyeliner…aka 29 ‘eye line maker’ in EPO4–’terroir’–formulated to be soft enough to glide along the lash line without tugging at your eyelids.
The ‘29′ representative, Dayna, was on hand and very knowledgeable (as is not always the case) about her products; she even volunteered to create some samples of foundation for me to try. Thank you!!
I also loved their limited edition highlighting creme blusher in Napa Rouge. WWCC801 (there’s a whimsical name for you)
Check it out. Call NM SF (ask for Erin or Dayna) at 29 Cosmetics - 415-362-3900 x 2122 or toll free 877-634-6264

Getting into the post-holiday stride…I’ve never seen this line before! I must say, I like the route number on the packaging and the color names are fun and they look wearable. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

is this company out of business now or just getting high eating their products. No one ever answers me when I try to contact them.
