modern anniversary gifts

Feels silky smooth and offers a beautiful shade to keep me stylish all day long. I even wear it during the pandemic for myself...The matte finish of Rikugien makes it very "right now" and modern but the shade helps to keep it a classic. I also love the Dolce Vita and the more dimensional (pearly?)

What it does:

It gives a beautiful glow to the skin without looking like you poured oil and glitter on your face. ...I used it on my 66 year old mother for her & my dad's 40th anniversary photos, & it looked gorgeous.

I think the tool is very stylish and has some advanced features.
