While in San Diego for the CVS Beauty Club luncheon with the rest of the Beauty Board, I had a chance to check out Salma Hayek’s new CVS/Pharmacy exclusive line, Nuance. That was a little while back, so you might have already heard about this. Why didn’t I break the news earlier? Because I won’t ever recommend anything without testing it out on myself, first. I wanted to make sure I actually liked these products before even suggesting you try them out. Now, to be fair, this is a *huge* collection (over 100 products) and I’ve only tried out a fraction of those – so I can only attest to the quality of what I’ve sampled.
