Jouer, meaning “to play” in French, offers a range of lush cosmetics in linkable containers — to help you custom-create your own perfect makeup palette. But ingenious packaging aside, the true draw of Jouer is the wearability of its shades, formulated to blend with all complexions. Founder Christina Zilber started the line in 2004 to give women effortless, gimmick-free makeup, and the result is an ever-growing, 133-product collection that includes luminous face, eye, lip and cheek color, all made from natural botanicals and mineral-rich ingredients.



It’s fun to play with makeup, especially when it’s as pretty as these mineral-rich cosmetics from Jouer, which means “to play” in French. Choose among flattering blushes or get that special glow with Jouer’s luminizing tinted facial moisturizer, which is available in a range of shades to match your skin color. You’ll also have fun experimenting with summery eye-color and lip-color sets.

Red!

Whether we're talking about the flurry of red carpets significant of the season, the symbolic color of love (and Valentine's Day) or the hot trend of the glamourous red lip, one thing is for sure - red is the color that's meant to catch our eyes.

Many women don't feel comfortable wearing the red lip, or fear they're "doing it wrong". Jouer's Christina Zilber offers these easy solutions for achieving the perfect red lip, no matter the occasion.

Red Carpet Red
For a true dramatic red carpet look, Zilber created the Simone Hydrating Lipstick ($22) – a rich true red that should be worn for that glamorous holiday party or big night out. This hydrating lipstick is highly pigmented and creamy in texture. Definitely a statement maker!

Everyday Red
Love the trend but looking for a more subtle approach that fits your everyday lifestyle, Zilber recommended a gloss because it is more sheer; try the Riviera Moisturizing Lip Gloss ($20) – a true red with a light shimmer. Loaded with Vitamins A, C & E, Shea Butter, Jojoba Oil and Pomegranate Seed Oil to moisturize, soothe, nourish, rejuvenate and protect, the gloss keeps lips smooth, hydrated and lush with its sheer, shimmery true red flush.
