This week, I went back to the Sunday Riley counter at Barneys in Beverly Hills to pick up Good Genes after being very impressed with the effects of the sample packets I had been using for the past couple of weeks. I also bought a SR lip color (initially swatched here) in Mona Lisa which is delightful to wear.
In-depth reviews of both Good Genes and Mona Lisa as well as Juno and Cashmere SPF 30 are right around the corner, along with some backstage tips (the Sunday Riley line was recently used in the Helmut Lang and Victoria Beckham runway shows…) procured from SR Training and Event National Manager Valerie Plotnikova, who fortuitously happened to be at the counter when I arrived.

Hello Beauty Professor!
This comment is probably not specific to this post, but I wanted to say hello and tell you that I really enjoy your blog. I stumbled upon it several days ago after seeing Edward Bess post your review of his foundation on his Facebook page. Since then I have gone back through your previous posts. We are very similar in coloring, so it is great to see potential foundation matches. Also, we have the same taste in light pink/nude lipstick! I really look forward to reading more posts and seeing more of the products you feature!

Thanks so much for your comment, Kate! I am so glad that you found your way to my blog and am especially pleased to hear that you are enjoying reading it. It is lovely to hear that we have similar tastes and I will definitely keep generating the foundation swatches…my affinity for foundation has yielded an absurd collection!
Please continue reading and I'll look forward to your feedback…do spread the word about Beauty Professor if you feel so inclined : )
Have a wonderful weekend,
Beauty Professor
Ooh, you picked up Mona Lisa! I've been compulsively checking Barney's website for it since I first saw your post on the lipstick line. Would you consider posting a photo of you wearing it, or a lip swatch? Love your blog! 🙂
I definitely will be doing a swatch-heavy review of Mona Lisa in the VERY near future…in the meanwhile, I posted a pic of me wearing it on Twitter (http://twitter.com/beauteprofessor). Please follow and enjoy! Thanks so much for reading and have a wonderful week!
