Pout Gives Us One Last Thing to Smile About

Remember how I told you that Pout is shutting down?

Remember how I told you that Pout is shutting down? There's a silver lining to this cloud: If you shop online, you can score the collection for half-price.

Buuuuut.... there's a catch. Since the site is based in the United Kingdom, you'll have to pay for overseas shipping unless you live in Merry Olde England. It's £13.50, about $28—so if you want to order, I recommend going in with a few friends to divvy up that hefty cost. If you're a big Pout fan, stock up now, because it might be the last time you'll be able to do so.

Beauty Byte: Pout Cosmetics is Closing Down

Pout Cosmetics will be closing its doors at the end of the year.

Pout Cosmetics will be closing its doors at the end of the year. The fun, feminine playful and pink-packaged cosmetics company was founded in 2001 by three women: Anna Singh, Chantal Laren and Emily Cohen. Pout was bought nine months ago by venture capital group Crysallis.

The company was doing well in the UK and Europe, but US sales have been very weak. Since they weren't as profitable as hoped, the color (cosmetics) portion of the business will stop production. However, the fragrance, bath and body products will continue to stick around in retail stores.

If you're a fan of these cosmetics, you'll be pleased to find out that big sales are rumored to take place so that stockists can liquidate the line. So keep your eyes out for the chance to buy Pout products at a reduced price — which is nothing to pout about!

For the third installment of The Best Blushers For Your Skin Tone, let's take a closer look at appropriate blush colors for skin with yellow undertones. For this type of skin, corals and coppers are complimentary. You can either got for a matte shade, or wear something with a little bit of gold sparkle which will enhance your natural undertones.

Pout Coral Nymph/Bronze Siren Cream Cheek Duo ($22) is a cream duo that houses a coral shimmer blush on one side and and a golden shimmer bronzer on the other. This is a great double-duty compact that provides a sheer glowing and dewy, natural finish. The shades can be worn separately or blended together for a customized look.

Bellissima! Pout Bustier Bust Enhancing Cream

Pout Bustier Bust Enhancing Cream ($42) is a luxurious whipped cream made to firm the skin between and below your breasts.

Pout Bustier Bust Enhancing Cream ($42) is a luxurious whipped cream made to firm the skin between and below your breasts. It's a cleavage concoction, if you will—one that helps to retexturize, moisturize and firm your skin. It also has a soft subtle shimmer and a sensual, floral fragrance made from rose, geranium and ylang ylang.

The packaging is pretty, too. It's pale pink trimmed with black lace created to mimic the look of lingerie.

Use the cream smooth in morning and evening for 28 days (which is when you should start to see results). Apply with gentle strokes beginning with the skin right under your ta-tas and working your way in between and upwards toward your collarbones.

I haven't tried it yet, but I don't see how it can hurt. Plus, it's a great way to remember to do your breast exams. Ooh, or you could even have your partner apply the cream for you—nice!
