I am continually thrilled by the consistently outstanding quality of the products made by Prestige Cosmetics, but their new Spring Total Intensity Collection takes this to a whole new level of excellence. Everything from this gorgeous collection boasts unbelievable color saturation, ultra-smooth application, and creamy dreamy textures. While Prestige is a drugstore brand, it truly rivals the quality of the most coveted luxury brands.
