Recently Awarded Allure’s ‘Reader’s Choice Award’ for 2008, Bobbi B’s gel eyeliner offers the precision of liquid liner and the ease of a gel-based formula. Once the color is on, it’s long-wearing and water resistant. I recently got a set from QVC that included Chocolate Shimmer Ink and Graphite Shimmer Ink. Using the small brush that’s incuded, you can create subtle to dramatic looks. I normally wear the brown during the day and the grayish-black at night. The shimmer is barely noticeable and the small pot will last forever!

Product Review – Chanel Mascara…

Recently I got the opportunity, thanks to Allure, to sample Chanel’s new mascara, EXCEPTIONNEL DE CHANEL. With it’s six-sided brush/comb wand, it’s claims are to give your lashes intense volume and curl with clump-free, smudge-proof separation.
Here is a pick of the before and after of my upper lashes after two coats.
As you can see, it definitely defined my lashes more and made them more visible, especially towards the outer corner of my eye. What I liked most about this mascara was that my lashes didn’t have that hard, stiff …

Great gloss with high shine and no sticky feel. One of it’s claims is that it ” creates the look of fuller, more voluptuous lips ” . Um, I’m not sure about all of that. You do “feel” the product as it tingles when you have it on, but my lips don’t look any fuller because of it. Aside from that, it’s a great gloss and a must try.
Available @ Sephora for $18 in 11 shades. My fav at the moment is Dolly, a muted plum shade.
They also have a …

Our favorite socialite, we love to hate, tried out MAC’s false eyelashes (No. 35) recently. I love them. I always thought she wore false eyelashes, but according to her, she only wears them at night when partying or out to events, not during the day. Which brings me to my small dilemma.
I’ve always wanted to try them, but felt like I would look silly rockin’ them on a daily basis. Night time, absolutely, but daytime, everyday? Like, how will I look when I just need to run to the store …

MASCARA of course….(PG thoughts ladies, PG!!)

Estée Lauder will launch TurboLash All Effects Motion Mascara on July 17th exclusively at Saks and will retail for $30. The gel formula composed of jellied water, olive oil and paraffin waxes vibrates at 125 micropulses per second. Their philosophy is that there IS “a relationship between vibration, length, volume, separation and curl.” Funny, I dont remember this in Physics class, but I will be sure to inquire on the 17th!

Soon following later this year, no specific date and price announced, will be …
