The Brow Benefits of Tweezerman for Benefit Beauty Tools

by 36 Comments

Do you remember my affair with Raul? What a terrible mistake… Obviously, we weren’t right for each other. He knew it; I knew it, but when it ended, Benefit was there for me. Like a trusted friend, they had my back (and my brows). 🙂

That’s because Benefit knows brows. Their kick-ass brow kits, Brow Bar services and new partnership with Tweezerman promise to keep millions of eyebrows out of trouble.

Tweezerman for Benefit

The new four-piece Tweezerman for Benefit collection offers tools to tweeze, shape and curl your way out of beastly brow/lash oblivion!

Are Milani’s Infinite Liquid Eye Liners Drugstore Duping MAC?

by 66 Comments

When it comes to long-lasting brush-on liquid liners, MAC’s Liquidlast Liners pretty much set the bar for me, combining rich color AND awesome extended wear time. Once I even left a swatch of it on the back of a hand, you know, to see how long it would last? No joke — TWO DAYS!

Yup, and that includes showering and washing my hands. 🙂

Liquidlast has rockin’ wear time and comes in a bunch of fun colors … but they’re not exactly cheap ($18.50 each).

New Dolce and Gabbana Makeup for Summer 2010: The Midnight Bloom Collection

by 35 Comments


Smooth Eyeshadow Quad in Fabulous, $59

What’s up, sunshines? I love spring and all, but I wouldn’t mind fast forwarding to summer, summer, summertime and the release of Dolce and Gabbana’s upcoming Midnight Bloom summer makeup collection.

Dolce & Gabbana doesn’t do drugstore, and this luxurious eight-piece release for eyes, lips, face and nails costs a pretty penny, but lovers of beachy greens, corals, pinks and blues might find it hard to resist.

I haven’t tracked down the exact release date yet (lemme know if you find it), but I’ll update you when I do.

Take a quick look at these promo picks, and holla at me in the comments if anything catches your eye. 🙂

Honey, Lancome’s Juicy Tubes Are Turning 10!

by 31 Comments

Good golly, where does the time go? I remember when Lancome’s Juicy Tubes were brand spankin’ new, yet now they’re turning 10.

10!

Lancome’s releasing a limited-edition collection of four glosses to celebrate the big one-oh, but they probably could have tweaked the name just a bit…

Are ya ready? Take a deep breath and say it with me. They’re called the Juicy Tubes 100% Natural Origins Ultra Shiny Lip Glosses.

Whew! What a mouthful. 🙂

“Hey, girl, have you tried those new Juicy Tubes 100% Natural Origins Ultra Shiny Lip Glosses?” Just rolls off the tongue, LOL!

Luckily, from the color I tried today, they taste damn good. This afternoon I wore Rose Pretty, a sheer reddish pink, and danced around my living room to Biggie’s Juicy… “It was all a dream, I used to read Word Up Magazine!” Could. Not. Stop. Licking. My. Lips.
