I put together this group of red lipsticks that I’ve accumulated to review some options for the ‘classic red lip.’ With so many shades and hues of reds available, I think anyone can find a red that suits their skin color. I’ve found that the best way to wear red is to pair it with […]
An effective eye area moisturizer, this one is geared particularly to moisturize the delicate skin of the eye area. Packaged in a small, opaque jar with a lid that screws on. The cream is thick to the touch, but easily melts into the skin and absorbs quickly – it will work great for those with […]
This powder blush has a very fine grained texture and stays on well, it provides a sheer glow to the face. Silicones give it a smooth application. Its silver case is packaged in a grey cloth pouch. The case’s lid opens to reveal a large mirror and the blush comes with a small, flat brush. […]
I’ve started using more Smashbox products lately due to the excellent color combinations they put together. I also like that this set is arranged to tailor to eye color. The Hazel Eyes palette contains a range of shades and tones. The three top colors are marked as the SOFT TRIO to create softer daytime looks. […]
The packaging for this product is novel. Each end of the tube holds a different shade of the color Coquette – one light and one dark. You press on one end to push the lipstick out the other side to use, and press it back in when done. The two lipsticks are pressurized to stay […]

This a customizable eyeshadow palette for four Urban Decay eyeshadows – it came with the color ROCK. The palette itself is metal with a large mirror inside and an attractive collage of gems on the front cover as well as the company’s tagline – beauty with an edge.

This is another Urban Decay customizable palette, that fits four eyeshadows – it came with the eyeshadow MELT (which is a light, warm beige with sheen).
