Every once in a while one of the drugstores roll out a product before a launch date, and I happened to be attracted to this display from Revlon immediately upon first sight!

 I had to know more about this colorful packaging of the Revlon Lash Potion Volume + Length Mascara by Grow Luscious  ($7.99). The wand looked different, and I also wasn’t used to seeing a full-colored wraparound label on a product (can you tell I am a VP of a marketing company, too? ). It all caught my eye — …

The new layout of the Revlon eyeshadows really grabbed my attention! Finally, cosmetic companies are getting it right by helping the consumer apply the shadows correctly. Revlon PhotoReady Primer, Shadow + Sparkle ($9.99) comes in the shape of an eye and has directions on the back to help you achieve your most glamorous look!
Bohemian

Impressionist

To give you the right balance with your shimmery eyeshadows, launching for Spring ’13 is the Colorstay Ultimate Suede Lipstick ($9.99). At first glance, these reminded me of the matte ones from back in my high school days.
However, I was wrong. They are elegantly packaged and click as you twist the bullet-like lipstick, so you never twist too high. There are two words that really best describe this whole collection: lightweight and comfortable.

This lightweight texture doesn’t rub off  and will conceal your flaws for up to 24-hours.
I really like the texture of this concealer. But, does it last for 24-hours? Well, I will be honest, I haven’t worn it that long; it did last through breakfast, lunch and a nap! So, …

My heart went pitter-patter as I opened a box containing EIGHTEEN double-sided polishes from Revlon! Thirty-six polishes were in my hands — endless, creative possibilities laid right before me!

Revlon celebrated its 80 year milestone with the introduction of Revlon Nail Art. Seen at most drugstores and mass retailers, I fell for Emma Stone wearing shade Emma on her nails — as that is my daughter’s name — plus, her nails looked amazing! First, I was introduced to Expressionist… then Moon Candy… then Neon… then the Frenchmix Collection and now Break-Up!
