Having reviewed Stila’s Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner in Snow last year, I started using the same eyeliner in Carbon Black, too — as it made a precise line very easily and never smudged nor feathered and was also long-wearing. I could go thick or thin, and I loved the felt tip’s cool touch when applying the color on my upper lash line.

This year, everyone went mad-crazy over both the Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner and Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner ($20.00) in Turquoise, making it very …

Let me tell you what happened as I was perusing the aisles in my local drugstore… I happened upon these New Limited Edition Sugar Coat and Fuzzy Coat Nail Colors by Sally Hansen ($5.99 each). I stopped dead in my tracks. That’s what happened!

Have you heard? BeautyStat.com’ s Ron Robinson was quoted yet again (last mentioned here in Makeup Expiration Dates) in The New York Times this week for their story entitled ‘Promises From The Powder Room.’
The article talks about how powder foundations, pressed powders and the like have revolutionized their formulations to provide age-defying, acne-fighting, light-reflecting and many more positive skincare benefits.

From Clinique, introducing A Different Nail Enamel for Sensitive Skins ($16.00)! Launching any minute at Clinique counters nationwide, as well as online at www.clinique.com, will come 12 colors in their permanent collection (as well as 9 limited-edition shades).

I cannot believe the variety in both color and the fact that they are not only dermatologist-tested, but also ophthalmologist-tested and formulated for sensitive skins blew me away!

The facts are that a person touches their eyes on average 200x per day, so nail enamel could be considered a significant allergen as it comes …
